"I guessed it based on your reaction. How did you know?" Ye Huaitang asked.
"I've seen him shoot, and I can confirm his technique." Lin Su said, "What's wrong?"
"You know it, but you don't tell your brother." Ye Huaitang glanced at him and said.
"Brothers are meant to be tricked." Lin Su laughed, "Don't you think it's interesting that they do this?"
Because of the strength of those two people, they basically won this time without doing anything. It was indeed quite interesting, but... Ye Huaitang said softly: "I am also your brother, why don't you cheat me?"
Lin Su's fingers moved rapidly, but his response was very direct: "How can you be like him?"
How is it different from him? Ye Huaitang wanted to ask this question, but in the end he swallowed the words back.
Premature love between men and women will only be criticized, but it is taboo for men to fall in love with each other. Even if the social atmosphere is open enough, men being with each other will still attract strange looks from others.
If he could be with him, he wouldn't care about other people's opinions. But what if Lin Su only had feelings for him like a brother? What if confessing his feelings would destroy their current situation and they wouldn't even be friends anymore? He couldn't bear the consequences of that.
Everything always has to have an ending. Either this person likes him, or this person just treats him as a brother, until he falls in love with a woman.
The former is of course a happy ending for everyone, but if it is the latter, they won't even have the chance to sit together like this.
"What do you want to say?" Lin Su looked at him and asked.
Ye Huaitang shook his head and said, "Nothing, I'm a little tired. Let's take a rest after this round."
"Well, let him stay up all night alone." Lin Su said with a smile.
Although they were best friends, the atmosphere at home was a little strange. It started in the morning when Lin Su handed Ye Huaitang a glass of milk. With just an unintentional touch of his fingers, the warm milk was almost fed to the earth along with the cup.
Lin Su barely managed to catch it, and looked at Ye Huaitang in surprise and asked, "Is it hot?"
"No." Ye Huaitang took it silently, "Sorry."
He was somewhat unconsciously avoiding Lin Su, but his eyes were unconsciously following him. However, every time Lin Su looked over, he sat upright as if he had never taken a peek.
[Host, the squad leader stole glances at you fifteen times in ten minutes.] 06 said, [According to system data analysis, he likes you. What do you think?]
"When he confesses, tell him that my feelings for him are purely brotherly, and I have no other improper thoughts." Lin Su said slowly.
06 Mechanical voice: [Host, please do not tease the system.]
[Pick an auspicious day to confess to him.] Lin Su said with a smile.
If the system can detect the abnormality, how could Lin Su not notice it? It’s just that confession requires thought and preparation.
If the confession is careless and without any atmosphere, the memory left in the impression will not be so good.
The weekend ended and the monthly exam results were announced quickly. It was normal for Ye Huaitang to return to first place. What shocked all the students and teachers was that Lin Su, the last-place student in Class 1, ranked third in the grade with a score of 725.
"Has the answer been leaked?" a classmate said.
"But we have surveillance cameras during the exams, right? Can't the school confirm this?"
"No way, even though he seems to be doing quite well recently, isn't it too much of an exaggeration to jump to third in the grade all of a sudden?"
"It's hard to imagine. Could it be that he really got the answer from somewhere?"
There were so many suspicions like this that even Ji Heng, upon seeing the results, subconsciously wondered if his brother had gotten the answers from somewhere, perhaps through hacking techniques... Shit, had he stolen the answers from school? But he was caught so easily, was he stupid?
Lin Su's admission to the school attracted the attention of all the sophomores, and the students were really hesitant and shocked.
"Is that him?"
"I don't know what's going on."
"No. 1 Middle School wouldn't let a poor student sit in the top spot just for money, right?"
"Who knows? Isn't Ji Heng's family richer? They even donated the building, but they still sit at the bottom of the list."
Ye Huaitang was a little confused at first, and was almost speechless when he saw Lin Su's results. He knew clearly that the person next to him would not bother to do such things as cheating. Yes or no, it is no, but this result was too outrageous.
Even if it was his real achievement, the fact that it surpassed almost everyone else in such a short period of time would make them feel psychologically unacceptable.
Ye Huaitang smiled and said, "You did well on the test."
Lin Su didn't care about the looks from his classmates. He just sat down and said, "The class monitor taught me well."
It is naturally easier for people around him to accept a gradual approach, but he is the one who wants to confess his feelings, and making people around him always worried is not what a good lover should do.
Ji Heng wanted to ask while sitting in his seat, but he was pressed down by a report card that still ranked him at the bottom, like a monkey under the Five Finger Mountain, unable to move.
Ning Qiu admired the report card and said, "521st place, so impressive! No one has surpassed me, whether in the positive or negative places."
"Then I, who am behind you, have surpassed you. It's the method of overtaking by fractions." Ji Heng sneered and resisted forcefully.
Ning Qiu couldn't help but stretched out her finger and poked Ji Heng's cheek: "Well, it's not that thick."
His action was so sudden. If any other boy dared to poke Ji Heng, he would have thrown him over his shoulder. But the way the elementary school bully stretched out his finger to poke him seemed so fucking cute, like a small, soft animal.
Shit, there's something wrong with his brain.
However, after having the first impression, when Ji Heng looked at Ning Qiu again, he always felt that they were a bit similar in every way. The cheeks were a bit chubby like his, the hands were a circle smaller than his, like that little paw, and even the eyes when he looked up at people were so dark and watery.
"Don't act cute." Ji Heng was very angry.
Ning Qiu looked puzzled: "Who is trying to be cute with you?!"
You are the one who acts cute, your whole family acts cute.
"Learn from your brothers. We're all brothers, and they're almost surpassing me." Ning Qiu snorted, "When the time comes, we'll all get into good universities, and you'll be left behind."
"If the teaching is not strict, the teacher is lazy..." Ji Heng said, "Didn't you see how seriously Ye Huaitang taught me? Have you ever taught me seriously? And you still say that."
By then, all three of them will get into good universities, leaving him alone. That would seem a bit miserable.
We agreed to be poor students together, but you secretly turned around and became a top student. Damn it.
Ning Qiu fell silent. Ji Heng asked softly, "Don't you suspect his grades are inflated?"
