Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Born with this destiny
Pei Shuyu's spine tingled. The large blank space on the back of the test paper was shocking. She gripped the edge of the table and said in a much lower voice, "I did it carefully."
But she just couldn't do it, what could she do? Mathematics was something she couldn't write down even if she just wrote it down.
Thinking of this, Pei Shuyu felt an inexplicable surge of courage deep in her heart. She leaned her chin on Ji Yan's forearm with eager eyes and shook it coquettishly: "Ji Yan, I did it very seriously, but I really don't know how to do it."
She stretched out her tone: "I'm waiting for you to teach me~"
A layer of wrinkles appeared on the edge of the test paper. Ji Yan clenched her fingers expressionlessly, and the protruding joints turned a light white.
She freed her hand and took the draft paper in front of Pei Shuyu, her frown hiding her true thoughts.
Pei Shuyu saw Ji Yan's brows furrowed like a hill, and her heart began to beat violently. She thought Ji Yan was dissatisfied with her attitude towards the test, so she quickly sat up straight, folded her arms on the table, and acted like a good student, ready to be criticized. "I was wrong."
Although Pei Shuyu didn't think he was wrong.
The weight on her forearm suddenly lightened. Ji Yan turned her head away speechlessly. After a few seconds, she said, "Let's start with the multiple-choice questions. Besides the last four, what else do you not know?"
Pei Shuyu smiled and said, "I won't do anything wrong."
Ji Yan: "Are there any who guessed correctly?"
Pei Shuyu: "..."
Almost forgot this
Ji Yan picked up a piece of hard charcoal that had rolled to the corner and circled the wrong questions.
Pei Shuyu pointed to a question that wasn't circled, but that she guessed correctly: "I don't know this one either."
Ji Yan nodded: "Not bad, I know seven of the multiple-choice questions."
Pei Shuyu wanted to raise her head proudly, but then she remembered that the person next to her was not her deskmate of the same level, so she held back.
I'll show off to my desk mate during evening study tomorrow.
After finishing the five multiple-choice questions, Ji Yan pursed her lips and said, "Now let's look at the fill-in-the-blank questions."
Qi Ying, who was hiding in another group and peeking out, heard the voice and moved to sit in front of Pei Shuyu. He turned around and smiled flatteringly: "Ji Yan, take me with you."
She hadn't had time to finish her math test yet, and since Ji Yan was here, she might as well finish it and learn something.
Pei Shuyu said disdainfully: "I refuse. Do you think you can understand such a high-level question?"
Qi Ying rolled her eyes at her and said, "I don't know who scored two points lower than me in math on the opening exam."
Pei Shuyu snorted coldly.
Pei Shuyu found it funny when talking about this. She didn't know whether she was just unlucky or Qi Ying was just lucky. In that math test, she only got two multiple-choice questions right, while Qi Ying got ten right, which immediately brought her score up.
When Ji Yan saw her score, she wanted to say something but stopped herself.
Pei Shuyu understood the other person's feelings. For a contestant who had always scored above 145 points, it would be difficult for him to understand how someone could only score 40 or 50 points in math.
Even if you only do multiple-choice questions and fill-in-the-blank questions, you won't get that few points.
After a brief silence, Ji Yan asked her, "Did you misplace the answer sheet when filling it in?"
This was overheard by a teacher passing by, who said rudely, "Throw the answer sheet on the ground and step on it. It's not like you only got two questions right."
The past cannot be retrieved, and too many memories are painful.
"Okay, you two, look at the fill-in-the-blank questions." Ji Yan nipped the idea of a quarrel between the two in the bud.
They both stopped at the same time.
Since today was Saturday, there were only three evening study sessions, one less than usual. By the last evening study session, Ji Yan had already finished the second-to-last question.
"In this way, we can find the minimum and maximum values." Ji Yan pushed the draft paper with the detailed process written in front of the two people. Next to the process was a sharp but not messy deduction.
Qi Ying couldn't quite understand it. She looked left and right but couldn't figure out why he jumped from one step to another.
She raised her hand: "Ji Yan, this question..."
Ji Yan: "What's wrong?"
After Qi Ying raised her hand, she felt embarrassed to speak, so she shook her head to indicate that it was okay.
Ji Yan looked away.
Pei Shuyu held the pen and followed the process step by step, stopping when she reached a step that puzzled her just as much as Qi Ying.
Pei Shuyu put her other hand on the top of her head and scratched it quickly a few times. Her expression became more and more solemn. She pulled over the test paper to look at the given conditions, but she was still confused.
At this moment, a white arm stretched out, and the words on the draft paper moved farther and farther away from her.
It was Ji Yan's hand.
The girl turned to the next page of her draft paper: "I spoke a little too fast just now. Let me say it again."
Before the end of the evening self-study get out of class, Ji Yan went through all the questions except the last one on the test paper.
Ji Yan: "Is there anything else you don't understand?"
Pei Shuyu said confidently: "I feel like I can take the college entrance examination now."
Ji Yan: “…”
Sometimes she couldn't keep up with Pei Shuyu's train of thought.
Qi Ying didn't hear the multiple-choice questions at the beginning, but that didn't stop her from copying the answers directly: "I think so too."
With ten minutes left before evening study, Pei Shuyu contentedly tucked the test paper between her math textbooks. Lazily, she propped up her arms, yawned, and then, as if losing all strength in an instant, collapsed against Ji Yan. "I'm so sleepy, so sleepy. When will this kind of life end?"
Ji Yan straightened her waist, and Pei Shuyu used her as a human pillow, hugging her waist tightly and bumping his head against her shoulder.
The scent of orange permeated the air. Ji Yan held her breath. When Pei Shuyu's head fell, she placed her palm on the back of her head, letting her head rest against her neck. "Study session is almost over. Go back to sleep."
Pei Shuyu hummed, "I won't be sleepy after evening study."
The classroom had a natural hypnotic effect on her. Once she left the classroom, sleepiness instinctively left her.
The skin on Pei Shuyu's neck was a little hot. Ji Yan narrowed her eyes and gently pressed Pei Shuyu's scalp with her thumb inserted into her hair.
*
The dormitories of Class 1 and Class 10 are not on the same floor. Pei Shuyu lives on the third floor and Ji Yan lives on the second floor.
At the staircase connecting the second and third floors, Pei Shuyu stepped on the steps and leaned against the handrail: "I'm the only one in the dormitory tonight, come over and play for a while?"
Ji Yan placed his thumb on his index finger and rubbed it calmly: "No, I have to read after I take a shower."
Pei Shuyu was a little disappointed: "Okay."
After watching Pei Shuyu go upstairs, Ji Yan finally lowered her head. The wind outside was too weak to blow away too much of the air, but she could still smell Pei Shuyu's orange scent.
After returning to the dormitory and tidying himself up, Pei Shuyu collapsed comfortably on the bed, took out his cell phone and chatted in the class group.
Xiaoban: [Hey, isn't this a famous art academy? You're willing to come out? Tell us about your battle of wits and courage with the director and class sister today.]
Qi Ying: [No, I'm dying of laughter. I was behind the Academy of Fine Arts at the time and was terrified.]
Mr. Wang: [If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have gone home today. I missed a great show.]
Daxue: [Academy of Fine Arts, come out quickly. @Academy of Fine Arts.]
Because Pei Shuyu was determined to enter the Academy of Fine Arts, she was nicknamed "Academy of Fine Arts".
"Xiaoban" is the nickname of her deskmate Huayu. During a casual chat, Huayu mentioned the life in the kindergarten's Xiaoban class, and because she sometimes tied her shoulder-length hair on top of her head, she looked cute.
Other people's nicknames were also taken out for various reasons.
Pei Shuyu pressed the button several times quickly.
Academy of Fine Arts: [No battle of wits or courage, just luck. The notice was printed out and thrown into the trash by the class teacher.]
Xiaoban: [I guess Director Chen's face turned pale.]
Daxue: [Director: Don’t let me catch you next time.]
【……】
Mr. Wang: [Have you finished your homework?]
Small class: [No, I will write it during self-study tomorrow night.]
Academy of Fine Arts: [I have finished my math course.]
Qi Ying: [Finished writing as well.]
Daxue: [Let me borrow it tomorrow night. Thank you.]
Small class: [+1]
Following that, Pei Shuyu said, "Hey, no thanks." She then left the scene in style.
Feeling a little hungry, she went to her dormitory locker and took out a bucket of instant noodles. She rummaged around and found a sausage, then went to the water heater at the end of the corridor to get some hot water.
Picking up a plastic fork, Pei Shuyu glanced at the stairs leading to the second floor as she passed the third-floor entrance. Thinking about her dorm room, where she was alone, she went downstairs silently.
Pei Shuyu: [Is anyone in your dormitory?]
Ji Yan: [I’m alone.]
Pei Shuyu: [Are you hungry?]
Ji Yan: [Not hungry.]
Pei Shuyu: [Are you hungry?]
Ji Yan: […hungry.]
Pei Shuyu: [Open the door.]
The moment the dormitory door opened, a bucket of fragrant instant noodles appeared before my eyes.
Ji Yan took a half step back and took a closer look at the owner of the instant noodles.
Pei Shuyu put on a bright smile and said, "Please call me the God of Food."
Ji Yan: “…”
She moved aside to let Pei Shuyu enter.
The layout of their dormitory was similar. Pei Shuyu sat on Ji Yan's chair with ease and placed the instant noodles on the table.
Ji Yan wasn't hungry to begin with, but she ate two bites under Pei Shuyu's coercion and inducement: "Didn't you have enough tonight? I have some bread here."
Pei Shuyu stuffed a mouthful of instant noodles and said, "That's enough." She picked up a piece of broken ham with a fork and said, "Open your mouth."
Ji Yan was stunned for a moment. Her hair, which had just been washed, was still damp from not being blown dry. She came to her senses, picked up her fallen long hair, and bit one end of the sausage.
A little hot.
Pei Shuyu spotted a collection of test papers on the small table propped up on Ji Yan's bed. She swallowed a mouthful of instant noodles without chewing them a few times. The juice choked her throat and made her eyes tear up. She covered her neck and coughed continuously, "No, you're still doing test papers tonight?"
People who are better than you work harder than you. This was the first sentence that came to Pei Shuyu's mind.
Ji Yan bent down, frowned, and patted her back. Seeing that she had almost finished coughing, he handed her a glass of water: "Eat slowly, no one will snatch it from you."
Pei Shuyu shook her head, wiping away the tears. A circle of red lingered around her eyes and nose. She was already fair, and this redness was even more obvious.
With a feeling of brokenness and pity, he took the cup handed to him by Ji Yan, jokingly saying, "You are really born to study."
Ji Yan waited for her to finish drinking, then took back the cup and rubbed Pei Shuyu's eyes with her fingertips. "It's stained with water," she bent her lips. "Indeed, it's her destiny."
