Caught off guard, Lorraine almost fell over again, but fortunately, Tina caught him in time.
He couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh dear, Brother Lin, you're so careless! What if you fall? Didn't you get enough rest? If so, you can put your arm around my shoulder; that might be safer."
"Um, no need. Let's get straight to the point and go to your room."
"Brother Lin, are you in such a hurry?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Tina suddenly blushed slightly, feeling a little shy.
Why did Lorraine feel that her words had a hidden meaning?
However, he had no evidence.
As the two walked up the stairs intimately, Wu Tina's mother stood at the living room doorway, watching their backs with a smile and a meaningful look in her eyes, lost in thought.

Inside the girl's room.
"Brother Lin, I'm sorry to trouble you to come and study with me on Saturday."
"You've already gone to such lengths to ask me, how could I bear to refuse? I'll come no matter how busy I am."
"I'm sorry to have troubled you, Brother Lin."
The two sat down together in the room.
The low square table in the middle can accommodate four people; the space is just right, not too big or too small.
Wu Tina took out her schoolbag and placed her textbooks and some study materials on the table, and of course... that embarrassing test paper with a score of 28.
Lorraine picked it up curiously and examined it.
I couldn't help but sigh.
"I can't believe it," Wu Tina asked nervously.
"So even Brother Lin thinks I did terribly on the exam?"
"Tina, you only got 28 points. Isn't that a bad score enough?"
"Waaaah, I'm so sorry!"
"Alright, there's no use blaming you now. Exams are like war; winning and losing are common occurrences. It's okay to lose a battle; just learn from the experience, correct your mistakes, and strive to win everything next time."
"To be honest, I don't know much about Brother Lin's knowledge level. If Brother Lin were to take this test, it should be very easy, right?"
"I should be able to barely pass the test, right?"
"Huh? Wasn't it supposed to be 100 points?"
"I'm not the kind of academic genius."
"I see."
"What, disappointed?"
"No... actually, I feel a little relieved, hehe."
Why do you say that?
"Because the perfect Brother Lin makes people feel a sense of distance from him. I prefer the slightly clumsy Brother Lin to the flawless one."
"No one in the world is perfect. Everyone has things they're not good at, otherwise they wouldn't be human... they'd be gods."
"Then please guide me today, Brother Lin."
"Now that I'm here, you'd better be prepared today. If you don't study hard, don't blame me for punishing you."
"Haha, please be gentle."
Inside the cozy room.
The two smiled at each other, and for the first time, Wu Tina felt that... perhaps spending the whole weekend at home studying wasn't such a bad thing.
Um--
It turns out she had been studying the wrong way before. Now she'll definitely be able to calm down and focus on her studies.
Hmph, next time on the exam, won't he just get a perfect score of 100?
We've got this in the bag.
