Chapter 10 Chapter 10
Wen Shuo didn't know what was going on in Ren Li's little head all day, but her train of thought was quite strange.
W【I just want to ask you if you need any help with your homework】
Wen Shuo roughly guessed that Ren Li wasn't a good student, otherwise she wouldn't study so hard every day and rush home to do her homework on Saturdays. Instead of waiting for Ren Li to see the comments on Monday and ask him, it would be better to teach her now.
After seeing this, Ren Li finally understood. Wen Shuo wasn't asking her to copy his homework. And since he was a top student, he didn't need to look at other people's answers.
But why was Wen Shuo suddenly so "enthusiastic"? Ren Li couldn't understand.
Fortunately, she always remembered her main task, so she brought the topic back to the topic.
Ren Li [Not yet. By the way, I'll transfer the money to you.]
This time she didn't wait for Wen Shuo's reply and transferred the money directly.
Wen Shuo raised his eyebrows unconsciously after seeing the transfer message.
He didn't click to receive, and Ren Li lay on the bed, waiting a little anxiously.
Wen Shuo didn't lack the money, but he knew that Ren Li was serious. If he didn't accept it tonight, Ren Li would definitely argue with him all night.
Although one night sounds good too.
He finally clicked to collect the payment, and Ren Li's message came immediately.
Ren Li [Thank you]
Ren Li【I'm asleep】
Wen Shuo typed again:
W【You really don't want to check your homework answers with me?】
Ren Li put down her phone and picked it up again. She didn't know what kind of attraction the three words "correct answer" had to her, so that she would hesitate endlessly while holding her phone at eleven o'clock in the evening.
While doing her homework in the afternoon, Ren Li did encounter some difficult questions, especially those in math and physics. She pondered for a long time before finally scribbling down some answers. But those questions were always there. It was fine if she didn't mention them, but when she did, she felt a wave of anxiety and a sense of failure.
Although chatting with Wen Shuo for the first time was quite awkward, Ren Li felt that typing was indeed much more comfortable than chatting in person. In the end, her curiosity overcame everything. She quickly dug out the test paper from her bag, spread it out on the bed, quickly took a lot of photos, and then sent them to Wen Shuo.
Ren Li【want】
That should be enough, she thought.
Not long after the message was sent, Wen Shuo’s voice call came in.
In the sudden panic, Ren Li hung up the phone. It was late, her mother was next door, and she was sure someone would overhear her talking to a boy on the phone.
Not long after hanging up the voice call, Wen Shuo's message came.
W【Tomorrow】
Ren Li【What Tomorrow】
W【PAGEONE bookstore is not far from your home】
Ren Li was still a little confused. She wondered if Wen Shuo was being too terse when talking to her. She had passed by this bookstore a few times and had some impression of it; it looked quite large and spacious. But what did that have to do with Wen Shuo? Couldn't he just say everything at once?
Ren Li was holding her phone, feeling a little sleepy, so she planned to give Wen Shuo a few more chances to say a few words.
The phone vibrated.
W【Nothing, I'm going to the bookstore to buy books tomorrow】
W【I will send you the answer later】
Ren Li [Oh, okay]
W【Goodnight】
Ren Li [Well, good night]
The conversation ended quickly, and Ren Li was still a little uncomfortable. But today's mission was completed, so she turned off the desk lamp and went to bed quickly.
Elsewhere, when Wen Shuo came to his senses, he was already sitting back at his desk. He clicked on the picture sent by Ren Li, took a look, and finally pulled a pen from the pen holder, spread out his test paper, and started answering from the first question.
He wrote in great detail, with the best ideas and impeccable steps. These questions weren't difficult for him, but they took time. Time flies when one is immersed in the questions. By the time he finished the last question and put down his pen, it was almost two in the morning.
He rubbed his brows, stood up from the desk, looked at the test papers on the table, took out his cell phone, took pictures of the contents one by one, and sent them to Ren Li.
Although he was a little tired, Wen Shuo lay in bed, suffering from a rare insomnia.
He didn't know how Ren Li would react when she saw these photos tomorrow. Since her grades were poor, it was only natural that she should study harder. Thinking about this for a long time, Wen Shuo finally fell asleep.
When he woke up again, it was already bright outside. He got up as usual, dressed, and went to the bathroom to wash up. When he passed by the desk, he saw the test papers again.
If the evidence wasn't on the table, he wouldn't have believed that he would do such a thing last night.
He picked up his phone. It was half past ten in the morning. There were as many reminder notifications as usual. In addition to Zhou Qi, Cheng Yuhang and some other friends, he also saw messages from Ren Li.
The time was 4 hours ago, and the reply was only one sentence:
Pear [Thank you]
Wen Shuo looked at the sentence for a while and finally deleted it.
-
The weekend is over, and another long five days are coming.
Early Monday morning, Ren Li walked out of the house as usual and headed towards the school bus stop.
Having stayed up too late chatting with Zhang Xintong last night and getting up too early this morning, Ren Li made up her mind that she had to go to bed early today, and close her eyes in bed at least at 10 o'clock.
After waiting for a few minutes, the school bus arrived. The driver had already remembered the girl with a ponytail standing on the side of the road, so he stopped the car and opened the door.
This is the last stop of the school bus. Few people get on the bus here on weekdays, so Ren Li is often the only one riding here.
After she got in the car, she took a few steps and saw Wen Shuo.
Wen Shuo rarely rode the school bus in the mornings. He was sitting in the back, intently staring at his phone. He was still doing his own thing today—not wearing his school uniform.
Ren Li stopped, found a handrail in the middle of the carriage, and stood up with difficulty.
The phone in my pocket suddenly vibrated.
The car was shaking a bit, and Ren Li's position was not convenient for looking at her phone, so she ignored it. It was not until her phone continued to vibrate several times that she finally grabbed the railing and took out her phone with great effort.
On the light-colored lock screen wallpaper, Wen Shuo’s black profile picture is very conspicuous.
W【There is space behind】
W【Come and sit】
Ren Li looked up and saw Wen Shuo staring at her from a distance. There was no expression on his face, but his eyes felt a little hot when they met.
Ren Li knew that Wen Shuo wanted to give his seat to her, but in front of so many people, Ren Li didn't want to do that.
So she gently shook her head at Wen Shuo. She lowered her head and typed on her phone:
Ren Li [Thank you, I'll be there in a moment]
Wen Shuo frowned, "Do you want me to call you over?"
Ren Li:?
Before she could understand what this meant, Wen Shuo suddenly stood up from his seat. He made quite a noise, and the girls standing in front of him were involuntarily surprised and cast doubtful glances at him.
Ren Li now understood what Wen Shuo was trying to do. She didn't want to be the center of attention, so under Wen Shuo's gaze, she gritted her teeth and walked towards him, holding onto the railing.
That's true, there's nothing for him to be afraid of, Ren Li thought, why do I always act like I'm afraid of him.
Just as I was thinking about it, the driver braked suddenly again.
By the time Ren Li reacted, it was too late. The scene before her was like a slow-motion movie. The moment Ren Li fell, she was suddenly grabbed by a hand.
Wen Shuo's hands were very strong. He quickly grabbed her arm and prevented her from falling to the ground.
Wen Shuo let go of her arm and asked, "Does your cerebellum seem underdeveloped?"
Ren Li rubbed her arms. Her morning mood had been inexplicably ruined by Wen Shuo. She wasn't very good at arguing with others, and she didn't know how to retort during arguments. After organizing her words for a long time, she could only utter one word: "You..."
When Wen Shuo stood, he was a head taller than Ren Li. He looked down and saw Ren Li, who was silently angry with her eyes downcast. Whatever he wanted to say suddenly disappeared from his mind.
His Adam's apple rolled: "Next time I ask you to come over, just come over, don't ask so many whys."
Ren Li: “Why?”
Wen Shuo: "You're really in the way standing there. From now on, when I take the school bus in the morning, I'll give you my seat at the last stop."
Ren Li knew every word of this sentence, but when they were put together, she was a little confused. Although the two of them had met and chatted like normal friends on weekends, she still felt that things were moving a little too fast. Wen Shuo himself was not an enthusiastic person, so why did he suddenly remember to care about his classmates?
People around her began to turn their heads and look over here, and she finally sat down. She couldn't say it was voluntary, as she felt like she was being forced to sit there without knowing what was going on.
It's very uncomfortable, I might as well stand.
"It's not without conditions." Wen Shuo said slowly.
Ren Li looked up: "What conditions?"
Wen Shuo: "Let me think about it first, I'll owe you for now."
Ren Li: ...
She didn't want to talk to Wen Shuo anymore, but looking around, she felt like something was missing. She suddenly became curious: "That boy who's always with you, Cheng Yuhang, why didn't he take the school bus today?"
Originally, Ren Li just asked casually, but she didn't expect Wen Shuo's face to suddenly turn cold again.
Ren Li didn't know what she said wrong, so she just shut up and stopped talking.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Wen Shuo say, "Don't worry about him. He won't be taking the school bus recently."
