Chapter 87 With your icy face, which girl could like you?
The exam is over.
As soon as the exam papers were delivered to the office, the teachers couldn't wait to step forward and single out Pei Jinwu's paper.
"Tsk."
The English teacher of Class 1 quickly marked red checkmarks, unable to hide the smile on her face: "As expected, another perfect score."
"etc--"
As she graded the last essay, the English teacher slowed down, her smile fading: "What kind of word is this?"
shangshiyan?
Is it a person's name or a place name?
It appeared out of nowhere, as if it was written unconsciously in a daze.
To my surprise, I misspelled a word at a crucial moment.
One point deducted.
While the English teacher was grading papers, many students waited outside to hear their scores.
"Not a perfect score, not a perfect score."
The student at the front heard the commotion and quickly reported it to the students behind him.
"Really?" The students breathed a sigh of relief. "We were so scared, we thought Pei Jinwu was a genius in all subjects."
"but--"
The student relaying the message paused for two seconds, then added, "Only one point was deducted, for a total of 149."
"The teacher said that the point deducted was because she carelessly misspelled a word. Otherwise, she would have gotten a perfect score."
149 points?
What's the difference between this and 150?
The students could no longer laugh.
"If she gets the science score, will her ranking surpass Zhao Qianqian and become the top student in the whole school?"
"Definitely."
"With her current grades, she could easily be first in the entire school, or even the entire province or the country."
"If Huagao produces a top scorer in the college entrance examination, will the school's operating license not be revoked next year?"
"..."
As soon as he finished speaking, people turned to look at him with surprise.
Don't say it.
You really shouldn't say that.
If Huagao produces the top scorer in the national exam, its reputation will soar.
——
At the school gate.
Pei Jinwu, carrying a schoolbag and wearing a hat, walked forward absentmindedly with droopy eyes.
"Miss Pei."
Upon seeing her, Feng Zhi immediately opened the car door.
"..."
Pei Jinwu raised her head and glanced into the car.
oh.
Nobody's here.
As expected, they didn't come.
"Miss Pei, please get in the car." Feng Zhi opened the car door and said with a grin.
"..."
Pei Jinwu glanced at him, reluctantly got into the car, and stared blankly out the window.
"Miss Pei, this is what the master asked me to bring to you."
Feng Zhi opened the bag, took out the items, and arranged them neatly.
A box of pastries and a bottle of lemonade.
"..."
Pei Jinwu glanced at it again, but her appetite was poor, so she didn't eat.
"Miss Pei, let's go." Feng Zhi got into the driver's seat and started the sports car.
During the journey.
Pei Jinwu held her schoolbag, staring out the window without saying a word; the carriage was eerily quiet.
"Miss Pei, let me tell you a joke."
Feng Zhi gripped the steering wheel, his palms covered in cold sweat.
Before coming, the master specifically instructed us to carefully coax Miss Pei and try our best to make her happy.
"..."
Pei Jinwu blinked and ignored him.
"Ahem." Feng Zhi cleared his throat and said slowly, "If the white balloon hits the black balloon, what should be done with the black balloon?"
"..."
Upon hearing this question, Pei Jinwu finally looked away and gazed at him indifferently.
"A confession balloon, hahaha." Feng Zhi gave the answer, laughing heartily. "Miss Pei, let me tell you another one."
Why is a flower funny?
"..."
Pei Jinwu frowned, picked up the lemonade, unscrewed the cap, and gulped down two mouthfuls.
"Because it has a catchy quip, hahaha, isn't it funny, Miss Pei?"
Feng Zhi laughed as he looked back.
"You can drive without talking."
Miss Pei didn't laugh; instead, she gave him a look of concern for someone with intellectual disabilities.
The next second.
The bottle in her hand was suddenly crushed.
"Haha...uh."
Feng Zhi's smile froze on his face instantly, a chill running down his spine, and he quickly shut his mouth.
He was afraid that after Miss Pei finished squeezing the bottle, she would squeeze his neck next.
When the master is around, Miss Pei is quite peaceful.
Why today...?
If I had known, I should have let Fengxing do it.
——
Above the clouds.
Having lived in her new home for several days, Pei Jinwu ate dinner alone for the first time.
"The master has been held up by something and may be back a little late," said Wang Ma, fiddling with the plates. "Miss Pei, please eat first."
"oh."
Pei Jinwu held her chopsticks, looked at the dishes she usually loved, and only ate two simple bites.
It's tasteless, just sitting there with the bowl.
"Miss Pei, are you full?" Wang Ma asked in surprise. "Is there something you don't like?"
How much did they eat?
Normally, she eats several bowls of rice.
"No, I'm not very hungry." Pei Jinwu stood up and walked towards the door. "Thank you for cleaning, Aunt Wang. I'm going to sit at my aunt's house for a while."
"ah?"
Seeing that Pei Jinwu hadn't touched her dinner much, Wang Ma worried that Pei Jinwu might be feeling unwell, so she quickly notified Shang Shiyan.
"You came back from school and didn't eat anything?"
At that moment, Shang Shiyan was at the old house. Upon hearing the sound, his handsome face frowned with unease: "I'll come back after I've finished dealing with things."
Hang up the phone.
Turning around, he bumped into the old lady, who was staring at him intently.
"After school?"
The old lady stared intently at him, her expression serious: "Is the girl you cherish still in school?"
"..."
Shang Shiyan pursed his thin lips and remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.
"You..." The old woman was quite frightened, her aged voice stammering, "Could it be..."
"Grandma, your grandson isn't that kind of person."
Shang Shiyan shook his head helplessly and patiently explained, "I'm an adult, but I'm still in school. Don't worry, we're still friends."
I will never do anything out of line at an inappropriate time.
No wonder—
The old lady shook her head, her expression full of disgust: "With your icy face, what girl could possibly like you?"
Not to mention, young girls.
No wonder he couldn't catch up after chasing for so long.
"..."
A shadow fell over Shang Shiyan's handsome face, and he said helplessly, "Grandma, I am your own grandson."
“If he really is your grandson, you should listen to me and meet the miracle doctor.”
The old lady sat on the sofa, arms crossed, her lips pouting. "But it's too late for you to back out now. The miracle doctor has already been chosen."
"Um?"
Shang Shiyan picked up the teapot and poured a cup of water for the old lady.
"Your second uncle's son will be back from abroad soon." The old lady snorted. "That brat is only in his twenties, he's a better match for the miracle doctor."
"At your age, you're still looking down on people? I'm almost embarrassed to say anything to you!"
"Him?"
Shang Shiyan breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, and the corners of his lips turned up. "They do match quite well."
after.
Surely Grandma wouldn't force him to see the miracle doctor again?
"The girl you've taken a fancy to, are you bringing her back for me to see this time too?" The old lady glared at him, smiling so happily.
I really want to punch someone.
She wanted to see what kind of extraordinary person could move him so deeply.
The miracle doctor was the most beautiful, well-behaved, and sensible girl she had ever met.
Others certainly can't compare.
"Not for now."
Shang Shiyan refused, picked up his coat and stood up, saying, "She happens to have something to do on the day of your birthday banquet."
not to mention--
The little girl is shy around strangers and might not like this kind of situation.
Let's wait a while longer.
At least you can pursue someone openly and honestly, and then figure things out after you've won them over.
