Chapter 23 His "Thank You Gift"
Cen Nian folded the quilt and held it in her hand. After thinking about it, she decided that it would not be a good idea to put it on the bed. Jin Siyang was a mysophobe. This was the quilt she had covered herself with, and it would seem strange to put it on the table.
After struggling for a few minutes, she took the quilt back to her room and decided to wash it before returning it to him.
She went downstairs and looked around the empty living room. No one was there. Suddenly, she heard some movement from the kitchen. She walked towards the kitchen curiously and saw Jin Siyang's tall figure standing there.
"You're awake, why didn't you call me?" Cen Nian walked to a position a little closer to him and asked cautiously.
Jin Siyang flipped the soft-boiled eggs and bacon in the pot without even looking at her: "Do you think I didn't scream?"
Cen Nian choked awkwardly for two seconds, and she understood Jin Siyang's subtext.
She chuckled and said, "Are you better from the fever?" When she asked this, she subconsciously raised her hand and put it on his forehead. When she realized what she had done, Cen Nian's body seemed to be nailed to the spot as if under a spell, unable to move.
Jin Siyang paused, pretending to turn off the fire as if nothing had happened, and glanced at her indifferently: "I'm fine, how long are you going to touch me?"
"Ah? Yes, I'm sorry!" Cen Nian quickly put down his hand.
"Come and have breakfast." Jin Siyang seemed too lazy to argue with her, and walked straight to the dining room with two Western food plates.
Cen Nian had just done something embarrassing, and now she wanted to find a hole to crawl into and be done with it, but Jin Siyang's semi-commanding tone made her follow him like a coward.
The world is big, but eating is the most important thing. Cen Nian’s embarrassment completely disappeared when he took the first bite of the soft-boiled egg.
The egg was fried to perfection, the edges of the egg white slightly crispy, the rest of the egg white very tender, and the runny center was particularly fragrant. Cen Nian excitedly pointed at the egg on the plate and praised it generously, "Delicious!"
Jin Siyang looked at her with compassion, biting the same fried egg as hers, which tasted like normal eggs. He really didn't know why she had such a happy and excited expression.
Cen Nian took another bite of bacon: "This is delicious too! Jin Siyang didn't expect you to be able to cook and cook so deliciously. This is the most delicious soft-boiled egg I have ever eaten."
He held the fork pretentiously and took a bite of the bacon as she asked, but still didn't find anything special about it.
But Cen Nian's eyes were particularly sincere, as if he knew why Aunt Liu always liked to watch her eat.
What he didn't know was that Cen Nian really thought it was delicious. She was happy because she was eating the breakfast made by Jin Siyang. It turned out that he could cook and cook so deliciously.
This way of getting to know him little by little and getting closer to him made her feel very happy.

Throughout the holiday, Cen Nian spent most of her time studying. The competition in the affiliated high school was quite fierce, and everyone in the class was very good. She couldn't fall behind, so she had to study harder.
But who could have told her that math would be so difficult!
Cen Nian has been good at some subjects since she was young. She is very good at Chinese and has always been among the top three in the class since elementary school. Her essays always get the highest scores and are model essays. However, her weaknesses are also fatal. She is not good at math and most science subjects.
It's just that she was taught from a young age that science would help her find a job, and in order to find a good job and let her grandmother live a good life, she resolutely chose science, but reality gave her a hard blow.
She lay deflated on the table, looking at the blank test paper, and began to think about life.
She had asked Zhu Zhiyao countless questions in the past two days, and she couldn't disturb her like this again today.
Cen Nian walked to Jin Siyang's door with the test paper, feeling very conflicted. She persuaded herself countless times in her heart, and finally returned to her room in shame with the test paper.
The silent door suddenly opened, and Jin Siyang stepped out, just in time to meet Cen Nian's face, which looked like she had lost all hope in life and was holding a test paper.
He raised an eyebrow: "Looking for me?"
Cen Nian nodded, then shook his head.
Jin Siyang said, "Stand here and wait."
He went downstairs in a leisurely manner and got a bottle of room temperature water. When he came back, Cen Nian was standing there like a good student, not moving.
Jin Siyang was silent for a long time. Perhaps because of her help last night, he said softly, "Come in."
Cen Nian walked into his room, not daring to glance around. He sat at the desk and pulled a chair for her. "If you have any questions, just ask. Just consider it a thank you gift. I don't like owing others."
Cen Nian understood that Jin Siyang wanted to thank her for what happened last night, so she sat down and handed the clean test paper to him.
Jin Siyang lowered his eyes. From this angle, one could see his long eyelashes. Cen Nian shook his head, trying to focus his attention. He casually flipped to the big questions at the back, his eyes fixed on the last few, and asked in a not-so-cold tone, "Which question?"
Cen Nian took a long time to react, then mumbled, "The third question."
Jin Siyang's pen landed on the third question. He didn't even think before he wrote, his ink smearing on the white draft paper. Cen Nian blinked and whispered, "Well, it's the third multiple-choice question."
After saying this, she almost used up all her strength.
Jin Siyang suddenly looked up at her, and Cen Nian seemed to see a hint of shock in his calm eyes.
He didn't say anything, just turned the test paper to the front. He just glanced at it and subconsciously chose the correct option.
After putting pen to paper, Jin Siyang paused for a moment, then wrote down the steps clearly on the draft paper: "This question is about derivatives... You know that, right?"
Cen Nian blushed, embarrassed: "I know."
Jin Siyang explained the topic in great detail, as if afraid that she didn't understand, so he went through the steps one by one, speaking slowly.
Cen Nian was embarrassed at first, but after listening, she found that Jin Siyang's thinking in solving the questions was so clear.
"Not just this problem, but all derivatives in the future can use these steps. The essence remains the same."
Cen Nian nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "I understand!"
Jin Siyang hummed softly and asked, "What else?"
Cen Nian hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the questions he didn't know how to answer.
Jin Siyang was still the same as before, but when it came to the big questions, Cen Nian still didn't understand the solution. She didn't dare to say it, but Jin Siyang only needed to glance at her to know whether she understood or not.
Seeing her confused look, I sighed secretly and simply changed to a more understandable method.
"I understand!" Cen Nian couldn't hide her joy, her eyes sparkling like stars: "I really understand, thank you Jin Siyang!"
"Um."
Back in the room, Cen Nian wanted to do it all over again, so he found a similar question to do. As Jin Siyang said, no matter how things change, the essence remains the same.
The corners of her mouth curved up, her face full of joy, and she took out her cell phone to send a message to Zhu Zhiyao.
[Cen Nian]: Yaoyao, good news, I have finished the three volumes.
Yaoyao: What?! You're not allowed to do that! I'm still stuck on the second-to-last question.
[Cen Nian]: Actually, I don’t know how to do it either. Jin Siyang taught me.
Yaoyao: Ahhhhh! Oh my god! Is this what you call rapid progress?!
After chatting for a while, Cen Nian put the phone on the bed and thought of what Zhu Zhiyao had said before -
"Easy questions won't be given to Jin Siyang."
But she asked a lot of questions tonight, which were simple questions for Jin Siyang and most of the students in the class.
She is still stupid.
Also, Jin Siyang is really nice.
Cen Nian buried his face in the quilt, but couldn't cover up the sound of his vigorous heartbeat.
