As we slowly enter the midsummer season, the golden sun is like a huge furnace, scorching the earth. Coupled with the non-stop chirping of cicadas on both sides of the road, the whole person can't help but be infected by the noise and fatigue.
The study was a little cooler, but not much cooler.
Zhou Yunwan was sitting on a chair, wearing a cool short-sleeved shirt and long pants, her long hair tied into a neat bun, and her pretty face flushed a strange red.
She is not heat-resistant. When summer comes, her body is covered with sweat and fine beads of sweat appear on her forehead.
"Here, have some watermelon."
"Thank you, Aunt Wang."
Zhou Yunwan held a popsicle in her left hand and a pen in her right hand, and tilted her head to smile sweetly at Aunt Wang.
The girl's bright smile makes people feel refreshed and is like a good medicine to relieve the summer heat.
Hearing the sound of the door closing behind him, Zhou Yunwan sighed, slumped back lazily, closed his eyes weakly, and muttered, "It's so hot, I'm about to evaporate."
...
...
As soon as these words came out, a clear and deep voice sounded: "Are you still not serious?"
Zhou Yunwan licked the popsicle and defended herself vaguely: "I'm already very serious."
As she spoke, she glanced at the person next to her.
Chen Yanli was looking through the questions she had just done with one hand, and fanning her with a palm-leaf fan with the other hand. His fingers were well-defined and slender, and even the simplest movements were pleasing to the eye.
The cool breeze relieved some of the heat, and the swaying fan also blurred his handsome face.
Zhou Yunwan blinked her eyelashes, leaned over the table, and moved closer to him. She found that he was not sweating, and his face was not even red. She asked curiously, "Aren't you hot?"
Shen Yanli raised his thick eyebrows slightly, glanced at her, and curled his lips calmly: “When you are calm, you will naturally feel cool.”
Zhou Yunwan wrinkled her nose and snorted, "Tsk, there is absolutely no scientific basis for what you said."
Shen Yanli didn't comment, but just circled the place where she did something wrong.
Seeing his serious expression, Zhou Yunwan pouted, glanced at the floor fan beside her, and sighed, "When can the fan be repaired?"
In this era, let alone air conditioners, fans are rare items, mainly ceiling fans and floor fans, which only some families can afford. Even if they can afford them, they will go on strike at any time due to unstable power supply.
"I've asked a master to come and fix it."
As a science and engineering man, Chen Yanli could naturally repair electrical appliances, but this time the problem was not the appliance itself, but that he didn't know where the power outage occurred in the family compound. It would be difficult to check and repair it, so it would be safest to call a master.
In summer, many places need electricity, and power outages are common.
It was already the end of June, and in order to help her pass the exam, Shen Yanli offered to help her with the subjects she was not good at, especially mathematics.
After checking the questions, Chen Yanli glanced sideways at Zhou Yunwan who was still eating a popsicle, his eyes sweeping over the pink tip of her tongue that was inadvertently exposed, licking, sucking, which were obviously normal actions, but inexplicably made his heart beat faster.
The fingertips holding the pen paused and his breathing quickened.
He calmly looked away, then tugged at the collar of his short-sleeved shirt and fanned himself with a palm-leaf fan faster.
Zhou Yunwan noticed the increasing wind speed and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Shen Yanli sat upright and sighed faintly: "This weather is a bit hot."
Hearing this, Zhou Yunwan became more confused. Didn’t he just say it wasn’t hot? Don’t they say that if you keep calm you will feel cooler?
Tsk, liar.
Zhou Yunwan quickly finished her popsicle and continued to study. While listening to his gentle and patient explanation and enjoying his watermelon feeding, she gradually solved the problems one by one.
Zhou Yunwan held her homework book in her hands with satisfaction, and flattered me with a smile: "It's so lucky to be your student. Where can I find a teacher who is so meticulous and gentle when explaining questions?"
Chen Yanli thought of the group of students in the class who said behind his back that he was the cold-faced devil, and smiled faintly without saying anything.
"Hehe, how about I try my best and apply for Huaqing? I can be your student?"
After saying that, Zhou Yunwan playfully flirted with him. She thought he would happily agree, but he ruthlessly extinguished her fantasy: "You are not cut out for this, so don't suffer this hardship."
Shen Yanli raised his hand and tapped her forehead, then picked up the empty plate, stood up and walked out of the study.
Zhou Yunwan covered her aching forehead. She was joking at first, but when she heard him say that, she immediately became dissatisfied and chased after him and said, "Since I'm not good at studying mathematics, then you should work hard to become a teacher of other subjects. That way, I can also be your student."
She is not the type of person who wastes time on herself. She is not good at math and is not interested in it. Since he says she is not good at it, then she doesn't have to learn it. Can't he just become a teacher of other subjects?
She was in the top three in her class and also in the top five in her grade. With her grades and more effort, she should be able to be admitted to the top institution of learning, Huaqing University, after the college entrance examination is resumed.
Chen Yanli stopped and turned around, only to see that her palm-sized face was half annoyed and half coquettish. She looked up at him coquettishly, and her angry look was so adorable.
He raised his thin lips imperceptibly, suppressed his smile, and said seriously: "But I don't want to be your teacher."
Zhou Yunwan was so angry that she almost died. She asked in disbelief, "Why? Don't you want to see me all the time? Together during the day and at night."
Hearing this, Shen Yanli pretended to be in deep thought, and after a while, he still shook his head: “Well, I don’t really want to.”
"You!" Zhou Yunwan's fair face turned red. She was surprised at first, and said "you" for a long time. Then she slapped him on his strong chest in anger, then turned around and walked back without stopping.
"Hmph, I'm ignoring you."
Seeing that the situation was developing towards a point where it was out of control, Shen Yanli quickly held her hand and smiled lightly: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."
"Teacher-student romance is strictly prohibited in Huaqing. I don't want us to be expelled before you even start school."
What he said made sense, but Zhou Yunwan ignored him. She rolled her eyes, shrugged her shoulders pitifully, revealing her beautiful and slender neck, and started to cry.
Shen Yanli panicked, put down the plate, and went to hug her: “Why are you crying?”
Zhou Yunwan dodged his hand: "Humph."
Shen Yanli chased after him, and as soon as he got close, he was pounced upon.
He subconsciously reached out to catch her, holding her soft thighs with both hands to prevent her from accidentally falling.
Zhou Yunwan hung on him like a koala, holding his neck tightly with both hands. After her center of gravity was stable, she pinched the soft flesh on his cheek with one hand each.
"Okay, now you know how to tease me, right?"
