Jian Zhizhen was completely confused: "When did you confess your feelings?"
Qin Yubai: "It's because your parents just went to the moon not long ago. I sent you a math equation to solve. After you solve it, that's what I'm going to say."
"..." Jian Zhizhen stared at him silently for a while, her eyes even redder than before.
She was truly heartbroken and cried this time, her eyes filled with tears.
Qin Yubai's heart also tightened, and he quickly cupped her face and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
Was it because she only realized his good intentions now that she was moved to tears?
To his surprise, Jian Zhizhen slapped his hand away, glared at him, and cried and cursed, "You're not human! I just graduated from junior high school, and you want me to solve such a complicated two-dimensional function? How am I supposed to solve it? I... I even asked my teacher, but even my junior high teacher couldn't do it. Qin Yubai, you're really not human!"
Qin Yubai looked at her with a surprised expression.
After Jian Zhizhen finished venting her anger, he slowly asked, "So you don't know how?"
"..." Jian Zhizhen's sobs stopped abruptly.
Qin Yubai said seriously, "I've thought of all the possibilities, but I never imagined that you wouldn't be able to do that question."
Jian Zhizhen got even angrier and kicked him: "I hadn't been exposed to that field before, so I couldn't solve it. You kept asking me for the results every day... Do you know how much you hurt my self-esteem?!"
"I'm sorry." Qin Yubai pulled her into his arms again and gently patted her back to comfort her.
The original version of that problem came from the mathematician Descartes.
Before he died, he wrote a letter to his lover, Princess Christine, containing only one function formula: r = a(1 - sinθ).
After seeing it, the princess solved the problem and found that the graph of the function was actually a question mark shape.
Qin Yubai was deeply moved by this love story when he was a child, and thought that he must invent a more complex two-dimensional function to confess his love to his lover.
He then complicated the equation, rewrote the formula, and the solution was B?Z.
He was overjoyed to be in a relationship with Jian Zhizhen, but he never expected that Jian Zhizhen would gradually distance herself from him after that.
He considered many possibilities:
Could it be that Zhenzhen only sees him as a brother?
Does Zhenzhen already have someone she likes?
Is it because they don't know how to change this relationship that they've had since childhood?
Unexpectedly, she simply didn't know how to do it.
He felt both helpless and relieved, and kept apologizing to Jian Zhizhen, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
After a long while, Jian Zhizhen sniffed and slowly stopped crying.
She felt a sense of helplessness, both amused and exasperated.
The root cause of their missed opportunities for early romance was actually these two trivial matters!
As expected, you have to be direct when confessing your feelings.
And we need a clear result!
Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, we should also clarify other things.
Jian Zhizhen raised her head, her reddened eyes fixed on Qin Yubai, and asked him, "Is there anything you want to say to me?"
"Yes." Qin Yubai's expression was very serious.
Jian Zhizhen sat up a little straighter, her heart beating faster involuntarily, waiting for his belated confession.
Unexpectedly, Qin Yubai grabbed her hand and tried to lead her to the desk next to him.
"Come, let me teach you how to solve that problem."
Jian Zhizhen: "..." Is this what he wanted to say to her?
[Qin Wang: Holy crap, I was almost moved to tears listening to this for so long! I thought you were going to give me a belated confession next, right? But instead, you're tutoring girls with their homework?! I'm so angry! How did I end up with such a master?! Please activate my self-destruct program immediately, I want to kill myself!]
Qin Yubai turned off Qin Wang's vitality mode.
Now I have to focus on comforting Jian Zhizhen; I don't have time to listen to the suicidal AI committing suicide online.
However, Qin Wang's opinion still had some effect.
Qin Yubai realized that he shouldn't have taken Jian Zhizhen to do math problems right after she had just finished crying miserably.
He should have confessed first, and then done the problems.
He opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly felt dizzy and was pushed onto the bed by Jian Zhizhen.
Then, she punched him right there and then, not with much force.
The hit didn't hurt, but it tickled, making Qin Yubai uncomfortable. He reached out and pulled Jian Zhizhen into his arms.
Jian Zhizhen crashed into his chest, and the next second she pushed him away forcefully: "Let go of me, go do your homework!"
Qin Yubai held her tightly, refusing to let go: "Let's do it together."
Jian Zhizhen retorted angrily, "I won't do it!"
"How can you improve if you don't do it?" Qin Yubai said this without any harsh tone, but his serious demeanor was really annoying, like a headmaster.
Just as Jian Zhizhen was about to curse again, Qin Yubai supported her waist and lifted her up a bit so that he could look her in the eye.
His gaze was intense, and his tone was as gentle as ever: "Let's do problems together, do research together, and stay together for life, just like your parents, okay?"
Jian Zhizhen met his gaze quietly, but couldn't quite understand whether this counted as a confession.
Who confesses their love like that?
She never says she likes me, not even a simple "Will you be my girlfriend?"
But she was still very happy.
She remembered when her parents moved to Yan Village after her brother went missing.
She was very reluctant to part with Qin Yubai, and she cried for a long time.
Her elementary school deskmate said, "Even when Qin Yubai gets a girlfriend, you two still have to break up, otherwise it will annoy his girlfriend."
This statement became a psychological shadow for her, and it was also the reason why she didn't dare to take the initiative for many years.
But now, it's not necessary.
Because the person she has liked since childhood also likes her.
Qin Yubai gently stroked her face with one hand, his clear black and white eyes filled only with her.
"You haven't answered me yet," he pressed, demanding an answer.
Jian Zhizhen looked at him silently for a while, but still didn't say anything.
She buried her face in his chest and lay on top of him.
Qin Yubai hesitated for a moment, then reached out and wrapped his arms around her tightly.
It would be nice to hold her like this all night long.
It would be even better if things could continue like this.
But this tender moment did not last long, as there was a sudden, urgent knocking at the door.
"Are you two asleep?" Lin Yi's voice asked.
Jian Zhizhen scrambled off Qin Yubai, glanced back at the door, then looked at Qin Yubai again, her gaze complex.
"..." Qin Yubai understood.
It's already past 11 p.m.
If someone else came looking for them at this time, they would definitely ignore them.
But since the person who came was Lin Yi, Jian Zhizhen couldn't possibly ignore him.
Qin Yubai sighed softly and had no choice but to get out of bed and open the door for Jian Zhizhen's prospective brother.
"Something big has happened! I need to have a serious talk with you all..." Lin Yi said as he walked inside.
