Xu Xinduo asked Shao Qinghe casually during recess, “Which university’s exam are you going to take?”
“If your brother takes B, I’ll take Hua’ and if he takes Hua, I’ll take B.”
“Why? You don’t want to be with my brother anymore?”
“I can’t be the school grass(3) with him around.”
(T/N: The unanimous and unspoken ‘golden boy’ of the school. Recognised as the most handsome male student in school)
“You…really are ambitious.”
Shao Qinghe smiled so heartily that Mu Qingyi also glared at him.
Shao Qinghe asked her casually, “How about you?”
“I’ll have to go and check my score partner,” Xu Xinduo got up and walked towards Tong Yan.
With his own efforts, Tong Yan had achieved a spot in the Advanced Class’ middle ranks. His seat was now quite close to Lou Xu.
Xu Xinduo walked over and stood at Tong Yan’s table. She handed him a question,”What do you think this sentence means?”
Tong Yan took a look at the question. He could only read it carefully before he replied, “He thinks that raising birds is good for physical and mental health.”
Xu Xinduo tapped the table with her fingers, “Think again.”
Tong Yan looked at it again and said, “He doesn’t seem very happy.”
This time Xu Xinduo changed the position of her fingers and began to tap Tong Yan’s forehead, “Read it carefully.”
Tong Yan suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
Whenever he saw Xu Xinduo, it was as if the head teacher had called him by name and singled him out. He shuddered and glanced at the question again.
Tong Yan risked his life to read and comprehend every line. Also, he had to think about the words for an entire day before he could finally write an essay about something.
He found it so difficult.
Xu Xinduo finally couldn’t help it and said, “You can analyse the situation by looking at the artistic conception. He is an old man who lost his only child, so the only one who can accompany him is this bird. The bird is his spiritual partner and his reason to live. Now that the bird has passed away, he’s saddened…”
“Just buy another one.”
“…” Xu Xinduo stared at him and asked, “If I broke up with you, why don’t you get a new girlfriend?”
“How is this the same?”
“Do you know what a spiritual partner is?”
“Yang Guo and his eagle? Me and COCO?”
There seemed to be nothing wrong with his words, but for some reason, it made her slightly irked.
She found that Tong Yan had been studying in the International Class for too long of a time as he was influenced by that way of thinking. He had an immense amount of gaps in his mind that encouraged his free thinking, which was why he could hop from reason to reason with no effort.
Hence, this kind of regular reading comprehension question really restrained him. If he was asked to write a composition topic, his mind would always go astray.
And she didn’t know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.
Even if he was the Chairman of the board in the future, he wouldn’t be able to understand the reports sent by his subordinates.
Mu Qingyi was also very anxious about Tong Yan’s study process, so he also came over to help Tong Yan explain things.
Tong Yan listened for a while but he couldn’t help but say to Mu Qingyi, “Older brother, you don’t have to worry. I will definitely work hard to answer the questions on the exam.”
“You don’t have to change the tone of your voice now.”
“Actually, I don’t think I want to call you something like ‘older brother’, I think I’m kind of older than you.”
