5, Chapter 5(1/2)
After Fang Zhihao left, Chen Yan looked at her with a smile. Zhou Li felt slightly guilty, let go of her hands and lowered her eyes.
"Do you know what to do? Hum?" He stretched out his fingers and gently tapped her on the table. Zhou Li was confused.
"ah..."
"How to refuse Fang Zhihao? Tell him clearly and tell him not to show kindness to you again." Chen Yanxian simply patiently taught her and explained the matter carefully. Zhou Li reacted and blushed.
"He, he just bought me food twice, where can I show me good news..." Even after recalling Jiang Bugu's passionate pursuit, Zhou Li became more and more embarrassed and felt that he was insulted.
"What are you thinking about? It's dirty! I'll tell him clearly now!" Zhou Li stood up suddenly, clenched his fists and was filled with indignation, and rushed to Fang Zhihao's table like a small cannonball, and his arrogance became weaker again.
"You, come out and I have something to tell you."
The two of them stood in the corridor, Fang Zhihao was still a little disappointed, but couldn't help but feel nervous, mixed with expectation, "Zhou Li, what's the matter with me?"
"I just want to tell you..." She scratched her head, feeling a little distressed, "Don't give me food anymore. Everyone is classmates, there is no need to be so polite."
"Why!" Fang Zhihao was instantly angry and raised his voice, "Is it because of Chen Yanxian?"
"This has nothing to do with him." Zhou Lijiu browed and explained seriously and tenderly, "We are just ordinary classmates, not particularly good friends, so your kindness will make me feel stressed and uncomfortable. Everyone will do the same as usual in the future."
......
Fang Zhihao was listless and dejected when he returned to the classroom, he was like a defeated rooster. As soon as he sat down, he lay on the table and couldn't afford to go.
Chen Yanxian withdrew his gaze and his eyes fell on Zhou Li who was staring at him angrily. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth for the first time, and a gentle voice, "I did a good job, I will reward you this weekend."
Zhou Li endured it and wanted to maintain his anger, but he still couldn't help asking: "What reward?"
"You will know then." Chen Yanxian thought for two seconds and said with a smile.
This weekend, the weather was clear and the breakfast was just on the table. Zhou Li was dressed neatly and walked out with a small bag on her back, and hurriedly changed her shoes at the entrance.
"Mom, I made an appointment with a classmate today and left first."
"Hey, don't you eat breakfast?"
"It's too late--" Zhou Liren had already reached the stairs, and the voice came from afar. Zhou's mother looked at the 8:30 pm on the wall, and was deeply surprised.
When Zhou Li got out of the taxi and walked into the bookstore that Chen Yanxian mentioned, the last minute had passed since the agreed time between the two. She hurriedly searched and finally found him in the innermost position.
This bookstore is divided into two parts. There are various books in the front and similar to a cafe at the back. The lights are comfortable and the air is quiet. There are brown solid wood tables and chairs, and green plants can be seen everywhere.
She ran over, not breathing evenly, "Sorry, I'm a little late."
"It's okay." Chen Yanxi looked very kind and even asked her, "Have you had breakfast?"
"..." Zhou Li Ping regained for two seconds before answering tentatively, "Not yet."
"Then I'll order one for you. The cake in this shop is pretty good." Chen Yanxian lowered his head and took the order book next to her, ordered a Black Forest cake and two cups of coffee for her.
Zhou Li sat down in surprise, put her small bag, and paid close attention to his expression.
You know, Chen Yanxian hates others who are late the most. She accidentally overslept in the morning and was worried all the way in the car.
Zhou Li attributed all this to him being in a good mood today.
Then, I couldn't help but remember the purpose of this trip.
"By the way, what are the rewards you mentioned?" Zhou Li Xinghu's big eyes were full of expectations, and he held his cheeks with both hands, and his smile unconsciously overflowed.
Chen Yanxian bent the corner of her mouth slightly, then opened the zipper of her schoolbag in front of her, calmly took out a stack of thick test papers from it and put them in front of her, with a gentle expression.
"This is the focus of the past years of practical test simulation and my own compilation. If you finish these, you should be able to barely pass the math."
"......" Zhou Li looked at the pile of test papers in front of her that were almost higher than her chin, and felt a despair she had never experienced before.
After a while, she struggled to death and asked in a weak voice, "Can you not do it?"
Chen Yanxian shook her head, gentle and cruel.
"Zhou Li, you want to go to the same university as me."
This was undoubtedly another thunder. Zhou Li opened her lips for a long time and couldn't close her. She shouted in disbelief: "Chen Yanxi, you are crazy!"
She shook her head in horror and murmured to herself, "Impossible, you might as well just shark me."
"I have analyzed that you are not bad at all other subjects except mathematics. The total score is also 100 above the grade. It is only a hundred points away from the admission score line of University A last year. It is not impossible to try your best in the last few months."
Chen Yan was still calm and analyzed it calmly and clearly, but Zhou Li became more and more desperate as she listened. She closed her eyes and shook her eyes hard, hypnotizing herself.
"If you don't listen, you will recite the scriptures."
Chen Yanxian: "..."
He took a deep breath and called her in a deep voice.
"Zhou Li."
She cried with a sad face, slowly lowered her hand, and looked at him and begged.
"I really can't..." She argued in panic. "People like me who have limited brain capacity cannot compare with you high IQ academic masters. The story of a poor student counterattack will only happen to smart people. Moreover, my parents are already very satisfied as long as I can get into college."
"Zhou Li, don't you want to study in the same school as me?" Chen Yanxian's expression softened, slowed down his tone, and tempted him.
"If you find me anytime, anywhere, you can meet me in the morning and evening. You can go out together on weekends and take the same train home on holidays. No matter what difficulties you encounter, I will find a way to help you solve-"
As his words fell little by little, Zhou Li fell into deep thought. She looked forward to the scene he described, and was entangled for a long time. Finally, her eyes fell on the stack of test papers in front of her, and she instantly shuddered and returned to reality.
"That, actually, I think it doesn't matter if you are not in the same university..." She tentatively said, Chen Yan's face changed, and the warmth just now was like an illusion.
He had a expressionless face and a cold tone.
"Then let's break up."
"......" Zhou Li changed his words immediately.
"You're right! I think it's good to go to the same university!"
"Isn't it just a test for A-level exam, I can definitely do it!" Zhou Li said crying.
......
One morning, we were busy doing the exams, and time passed quickly. At noon, the two of us had lunch at the store. Zhou Li ordered pasta, and Chen Yanxian ordered a serving of black pepper beef rice.
The food was served, and the rice was good. The pasta was served on a delicate plate, and it was a small ball. Zhou Li could see the bottom after taking a few bites.
She couldn't help but stared at the meat piece in Chen Yanxian's plate, pinched the fork tightly with her hands, and swallowed her throat.
Chen Yanxian lifted up his eyelids and looked at it, picked up a few pieces for her with chopsticks, and asked again, "Is it enough? Do you want to scoop some more rice for you?"
Zhou Li thought for a few seconds, nodded decisively, and moved the bowl forward, "Okay, I want rice with sauce over there."
Chen Yanxian was speechless, and followed the place where she pointed her finger and took a spoon to half of it.
After eating and drinking, the two continued to review. After finishing another test paper, Zhou Li straightened up and stretched, Chen Yanxian put down his pen and rubbed his hands at the same time.
He glanced at the watch on his wrist, and was a little casual, "It's four o'clock, do you want to go to see a movie?"
"Ah, is it so late?"
"Well, you can go home for dinner after watching it." Chen Yanxian looked up at her, "The combination of work and rest will instill too much in one go, your brain can't bear it."
"It's reasonable." Zhou Li couldn't wait and started to put away the test papers and review the textbooks.
"Bring two cups of milk tea by the way, and the movie plus milk tea is the perfect match."
It was Sunday, and there were many people in the cinema. Chen Yanxian booked tickets online in advance and bought them the most recent one. It was a classic Disney animation video, and many parents took their children to watch.
The two of them found their place with tickets. After sitting down, Zhou Li looked to the side and faced the round eyes of a little boy, holding popcorn in his hand and staring at her attentively.
Zhou Li smiled at him, and the light on his head suddenly turned dark, and the video began to be screened in the middle of the big screen.
The movie lasts a hundred minutes. After watching the sunset, it just sank in the sky, and it was stained with a deep and light red color, making the evening look particularly gentle.
The bus stood below the cinema, and the two walked side by side in that direction, along the road, passing by the crowd. Zhou Li also had unfinished milk tea and leftover popcorn on his hands. When he was about to find a trash can to throw it away, he found that his shoes were spread apart.
She quickly handed the things in her hand to Chen Yanxian and squatted down to tie her shoelaces.
Zhou Li was wearing sports shoes and tied them up in just a few seconds. Just as she was about to get up, she heard a temptation with surprise from behind, "Chen Yanxian?"
Chen Yanxian turned his head when he heard the sound. The man seemed to confirm, and his tone became affirmative.
"It's really you. What a coincidence, are you alone?"
Zhou Li now heard that he was the labor committee member of their class, a boy who likes to gossip and make fun of him the most.
She immediately raised her head, maintained her shoelace lace posture unchanged, and shook her eyebrows at Chen Yanxian, making a wink.
He lowered his eyes calmly, landed on her hand that was stalemate on her shoelaces, moved away again, looking backwards with a faint tone.
"Is there anything wrong?"
He stood there, with no expression on his face, and he seemed to be free from being in a stranger.
The male classmate was instinctively scared and felt that he might not be in a good mood today. He couldn't wait to slip away and had no intention of paying attention to his surroundings.
"It's okay... I just saw you say hello." He waved his hands repeatedly, pointed to the other opposite direction, and asked cautiously, "Then I'll leave first?"
"Be careful on the way." Chen Yanxian had his chin tense and nodded slightly, and his attitude became much softer. The male classmate was flattered. When he turned around and left, he scratched the back of his head in confusion.
Why is this person a little weird today...
Zhou Li squatted on the ground so hard that her feet were almost numb. She didn't hear Chen Yanxian call her up. The conversation seemed to stop for a while. She couldn't help but move, and turned her head a little bit like a thief, and there was no one behind her.
To be continued...
