Lu Zhanyu stood up quietly and patted the dust on his body, thinking to himself that Xia Wei’an was really as violent as the rumors made her out to be. ‘Ah, this is difficult!’
Mr. Geng talked about some remaining math questions from the lesson in the morning, which Di Xingchen had taught her correctly. Near the end of class, Mr. Geng assigned some homework to them, and Xia Wei’an took the time to do them during the other lessons. However, the questions were of higher difficulty, and she had a bad foundation in math too. Hence, after thinking for more than half a day, she still couldn’t come up with a solution.
“Wei’an, look, they are scolding you on the campus forum again. They’re saying that you may be ugly, but you’re good enough at seduction because you managed to bewitch the new school beau.”
Lu Yuxuan, who was seated in the front row, suddenly turned her head and handed the phone screen to Xia Wei’an to show her the infuriating comments which were all personal attacks directed at her.
“Go away, can’t you see I’m doing my homework?”
Xia Wei’an waved her hand impatiently. All she could think about now was the math problems. She had been staring at them for so long that she could already memorize the questions, but she still couldn’t find a way to solve them.
Having been turned down, Lu Yuxuan turned away with pouted lips. She thought, ‘Xia Wei’an is trying to act like a good student in front of the new school beau now, huh? Unfortunately, he’s gone to play basketball. No matter how hardworking she seems, he won’t be able to see her!’
As she was thinking about it, she heard Lu Zhanyu’s pleasant voice.
“You don’t know how to do it? I’ll teach you.”
She quickly turned around and saw Xia Wei’an asking with raised brows, “Do you know how to?”
“It’s such a simple question. It would be an insult to my intelligence. After all, I used to be the president of our school’s student council! Here, look, this question has to be solved using this method…”
Xia Wei’an originally wanted to mock him, but he had already started to explain the solutions, and Xia Wei’an felt that he sounded right, so she immediately got into study mode and followed his train of thought.
He managed to grasp the crux of every question, and Xia Wei’an felt like she had been enlightened. The confusion that she had been experiencing previously was all gone, and she now felt refreshed when doing the questions that she was stuck at before.
“I didn’t expect you to really know a thing or two.”
She originally thought he must have had poor grades and had created trouble in his former school, thus resulting in having to become a transient student in her school, but now, it seemed that such wasn’t the case. ‘Oh right, he mentioned something about the student council just now. Don’t student councils exist only in college? Lu Zhanyu is not simple!’
“Hmph, of course, I am. If you have any doubts again in the future, feel free to ask me for help. I’ll give you free tuition!”
Lu Zhanyu patted his chest and promised generously. Xia Wei’an thought to herself that he must have an agenda for offering unsolicited help to her out of nowhere. However, she did lack a tutor now, and since he was willing to help, she decided to agree to it. Regardless of what his motive was, she would just deal with whatever comes her way.
Just as she was about to nod in agreement, Lu Yuxuan who was seated in front, pretentiously clenched her fists and rested her chin on them. Blinking, she said in a coquettish voice, “Brother Zhanyu, can I join? Will you tutor me too?”
Lu Zhanyu shivered and got goosebumps all over his body. He rejected her decisively.
Furious and jealous, Lu Yuxuan picked up her cellphone and showed the article, which she had read this morning, to Lu Zhanyu. “Brother Zhanyu, look, Xia Wei’an and the vice class president have made a bet with each other!”
Actually, her intentions were to let Lu Zhanyu read the content of the article so that he would realize how horrible of a person Xia Wei’an was as she had viciously made Xia Tianzhen promise to withdraw from school if she lost.
The more Lu Zhanyu read it, the more displeased he looked. At last, he slammed her cellphone onto the desk with a loud thud, making Lu Yuxuan feel a great heartache. However, she secretly rejoiced when she saw Lu Zhanyu frowning angrily.
