Of course, Song Yu soon realized how stupid he'd been just now. His mouth opened and closed, then he quickly changed the topic, "Are you off work?"

"No." Xie Sui sat down across from him and shook his head, "Are you working on exercise questions?"

Song Yu held up his math textbook, "Yeah."

They'd already met twice and their relationship was no longer so awkward and stumbling. Song Yu complained, "I must've been really bored to attempt this. It's so troublesome. The more I do it, the sleepier I get."

"It's not troublesome. It's the factorials of A66, 6."

Xie Sui laughed briefly. His slender hand reached out to pick up a pen and a piece of paper. He wrote a formula on the paper and handed it to Song Yu, "The question just now."

Song Yu was really embarrassed. His ears grew red as he accepted it, "Thank you."

Fortunately, guests arrived at the milk tea shop again and Xie Sui went off to do his work.

Song Yu looked at his back figure as he poked the straw into the cup and took a sip of his lemonade. His mouth filled with the cold sourness of summer.

He was depressed in his heart. Did the main protagonist think that he was mentally retarded? Even a primary school student wouldn't do calculations that way.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he was.

It was almost evening.

Song Yu's test paper was finally finished in rough fits and starts through his various creative answering techniques.

If there were three long answers and one short one, he'd pick the shortest; if there were three short answers and one long one, he'd pick the longest.

He mainly finished it by copying, supplemented by confused muddling.

He had no culture and could only rely on others.

After finishing off the test paper, Song Yu felt that his soul had been distilled to a higher level.

Sometime in the middle, the store manager had asked Xie Sui to go buy some strawberries.

Inside the quiet and empty milk tea shop, a female shop assistant finally found an opportunity to lean in and chat with him enthusiastically.

"Little brother, can I ask? What's the relationship between you and Brother Xie?"

The female shop assistant's name was Xiao Xi, and she was very beautiful. Her eyes were big, and she'd put on a small amount of orange lipstick, making her appear pure and bright.

Song Yu had finished his test paper and was in a good mood. He replied casually, "A friend. When school starts, we might even be classmates!"

Xiao Xi smiled when she heard this, revealing two sweet dimples that made her seem very happy.

"That's great. It turns out that Brother Xie has friends."

She put the delicate gift box she had been holding the whole time on to the table and whispered, "Can I ask you to help me with something?"

Song Yu was shocked, "A confession? You should tell him this kind of thing yourself."

Xiao Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "No, Brother Xie doesn't even talk to me. How could I have the courage to confess to him?"

She bowed her head, and her hair swept down over her ears. She seemed to be revisiting a memory, "Last week, Brother Xie saved my life, and I always wanted to thank him. But, I'm a little scared of him, so I still haven't dared to tell him directly."
