Chapter 148

Wow! That's amazing, but what's the principle? What's the formula?

Okay, I looked at it, but I don't get it.

Brother Xia, do you understand?

As the class representative, Xia Chaoyi shook his head, 'I don't get it.'.

It's written in such detail, and he still doesn't get it—is he going to fail ah ah ah ah ah?

The math teacher pushed up his glasses, his gaze scanning back and forth across the screen, his tone admiring: 'You truly are our class princess and her desk mate!'

Mu Youyu felt a bit embarrassed hearing that title, while Jiang Liangjin raised an eyebrow.

Applause rang out again, even more enthusiastic than before.

Mo Song nodded as if everything made sense, found a thick book titled Mathematical Analysis, flipped to the formulas, and recorded both of their answers in his notebook.

Leng Yueyou, sitting beside her, slowly lifted her eyes, her voice lazy: 'Desk mate, you lost 5 points on this test, eh, even worse than last time.'

Mo Song didn't put down his pen: 'What are you having for lunch?'

'I want to eat...' Leng Yueyou listed a few dishes.

Xia Chaoyi clicked his tongue in amazement: 'Two methods! I can't even think of one, the gap is huge!'.

Bai Yun stared at the steps on the screen, her fingers flying across the scratch paper, but she couldn't make sense of it, slumped her shoulders in defeat, and wailed: 'I'm done, I feel like I'm learning fake math—how on earth did their brains grow like that?'

Mu Youyu put down her stylus, turned around, and just happened to meet Jiang Liangjin's gaze—no words needed.

As she walked back to her seat, she glanced at Gu Xingnan still slumped over the desk, his back rising and slightly falling—he seemed truly asleep, not even awakened by the earlier loud noise.

Yu Ci leaned over, lowered his voice, and said to the two of them: 'I'm not saying this, but your moves are too slick—scoring full marks on every exam like it's a game, how am I, a mere mortal, supposed to survive?'

You……

Jiang Liangjin's gaze swept over Yu Ci's test paper at the corner of his desk, noticing the other person's line of sight.

He swallowed what he was about to say next and replaced it with a gentle: 'You're not bad either.'

Yu Ci's face was full of disbelief, and the next second he covered his chest, making a show of being moved to tears, lowering his voice to sniffling: 'Sniff Sniff Sniff, A Jin! You praised me for the first time! I'm so moved, tears are about to fall!'

That exaggerated sight made Mu Youyu unable to help tugging at the corner of her mouth.

Jiang Liangjin: '……'

He turned his head and ignored him.

Mu Youyu picked up her paintbrush again, just about to continue drawing, when she felt a slight movement under the desk, looked down, and saw Jiang Liangjin pushing a lollipop toward her hand.

She put it away: 'I'll eat it after class.'

The math teacher was still explaining the test.

Right!

Yu Ci suddenly thought of something, poked the front desk again, lowered his voice: "A Jin Youbao, we'll go pick up Anzhi on Friday—what time should we leave?"

Pretending to sleep, Gu Xingnan didn't understand why they were asking what time to leave so soon—doesn't it all come to the same thing?

Jiang Liangjin didn't answer right away, but turned his head to look at Mu Youyu, his eyes inquiring; obviously he was seeking her opinion.

"Let's go right after school," Mu Youyu said, her pen pausing as she lifted her gaze.

"Fine, that's settled!" Yu Ci slapped the desk, his tone excited, forgetting to lower his voice, "Then I'll go now……"

Before he could finish speaking, the classroom fell into sudden silence.

Mu Youyu turned her head, seeing most of the classmates in the class turn their heads in unison, their gazes all fixed on Yu Ci's direction.

The math teacher also stopped writing on the board, facing everyone, "Young Master Yu, you seem in a great mood today—would you like to share with everyone what's making you happy?"

Yu Ci gave a light cough, quickly waved his hand, "Nothing, teacher, I'm just so-so; please continue the lesson."

Immediately, a low suppressed laughter rose around them, and Jiang Liangjin shook his head helplessly.

Mu Youyu also couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth—actually they could just chat on their phones.

The atmosphere in the classroom became lively again.

Yu Ci rested on the desk and made a "all done" gesture with his mouth to the two of them.

The two turned their heads back.

The teacher began lecturing from the first question.

Bai Yun in the front row finally gave up studying those two solution methods, turned to Xia Chaoyi and made a devastated Expression, poked his arm with her pen, and passed him a note that read, "Deskmate, do you know about loving desks?".

Xia Chaoyi held back his laughter and shook his head.

Bai Yun didn't want to deal with him.

Mu Youyu handed out the drawings one by one to Lin Ning, then put away her phone.

"A Jin, which university do you want to apply to in the future?" Mu Youyu suddenly remembered this and whispered to Jiang Liangjin beside her.

Jiang Liangjin glanced at her sideways, his eyes gentle, "Wherever you go, I'll go."

Mu Youyu recalled what he had said at the opening ceremony about waiting for her, and said, "Then I'll ask my second older brother when the time comes."

Both are now fifteen; in fact, according to the normal school entry age, they should be a grade lower than they are now.

However, when Mu Youyu first started kindergarten as a child, she insisted on staying for a year, still unaccustomed to lacking the care of her second older brother Mu Xi; although Jiang Liangjin was always with her, she still kept thinking about her second older brother.

Later, after halfway through kindergarten, she finished her graduation certificate early, skipped directly to first grade at age five, and Jiang Liangjin followed her.

Coincidentally, she became classmates with Yu Ci and Gu Xingnan of the same grade, and they have studied together all the way to now.

Meanwhile, Mu Xi was already in third grade at that time, two grades ahead of them.

When he later prepared to go up to the junior high department, Mu Youyu again had the idea of skipping a grade, wanting to follow her second older brother.

Mu Xi felt sorry for his sister, worried she was too young to adapt to junior high, so he handled the downgrade procedures for her, letting her stay in elementary school for an extra year.

Song Lujing, at that time, was overjoyed to see that they were in the same class.
