Chapter 189: Chapter 189: I’ll Give Them All to You to Eat
Yun Yue slouched in her chair, sitting in a bold yet careless posture, "Playing professionally again is out of the question."
Boring.
When Yang Xing asked, everyone in the class turned their attention to her. Now hearing that she wouldn’t play professionally anymore, the hopeful look in their eyes quickly faded, and they just felt a bit of pity.
As soon as class started, Yun Yue was called to the office to take an exam.
This was the agreement she had with Mr. Xiao: he would always approve her leaves, but she had to take a test upon her return. If her performance declined, she wouldn’t be allowed to take leave next time.
After finishing the last comprehensive science exam, she stood up carelessly, placed the paper in front of Mr. Xiao, and said with her head lowered, "Mr. Xiao, I’m off to have lunch."
It was always math, English, and comprehensive science; she spent just two and a half hours in total, almost instantly filling in answers with a single glance.
Thus, with four hours’ time, she spent the first hour and a half sitting on the office couch playing with her phone.
Mr. Xiao was used to this by now. With every visit, she operated the same way. Looking at the completed exam papers, he said with a smile, "Go on, go ahead."
The math and English papers had already been graded, and both were perfect scores.
The comprehensive science paper was expectedly perfect as well, and all the teachers in the office had grown numb to it. Seeing so many perfect scores was nothing extraordinary.
Yet, they were still quite amazed by Yun Yue, each of them wishing they could drag her into their class by force.
Playing around like this every day and still scoring full marks!
The students in their own classes couldn’t match even half her prowess with their daily studies!
Just as Yun Yue stepped out, Zhang Ziyue was waiting for her at the door, wearing the bracelet Yun Yue had given her. Knowing the last one was valued at ten million, she dared not accept another like that.
Later, when she gave one to each girl in the class, she finally accepted hers.
Since it was a science class, there were only 16 girls, and they got along very well, calling each other "brother" as if they were boys.
But girls will be girls; they all liked shiny things, so she had a bracelet customized for each one based on their zodiac signs.
Plus, they weren’t expensive. She paid for the diamonds herself, and they were just made by Vankaf’s hands, costing ten thousand yuan for the craftsmanship.
So, it worked out to less than one thousand yuan per person, which was the least impressive gift she could offer...
Zhang Ziyue’s delicate eyebrows smiled, "Yun Yue, I’m waiting to go to the cafeteria with you; Yang Xing and the others have already gotten your meal ready."
Somehow, she’d reached the point where she didn’t need to queue for food anymore. Yang Xing and the others would get it for her, and the portions in her plate were particularly large, more than what they had, and it tasted good, unlike the stir-fry from the large pots.
"Let’s go." She slid her hands into her pockets. Since the last parent-teacher meeting, she rarely wore her baseball cap, and her hair had grown considerably longer, casually tied into a high ponytail with wispy bangs adding to the casual vibe.
Afternoon self-study period.
The students from Class Seven had accumulated several questions waiting for her to answer.
Dinnertime.
After finishing her meal, she laid her head down on the desk to sleep until the bell for evening self-study rang, waking her up.
She sat there, droopy-eyed, for a while before grabbing her phone; Mo Fan had sent her a message.
She had found a gift suitable for Ruan Yingtong.
It was a brooch with a real sense of age and history, once worn by a foreign queen, and now someone had put it up for auction.
However, the auction was abroad, and she wouldn’t be able to make it. It just so happened that Wu Yi was there handling some affairs, so she could ask him to attend.
Saving the image and remembering the name of the auction, she sent them to Wu Yi.
"Help me out. Go to this auction and bid on this brooch for me."
He replied quickly from his end.
[?]
[Many people are eyeing this brooch, so it’ll probably cost a pretty penny to win the bid.]
He had also received an invitation to the auction, where this brooch was the showstopper, highly coveted by many for its collectible value. Not only great for display, it would also make quite the statement when worn, hence the fierce competition.
She squinted her eyes and typed out a message: [Money is no object, just bid for it, but don’t deliberately rip me off."]
[Don’t worry about me doing my job.] Wu Yi smiled.
He actually did want to rip her off!
If she ran out of money, she would come to him for work, but she held grudges. If she found out he had ripped her off, she would totally cripple the Black Alliance’s system.
Yun Yue logged out of WeChat, feeling broke, but Lou Ting was rich.
It wasn’t excessive to take some money from him, after all, she had helped him make so much.
Gu Yue came back from the store, carrying a large plastic bag full of candy.
Even Yang Xing felt that eating so much would eventually lead to a toothache, but it was astounding how his teeth remained so white and flawless.
"Here, for you to eat." He generously pulled out a packet of paper-wrapped candies from the bag and handed it to Yun Yue.
Inside were candies of all flavors, delightfully sweet and sour and very tasty; they were his favorite, and the shop owner would stock up a great deal each time, mostly reserved for him.
She clicked her tongue, finding it quite odd. She remembered when they first sat together; he wouldn’t even let her sit next to him. Then his attitude changed, occasionally offering her a candy or two, and now, an entire packet at once.
"Thanks." She accepted the candy, tearing off the wrapper to eat it.
Gu Yue said earnestly, with his handsome face, "You’re welcome. I give you candy, you teach me. Just get me above 745 points in the high school exams, and I’ll cover all your candy expenses from now on."
He had scored 740 on this test, with Lin Xuanze scoring 742, and with the college entrance exams approaching, those extra five points were proving tough to break through. He couldn’t get full marks on the big problems at the end, so after deliberating, he felt only she could help.
In the afternoon, when he went to the office to get his papers, he heard Mr. Xiao say that she had scored full marks again. That’s why he bought all this candy specifically for her.
Yun Yue: "..."
She almost choked on her candy.
Just moments ago, she thought he was just sharing candy out of classmate camaraderie, but it turned out he had an agenda!
She was about to decline when he dumped the whole bag of candy onto her desk.
"Take it all, just help me out." Gu Yue had an unnatural look on his face, his earlobes reddening a bit. It was the first time he had asked someone for help; usually, it was the other way around.
It was quite awkward and embarrassing.
Caught off guard with a desk full of candy, Yun Yue felt somewhat flustered. She stared at his face for a few seconds, a teasing smile playing on her lips. Looking at the five or six packets, she realized there was enough to last her till graduation.
"Seeing as there’s so much candy, I guess I can tutor you a bit."
After all, there’s a saying: the receiver of gifts is beholden to the giver.
Originally, she would have tutored him regardless, along with the rest of Class Seven and Lin Xuanze’s group.
Gu Yue watched her nervously, dreading a refusal that would mean he couldn’t go home. Now, seeing her agree, his usually cool demeanor melted into a pleasing smile.
"I’ll bring cake for you tomorrow." He grinned from ear to ear.
Even Yang Xing was dumbfounded, was this the same aloof Young Master Gu he knew?
Acting like a joyful simpleton just because the boss was willing to tutor him.
Yun Yue’s smile deepened, and her look towards him softened appreciatively; he was getting better at social interactions.
