Chapter 80: Chapter 79 Zhang Lingyu Returns

Munching on the crispy dried radishes, Lin Tian really didn’t know what to feel. Glancing at the Second Miss eating breakfast with her head down, he was sure it was this little girl who told her sister what he liked, even Miss’s sudden tenderness might have been her idea.

Just as Lin Tian understood Xiao Manxuan, she also knew him very well. He was someone who could be coaxed but not forced, like the fur on a tiger’s neck, which must be stroked in the direction it grows. If anyone dared to go against the grain, the tiger would show its might.

But Xiao Manxuan miscalculated this time, Lin Tian wasn’t some pushover who would grovel at Miss’s feet the moment she gave him a little favor.

I’m a man of principle, an honest person, Lin Tian chuckled to himself.

After breakfast, Xiao Manxue really did take Lin Tian and another student to school. Returning to this youthful campus, Lin Tian’s mood inexplicably lifted; it was filled with lovely classmates and youthful, beautiful female students. The stunning girls in uniforms, flaunting their fair thighs, dazzled Lin Tian.

What is called the charm of uniform? Miss’s might qualify, and this girl’s uniform also has a special flavor. Especially Xiao Manxuan next to him, in her school uniform, is the very incarnation of youthful beauty.

"You bad egg, why are you ignoring Sister Yu? Do you really not want to help her?" Xiao Manxuan looked at him with hope in her eyes, asking expectantly.

How was he supposed to respond to her? Reciprocate her flirtation, tease her a bit? Lin Tian said helplessly, "Second Miss, I’m not a god. There are some things I haven’t figured out yet, so how can I help?"

"So, if you figure it out, you’ll be able to help Sister Yu, right? Okay, I won’t bother you then, think hard," the little girl said with a sweet twinkle in her eyes, fluttering back to the classroom like a butterfly.

What’s happening? Were my words that ambiguous? Lin Tian touched his nose, perplexed by the little girl’s rich imagination.

Distracted, he walked into the classroom and saw Xiao Manxuan happily talking to a beautiful girl. Zhang Lingyu, she’s back! Lin Tian had been wondering about her situation last night, only to see her in the classroom this morning.

She was now wearing the school uniform, looking even more appealing, with less tomboyishness and more youthful softness. Her skin was still so fair and rosy, her eyes still so clear, and her waist-length hair still so dark and glossy. Could it be that her injuries had completely healed?

Seemingly feeling Lin Tian’s gaze, Zhang Lingyu turned and winked at him. The bright light of her eyes, under the rays of the sun coming through the window, seemed to dance with a glass-like shimmer.

She’s truly recovered, Lin Tian thought upon seeing her glance, knowing she had finally healed. Her medical skills were indeed impressive; the prescription he had given her worked after just two or three days. He only wondered whether the wound on her back had left a scar. On such clear and delicate skin, a scar would be too cruel.

Presumably, it wouldn’t have left a mark, considering Zhang Lingyu’s confidence in her medical skills and the likely efficacy of the prescription.

"You’re back?" Lin Tian said as he returned to his seat.

"Mm~" Though she uttered only a hum, her eyes conveyed gratitude.

"Lin Tian, Sister Yu caught a bad cold a few days ago, she was afraid of infecting us, so she took several days off," Xiao Manxuan leaned in and said.

A cold? Lin Tian looked at Zhang Lingyu with confusion but then figured it was the only explanation they could give. If she said she was attacked by a vampire, not only could it scare the other students, but even if she told the truth, nobody would believe her.

"Oh, that’s so? She didn’t even tell us, her butt deserves a spanking." Lin Tian’s words made both girls blush, and they fidgeted on their chairs as if recalling something.

Fortunately, the bell signaling the start of class rang just in time, easing the girls’ embarrassment. Watching their shy, blushing faces, Lin Tian felt smug inside, hehe, he thought, hitting the butts of two school beauties at once—no one would believe it if he told them.

The first class was English, and Wu Li walked in from outside, carrying a big stack of test papers.

"Students, today is a mock exam, and we will follow all the requirements of the college entrance examination. The test will last two hours, so please prepare yourselves mentally, now put away all related materials on your desks." After saying this, Wu Li started distributing papers to each row, and while doing so, he gave Lin Tian a covert glance with a hint of a smile, seemingly harboring some scheme.

As for what Wu Li was thinking, Lin Tian couldn’t be bothered to care. As long as Wu Li conducted the class properly and didn’t pick on him without reason, let him plot whatever he wanted. Lin Tian had little respect for people like him, who bragged all day about coming back from abroad and how high their standards are, looking down on their fellow countrymen.

And yet these people are actually very narrow-minded; if someone else’s opinion differed from theirs, they would say others lack knowledge and manners and are inferior to people overseas.

Since it was a mock college entrance exam, the English test included a listening section. Wu Li plugged the listening tape into the classroom player, and after everyone was ready, he pressed the play button.

The English listening content was mainly in American English, with an occasional mix of British pronunciation. Generally speaking, British pronunciation is harder to understand, but none of this posed a challenge for Lin Tian. Since he became a zombie, his learning efficiency had increased manifold. He could easily recall anything he had reviewed with just a bit of thought.

Wu Li, with his hands behind his back, walked around the classroom and stopped next to Lin Tian. Lin Tian glanced at him—afraid I would cheat, eh? Wu Li was now closely guarding him. Normally, invigilators should not move around during a listening test, as it could affect the students’ performance.

But it was clear that Wu Li still bore a grudge against Lin Tian and thus paid special attention to him during the exam.

You want to watch, huh? Fine, I’ll stop writing, Lin Tian thought and stopped writing, focusing only on listening. Xiao Manxuan, sitting nearby, found this strange, but she was too focused on the listening test to ask what was going on.

Wu Li, standing behind, saw Lin Tian not writing, and a smile with unclear meaning formed on his face. But before he could feel smug, as soon as the listening ended, Lin Tian swiftly filled out all the answers on the answer sheet. Strangely, although Wu Li seemed surprised, he didn’t react, maintaining a smile.

Lin Tian, with his back to Wu Li, had no idea what he was smiling about. After all, completing the English test posed no difficulty for him. Lin Tian’s spoken English was already good, and since he acquired the skill of never forgetting anything he saw, he had almost memorised the entire English dictionary, reaching a terrifying level of vocabulary.

One could say that for some of the less commonly used English words, even natives might not know how to spell or pronounce them, but Lin Tian did. That was the terrifying aspect of his photographic memory.

The English mock exam lasted two hours in total, but Lin Tian needed only a little over an hour to finish all the questions, including the English essay.

Under the amazed gazes of the entire class, Lin Tian handed in his paper. His classmates looked at him as if he were an alien.

Returning to his seat, Lin Tian took out his math materials to review. The two school beauties saw what he was doing and were utterly speechless. Everyone else was still taking the exam, but there he was, using the exam time to study math—is he even human?
