I'm in high school, is my dating system working correctly?

Ji Yiwei's face was grim, and his eyes glanced at his son.

waste!

I gave you all the answers and told you to memorize them, so why are you writing so slowly?

And it's one thing if it's just someone else, but it's that brat from Lu Heng's family too—it's not just killing him, it's destroying his spirit.

I'm so damn pissed off!

The deputy factory director, Ji Yiwei, whose mind was filled with profanities, twitched at the corner of his mouth.

"Then Lu Yu must have received the prize money, right?"

The school leaders, unaware of the feud between Ji Yiwei and Lu Yu, simply nodded.

"...Yes, this student, Lu Yu, is quite good."

Ji Yiwei reluctantly took out a red envelope and handed it to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu even opened the package and counted the contents in front of him.

The five brand-new red banknotes even smelled of money.

You have successfully claimed your reward. Keep up the good work and embrace a wonderful life!

Oh yeah oh yeah!

"Thank you, Deputy Factory Director Ji. I will work hard."

Lu Yu grinned as he prepared to return to Zhou Qianyun's side.

"Lu Yu is amazing."

Zhou Qianyun couldn't say anything witty at this point, and could only exclaim in amazement.

To be honest, she didn't even understand the question, and Lu Yu rambled on and on, but she only had a vague understanding of it herself.

Anyway, if you can make Ji Xunsheng lose face, you should praise him without hesitation.

Moreover, Lu Yu just now was indeed very powerful and handsome. If spring breeze has any pity for flowers, it can only hope for such a young man.

The other students also showed expressions of envy.

Are we wasting our time listening to your lecture while you're here to make money?

The presentation ended abruptly.

Ji Yiwei and Ji Xunsheng both lost interest.

This time, he went to Lu Yu's door to offer money and face, only to lose both his wife and his army, suffering a huge loss!

As everyone was leaving the lecture hall, the senior high school math teacher called out to Lu Yu.

"Excuse me, which class are you in?"

"Lu Yu, Class 7, Grade 11."

"Grade 11?"

The teacher adjusted his glasses, looking somewhat surprised.

These two questions are at the standard difficulty level of the preliminary round of the National Mathematical Olympiad. It would be difficult for an average student to write them out, let alone solve them with such ingenious methods. Being able to understand them thoroughly and even explain the thought process is at the provincial team level or above.

They start selecting promising students for the math competition group in the first year of high school, so they can't possibly miss anyone, right?

"teacher?"

Lu Yu had no idea what the teacher was thinking.

"Oh, it's nothing, you can go back now."

After watching Lu Yu leave, the school leader who had spoken earlier came over.

"Teacher Zhai, what's wrong?"

"That Lu Yu, I feel he has a very good foundation. How did we overlook him when selecting competition students in the first year of high school?"

Upon hearing this, the gray-haired math teacher looked away.

"I don't know. The math teacher for Class 7 in the second year of high school is Qin Zhijie. Why don't you go ask, Mr. Zhai?"

"Okay, I'll ask tomorrow."

Teacher Zhai nodded, then looked back at Lu Yu's writing on the blackboard and stroked his chin.

"Wonderful!"

"Ji Xunsheng's face just now was hilarious, hahaha."

On the way back to the classroom, Zhou Qianyun laughed unrestrainedly.

"Next time we meet, I must say to him, 'Thank you for the five hundred yuan reward, Young Master Ji.'"

Lu Yu, on the other hand, remained relatively calm.

Because [Elementary Listening] brought in the sound of the wind and his father's whispers.

"Dad, you have to help me get revenge. What made Lu Yu act so aggressively?"

"It's all because you're useless! You can't even solve a simple problem as slowly as others!"

"How was I supposed to know Lu Yu wrote so fast? He definitely copied the answer from somewhere before!"

"I don't care anymore. I swallowed my pride and hired a tutor to help you for so long during the holidays. If you don't get the improvement award in this monthly exam, you're as good as dead."

"Don't worry, Dad, I'll improve by at least forty places."

"That's fine. As for Lu Yu, it's inconvenient to move him now that the old factory manager is still around. When I become the factory manager next year, his dad will be the first to be fired, and then everyone in his workshop will be fired!"

really.

Lao Lu's job is in grave danger.

Lu Yu knew his father's personality.

To put it bluntly, Lao Lu is an honest man who doesn't compete or fight. He just keeps his head down and works hard, believing that hard work will be seen, recognized, and rewarding. He thinks that gold will eventually shine.

Such people, if they're lucky, can work diligently for a lifetime; if they're unlucky, they'll be the first to be optimized in cost reduction and efficiency improvement efforts.

If things proceed as planned, and Ji Yiwei becomes the factory director next year while Lao Lu is dismissed, then Lu Yu's family could indeed fall below the "death line".

Even with Zhou Qianyun's family's help, he was already middle-aged and down on his luck, his dignity damaged.

Fortunately, Lu Yu now has a system.

He couldn't force the factory director to postpone his retirement, nor could he catch Ji Yiwei red-handed for the time being, but at least he could get a score that exceeded everyone's expectations in the next monthly exam, so that Ji Xunsheng wouldn't get a single penny of bonus.

As for the remaining debts, they'll come to light eventually.

"Yes, we need to study hard."

Lu Yu murmured something.

Zhou Qianyun heard the boy's voice next to her and turned to look.

The orange-red sunset shone on his profile, making his serious and determined expression appear somewhat dazzling.

Zhou Qianyun's heart skipped a beat for no reason, and she quickly turned her face away, not wanting anyone to witness this fleeting moment of emotion.

As she approached the classroom, she touched her still slightly flushed cheeks, glanced at Cheng Bailu who was diligently working on her problems in the honors class, and then gently tugged at Lu Yu's sleeve as he prepared to return to his own class.

"Wait."

"What, do you want me to explain those two questions to you?"

Lu Yu turned around.

You must do well on your monthly exam.

Zhou Qianyun murmured.

"Nonsense, I'm still waiting to collect the two thousand yuan bonus from Ji Xunsheng's family."

Lu Yu chuckled softly, but the girl didn't reply; instead, she murmured softly.

"My tutoring time was taken up today."

"Oh my god, why didn't you say so earlier... Ah? You don't want to do it for another hour now, do you? There are only a few minutes left before school ends."

In Class 7, some students had already packed their bags and were heading out.

"Weren't you going to come to my house for dinner during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Zhou Qianyun unconsciously kneaded Lu Yu's sleeve, pursed her lips, and spoke amidst the deafening pounding of her heart.

"Why don't you stay at my place tonight? I can tutor you in English."

"?"

Lu Yu hesitated for a moment.

"Are you really that addicted to studying?"

"Get lost! Fine, forget I said anything. Just get the hell out of here, you jerk, don't dirty my eyes!"

Zhou Qianyun immediately loosened her grip on Lu Yu's sleeve, blushed, and punched him hard, but the boy nimbly dodged it.

She returned to the classroom in a huff, deliberately making a lot of noise while packing her things, attracting the attention of many classmates. They wondered what had happened during the presentation that had angered their class monitor.

Cheng Bailu also glanced back casually while tidying up her stationery.

The bell for "Walking in the Secret Garden" rang, and everyone stood up.

Cheng Bailu slung her backpack over her shoulder, glanced at the messages on her phone, and then walked towards the back door. As she passed Zhou Qianyun, she nodded slightly in farewell.

Zhou Qianyun responded.

I picked up my phone and saw a message from my mother saying I had to wait another ten minutes.

I got up to go to the restroom, and when I came back, I subconsciously looked in the direction of the main road.

The road, shaded by the already yellowing sycamore leaves, was filled with students returning home from school.

With just one glance, Zhou Qianyun instantly spotted Lu Yu and the petite Cheng Bailu beside him.

The bustling school walkway under the setting sun became the backdrop for their story. The two chatted and laughed as they walked away from Zhou Qianyun.

Once the two figures were completely out of sight, Zhou Qianyun took out her phone, opened the handsome picture of Lu Yu she had just taken, long-pressed it, and the delete option popped up.

A faint pang of sorrow lingered in his chest, intertwined with memories he could never forget, causing his hovering fingers to tremble slightly.

The next moment, the phone vibrated.

It's news from Lu Yu.

[Lu Yu]: I'll go home and tell my mom to remember to get me a newer blanket.

In an instant.

The gloomy mood vanished, leaving only a sweet feeling like cotton candy, which rose from the corners of my mouth, spread to my heart, and then flowed throughout my body.

[Qian]: Dream on! Sleep in the blanket I used!

Replying to the message, Zhou Qianyun walked lightly back to the classroom, humming a tune as she packed her schoolbag.

Outside the window, the wind rustles through the treetops, turning the sycamore trees yellow.

There are two days left until the Mid-Autumn Festival.
