Having been given a second chance at life, who would still want to pursue her?

Inside the classroom.

Zhang Xinyi and Chen Jianji returned to their seats one after the other.

The first person went inside and sat down.

Chen Jianji stood at his desk, looking down at Lin Qingxue, who was still writing her questions as if no one else was around.

knock!knock!knock!

He reached out and tapped the corner of the table.

Lin Qingxue paused noticeably, and the pen she was writing with stopped.

As soon as she sat down next to him, Zhang Xinyi, who had been somewhat absent-minded, also looked over.

It seemed that she could feel the gazes focused on her.

Lin Qingxue pursed her lips before slowly raising her eyes. She first glanced at Zhang Xinyi, who was looking at her.

Then she looked away, her eyes rising to meet Chen Jianji's gaze.

Lin Qingxue spoke expressionlessly.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Jianji looked at her consistently cold face and didn't give her a pleasant look either.

"Go back to your seat."

"I'll ask the vice class monitor to tell me the key points for these question types. You can just write down the questions directly without making any annotations, which will save you some time."

It wasn't a discussion, but a statement.

Lin Qingxue frowned immediately.

In particular, he seemed to sense Zhang Xinyi's slightly smug yet amused gaze beside him.

It felt like a stone was stuck in her chest.

Before.

She probably doesn't have much reason to stay here.

But things are different now than before.

Lin Qingxue took a deep breath and slowly spoke.

"You were the one who promised, and I didn't intend to stay here anyway."

"It's just to repay a favor to you."

"laugh!"

Chen Jianji couldn't help but chuckle.

"Did I ask you to do any of this? And if you don't want to stay, I don't want to see your perpetually sour face!"

The blunt words made Lin Qingxue pause slightly.

She gripped the pen tightly in her hand, her face pale.

She had long known that Chen Jianji had a sharp tongue.

But that was for other people.

He had never said these words to himself.

But he just cursed his own face...

This is practically a personal attack!

Lin Qingxue stared intently at him, her expression tense.

"You didn't ask me to do it?"

"You wanted me to give you the questions, didn't we discuss it in the hallway?"

Upon hearing this...

Just as Chen Jianji was about to continue speaking, he suddenly stopped.

He was speechless.

It seems that Zhang Xinyi, a third person, was present at this moment.

Lin Qingxue, unyielding and unwilling to back down, had a hint of anger in her eyes.

"I'll finish writing quickly, the transaction is complete, and I'll leave immediately!"

Just as she was about to lower her head and pick up her pen again to continue writing...

Chen Jianji spoke up.

"Are you sure you're not leaving?"

Lin Qingxue didn't reply; her unwavering stance made her decision clear.

As if to avoid losing face, she sat up even straighter.

Chen Jianji noticed Lin Qingxue's subtle movement.

He gave a cold laugh and didn't try to shoo them away.

Instead, he pointed to the window facing the aisle in the classroom.

"Take a good look first and see who's looking for you outside!"

The words fell.

Lin Qingxue, who was about to continue writing her questions, paused.

I subconsciously turned my head and looked out the window next to the classroom.

A figure stood quietly in the stairwell, his face expressionless.

But his gaze remained fixed on this side.

"Oh..."

Chen Jianji let out another cold laugh.

No matter how stubborn Lin Qingxue was.

As long as Li Wenyan comes, everything can be compromised.

really.

Lin Qingxue's expression stiffened for a moment.

He even subconsciously lifted his body slightly, wanting to leave his seat.

Chen Jianji stood by and watched coldly.

Just as he expected.

The next step is to shut yourself out and distance yourself from the situation.

Chen Jianji waited quietly for her to leave with her things.

But unexpectedly, the next second...

Lin Qingxue slowly stood up, but she didn't bring anything with her, even the pen she brought was put back on the table.

"I'll go out first, and I'll come back to continue later."

After she finished speaking, she walked straight away from her seat.

Chen Jianji was stunned for a moment.

Until the figure gradually disappeared through the doorway and into the corridor.

Chen Jianji couldn't help but curse.

"No, she's got something wrong with her!"

......

Outside the classroom, in the hallway.

Li Wenyan stared at Lin Qingxue for a long while before finally asking a question.

"Xiaoxue, when I asked Uncle Lin about the situation today, he said you've already been recommended for university admission?"

"So the bonus you mentioned last time was because you were recommended for university admission?"

His voice was low and hoarse, and he had a forced smile on his face as he spoke.

"Um."

"Then why didn't you tell me?"

Li Wenyan pressed for further details.

Lin Qingxue shook her head: "I don't want to put pressure on you."

Li Wenyan's smile gradually faded, and his gaze passed over her, looking towards a corner seat in the classroom.

"And what about him?"

"Now that you've been admitted to a university and have more free time, instead of spending time visiting Uncle Lin in the hospital, you're here writing down this year's college entrance exam prediction questions for him?"

As he spoke, he pointed to himself.

"You won't write for me, but you write for him instead, and you still won't admit you like him..."

Before Li Wenyan could finish speaking...

Lin Qingxue raised her voice slightly, interrupting.

"That's enough!"

Li Wenyan's voice suddenly froze.

Lin Qingxue looked at him and slowly explained.

"The day my dad got injured, he was working at a construction site in town. His family took him to the hospital and paid for his hospitalization."

"If it weren't for his family, my dad's back problem might have gotten much worse if things had been delayed."

"I just..."

She paused for a moment before continuing.

"I'm just repaying a favor."

Li Wenyan gave her a deep look.

"My score is high enough for a bachelor's degree, but the tuition is high for a second-tier university."

"You clearly provided the question types, so why did you never tell me? How do you explain that?"

Lin Qingxue remained calm.

"I only found out today that he's not as smart as you; I have to specifically find similar question types and annotate them."

"You have a good foundation. I'll compile a list of practice questions from the workbook and select the ones that are best suited for you."

"But this method is just a shortcut. Unlike him, you have the foundation. Think more about it on your own and develop a systematic learning ability, which will also help you in the future."

Upon hearing this...

Li Wenyan wanted to say something, but Lin Qingxue had already shut him down.

Her expression remained calm, and even her eyes showed no change.

It was as if everything had been prepared in advance.

Li Wenyan clenched his fists so tightly that his nails scratched his skin, and nodded with a somewhat gloomy expression.

"That would be best."

He had barely finished speaking when he was about to leave.

But the handwriting brushed past Lin Qingxue.

Li Wenyan suddenly spoke up.

"Look at them, don't they look quite well-matched?"

These words were spoken.

Until Li Wenyan passed her and left.

Lin Qingxue turned around and whispered to his back.

"Ayan!"

Li Wenyan paused.

Lin Qingxue's voice continued.

"The school recently hired a counselor."

"you..."

"Should we go over and take a look?"

......
