Why are you all trying to win over me, the male supporting character?

……

Why didn't my sister answer my call?

Meng Wanyu fiddled with her phone, feeling dejected.

"Could they have gone to bed so early?"

Thinking of this, she shook her head again.

impossible!

She knows her sister's daily routine very well.

My sister never goes to sleep at this time.

"Well, maybe you didn't bring your phone with you?"

Thinking of this, she shook her head as well.

Her older sister was more cautious and meticulous than her.

I never forget to bring my phone when I go out.

After eliminating all possibilities, only one last possibility remained that she found difficult to accept.

"Could my sister be deliberately ignoring my calls?"

"But……"

Why would my sister deliberately not answer my calls?

Meng Wanyu touched her lips and squinted her eyes.

Countless thoughts flashed through my mind.

She did not connect her sister with Lu Chengzhou.

In her opinion, it was highly unlikely that her older sister would like this kind of handsome young man.

Her criteria for choosing a partner in the game is always muscular, strong male characters!

Lu Chengzhou clearly does not meet this criterion.

"Perhaps my sister felt guilty towards me for beating Teacher Lu up like that?"

Thinking this way, Meng Wanyu barely managed to convince herself.

"However, I still need to go back as soon as possible and see my teacher Lu in person before I can truly feel at ease."

112. I want to study; studying makes me happy.

The holiday continues.

However, time was clearly running out.

Lu Chengzhou needs to set aside some time to do his homework.

The system gave me mastery of math and English, but nothing else.

Although both of these are the most important and helpful for other subjects, you still have to rely on yourself for the short essay in Chinese.

Lu Chengzhou spent a considerable amount of time completing this argumentative essay.

Judging by the time, Sister Meng probably won't ask him to play with her today.

I can't make a thousand yuan a day today, so I'll have to find some other part-time jobs to earn some pocket money.

I opened that job search app and started searching.

As always, there are many people seeking math tutoring.

However, there are very few wealthy patrons as generous as Meng Wanyu.

After searching for a while, Lu Chengzhou finally found one that was barely acceptable and sent it his job application.

The sponsor is online.

He was quickly told to go to the People's Hospital of Xihai District, to the third floor of the inpatient department.

"You're still in the hospital, and you're already thinking about studying?"

Lu Chengzhou had to give the other party a thumbs up for their diligence.

On second thought, Xihai District seems somewhat familiar.

The last time I went to Xu Qian's house, I passed through Xihai District.

"There are buses that you can take from here."

"Two yuan, and it'll be done in half an hour."

"However, we have to leave before 8:30 p.m., or we'll miss the last bus."

Lu Chengzhou had planned everything out, so he shouldered his backpack and set off.

……

Xihai District.

The inpatient department of the People's Hospital.

Ms. Xu, carrying a basket of fruit, rushed out of the elevator and ran towards the ward on the inner side.

Along the way, they attracted a lot of disapproving looks.

A nurse even called out to him, "Hey! Don't run like that in the hospital corridor!"

Then, another nurse called out to the woman, "Hey! Don't make loud noises in the hospital corridor."

Teacher Xu turned around and smiled apologetically.

"I'm sorry, my daughter is in the hospital, and I'm very worried."

With that, he plunged into the ward.

"Sissi!"

This earth-shattering shout startled the other patients in the ward, causing them to sit up as well.

I thought something bad had happened to a patient in one of the beds.

Xu Qian immediately covered her face with a book.

She hoped her father wouldn't see her; it was just too embarrassing...

Unfortunately, her father recognized her at a glance and rushed to her side.

"Sisi, why didn't you tell your dad you had a fever and were hospitalized?"

"It's not a big problem..."

Xu Qian thought to herself, "Thank goodness I didn't tell him."

Otherwise, she would have been driven crazy by the noise long ago.

The hospital might discharge her early because her elderly father is too noisy, in order to avoid disturbing other patients.

Teacher Xu looked her over carefully, remained silent for a long time, and then said, "You've lost weight, you need to eat more nourishing foods."

Xu Qian was startled: "I don't eat pigeon soup!"

Teacher Xu shook her head: "Then you can eat something else, how about turtle soup?"

Xu Qian firmly said, "I won't eat anything, you should go back now."

After thinking for a moment, Teacher Xu said, "Then I'll go buy a crocodile and stew it for you."

Xu Qian was on the verge of tears.

She reiterated that she didn't need to eat any strange things, especially not to drink health-preserving wines, and on the day she was discharged from the hospital, she resolutely refused to wear a red sweater.

Teacher Xu looked at her in surprise: "Qianqian, I haven't said anything yet, how did you know I was going to prepare health wine and a red sweater for you?"

Xu Qian thought to herself, "You've already done quite a lot of this."

My mom's closet contains at least ten identical red sweaters!

As for her wardrobe, there are at least five items!

My father looks like a big, burly man, but he's actually very superstitious.

He believed that patients should wear red sweaters when they are discharged from the hospital.

Only in this way can the evil influences be dispelled and the illness prevented from recurring.

However, it seems that this is not the case, otherwise my mother wouldn't have accumulated so many red sweaters.

……

In short, you still need to take good care of yourself.

Teacher Xu spoke in a very serious tone.

"Even though you are a girl, you can't neglect taking care of your body."

"From now on, you'll come with me for morning exercises!"

"A one-kilometer morning run every day, followed by ten sit-ups and fifty jump ropes every night!"

"Do you understand?"

Xu Qian shuddered and firmly shook her head in refusal.

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

She can barely accept a one-kilometer morning run, but how could she possibly accept anything longer, as it would take up her evening study time?

She has her exams coming up soon.

I wish I could practice my spoken English and memorize more words even while taking a shower!

Teacher Xu sighed and earnestly offered advice several times.

The result was always a firm refusal from her daughter.

"No way, Dad, I want to study. Studying makes me happy."
