After rebirth, they all moved into my house.

"give me back!"

Lu Yuan took advantage of his long arms and raised her phone above his head. No matter how hard Gu Jiuyi stretched out her hand, she couldn't reach it.

"I'll return it to you after you finish this test paper." He held a test paper in front of Gu Jiuyi. When she saw the test paper, her eyelids twitched.

"Miss, it's already five minutes past seven. Delaying it any further will only waste our time. I'll still take the money."

This is Lu Yuan’s job, to improve the performance of this young lady.

"Tsk, I'll do it. Just give me back my phone first."

"Okay, then you have to finish it in 40 minutes. Go to your room and write it."

Gu Jiuyi rolled her eyes at him, took the test paper, picked up the tablet and placed it on her lap.

Lu Yuan scratched his head in embarrassment. He had neglected to mention that the other person was a girl, and it was not appropriate to go directly into someone else's room.

He found a seat in the restaurant nearby and sat down to do his homework for tonight.

Gu Jiuyi looked at Lu Yuan, a boy of the same age as her, and pouted.

…………

"The test paper has been corrected."

"Um…"

"You got several questions right. Good job."

"Oh."

"The break is over, let's start the second period."

"No."

Lu Yuan took a deep breath and told himself to calm down.

Looking at the test paper in his hand, he could roughly understand the level of this girl.

There is absolutely no foundation!

I got several multiple-choice questions right.

She is now in the first year of high school, which means we need to bring her from zero to the normal level of a first year high school student.

"Miss, stop playing. Studying is very necessary."

"What a hassle~" She lay on the sofa, operating the tablet, unwilling to get up.

Lu Yuan was very upset. No wonder he was given his salary in advance. They were afraid that he would run away!

"Miss, please get up. If you don't, I will call Uncle Gu." This was fake. In fact, he didn't even know her father. His salary was directly transferred to the bank card linked to his school, and the information of the transferor could not be found.

"Well…"

Gu Jiuyi reluctantly put down the tablet and sat next to Lu Yuan.

"Then finish it quickly."

Lu Yuan didn't pay much attention to her words and asked her, "Where is your textbook? Bring it here."

"No."

"What?"

"I just moved to Yunhai, so of course I didn't bring textbooks or anything like that." She said this as a matter of course, not thinking there was anything wrong with it.

“…” Lu Yuan’s sanity value dropped sharply, but he still persisted.

"So do you have any notebooks or something?"

"Yes, I can write it down on the tablet." She took out a capacitive stylus and wrote on the tablet.

Lu Yuan taught Gu Jiuyi step by step. Although he had expected this, he did not expect it to be to this extent. He would have to print a few more copies of the information when he came tomorrow.

There is no other way today, I can only explain to her the more basic questions in the test paper so that she can have some impression.

"Speaking of which, are you interested in liberal arts or science?" When the get out of class was about to end, Lu Yuan suddenly thought of a question.

"Why are you asking this?" Gu Jiuyi was a little curious as to why Lu Yuan suddenly asked this.

"After all, we'll be divided into different subjects at the end of the semester, and there's only a few months left. Planning ahead will help us identify key points and areas that need improvement."

"I can do it."

"?"

"Because I haven't started school yet, I don't want to think about it."

"Did you ask for leave?"

"No, I didn't even enroll."

He couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand. There were so many things to complain about that he didn't know where to start.

"Let's end today's class here. Please add my contact information. You can ask me if you have any questions."

"Um…"

Lu Yuan added her on WeChat and was stunned when he saw her profile.

Region: Bowang

Is she from Bowang?

"I'm going to take a shower, bye." After saying that, she left the living room without looking back and walked up the stairs.

"See you tomorrow."

After leaving Gu Jiuyi's home, Lu Yuan returned to his own home along the same route.

"I am back."

Well, no one responded again.

Fortunately, he has gotten used to it. It is now past nine o'clock in the evening. After taking a shower, he will prepare the materials for tomorrow's class for Gu Jiuyi. He should have another hour to review.

There is no need to maintain the review state of the third year of high school from the first year of high school. The most important thing is to combine work and rest.

…………

Lu Yuan, hasn’t he come back yet?

Xu Ruolin stayed on the balcony for a long time. She would look down at the community building every once in a while, but she didn't see Lu Yuan. She didn't know where she went and didn't choose to follow her.

She never expected that Lu Yuan would rush home after school, have dinner and go out again.

I clicked on his personal interface countless times, wanting to add him as a friend, but couldn't bring myself to do it.

I took a deep breath and told myself to calm down. Lu Yuan might just have something to do.

Huh? A figure suddenly appeared downstairs, wearing a No. 1 Middle School uniform. It was Lu Yuan! He's back!

What should I do? Should I pretend to run into him by chance? Or should I run into him in the elevator while shopping at the supermarket?

Or should I wait for him to come home, then pretend to be about to go out, open the door and meet him?

What to say when you meet?

Hmm…

I was so angry and really wanted to talk to Lu Yuan, but he was pretending not to know me, so it was difficult to expose him.

Oh no, I think I’ve been thinking too much. Has Lu Yuan returned?

Xu Ruolin hurried to the entrance, but just as he was about to open the door, he heard the sound of a door closing outside.

"..."

Missed it again...

She bit her lip, feeling somewhat unwilling.

He opened the door and came to Lu Yuan's house.

I really want to tell you to let me in, but it’s not the time yet.

Ok?

Wait, this smell...

Xu Ruolin smelled it carefully...

Perfume? !

Mixed with the smell of Lu Yuan?

She slowly took two steps back, somewhat unable to accept...

Did Lu Yuan go out to see another woman?

why?

Is there something wrong with her?

"The road is long..."

She wanted to go forward and knock on the door, but the hand that was knocking on the door did not fall.

She returned to her room and lay down on the bed, shielding her eyes with her arms.

It must be a misunderstanding. Maybe I was just squeezed together with a woman on the bus or subway and smelled her perfume.

Xu Ruolin was still willing to believe Lu Yuan.

It must be a misunderstanding, Lu Yuan?

18. Unexpected Encounter

“…Good morning, Xu Ruolin.”

"Good morning, Lu Yuan."

The next morning, Lu Yuan slept ten minutes late and got up at 6:10, ten minutes later than usual.

Last night, in order to prepare lessons for Gu Jiuyi, he accidentally exceeded the budgeted time, but he was unwilling to reduce the review by an hour, so he had to go to bed a little later, which caused him to get up late.

But it was because he got up late that he happened to open the door and ran into Xu Ruolin.

Xu Ruolin glanced at the entrance of Lu Yuan's house and confirmed that there were no other people's shoes in the shoe cabinet. She breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she had misunderstood last night. Lu Yuan just accidentally got the scent of another woman on him and did not bring that woman home.

"What a coincidence! Do we want to go to school together?" Lu Yuan was a little embarrassed. He didn't want to see Xu Ruolin yet, but now that they met by chance, it would not be nice to just leave without saying something.

"Um…"

Faced with Xu Ruolin's lukewarm attitude, Lu Yuan didn't care too much.

The two took the elevator together and walked back to school together.

Lu Yuan is ahead, Xu Ruolin is behind.

He always subconsciously reached out his hands to his side, but when he didn't catch anything, he would pull his hands back.

I really want to find some topics to talk about, but Lu Yuan knows very well that Xu Ruolin can't talk about anything other than studying at this time.

"Speaking of which..."

"Student Lu Yuan seemed to come back very late last night. Did he go somewhere?"

"Huh? I went to work. By the way, classmate Xu, how did you know?" Lu Yuan's eyelids twitched. How did Xu Ruolin know that he came home late?

"When you came back last night, I was just about to go out and heard the door close on your side."

"Oh, I see." Fortunately, I went home a few seconds early last night and didn't run into him.

She didn't ask where Lu Yuan was working. It was meaningless. She knew Lu Yuan's family situation. Moving here was indeed beyond her expectations. But she thought that to make a living, working was essential. It was just...

"Student Lu Yuan should also make sure to rest. It's great to gain social experience, but you need to balance work and rest."

"Well, thank you for the reminder." Lu Yuan suddenly felt inexplicably touched. Xu Ruolin actually cared about him!

"Studying is important, and it would be bad if it affects your grades."

"..."

Lu Yuan was a little amused and confused. It turned out that studying was more important to Xu Ruolin.

Bad woman, spend your whole life studying and don’t think about me anymore!
