After rebirth, they all moved into my house.

Obviously both of them felt it, but neither of them moved, maintaining this position tacitly.

There was a faint fragrance coming from Gu Jiuyi's body.

After getting up the next morning, Lu Yuan and his classmates came to the classroom early and started studying.

A week is enough time to cram at the last minute or cram a lot. Besides, there is no time for review in the first year of high school. You can take the exam based on what you have learned. This is fair to all students. How far you can review depends entirely on your own ability.

However, after returning to the classroom, Lu Yuan found that Tao Ye and Xiao Yida in the back seat were scratching their heads, looking at him, and then at Gu Jiuyi. To be honest, there was something wrong with their eyes.

"Brother Lu, can we discuss something?" Tao Ye said with a smile.

"What's the matter?" Lu Yuan answered in confusion.

"Hey, Brother Lu, didn't we hear that you would tutor the eldest lady in person? I, no, I thought about it after I went back, can you take me with you when you tutor? Fangxin, I won't disturb you, I just want to study hard with Brother Lu to improve my grades. As for the competition, Brother Lu, I can deduct some points from myself to compete with you, three points... five points for each subject, which means I can give you thirty points in the total score, as long as you are willing to stay late and teach me." Tao Ye said.

After returning home last night, Tao Ye lay in bed unable to fall asleep. He thought for a long time how it was possible that the combined scores of Lu Ge and Gu Jiuyi were higher than those of him and Xiao Yida.

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is not impossible. Brother Lu has a perfect score in science and is tutoring the young lady. In terms of science, let alone the young lady, even a pig can become a talent.

Teachers nowadays are so busy and cannot take care of so many students. At night, only teachers on duty are there, so I can’t ask questions even if I want to.

Several question marks appeared in Lu Yuan's mind, and he curled his lips, "You can ask Gu Jiuyi yourself."

Tao Ye smiled innocently, while Xiao Yida on the other side was already begging Gu Jiuyi.

Just like what Tao Ye thought, he also wanted to rely on Brother Lu, even if it was just to give him some guidance, but Gu Jiuyi thought about it seriously and then did the math for them.

"Look, I'm not even talking about Beijing. Just in Yunhai, a normal high school tutor or a private one-on-one teacher at a Mars cram school is 500 yuan per lesson. Lu Yuan's math and science proficiency is obvious to all. This standard of charge is very reasonable and not expensive, right? But we are classmates. Even if you can offer a lower price of 450 yuan, I'll give you 50 yuan off per lesson. Do you plan to pay per lesson, or do you plan to subscribe monthly or annually? You should know that Lu Yuan and I didn't save a penny in our three-year subscription. But for you, it's not impossible. If you subscribe for a year, then each lesson will be even cheaper, so it'll be 300 yuan!"

Tao Ye and Xiao Yida were stunned. What the hell? They were playing this game? It wasn't that Mars Tutoring was a scam, but the cut that went to the teachers definitely wasn't all that much. Strictly speaking, half was good enough. If Lu Ge was the idiot who let him tutor him like he did Gu Jiuyi, then that wasn't expensive. After all, Lu Ge's skills were there, recognized by the teacher himself.

But Lu Ge obviously listens to Gu Jiuyi. Does Gu Jiuyi need this little money? It seems that he doesn't need it. But he really spends 250 yuan for a lesson. Is he treating Lu Ge as an idiot or Gu Jiuyi as an idiot?

"Tell me when you've thought it over. Cash transfer is fine. Just give it directly to Lu Yuan." Gu Jiuyi turned around and continued reading.

"No, well, Miss, have you really been paying for it for three years?" Tao Ye asked.

Although the young lady said that one class cost 500 yuan and it was paid for three years, Tao Ye really didn't believe it. If it was paid like this for three years, the consumption would be extremely exaggerated. But even for a young lady, it shouldn't be that high, right?

"Well, yes, what's wrong?" Gu Jiuyi said after thinking for a while.

"That's too much. Forget it. I'd better rely on myself." Tao Ye wanted to say it was impossible, but after thinking about it, it seemed not impossible given the relationship between Gu Jiuyi and Lu Yuan.

Xiao Yida also gave up and decided to rely on himself.

Lu Yuan's group of four was also noticed by all the teachers. To be honest, it was rare to see such hardworking and studious students in the first year of high school. Even though this was No. 1 Middle School, except for those high schools that were particularly oppressive and those that hyped up their reputations and surrounding housing prices, the current first-year high school students were still learning while having fun.

The subject teacher didn't know that they had a bet, but he felt that the group of four suddenly became pleasing to the eye. Except for Lu Yuan who didn't pay attention in class and remained the same, the growth of the other three made them happy.

20. Second monthly exam for high school

The days that followed were really a loop. Every day I would get up and go to school, attend classes, review, preview, practice exercises, take tests, organize knowledge points, and go home to cook after school. It was boring and tedious, and there was no meaning at all.

The only difference is that Gu Jiuyi seems to be addicted to keeping accounts. She has to keep accounts every afternoon after school. Lu Yuan has to report the day's expenses, and she will write them down in a small notebook.

It’s outrageous to remember every penny!

But Lu Yuan didn't say anything. As long as Gu Jiuyi was happy, it was fine. Keeping accounts was a good habit anyway.

A week passed quickly and the second monthly exam arrived.

Examinations are actually very common. For Lu Yuan, who has experienced senior year of high school once, he is no longer surprised. However, most of his classmates are still not used to it.

This is also normal.

The exam lasts for two and a half days. Unlike the college entrance examination, it does not start at nine in the morning. Instead, there are two subjects on the afternoon of the first day, four subjects on the second day, and three subjects on the third day. After the exams, you can go home from school.

The exam is still divided into classes. There are twenty classes, and each class has nearly 50 students, so on average there are only 2-3 classmates in each examination room.

This time, Lu Yuan was not in the same examination room with Gu Jiuyi, but happened to be in the same examination room with Xiao Yida and Tao Ye.

But it doesn’t matter. I can just observe their reactions after the exam.

At two o'clock in the afternoon of the first day, Lu Yuan was sitting in his seat in the examination room, looking at the Chinese review materials. The first subject was Chinese, which was Lu Yuan's key study subject.

The exam was about to start in half an hour, and Lu Yuan ignored everyone else and just sat in his seat.

But he didn't expect that not long after he sat down, Xiao Yida and Tao Ye came over and started a little drama in front of him.

"Our Chinese culture, spanning five thousand years, is ingrained deep within our bones. Brother, what do you think of this Chinese language test?"

"Of course I haven't done any Chinese homework in a week. I'm taking time out to review other subjects."

"Oh? Confucius said, 'Review the old to learn the new.' Brother, aren't you afraid of anything going wrong?"

"Didn't you say it's ingrained in my bones? How can I not take the exam without preparation?"

"That's right, hahahaha!"

"Hahahaha!"

Lu Yuan glanced at them and said nothing. It was true that Chinese was much simpler than other subjects, but that was only in the first year of high school. When they reached the second year of high school and studied "On the Qin Dynasty" and "Fu on the Afang Palace", etc., let's see if they would still laugh.

Although ancient poetry and prose account for a small proportion and modern Chinese reading seems simple, the scores for modern Chinese reading are often very low. After all, the examiner has the final say on what the author thinks, not the author's words.

Lu Yuan knew very well that an exam is a war, and the war does not begin the moment you pick up the pen, but has already started before the exam.

The exams are not just about knowledge, but also about information, connections, and financial resources. These are all essential. This is the imaginary war that these talented people must participate in with all their might, and it is called—

Monthly exam!

Ersha was still chattering away, but Lu Yuan just ignored him.

When most of the students arrived at the examination room, Tao Ye looked at Lu Yuan. Seeing that Lu Yuan was not taking the trick at all, he could not help but feel a little bored. So he leaned over Lu Yuan's desk and asked:

"Brother Lu, aren't you bored? You've been sitting here all the time. I'm actually pretty nervous. I didn't review physics well enough this time, and physics will be the second subject soon."

Lu Yuan replied calmly, "Calm down. Being nervous now won't help you get any extra points."

"Brother Lu, you're not nervous at all?"

"Of course, I believe in my own abilities. I just need to use what I have accumulated over time."

Although Lu Yuan's answer was very calm, Tao Ye and Xiao Yida even felt a sense of superiority in their hearts, as if to say that he was sure to win this competition.

However, only Lu Yuan knew that no one knew the pressure he was under. Compared with the king, what was the pressure of the challenger?

He is a senior high school student. Others may get bad grades unexpectedly, but he can't. If he gets bad grades once, it may not only affect Gu Jiuyi's tutoring and the teacher's care for him, but most importantly, he will have to call two idiots dads.

"I will never lose!"

Lu Yuan murmured softly and looked up at the clock on the wall. It was 2:20 in the afternoon and it was time to start the exam.

He collected the test materials and began to take the test.

The three-day exam passed quickly.

For Lu Yuan, apart from spending some time on the first subject, Chinese, the rest was just a mess.

Xu Ruolin and Ye Yuhan didn't review from the beginning. They couldn't find any reason to review.

Gu Jiuyi was writing very seriously.

Xiao Yida and Tao Ye were writing the test papers very nervously. They didn't want to lose. After all, this was a rare opportunity to take advantage of Brother Lu. Once the eldest lady's grades improved, they would have no chance anymore.

After finishing the last exam, Lu Yuan packed up his study materials and prepared to go downstairs to his class to pack up and go home.

Just as he yawned and lamented how boring the exam was, a pair of slender, tender hands suddenly covered his eyes from behind, and then a long voice echoed in his ears:

"Guess who I am~"

Lu Yuan didn't even think about it and replied directly:

"Stop it, Jiuyi."

Lu Yuan knew that the only people who could play like this were a certain president and a certain silver-haired girl. However, he was not deaf and could tell it was Gu Jiuyi just by the voice.

Lu Yuan turned his head slowly, wanting to reach out and rub Gu Jiuyi's cheek fiercely, but when he saw the person in front of him, he instantly stopped his hand in mid-air, "Sister Yuzhu... why are you here?"

A truly unexpected person.

"Hahahahaha cough cough cough cough——"

Shen Yuzhu covered her mouth and burst into laughter, but suddenly she started coughing while laughing. She didn't act like a lady at all. The classmates around her were a little surprised. They knew Lu Yuan and the silver-haired girl who often followed him. How could this silver-haired girl change her appearance in the blink of an eye?

Lu Yuan patted Shen Yuzhu's back helplessly, and asked helplessly: "Sister Yuzhu, why are you here?"

Shen Yuzhu stretched her waist and patted Lu Yuan's shoulder. "Weren't you just calling me Yiyi? How come you've changed your mind so quickly?"

I also want to recognize you as Gu Jiuyi! Lu Yuan complained loudly in his heart, but he really couldn't say it out loud.

Although Shen Yuzhu still looks like a girl, she is wearing a casual black shirt and gray suit today. The choker and necklace on her neck let others know at a glance that she is not a high school student!

It can also easily cause misunderstandings among people who know her!

Lu Yuan asked helplessly, "Sister, aren't you busy? Why did you have time to come to Yunhai today?"

Shen Yuzhu smiled and explained, "I didn't have any plans for this weekend. It just so happened that Yiyi has been in Yunhai for two months, so I came to visit her."

21. Picking up my brother from school (3K words)

Shen Yuzhu said that she came to find Gu Jiuyi. As a mother, she must be worried about her daughter staying here alone. Lu Yuan knew it very well, so he nodded.

"Okay then, sister, come with me. Jiuyi and I are in the same class."

Lu Yuan shook the stationery in his hand, indicating that he wanted to go back and put his things away, but Shen Yuzhu grabbed him.

"Hey, don't be so inflexible. It's a rare trip for me to Yunhai. Just ask your classmates to bring your schoolbag out. I'll take you to a nice place!"

Shen Yuzhu winked at Lu Yuan and made a gesture to silence him, "Keep it quiet, don't tell Yiyi."

"What are you doing? You look like you're going to do something bad, and you can't tell Gu Jiuyi. Sister, do you know that I'm a student representative from a middle school? I won't do anything bad with you!"

"It's okay, will my sister hurt you?"

"……meeting!"

"Stop talking nonsense and follow me!"

Shen Yuzhu ignored Lu Yuan's wishes and dragged Lu Yuan away. Lu Yuan had no choice but to find a classmate passing by and ask him to help take out his schoolbag. Then Lu Yuan followed Shen Yuzhu out of the school gate.

It has to be said that Gu Jiuyi's personality of doing whatever she wants is completely inherited from her mother.

Shen Yuzhu's car was parked in a roadside parking space opposite the main entrance of the school. The fiery red Ferrari convertible reflected the glittering light under the sun. Whether it was classmates passing by after school or parents who came to pick up their children, they couldn't help but take a few more glances at the car.

Looking at the sports car from a distance, Lu Yuan knew it belonged to Shen Yuzhu without asking. He said expressionlessly, "Sister, can't you park the car further away?"

"What's wrong? Don't you like it?" Shen Yuzhu said with a faint smile.

"Sister, are you really completely unaware of your appearance? Jiuyi is so popular in school, and she looks just like you. If I don't say anything, everyone will think it was Jiuyi who drove a Ferrari to pick me up. This is school, and it's only high school. What if I leave a special impression on my classmates? How can a rich girl keep you, the vice president of the student union and the new student representative?"

Shen Yuzhu smiled and pointed at the fiery red sports car:

"Want it?"

"think."

Lu Yuan covered his mouth instantly and accidentally told the truth. He didn't even dare to look at Shen Yuzhu's smiling face that was teasing him.

Shen Yuzhu ruffled Lu Yuan's hair as if coaxing a child. "Anyway, didn't Yiyi give you that card? If you want to buy it, go ahead and buy it. I don't mind your small amount of money. But remember to take Jiuyi for a ride next time."

Lu Yuan was incredibly shocked. On the one hand, Shen Yuzhu actually knew about this but didn't blame Gu Jiuyi for giving him the card, nor did she even think about taking it back. On the other hand, seven million was just a small amount? Just a small amount?!

But considering her family conditions, it seems reasonable.

At this time, Shen Yuzhu suddenly clapped her hands, put them together, blinked at Lu Yuan and said:

"Actually, I've always had a dream. One day, I'd be able to pick up my brother from school as his older brother. I'd be driving the coolest sports car, wearing some seriously cool clothes, and saying, 'Get in the car!' Then, as his classmates looked on with envy, I'd step on the accelerator, the engine roared, and in a flash, I'd be off with him in style. Unfortunately, I don't have a younger brother, so I'd have to trouble Xiaoluyuan!"

Lu Yuan nodded in admiration. He was really handsome, but if this happened to him, he felt that he would be busy enough if he went back tonight or next week.

After crossing the road with Shen Yuzhu and almost reaching the car, Lu Yuan saw two familiar figures in front of him. He was stunned and hurriedly wanted to hold Shen Yuzhu to tell her not to be angry.

Although he knew that handsome sports cars were attractive, what was the point of sneaking up next to someone else's car and posing for photos?

Fortunately, these two people still have some self-awareness. They didn't hit other people's cars. They just posed crazily for photos, obviously looking like they were going to post them on WeChat Moments in the evening.

"Brother Lu?" Tao Ye had just finished taking a group of photos. When he saw Lu Yuan and the silver-haired beauty behind him, he thought it was Gu Jiuyi who had changed clothes. He didn't pay much attention and didn't care much. Instead, he said to Lu Yuan excitedly: "Brother Lu, you don't know, I checked this sports car online before, it's a limited edition!"

"Yes, yes, Brother Lu, don't just stand there. Hurry up and pose. I'll take a picture of you. I won't be able to take a picture when the owner of the car comes!" Xiao Yida said excitedly.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but cover his face. Shen Yuzhu looked at him with a smile but didn't say anything.

Tao Ye and Xiao Yida seemed to realize that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and hurriedly looked at Lu Yuan and "Gu Jiuyi", but unexpectedly found that "Gu Jiuyi"'s temperament had changed a lot, it was simply... two different people!

"Um... classmate Gu Jiuyi?"

Tao Ye and Xiao Yida touched their hair and looked at the woman in front of them with silver hair and a black shirt, who looked exactly like Gu Jiuyi. They were a little confused.
