27: Chapter 27 Little Shen, you can come and stay at my house from now on.

Ye Lingtao's scheme, of course, did not succeed.

Early the next morning, he went to talk to Ning Xi and Gao Xiaomei.

Ning Xi was hesitant at first, but after hearing him say that he and Shen Weiyue were good brothers who should advance and retreat together, she stopped speaking.

That Gao Xiaomei was a chubby girl who was usually reticent, but this time she was truly annoyed.

"Ye Lingtao, are you dreaming? My seat is next to the top scholar and the runner-up; why on earth would I swap with you?"

"Student Gao, I'm just trying to negotiate with you. If you swap with me, I'll owe you a huge favor, and there will definitely be a generous reward in the future!"

"A generous reward? Can you give me money or a person? How about this: if you want me to agree to swap, it's not impossible, but you have to write a statement and sign it—if I can't find anyone to marry in the future, I'll marry you..."

"You... how can you force a man like this? Can't we just talk about our classmate friendship? Why does it have to be a transaction..."

Ye Lingtao gasped, shocked by Gao Xiaomei's idea.

Shen Weiyue laughed so hard he spat out his water, Ning Xi was covering her face and gasping for breath, and even the usually icy Zhao Qingyan curled the corners of her mouth.

"Can you change to a different condition?" Ye Lingtao, still unwilling to give up, pressed on.

"No. I can tell you're not sincere. Go back to your own seat; I'm not swapping!" Gao Xiaomei slapped the desk with her chubby hand, making Ye Lingtao stumble back three steps.

"Laugh, laugh, laugh, what the hell are you laughing at." Ye Lingtao grumbled as he kicked Shen Weiyue's chair, then adjusted his middle-part bangs. "It's too terrifying; she actually covets my handsome appearance."

"Pfft, you think you're handsome? Go take a piss and look at yourself. See where you compare to a single hair on Shen Weiyue. Do you think Class Monitor Zhao just casually agrees to have a deskmate? Have some self-awareness..."

Gao Xiaomei cursed loudly, not noticing at all that after saying this, Zhao Qingyan's brows immediately furrowed.

Zhao the Fox turned her head and gave her a faint look, and Gao Xiaomei immediately shut her mouth.

As for Ye Lingtao, after being rebuffed, he slunk back to his seat, unable to lift his head because a group of his friends were winking and laughing at him.

"You kid, studying is fake, wanting to chase Ning Xi is the real reason, right? Do you think we can't tell?"

"I'm not, I didn't..."

"Heh, you and Sect Leader Yue are in cahoots. Seeing him gain the favor of the School Beauty, you want to follow suit and approach the Vice School Beauty?"

"Shut up, I really just want to study!"

A commotion suddenly started in the back, and Shen Weiyue couldn't help but laugh and cry.

After the seat-swapping incident, the first class was English.

Liang Yuting was the same as usual; as soon as she walked into the classroom, she was the center of attention. Shen Weiyue felt that her classic black-and-white outfit today was particularly elegant.

A minimalist, loose-collared, textured white long-sleeved shirt tucked into a black hip-hugging skirt that fell below the knees, with the top half of her curly hair tied back and draped over her shoulders, and a pair of black flats on her feet.

Elegant yet intellectual, simple yet sophisticated.

Her smile was directed first at Shen Weiyue, then spread to the others. She said brightly, "Everyone did very well on the Mock Exam 2, so Teacher is very happy today. You are all great!"

"There are a few students whose English grades have improved significantly this time: Huang Zheng, Cui Xiaoyue, Shen Weiyue... special commendations."

Liang Yuting led the applause, and the whole class gave another round of applause to these few guys in the class.

And it was estimated that there would be a similar process in the upcoming classes of other subjects.

"Now, let's start reviewing the test papers. I will try to finish in half a class period, and then if you have any questions, you can come and ask me."

Liang Yuting asked everyone to take out their test papers, then looked back at the blackboard, which hadn't been cleaned well. She frowned and wiped it herself, but it was a bit high.

"Shen Weiyue, come help me wipe the blackboard."

Shen Weiyue gladly went up to the podium. When he took the eraser from her hand, Liang Yuting nodded and smiled sweetly.

The boys in the audience were so envious their eyes turned red. They clearly saw this scene; that bastard Cultural Reference had good grades, and even his opportunities to interact with the beautiful teacher had increased.

Toward the end of the lesson, Liang Yuting even took out Shen Weiyue's essay to review separately, which made people marvel.

Partiality, Teacher Liang was also starting to show partiality.

Zhao Qingyan couldn't help but glance at Shen Weiyue several times during this class, making him feel uncomfortable.

"No, why do you keep looking at me like that?" Shen Weiyue asked.

Zhao Qingyan didn't speak; she snatched his English test paper and carefully examined the essay.

After looking at it for a dozen seconds, her eyes showed surprise.

"Individual tutoring, is the effect this obvious?"

"Perhaps I have a talent for English?"

"Heh."

Zhao Qingyan sneered and turned her head to look at the clouds outside the window.

Shen Weiyue was so angry he wanted to grab her and spank her; how could someone be this tsundere?

She deserves to have no friends!

...

The scenes of special commendation continued from morning to afternoon. As expected, all the teachers gave Shen Weiyue high praise.

Everyone was praising him, except for Zhao Qingyan, who poured cold water on him: "Don't be arrogant or complacent. You only scored 663 points; there is still a lot of room for improvement."

"My god, how can you say such cold words with your 37-degree mouth? Are you not even willing to give me one night of happiness?"

Shen Weiyue looked at her through gritted teeth and said viciously, "Zhao the Fox, I often have the urge to beat you up!"

"Oh, then go ahead and hit me."

"You... damn it..."

Shen Weiyue slapped the table, and as the bell rang, he bolted out of the classroom. Her mouth shouldn't be used for talking.

On the way home, Ye Lingtao was very discouraged and kept asking him: "Shen Weiyue, do you think I'm so ugly that I only deserve to find a fat woman?"

It seemed that Gao Xiaomei's personal attack on him made him feel worse than falling behind Shen Weiyue in grades.

"Taozi, there's a saying that all fat people might be potential stocks. If they slim down, they might look really good. Do you want to hold onto that position long-term and see? What if it hits the daily limit one day?"

"Impossible. I will never in my life fall for a fat woman like Gao Xiaomei."

Ye Lingtao threw away his cola bottle in frustration and made up his mind to work hard and definitely regain a ranking above Shen Weiyue.

After the two parted ways at the fork in the road, Shen Weiyue didn't run into Liang Yuting in the alley, so he waited for a while on purpose.

Sure enough, not long after, Liang Yuting appeared gracefully in his line of sight. Seeing him waiting for her, she smiled and said, "Student Shen, did you not find me to hand in your essay? If you are really in a hurry in the future, you can come to my home to find me."

Shen Weiyue asked in surprise, "Is this... convenient?"

"It's not like you haven't been here before. There are only two months left. Our subject teachers were all discussing today whether we should try working together to see if we can help you create another miracle."

"Is it to let me get into the top ten in Mock Exam 3?"

"What if it's to aim for Tsinghua or Peking University?"

Liang Yuting tilted her head and smiled.

Oh my god.
