So, that night, Student Wu and Student Wei studied together.
There were a hundred different ways to self-study, and they were all good, but different from one another.
For example, Wei Yan’s RNA approach meant that he had to first do a warm-up with biology, supplemented by physics and chemistry, and then he could solve thousands of questions without feeling fatigue. On the other hand, Wu Jin would exert himself evenly, alternating between the arts and the sciences. He often did dozens of questions, then switched to doing one or two eye exercises before continuing.
Therefore, if he wanted to see what a person was good at, he had to study with them first.
In the study room.
Wu Jin held his carrot pen and secretly observed Student Wei.
Wu Jin finished two eye exercises and continued observing Student Wei.
Wu Jin finished another half of his test paper, quietly stroked the little rabbit for a while, then observed Student Wei some more…
The self-study session ended.
“……” Wu Jin was going crazy? How come this person didn’t do any test questions at all!
In those two hours, Wei Shi took a nap, snatched Wu Jin’s carrot pen and played with it, placed the rabbit on Wu Jin’s pencil case, and stared thoughtfully at Wu Jin’s small curls. He messed around overtly and covertly.
Now, Wei Shi was in a good mood and expressed that they should study together again next time.
After school ended at 9PM, the entrance to Crosson Private was crowded with private cars that had been sent over to pick up students. One of them, a Maybach, was particularly conspicuous in the crowd.
The car door opened, and the bodyguards to the left and right bowed simultaneously, “Young Master Wei!”
Students ABCDE by the side of the road: “……” Holy shit, this person was really flashy!
Wei Shi found an angle with the best light and shadows beneath the streetlights and turned 90 degrees in the most domineering posture. He wanted Wu Jin to remember this unforgettable scene and fall in love with him at first sight––
As soon as Wei Shi turned back, he found that Wu Jin had already run off half a kilometer away and was happily buying cakes by the bus stop.
Wei Shi: “……”
From then on, Student Wu and Student Wei began to study together.
Student Wei Shi hid his skills deeply, basically only looking at the test papers and not moving his pen. Wu Jin had only ever seen him write once––his problem solving method was brutal and domineering; it shook the sky, caused the earth to tremble, and made ghosts cry and gods shiver!
This kind of explosive answering style made Wu Jin vaguely remember something from R-Code back then. However on closer examination, he could find no traces of it.
However, the two of them finally got to know each other.
During the first English class in the morning, Wei Shi continued to sleep at the desk. Teacher Ying knocked on the table and asked, “Student on the fifth row with the glasses, please translate…”
Wei Shi didn’t even lift his head as he took off his glasses and tossed them on the table.
“……” Wu Jin had no choice but to wear the glasses, stand up, and translate obediently.
At noon, the Crosson canteen was filled with people. Wei Shi made two delivery orders and led Wu Jin to the small gate.
Crosson Private’s gates didn’t open at noon, but delivery could be pulled in via ropes from the outside.
There was a lot of shouting at the entrance to the small gate:
“Senior Two, Class Nine, King of Hearts, beef noodles with extra beef”
“Senior Two, Class Seven, Phantom Caesar, a family-sized bucket of fried chicken”…
Wu Jin waited for a long time. When he smelled the scent of handheld wraps, Wu Jin ran towards the low wall. He heard the delivery man behind the wall shouting, “Senior Two, Class Seven, Little Rabbit Wu, two handheld wrap sets––”
Wu Jin: “… My name isn’t Little Rabbit Wu!”
The delivery person: “Then, don’t take Little Rabbit Wu’s delivery order.”
Wu Jin was going to go crazy, “… This is my delivery.”
The delivery person: “Then, if you aren’t Little Rabbit Wu, who is?”
Wu Jin picked up the two handheld wrap sets and stormed off to find Wei Shi to discuss this method of ordering delivery.
Wei Shi expressed calmly that not revealing one’s real name was the first step in protecting one’s privacy.
So, at noon the next day, Wu Jin ordered a meal with the name Little Rabbit Wei.
The same delivery person.
The delivery person laughed loudly, “Aren’t you yesterday’s Little Rabbit Wu? Little Rabbit Wu, Little Rabbit Wei, are you two dating behind the school’s back?”
Wu Jin: “……!!!”
One week later, Wu Jin finally figured out Wei Shi’s weakness.
The old and new kings of analytical geometry both leaned towards science and general knowledge, but struggled with language comprehension.
Two weeks later, Wu Jin tossed Student Wei’s weakness to the back of his head, and the two of them even played basketball together after school.
Three weeks later, Crosson Private’s mock exam scores came out.
Two examination papers were placed upside down on the desk. The classroom was filled with noise.
Some people were forced to take off ‘the mathematical light of mock exams’ from their nameplate, and some ecstatically added ‘comprehensive formula user’. Some bet the titles on their nameplate on the scores in the mock exam, and others were scrambling to pass around Wei Yan’s full score sample biology exam.
In the fifth row of the classroom, Wu Jin and Wei Shi sat on the left and right sides of the desk, their math papers flipped over.
Both of them were equally confident about their scores.
Wu Jin put forward the condition, “If my score is higher than yours, you can’t write Little Rabbit Wu when you order meals in the future.”
Wei Shi nodded. “If your score isn’t as high as mine…”
Wu Jin’s eyes grew wide.
Wei Shi: “Let me play with your nameplate for a day.”
Wu Jin: ???
It had been less than a month since Wei Shi transferred to their school. So far, his nameplate had remained empty, and even the ‘free gift’ title from the educational administration hadn’t been used.
Some people said that Wei Shi wanted to remain removed from such things until the college entrance examination, while others said that Wei Shi was aiming at Wu Jin’s nameplate. He intended to take ‘Complex reasoning puzzle breaker, legal successor to the throne of analytic geometry in Azure City, guardian of the Crosson Show national examination high score’ for his own use.
However, even Wu Jin, who’d spent nearly a month with him, couldn’t guess what his intentions were.
An agreement was reached.
The two exam papers were flipped over.
A full score was 150. Wu Jin 149, Wei Shi 150.
Wu Jin banged his head against the desk, “…. Ahhhhhwahhhhh!”
Wei Shi raised his eyebrows. Wu Jin tentatively picked up his deskmate’s exam paper. The writing was vigorous, powerful, and willful. The neat and uniform ‘solution’, ‘known’, and ‘inferable’ columns were all meticulous, and the format of the test paper was almost the same as class monitor Wei Yan’s––
To be precise, it was almost identical to Wei Yan and Mao Dongqing.
R-Code Cram School style.
Wu Jin was stunned.
His guess had finally been verified.
Wei Shi had also come from the R-Code Cram School. So, he––
Around the aisle, there were still a group of students competing for Wei Yan’s biology test paper. Ming Yao was having the most fun; Little Ming who didn’t like to learn, he just liked to join in on the bustle. At this time, Wei Yan happened to be absent, and some people began to talk about their class monitor’s ‘experience in R-Code Cram School’. Ming Yao immediately picked up the thread of the gossip.
“R-Code Cram School? I know about it! It’s that revolutionary cram school!”
“Half a year ago, the students’ dopamine secretion was blocked due to drug interference! It caused a storm across the whole city! Treatment? … Hey, it’s not that it can’t be treated.”
“At the time, the city government invested a lot of resources to save the R-Code reformed students, and really managed to come up with an idea. Don’t say it in front of the class monitor, or he’ll beat me. But this is the truth!”
“Think about it, what do you have to do to promote quick dopamine secretion? Of course, it’s falling in love… Ahhh, class monitor, when did you come back?”
In the fifth row of the classroom, Wei Shi looked at Wu Jin in satisfaction.
Wu Jin: “???”
Beside their desks, Red had heard bits and pieces of the conversation and began to stir things up.
Red scratched his head and looked at Caesar, “When it comes to love, I quite like that class flower next door. Say, do you think I have a chance…”
Caesar was looking at his 30 point chemistry paper, “What? Flower? There’s no flower, hey.”
In the front row, S. Qu picked up a copy of <Study God Big Brother: If you don’t fall in love, you’ll die> from beneath her test papers and began to read it. Zoe was very moved, talking emotionally about how R-Code Cram School students had the privilege of dating openly in school. The earlier Wei Yan lost his single dog status, the better.
In the front row, Thin Fire expressed that skin care was more important than love. And beside them, Red finally straightened out Caesar’s logic.
Caesar: “If you want to date, you have to do it behind P.D. and the Disciplinary Committee’s backs. Who around us is dating out in the open…”
Red: “Hey, the big boss is. He openly transferred schools and came to pursue people…”
Wu Jin had excellent hearing.
Red’s big boss was Wei Shi.
Wei Shi had come to openly chase someone?! Who was he pursuing? Other than sleeping in class, this person didn’t interact with anyone!
Wu Jin returned the test paper to Wei Shi.
Wei Shi gave Wu Jin a deep look.
Wu Jin was confused.
Wu Jin was thoughtful.
Wu Jin suddenly came to a realization!
Wu Jin was stunned!
Wu Jin’s score was one point lower than Wei Shi in the math exam. He was willing to bet and willing to lose, so he gave his nameplate to the other party.
Student Wei expressed that he would give it back in a week.
One week later… that would be the day when the two of them had their peak level duel––but he couldn’t think so far into the future right now.
That night, Wu Jin quivered and hugged his small schoolbag, gingerly swiped his card to take the bus, and trembled as he went home and sat at his desk.
Student Wei had entered school for less than a month and had only spoken two or three words to Ming Yao, Wei Yan, and Zoe. He’d been punished twice by Teacher Ying, and criticized once by Teacher Blood Pigeon.
Student Wei… he hadn’t come to chase a teacher, had he?!
Wu Jin was shocked. After all, Ying Xiangxiang had only spoken four sentences to Wei Shi in total:
“Student Wei, stand outside for punishment.”
“Time’s up, come back.”
“Student Wei, stand outside for punishment.”
“Come back.”
Wu Jin opened up the rabbit cage and kneaded the little rabbit on the desk for a while.
Wei Shi had talked with him a lot… but he couldn’t be chasing after him! It was absolutely impossible! He was just an ordinary Little Witch!
When he thought of this, Wu Jin’s heart finally settled back down.
After he went home, Wu Jin happily continued to roam around in the sea of test questions for a while, then slept according to a primary school student’s work and rest schedule.
The little white rabbit on the table held onto the little rabbit toy that Wei Shi had given him, while Wu Jin hugged a pillow on the 1.2 meter single bed.
Wu Jin had a dream. The Little Witch in his dream came back late, the meat on his bones exhausted until almost nothing was left. On the way, he met Student Wei from afar. Little Witch was scared and even cast away his bones. Student Wei obtained the bones, his eyes curved like a child’s, his mind satisfied…
A few kilometers away, in the Wei Family courtyard, on a big luxurious bed that was dozens of meters wide, Student Wei also had a dream. In his dream, the ordinary Little Witch’s feet fluttered, the clay figurine Little Witch’s eyes were blurred, and two Little Witches walked past…
The next morning, Wu Jin got up early and began to investigate Student Wei’s R-Code Cram School background.
Ming Yao, who was on duty, also arrived early.
Ming Yao especially liked to be on duty because it meant he wouldn’t have to go downstairs and do class exercises. He could cheer for Zuo Botang enthusiastically from the balcony on the fourth floor.
Therefore, Zuo Botang was the only one in school who had background music during the class exercise period.
But that was off-topic––Wu Jin had specifically picked a time when Ming Yao would be at school because Ming Yao was the king of gossip in Crosson Private High School.
Little Ming held the broom and said thoughtfully, “Wei Shi? I remember his S650 limited edition Maybach. That’s the Wei Family’s car. Last year, the head of the Wei Family passed away, and subfamilies were all fighting amongst themselves until the eldest young master came out of nowhere and suppressed them all. Oh, that’s not quite right, he suppressed the whole scene!”
“Speaking of which, that eldest young master had indeed disappeared for a while. It was said that he’d been forced into a fully closed door cram school for a period of time…”
Wu Jin thought to himself, if their life story was a short sand sculpture story, then Ming Yao would definitely be the one taking on the role of providing all the background introductions and narration.
Ming Yao suddenly hesitated, then said, “Your current gaze when you look at me makes me feel that I might be a toolman…”
“!” Wu Jin was startled. He appeased him, “How could that be! How could Little Ming, the glorious on-duty student, be a toolman!”
By the time the students all arrived in the classroom one after another, Wu Jin had finally sorted through all the clues.
Wei Shi was the Wei Family’s eldest young master. He’d been sent to the R-Code Cram School to be abused when the Wei Family was undergoing an upheaval… he’d also dropped out of school for one year due to ‘family affairs’.
When he thought of this, Wu Jin felt quite emotional.
Student Wei had a past that really deserved sympathy, but there was a wall between Young Master Wei’s life and himself, and he wasn’t very clear on the other party’s thoughts and ideas.
After all, the rich Student Wei sat in a Maybach, and poor Little Witch couldn’t even afford to eat meringue.
The class bell rang, and Wei Shi stepped in just in time.
As usual, Wei Shi didn’t pay attention to class.
Wei Shi took out a customized diamond inlaid game machine worth 200,000 yuan out of his schoolbag that was worth 400,000 yuan. He told Wu Jin that he’d installed a rabbit game on the game machine.
Wu Jin: “……” You’re the one who wants to play with rabbits!
In the first class, Chinese, Wu Jin took notes carefully while Wei Shi played the rabbit game.
In the second class, mathematics, Wu Jin took notes carefully, and Wei Shi said, “Huh, this game is really fun.”
In the third class, English, Wu Jin took notes carefully, while Wei Shi said, “The little rabbit has evolved, it’s a super high level mechanical armored combat rabbit.”
Wu Jin’s ears twitched, but he finally managed to suppress his curiosity.
The temptation of the rabbit game failed.
By noon, Wei Shi had changed his strategy.
In the fifth class, physics, Wu Jin took notes carefully, while Wei Shi pulled out a refined simulation question bank.
In the sixth class, chemistry, Wu Jin took notes carefully, while Wei Shi said, “Tsk, an immortal level topic.”
In the seventh class, biology, Wu Jin took notes carefully, and Wei Shi clapped his hands and praised, “Good question, good question!”
Wu Jin finally couldn’t help it, “What questions are you doing?”
Wei Shi smiled wickedly, “You want to know? Come find me at the grove after school.”
Wu Jin refused instantly.
Wei Shi didn’t mind it. He did another question, clapped his hands, and sighed, “This question can only be found in the sky, it’s rarely seen in this world…”
On the podium, Teacher Blood Pigeon finally couldn’t help it, “Student in the fifth row, what are you doing applauding in class!”
From beside Wei Shi, the Wu Jin who really wanted to see the questions also couldn’t bear it anymore, “Alright, at the grove then!”
