Chapter 70: Don’t be coquettish.

In a certain corner of the last row of Class Zero sat a person exuding gloom, with one hand hanging on her chest, looking quite decadent.

Yao Yi stared at the report card placed on the table, as if she couldn’t believe it.

She was still stuck firmly in second place, and the name Fu Chuan not only pressed above her name, but also on her heart.

Too much!

Yao Yi pursed her lips and was quite angry: Why didn’t your grades drop?!

She could only think about this in her heart, and it was impossible to actually ask Fu Chuan, impossible in this entire life.

Seeing Yao Yi’s appearance, how could Fu Chuan not know that she was uncomfortable because she was still second place? Regardless, he liked this moment when Yao Yi’s eyes and heart were full of him.

It must be because the time of dating was too short and it hasn’t worked yet! Yao Yi defended herself in her heart, Fu Chuan’s grades would definitely drop after dating for a month or two!

Fu Chuan no longer held his upright posture. He put one arm on the table, leaned his head on it, but the hand under the table hooked onto Yao Yi’s thumb.

Seeing this, Yao Yi frowned and responded seriously: “Be serious, although this question is a bit complicated, you don’t need to be afraid of it.”

It was rare to see Fu Chuan showing such weakness, leaning on the table looking extremely innocent. Finally Yao Yi added: “Don’t be coquettish.”

“Mhm.” Fu Chuan replied, but he still didn’t sit up straight. He laid on his arm and stared at Yao Yi. Don’t be coquettish.

“You can’t be like this.” Yao Yi’s mind was now full of ‘how can someone like Fu Chuan make her rush to reclaim first place?’ The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she was. Thinking of this, she glared at Fu Chuan.

“I was a little tired from copying the notes just now.” Fu Chuan pretended that his hands were sore, and pointed out something.

Yao Yi, who had Fu Chuan copy all her notes, was silent, and it sounded like she was the one who caused it.

“Then, then let’s take a break?” Yao Yi asked uncertainly.

Fu Chuan still looked very tired, leaning on his arm and nodded wearily: “Yao Yao should also take a rest.”

Yao Yi, who spent the whole day at school without using hands or brains, was certainly not tired. She looked at Fu Chuan for a moment , and then asked what she had always wanted to ask: “Why do you call me ‘Yao Yao’?” Others always call her Yiyi.

“Don’t couples have nicknames?” Fu Chuan replied very naturally, without any falsehood on his face.

Yao Yi was a little panicked. Has Fu Chuan read any other love books besides “The Book of Love”? She didn’t see this skill about nicknames in the book.

“Yes, what you said makes a lot of sense.” Yao Yi nodded seriously, as if she already knew it.

“Then what does Yao Yao want to call me?” Fu Chuan raised his eyebrows and asked casually.

Sure enough! He was waiting, wanting to see her fall into the trap. Yao Yi shrank her hands nervously, but was led back by Fu Chuan.

“Is Fu Chuan not good?” Yao Yi’s mind short-circuited, and finally said dryly.

…

Fortunately, the class bell saved Yao Yi, and Fu Chuan regained his calm and self-possessed attitude, sitting upright in his seat, taking notes.

Up until the winter break, Yao Yi still had the cast on.

A few days before the break, Yao Yi was very anxious because Fu Chuan was going back to the capital. Wouldn’t that make them a long-distance relationship?

She heard that the long-distance relationships don’t last long, and she hasn’t dated Fu Chuan long enough to where his grades have declined. Yao Yi sat cross-legged on the bed in silence, her hand was still bandaged, her condition looked extremely miserable.

The more anxious she was, the more she wanted to get closer to Fu Chuan. It was as if she wanted to deepen their relationship.

Because Yao Yi’s hand had still not healed, Fu Chuan asked Uncle Li to pick them up. There was no sign of Father Yao and Mother Yao driving their daughter. Friends were always good, especially Xiao Fu, who looked so reassuring.

In order to deepen the relationship between the two, when Yao Yi went to school, she took the initiative to hold Fu Chuan’s hand as soon as she got downstairs. She also sent Fu Chuan a message when she got home at night.

Yao Yi also felt that this method was effective because Fu Chuan’s eyes changed when he looked at her…although Yao Yi couldn’t figure out what had changed.

There was another piece of good news before the break. Lao Han praised Qin Li and Yao Yi in class, saying that they will represent the country in the International Mathematical Olympiad next July.

This was an unprecedented joyful event in Yan City. No. 1 High School hung up a banner at the school gate early on.

“Did I hear wrong?” Li Ge looked at his deskmate, “Are you going to participate in the  IMO?”

Qin Li glanced at Li Ge lightly, but said nothing. In his heart, he was already greatly relieved. The matter of going to university would be settled at this point, and he would not have to worry too much about the college entrance examination by then.

“I didn’t expect you to be so good at math.” Li Ge was still a little stunned. Everyone often got full marks on the test paper of 150 points. He didn’t expect that Qin Li, who had an unremarkable total score in the class, was so powerful.

As for Yao Yi entering the IMO, no one was surprised. Everyone in No. 1 High School took it for granted.

“I would like to praise Yao Yi here. She has been first place since the preliminary mathematics competition, and she has been able to maintain the first place until the winter camp competition. It is amazing.” Lao Han praised with a smile, “You will work hard in the next six months and strive to win in the international arena with first place.”

In fact, if you can be selected by the national team, the gold medal was basically stable. There was a saying that it was not difficult to go to IMO, but it was difficult to enter the national team.

Yao Yi didn’t take it to heart. She was not interested in gold medals or not, the main attraction was that she could solve more difficult problems.

This time after school, Fu Chuan was not able to walk alone with Yao Yi. A large group of people gathered around her.

Qin Li rushed over to thank Yao Yi for helping him with questions. As for Han Jiaojiao, who simply wanted to have a break, she was a little bit reluctant to part with Yao Yi.

“I’m going to travel with my family during the winter break.” Han Jiaojiao rubbed against Yao’s hand, which made Fu Chuan feel particularly uncomfortable.

Especially besides the girl Han Jiaojiao, Yao Yi was surrounded by three boys.

“Yao Yi, did you see a child in the winter camp, a very young one.” Li Ge asked curiously.

Child? Yao thought of Liu Min for a moment, the pitiful look of that child with red eyes,  she had never blamed him.

“Liu Min?” Before Yao Yi could say anything, Qin Li asked first.

“That’s right!” Li Ge nodded. “It’s him. He should be very good. My dad has heard of him. When you were competing, my dad was on the phone with Liu Min’s dad.”

“Him?” Qin Li’s face was not very good-looking, “That kid made Yao Yi become like this.”

Everyone was taken aback, and Han Jiaojiao’s cold eyes fell on Li Ge after a moment.

Li Ge couldn’t help raising his hand: “It’s none of my business, I’m just an outsider, just helping you find out the news.”

“Then what’s wrong with Liu Min? Stupid from studying?” Zhao Qian frowned, and immediately hated the child he had never met.

“The kid didn’t do it on purpose, he couldn’t brake.” Yao Yi subconsciously explained for Liu Min.

Qin Li ruthlessly exposed it: “Don’t hide it, I’m always there, and that kid will trouble you whenever he’s free.”

Yao Yi had no way to refute this, so she could only forcefully add: “He just wants to beat me.”

Li Ge next to her seemed to think of something, and suddenly realized: “Oh, that child is also pitiful.”

Seeing that everyone turned their eyes to him again, Li Ge explained: “My dad and Liu Min’s dad are college classmates, and his dad is a teacher in another province. I met Liu Min once before, and his dad completely regarded him as a future ladder tool.”

After Li Ge’s incident, for the first time, he felt that his father was a good father. He would not force himself to study too much, and only asked him to not waste his time.

Fortunately, Li Ge was also doing well, and his grades had always been good. According to the current grades, there was no problem getting into key universities.

“Tool?” Han Jiaojiao felt uncomfortable.

“I was still in middle school at that time, and they came to my house as guests. The kid couldn’t even speak very fluently yet, and was forced by his father to do math in the hall.”

It couldn’t be considered as forcing, Li Ge exaggerated a bit. But in his opinion, Liu Min’s father forced it, but Liu Min himself was still willing to do the problems.

The group of people talked more and more crookedly, and finally decided to go back by bus in order to chat more.

Yao Yi looked at Fu Chuan and wanted to ask him if he wanted to go back first, but Fu Chuan said first: “I’ll let Uncle Li go back first.”

Li Ge, who was the closest, looked at the two in surprise, wondering when their relationship became so close.

Yao Yi couldn’t refuse and could only nod her head. It was not surprising since everyone was classmates anyway.

The bus at the gate of the school was the most crowded. After the six people got on the bus, the students who slipped onto the bus were now immersed in the joy of the break. The noise in the bus was no different from that of the vegetable market.

Li Ge and the others had to speak louder, Han Jiaojiao was pushed to the other side, and she almost fell when the bus braked. Zhao Qian had no choice but to squeeze over and grab her.

The idea of wanting to chat all the way back broke down.

Fu Chuan was incompatible with the whole bus. Fortunately, there were so many people now that no one could hear each other clearly or move. In addition, they were all wearing school uniforms, so he didn’t attract the attention of others.

Yao Yi’s right hand was still hanging, and Fu Chuan surrounded her whole body in order to prevent others from bumping into her.

The idea was good, but more people kept coming onto the bus. Finally, Fu Chuan placed his arms around Yao Yi’s waist, let her lean in his arms, and protected her right hand.

Yao Yi didn’t feel any discomfort at all, he had her lean against him, and she did. She could still smell Fu Chuan’s pleasant scent in her nose, so she couldn’t help rubbing against him quietly.

“Is it uncomfortable?” Fu Chuan directly held the top railing of the bus with one hand. The other arm was around Yao Yi, and he asked in a low voice with his chin resting on her head.
