Chapter 16: Ziyi, Don’t Be So Obviously Biased!
“Uh, I… I’m done writing!” Ye Chuxiao said awkwardly, “I, I, I… saw you were working and didn’t want to disturb you!”
“It’s alright,” Lu Ziyi said gently, “I can take a break. Let me see the problems you’ve written.”
“Okay!” Ye Chuxiao quickly handed the notebook to Lu Ziyi.
“Not bad, you got them all right!”
Receiving Teacher Lu’s praise, Ye Chuxiao couldn’t help but smile happily.
Her smile made Lu Ziyi inexplicably happy too: “Mm, you’re guaranteed to get at least four or five points now!”
“Then there are still fifty-six points to work towards!” Ye Chuxiao gained confidence. Having a patient and reliable School Hunk by her side was like having a calming pill.
Lu Ziyi then taught Ye Chuxiao the problem-solving method for the second type of question. After Ye Chuxiao learned it, Lu Ziyi gave her more problems to practice.
The process continued in this manner.
Lu Ziyi’s teaching was purposeful and targeted. He had a strong ability to summarize and knew how to teach Ye Chuxiao to master enough test-taking methods in a short time.
Unlike others, who taught Ye Chuxiao by going through test papers and sets of exercises one by one. At the time, Ye Chuxiao seemed to understand, but afterward, she was still confused.
Lu Ziyi’s teaching method was very effective for Ye Chuxiao. Ye Chuxiao was happy to hear Teacher Lu say she had secured so many points.
Unsure how much time had passed, a noise suddenly came from the direction of the door, and then someone pushed it open and entered.
Teacher Lu and student Xiaoxiao turned their heads to look and were surprised by the astonished expressions of the two people who entered.
Zhao Congrui and Lin Houchun, one tall and one short, one thin and one stout, became flustered.
It was the more quick-witted Zhao Congrui who reacted first. He chuckled and said, “Ziyi, junior student Xiaoxiao, what… are you two doing? Did Hou Chun and I disturb you?”
Seeing the two senior students smiling strangely, Ye Chuxiao then noticed that to make it easier to do and explain the problems, she and Lu Ziyi had unconsciously sat very close, almost shoulder to shoulder, head to head.
Their posture looked very intimate! Ye Chuxiao quickly straightened her back and moved a little distance away from Lu Ziyi.
Lu Ziyi said calmly, “Xiaoxiao will be an Assistant in the Design Studio from now on. She’ll help us out when she has free time.”
“Alright, alright! Thank you for your hard work, junior student Xiaoxiao!” Zhao Congrui and Lin Houchun said with smiles.
Zhao Congrui, in particular, held up the ingredients he had just bought, looking forward to Ye Chuxiao taking them.
Just as Ye Chuxiao was about to stand up, Lu Ziyi immediately said, “Congrui, Houchun, please go to the kitchen and make dinner. Xiaoxiao, let’s go over this type of problem again. Congrui and Houchun are good cooks, you can try their food later.”
Lu Ziyi’s words left Zhao Congrui and Lin Houchun with no room to argue, and they obediently went to the kitchen to cook.
In the kitchen, Zhao Congrui’s smile faded, and he complained, “Hmph, Ziyi hired an Assistant, and he still wants us to cook.”
Lin Houchun chuckled, “Ziyi hired junior student Xiaoxiao to dote on her. I’ve said it before, Ziyi is falling in love!”
Zhao Congrui stared at Lin Houchun, who still chuckled, “What if I say it again? I’m just being honest!”
Soon, Zhao Congrui and Lin Houchun skillfully brought five dishes and one soup to the dining table in the restaurant.
Ye Chuxiao came over to help set out the bowls and chopsticks and serve the soup.
Everyone sat down.
Lu Ziyi said, “Xiaoxiao, Congrui and Houchun are a bit clumsy. This is simple food they made, please don’t dislike it.”
Zhao Congrui immediately exclaimed, “Ziyi, you didn’t say that before we started cooking!”
