"Go back."

He stared at the tombstone for a long time before slowly turning around.

Before Shen Qing left, she took one more look at the boy with a cheerful smile and followed him silently.

The atmosphere was quiet along the way. Even the taxi driver glanced at the two of them, guessing whether they had quarreled.

So much so that when Xie Mingchao got out of the car, the master even said a serious word of advice: "Young man, there is nothing you can't handle, just be patient."

Xie Mingchao raised his eyes and looked at the man who had walked a few steps away from the car and turned back to look at him, and his eyebrows became warmer.

"I understand, thank you, master."

The master drove away with satisfaction, thinking that he had helped a young couple resolve their conflict.

Chen Ziwan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, quietly looking at the two people walking side by side downstairs.

"Chaochao seems to have really enlightened himself."

As soon as Shen Qing and Xie Mingchao separated on the fourth floor, they met Li Xin who was about to go downstairs to buy groceries.

Li Xin stood at the door of the elevator with her arms folded, glancing back and forth between the two of them coldly, "Explain."

Shen Qing smiled awkwardly and said, "Do you believe me when I say it was a coincidence?"

Li Xin sniffed the air carefully, "They all smell of the same aromatherapy. It smells like lavender-scented car aromatherapy."

Shen Qing took a step back and fanned the air pretentiously, "Why didn't I smell it?"

Xie Mingchao released the elevator's opening button and raised his eyes calmly: "Auntie, wait for the elevator to come down later."

Seeing the elevator door close, Shen Qing felt the murderous aura surging around her.

Why does this bitch always leave the mess on her hands!

"Why are you with him again?"

Shen Qing tried to divert her attention and held Li Xin's hand in a flattering manner, "Aunt Xin's nose is really good, can she smell this?"

"As a chef, I must have a keen sense of smell," Li Xin pretended to break free but did not let go, "Don't change the subject, I think you need to write another pledge to stay away from Xie Mingchao."

"Aunt Xin, you can't deprive me of my right to make friends."

"It's not about deprivation, it's about properly allowing you to identify people with evil intentions."

Shen Qing: It’s more like she’s plotting something evil.

"Xie Mingchao has helped me a lot in my studies. If I break up with him, my grades will plummet!"

"You don't like to learn," Li Xin didn't believe her lies, "unless you prove it to me."

Shen Qing gritted his teeth and said, "It just so happens that the monthly exam has just ended. If I make better progress next time than this time, give up this idea."

Li Xin raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, for the sake of fairness, let's sign a contract."

Shen Qing watched her take out her personal seal and stamp it solemnly on the signee, then realized that she was serious.

"Aunt Xin, your stamping skills are very high, right?"

"Well, if you can get a contract with my personal seal, it will be more useful than an ordinary contract." Li Xin pushed the contract in front of her, "You don't have a seal, just sign it."

Shen Qing bravely picked up the pen and heard Li Xin say with a smile: "Sign in block letters."

She wrote her name politely, and then watched Li Xin take it away.

"Then we will see the results in the next monthly exam."

The improvement score stipulated in the contract is at least fifty points, which is simply an impossible level for Shen Qing.

After all, she must be correct in all the multiple-choice questions, but she can hardly answer the other questions.

Xie Mingchao recently discovered that Shen Qing was unusually diligent and started to pick up a brand new textbook.

"Why are you working harder?"

Li Xin did not stipulate that he could not tell Xie Mingchao about the bet, so Shen Qing told the whole story with a grimace.

He raised his eyes and said, "Oh, it seems you value our friendship very much."

Shen Qing stared at him suspiciously: "You have nothing else to say?"

Xie Mingchao said without hesitation: "Then come on."

She asked hesitantly: "Do you think I can improve by fifty points within a month based on my foundation?"

He said truthfully: "You have a lot of room for improvement, and I think you have a chance."

What an emotionally intelligent answer.

Shen Qing took a long breath, "So for the sake of our deep friendship and my good deskmate, help me?"

She also deliberately emphasized the word friendship.

"Okay, if you don't know how, just ask me."

"What if I don't know anything?"

Xie Mingchao glanced sideways at her, "Then let's learn from the answer process. Many questions have fixed types. The numbers and conditions are different, but the problem-solving ideas are roughly the same."

He saw the light of hope in her eyes, and the corners of her lips lifted slightly, "I will help you find simple questions. As long as you can remember them, fifty points is not a problem."

If there weren't so many people in the classroom, Shen Qing would even want to pay Xie Mingchao a pious bow.

Xie Mingchao was surprisingly patient. No matter how many times she asked the same question, he still answered without any impatience.

No matter how poor her understanding was, she still remembered it after listening to it several times.

"Okay, you finally mastered a question type after three days." Xie Mingchao saw that her problem-solving process was finally correct, and he opened the next question calmly, "The simplest one is over, and the next one is over." It will be a little harder.”

Shen Qing read the math questions for three days in a row, and almost couldn't recognize the numbers anymore. She covered her face with exhaustion. "Can you change the subject? For example, master a 15-point question in mathematics, and do more correct cloze questions in English... …”

"Other subjects require a foundation. You can't memorize all the words. Mathematics is the subject that can improve your scores the fastest. However, the score improvement in mathematics is limited. The rest should start with Chinese and comprehensive science."

Thinking of her ability to answer Chinese reading comprehension confidently, Xie Mingchao crossed out the question plan on the paper again.

"Forget about Chinese, let's start with Comprehensive Science."

He turned the chemistry book to the last page and said, "Memorize the first four cycles. You don't need to memorize the subgroups starting with B. Remember the serial numbers and chemical symbols."

Shen Qing looked at the deep and light green and closed her eyes in despair, "Why are the colors different on the same watch?"

"You don't understand even if I explain it. Just memorize it. According to the requirements of the college entrance examination, you have to memorize it in seven cycles. The first three are regular exams."

"Oh, I got it."

She dug into the drawer and took out a chemistry book that was crumpled by snacks. She opened the last page and found that there was no periodic table.

Xie Mingchao's eyebrows skipped a beat, "Did you tear up the book?"

"Maybe..." Shen Qing vaguely remembered that one day she didn't bring her sketchbook, so she casually opened a book, tore out a page and drew on the back.

After a moment, he said: "Awesome."

Xie Mingchao threw his book to her and took hers, "Look at mine for now."

Shen Qing felt guilty and uneasy, "I don't have anything in the book, will it affect your review?"

"Knowledge is all in the brain, and textbooks are just a medium to help recall."

Oh, is this the spiritual world of a top student?

She flipped through a few pages at random, and the key points in the book were highlighted with red pen.

Shen Qing took a ruler and drew it, and it was almost on a line.

He can actually draw straight lines with his bare hands.
