Ah Wu was standing at the school gate waiting for the bus.
Today the driver’s car broke down on the way, and because of the delay in vehicle maintenance, the car will arrive half an hour later than usual.
Tang Ruru was picked up by her parents early on. Ah Wu politely declined Tang’s father’s offer to take a detour to send her home and stood patiently under the shade of a tree waiting for the driver to arrive.
Although it was already evening, Jiangcheng was still hot in June. It was difficult to cool down even if you stood under the shade of a tree.
Ah Wu wondered whether she should find a cold drink shop and have some cold drinks to cool off and quench her thirst before the driver arrived.
“I saw Sheng Chenglin coming out of your house that day.”
Just as Ah Wu was looking around for the cold drink shop near the school, Su Huaibai’s voice came from behind her.
The next second, a cup of chilled herbal tea appeared in Ah Wu’s hand. She looked down and saw that it was her favorite red bean flavor.
“Stupid, you don’t even know how to find a cool place to stay on such a hot day.”
Su Huaibai gave her a look of contempt, not knowing what he saw in this little love-brained.
“Did you go to my house?”
The herbal jelly tea was refreshing and cooling. After taking a sip, her mouth was full of the sweetness of red beans. With just one sip, Ah Wu felt alive again.
“Was it last Saturday? What do you want to talk to me about?”
Ah Wu’s expression was a little strange. Tang Ruru’s words in the toilet during the day suddenly echoed in her ears. She felt that she seemed to understand the reason why Su Huaibai had been acting cold these days.
It turned out that he saw Sheng Chenglin coming out of her house that day, so Su Huaibai was angry about this matter.
Does it mean that he likes her? Being angry is just proof of jealousy.
“I didn’t go looking for you on purpose. I just happened to pass by your house and remembered that I borrowed two band-aids from you, so I bought new ones and wanted to return them to you. Let me tell you, I really didn’t ride my bike for half an hour to go to your house on purpose to look for you, so please don’t think too much about it.”
Su Huaibai admitted that he seemed to have some feelings for Xiang Wu, but he just didn’t want to admit it.
He always felt that it was a very embarrassing thing for him to go to several pharmacies and find the same cartoon Band-Aid just because he liked a girl. It didn’t seem like a man of steel should behave.
Ah Wu understood.
So, Su Huaibai rode his bike for half an hour that day, bought band-aids, and came to her house to find her. He just left with the band-aids because he saw her say goodbye to Sheng Chenglin.
She didn’t realize how thoroughly she understood Su Huaibai’s awkward personality.
“Sheng Chenglin is the math tutor my father found for me. The reason he showed up at my house that day was to help me with my homework.” Ah Wu explained simply.
“It’s just tutoring!” Su Huaibai’s eyes were a little erratic.
He seemed to have made a big mistake. The cold war of the past two days was completely unnecessary.
“Well, you don’t have to explain to me.”
As if he felt that his high-pitched voice just now was too urgent, Su Huaibai added another sentence unnecessarily.
“However, why would Uncle choose a student of the same grade as your tutor? I’m not saying that Uncle’s choice is wrong, but he is fully capable of hiring a teacher who specializes in math for you, right?”
Su Huaibai was a little depressed. What a great fate it was that Sheng Chenglin was chosen by Xiang Wu’s father to be her tutor.
“In fact, what teachers teach may not be the best. You know, my foundation is weak. Asking a high school teacher to teach me may not be as good as Sheng Chenglin.”
At this time, Ah Wu had already taken several classes. The two of them cooperated very well. She naturally did not think that Sheng Chenglin was worse than any excellent math teacher.
“Really?”
Su Huaibai felt as if his heart was bitten by ants. It was sour and painful and he felt very uncomfortable.
“Can you add me to your tutoring class later?”
Su Huaibai was the most impatient to study. He regretted what he said as soon as he finished speaking.
However, when he thought that if he was not there, Sheng Chenglin and Xiang Wu might fall in love with each other or that Ah Wu might rekindle their old love, he no longer felt regretful.
It was just studying. Ah Wu was able to start over, so there was no reason why he couldn’t do it.
“I suddenly realized the importance of studying. I will pay another portion of Sheng Chenglin’s tutoring fee. We can go to class together, and the learning atmosphere will be stronger. I am not very patient, so I will ask my deskmate to encourage me and help me make progress together.”
He did this not just for Ah Wu.
Su Huaibai’s parents had a standard business marriage. They had no feelings for each other. After giving birth to Su Huaibai, a combination of interests, they simply divorced and went their separate ways.
Su Huaibai’s mother married a foreigner despite her parents’ obstruction and settled abroad for many years. She seemed to be madly in love with the foreign man and treated his children as her own, but she herself was indifferent to her own son.
