Shi Yao replied with an “Orh”, took the pen from Lin Jiage’s hands and began working on the new questions.
Lin Jiage remained silent so as to not disturb Shi Yao.
He first shot a glance at ‘Qin Shou (barbarous beast)’—whose complexion looked rather awful at this point—before turning his gaze back to Shi Yao.
The young lady was very focused on the questions. From time to time, a frown would make its way between her brows while she was deep in thought.
Perhaps it was due to their P.E. lesson in the afternoon; she had braided her long hair into a bun, revealing her slender and fair neck.
Her side profile was delicate and charming. This was especially so for her nose; it was a little raised and very adorable.
Lin Jiage couldn’t seem to get enough of her looks even after staring at her for a long time. On the contrary, the more he looked at her, the more pleasing she seemed to him.
On top of being good-looking, Soft Bun’s beauty is quite enduring too… I didn’t expect that. It’s no wonder that male student sent her a love letter. I wonder how many love letters she’s received so far…
While Lin Jiage was deeply immersed in his thoughts, a female student sitting across from him suddenly walked over with a notebook in her hand and asked, “Senior Lin, I don’t know how to do this question. Can you help me?”
Before Lin Jiage could reply, Shi Yao had already raised her head from her paper to look at the female student curiously.
Lin Jiage lifted his hand and flicked Shi Yao’s head lightly, “Do your paper.”
Shi Yao’s cheeks puffed up in displeasure, but she still obediently lowered her head and continued working on Lin Jiage’s questions.
Seeing that Lin Jiage wasn’t responding to her request, the female student who had approached him spoke up once more, “Senior Lin, this question…”
But this time, before the female student could finish her sentence, Lin Jiage had already interjected, “Am I teacher?”
A hint of redness crept up on the female student’s face after she heard his words. She quickly shook her head and replied meekly, “No.”
“That should answer your question. If there’s something you don’t understand in your schoolwork, you should ask your teacher. Why are you asking me instead?” Lin Jiage replied impassively before turning his gaze back towards Shi Yao.
How could this female student do this? To approach me in front of Soft Bun, isn’t that practically ruining my clean reputation?
But speaking of which, it was supposed to be a simple trip to the library, but instead, Soft Bun received a love letter and some female student approached me. We’re so good at attracting peach blossoms 1 —we must truly be a match made in heaven… What kind of name would suit us? Peach Blossom Couple…
Lin Jiage was still celebrating with delight over the name he’d just come up with when he suddenly noticed the blue letter on the table once more.
That thing is looking more and more annoying to my eyes…
After staring at the letter for a while, Lin Jiage suddenly seemed to think of something, and he said, “I’m starting to get thirsty after explaining all those questions to you…”
Hearing his words, Shi Yao turned her head to look at him.
But before she could speak, Lin Jiage continued, “… I don’t need you to treat me, but if you insist, I guess it can’t be helped. I’ll foot the bill then.”
While speaking one-sidedly, Lin Jiage picked up his phone, tapped into a food delivery application, and showed it to Shi Yao, “What do you want to drink?”
Who wants to treat you to a drink? Do you have to be so self-assuming?
Shi Yao complained in her heart. However, when she saw the colorful array of milk teas on Lin Jiage’s phone screen, she hesitated for a moment before pointing to the matcha milk tea.
Lin Jiage blinked his eyes to show that he acknowledged her order, then proceeded to order the drinks and have them delivered to the library.
However, after ordering the milk tea, he went on to send a message to Lu Benlai: [Help me print this message out and send it to the library.]
Lu Benlai replied instantly: [Sorry, but the person you are looking for is currently on Mars.]
Lin Jiage replied calmly with two words: [Golden Resplendence.]
Lu Benlai immediately responded: [Roger that, Boss. Just wait a moment, I’ll make sure the item you want gets delivered at the speed of light!]
