Chapter 72 She listens to you more now.

The air suddenly became quiet.

The two people at the table looked at each other calmly, but the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Jianchuan smiled slightly and reminded aloud,

"I am an only child."

The implication is that since he has no sister, he cannot have a sister fetish.

Of course Cheng Shu knew that he was an only son. But this man is quite deep in the city, so he has to be on guard.

So she gave him a fake smile and said,

"Yes, I didn't say it was you."

"But -"

he changed the topic and looked at him meaningfully,

"I didn't mention your name, you can use your name." What are you doing?"

Jiang Jianchuan curled his fingertips slightly and was about to speak when he saw the door at the entrance open from the corner of his eye.

Cheng Xiaoyue pushed the door open and saw two people standing in the restaurant in an almost confrontational manner.

She was confused and surprised. She stood hesitantly by the door and called out in a low voice,

"Brother?"

She didn't know who the brother was calling this time. Jiang Michuan subconsciously wanted to respond, but suddenly a subtle discomfort arose again. He swallowed it again.

Cheng Shu didn't respond, he just stared at him briefly and then looked at Cheng Xiaoyue.

Probably because he was concerned about Cheng Xiaoyue's presence, he didn't say anything more. He raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, reminding him,

"You've grown up watching Congee."

He lowered his voice and said, "Don't cross the line."

Fewer words mean bigger things.

Jiang Jianchuan understood what he meant and curled his lips in a self-deprecating tone.

He certainly wouldn't cross the line.

If he had this ridiculous idea, he wouldn't have chosen to push her away in the first place.

Seeing that Cheng Xiaoyue was still standing by the door confused, Jiang Jianchuan bent down to pick up his dog, picked up the cake box, and said calmly,

"Let's go."

"Oh..."

Cheng Xiaoyue stepped aside with a puzzled look on his face. , make way for him to get out of the door.

However, when everyone walked out, she suddenly reacted,

"Hey! My cake!"

Jiang Jianchuan didn't even look back, "Thank you for Xiaobai!"

Cheng Xiaoyue: "???"

Thank you! How dare he just walk away with something so expensive?

Cheng Xiaoyue cursed, but didn't want to get too entangled with him, so she gave up the idea of ​​chasing him out and glared at his back feebly.

....

Although Cheng Shu was dubious about the self-inflicted crime, he still took it seriously and called Zhao Xiaoyun to ask.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xiaoyun thought it was a good idea when he heard it.

Although Cheng Xiaoyue's grades seem mediocre, her family's financial strength and relevant family environment have made her speak English well since she was a child, and she also has expertise in art.

Cheng Shu understood it and thought it was a good idea to at least give it a try. So after hanging up the phone, he mentioned the matter to Cheng Xiaoyue that night.

Cheng Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, "Huh? Learn English?"

"Yes, there is a foreign language speaking competition at the end of October. If you can win the prize, you can apply to participate in independent enrollment in the future. And if you go abroad in the future, English scores are also required, so it can be used as a practice One practice."

Cheng Xiaoyue blinked in confusion, enrolling students on her own? Going abroad?

She didn't even think about it.

So she frowned inexplicably, "Why do you want to participate in this competition? Isn't my goal to be admitted to Jiangsu University?"

Knowing that she was in the intense preparation for the exam, she felt confused, but these two paths were indeed easier for her, Cheng Shu then patiently persuaded,

"Just improve your English scores. There is nothing wrong with it."

Cheng Xiaoyue frowned, "But my English is not bad now, my weakness is science. Spending so much time learning English is a bit putting the cart before the horse, right? "

English is indeed her strong point. She relied on her good sense of language and memorized a few more words, and her scores skyrocketed. Now she has basically stabilized above 120.

On the other hand, there has been little improvement in subjects such as physics, chemistry, and biology, hovering at the passing line all year round.

Cheng Shu knew her concerns and did not insist that she participate in self-recruitment. Seeing that she was not very interested, he just patted her shoulder and sighed,

"It's better to seek death than to sit there and wait for death. I can only help you get here!"

Cheng Xiaoyue: "???"

Is this the idiom used in your family? Of?

.....

Due to Cheng Shu's limited language skills, self-recruitment was put on hold for the time being, and tutoring continued as usual.

On Saturday night, Jiang Haobin finished tutoring Cheng Xiaoyue, said goodbye to the Cheng family's parents, and left the Cheng family.

It was just after 9 o'clock, and the elevator came up quickly.

Just as he was about to walk in, someone suddenly blocked the car door. When he looked up, he saw Jiang Michuan walking in wearing casual home clothes and carrying a garbage bag.

He took two steps away to make room, and Jiang Michuan tilted his head and nodded as a greeting.

The two of them were silent all the way until they walked out of the lobby on the first floor. Jiang Haobin said goodbye and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard him say,

"Can we chat for a few words?"

In the evening of early autumn, fine dust floated under the street lamp.

Two figures stood facing each other in the dim light, with an inexplicable sense of hidden edge.

Jiang Haobin smiled and asked proactively,

"What's wrong? Senior."

He could tell that Jiang Jianchuan didn't like him very much. He didn't know the specific reason, but it must have something to do with Cheng Xiaoyue.

It's just that the other party is a senior after all, and the other party hasn't done anything substantive to target him, so he still remains polite and polite, looking at him neither condescendingly nor arrogantly.

Jiang Michuan was slightly taller than him. At this time, he lowered his eyelashes slightly, and his eyes were darkened by the street lights, which made him look a little more approachable.

He smiled and asked,

"What do you think of Congee's results this time?"

Jiang Haobin was slightly stunned.

In his impression, Jiang Mikawa was a man of few words. He remembered that the last time he spoke at the orientation ceremony as a representative of the student union, he ended with just a few words, and then walked off the stage amid thunderous applause without looking back.

Jiang Haobin pursed his lower lip and answered honestly,

"It's pretty good. If you work hard in the remaining two semesters, it will be no problem to get a first-class exam."

Last year, Jiang University's first-class score was 585. If Cheng Xiaoyue maintains the current momentum, There is absolutely a chance of passing the exam.

However, Jiang Jianchuan didn't seem to be proud of this. He just sneered slightly and asked seemingly casually,

"Can I get into Jiangsu University with a first-class diploma?"

Jiang Haobin frowned, "How can I get into Jiangsu University with a first-class diploma? " Jiang Da?”

Jiangsu University is one of the top 10 universities in the country. To pass the exam, you need to score at least 3 or 40 points more than the majors, especially if it is a popular or ace major.

Jiang Jianchuan seemed to have expected this answer. He smiled and said without comment,

"If you do it by yourself, that's fine."

Jiang Haobin was a smart man. After hearing what he said, he already understood his intention.

"You want me to persuade her to commit suicide?"

Jiang Michuan hummed lightly and looked up at the moon tonight.

Today happens to be the 16th day of the lunar calendar, when the moon is at its fullest.

For no reason, he suddenly remembered Cheng Xiaoyue when he was a child.

She was only 5 or 5 years old at that time. She had just learned to write her name in kindergarten. When she came back, she complained dissatisfiedly that her name was not good enough.

"Sounds like a weak moon!" Nai Baozi muttered unhappily at the dinner table.

Cheng Shu was almost 10 years old at the time and was at his most naughty. When he heard this, he teased her,

"What about the strong sun? The abbreviation is -"

Before she could say the last two words, Cheng Xingye hit her with chopsticks. Head, shut the mouth abruptly.

Yue, in Chinese, means the divine pearl given by God.

And she was indeed pampered by her family as the apple of their eye, and she never suffered any grievances from childhood to adulthood.

Jiang Jianchuan lowered his head and pursed his lips.

Under the quiet street light, Jiang Haobin looked at the silent man opposite and asked puzzledly,

"Why don't you tell her yourself?"

The moonlight swayed in the wind and moved to the position behind the clouds.

Jiang Jianchuan looked away, his clear eyes lost the moonlight, leaving a thin layer of coolness.

He seemed to smile, but there was no emotion in his voice. He just said,

"She listens to you more now."
