Chapter 161 Mission 015
Mother Li first said to Li Yuechen: "I have been busy with business recently, and I have indeed neglected you. It is my fault. I will come back every day at noon to bring you food..."
Li Yuechen said helplessly: "Mom! I am not talking about this! You are so busy every day and you have to come back at noon to bring me food. Isn't that a hassle for you? I hope you will not be busy with business and always forget me. I went to the restaurant to find you before, but you drove me back before I could say a few words. I would rather help you serve dishes there and stay with you for a while..."
Li Yuechen's words made Li's father and mother feel uncomfortable.
Xiao Ying looked at the slightly red eyes of the three members of the Li family, feeling a little helpless. He mentioned this and made them emotional. He was an outsider sitting here, and he was the one who started the conversation. It was inevitable that he felt a little embarrassed, so he could only silently reduce his sense of presence.
After a while, the three members of the Li family calmed down. Mother Li said to Xiao Ying a little embarrassedly: "Look at us, why are you talking about this while we are having a meal..."
After that, Mother Li chatted with Xiao Ying again, and did not mention his parents' family at all, but asked about his study.
When Mother Li asked him if he had any tricks to achieve such good academic results, Xiao Ying replied: "Learning is mainly about finding a study method that suits you. My personal study method is not suitable for others."
Mother Li actually didn't believe it in her heart. She just thought Xiao Ying was unwilling to say it.
At this time, Li Yuechen said, "Mom, don't disbelieve me. Xiao Ying is a genius! The learning method of the god of learning is something that mortals like us can't learn." She looked at Xiao Ying with a smile, "Last time, the English teacher asked us to recite a long text. Everyone was memorizing it sentence by sentence, but Xiao Ying finished it in less than ten minutes."
Mother Li looked at Xiao Ying in surprise and said, "So amazing?"
Xiao Ying smiled embarrassedly. Can he boast that he has a photographic memory and can memorize it without even looking at it for a minute? It takes ten minutes just to cover up.
Li Yuechen continued, "I was curious about how he memorized it, or if he had memorized it in advance. The truth turned out to be that he was born with an outstanding memory. He can memorize an article almost exactly after reading it a few times! So he is called a god of learning. His IQ level is not on the same level as mortals like us!"
In fact, Li Yuechen really envied and hated Xiao Ying! They are born with high IQ and good talent. No matter how hard I study, I can't catch up with the effect of reading books!
A top student = not mediocre talent + very hard work + suitable and efficient learning methods, while a god of learning must have extremely high IQ and talent to be created, and envy is not enough.
Xiao Ying lowered his eyes slightly and said softly: "Student Li is too flattering. In fact, I am not that good. I just have been better than others since I was a child."
During the time when he came to Li's house for lunch today, Xiao Ying brushed the favorability of Li's father and mother without leaving a trace, and then said goodbye and left.
After Xiao Ying left, Li's parents praised Xiao Ying repeatedly: "This child has self-control. If someone else has this family background and encounters such a situation where his parents don't care, he will definitely become a playboy. How can he love studying so much?"
"Yes, yes, Xiao Ying just said that his usual hobby is to read all kinds of books. It's rare to see a boy who doesn't play games!"
…………
Li Yuechen listened to her parents praising Xiao Ying non-stop, and sweated silently. Although she also admitted that Xiao Ying was the legendary child of other people's families, there was no need to praise him so hard in front of her, right? She would be jealous, okay!
After this visit to the parents, the relationship between Xiao Ying and Li Yuechen became much closer. At least, it was not like before when Li Yuechen was embarrassed to talk to Xiao Ying in front of classmates.
Xiao Ying felt that the things that happened after the monthly exam were really a turning point for his mission. The favorability of the male and female protagonists, who had not made much progress before, began to increase rapidly. Specifically, the male protagonist began to study seriously and was no longer so confrontational with him. The female protagonist also liked to ask him questions when she had any questions.
What made Xiao Ying a little distressed was his current seat. He had little interaction with the female protagonist before, and it was more beneficial than harmful for him to sit at the same table with the male protagonist. Now that his relationship with the female protagonist has progressed, as a male supporting role who wants to capture the female protagonist, of course he does not want to have a male protagonist who may collide with the female protagonist at any time.
So when the class teacher ranked the seats for the first monthly exam, he ignored the male protagonist Song Lin's reluctant look, and sat in the third row of golden seats in the middle facing the podium under the care of the class teacher. His deskmate was Li Yuechen, who ranked second in this monthly exam.
Li Yuechen turned her head to look at her new deskmate, pursed her lips and smiled: "I didn't expect the teacher to arrange us to be deskmates."
Xiao Ying didn't say anything, but Jiang Yue, who was only across the aisle from Li Yuechen, complained to her: "Yuchen, we are separated." Li Yuechen's former deskmate was Jiang Yue. Jiang Yue's grades in the class were only average, and her grades improved a lot thanks to Li Yuechen's help in explaining the questions. She originally planned to continue to be a deskmate with Li Yuechen, but she didn't expect that Xiao Ying would take her place.
Xiao Ying glanced at Jiang Yue and didn't pay much attention. In the original work, Jiang Yue was just a girl who had a crush on the male protagonist Song Lin but didn't dare to confess. Later, her good friend Li Yuechen and her crush Song Lin got together, and she still sent her sincere blessings. In the end, her ending was also very good. She let go of the once illusory crush and found her own happiness.
Jiang Yue's identity is just one of the heroine's good friends. Even if she has a crush on the hero, it is an unknown secret. She has not turned into a vicious female supporting role. She does not have many scenes. Even in college, she and the heroine were not admitted to the same university. . So Xiao Yu didn't pay much attention to Jiang Yue.
Life in school is really dull. Every day is just studying, doing questions, and taking exams. Xiao Yu just wants to get the moon first, and he also has to see if the moon comes out when it comes. In the second year of junior high school, as a fourteen-year-old girl, Xiao Yu felt that he really couldn't do anything, so he could only silently brush up his favorability and start as a friend.
In fact, there are only two possibilities for a man and a woman to be friends. One is that there is no spark between them and they are just friends, and the other is that they become lovers over time.
Of course Xiao Yu hoped it would be the latter, so he paid special attention to his methods when brushing up on the heroine's favorability. Especially since the heroine is reborn, her standards for boys she likes are definitely different from those of ordinary fourteen-year-old girls. He needs to pay more attention to this.

Ordinary life seems to pass quickly again, and soon it’s time for the midterm exam
After the exam, there was a three-day vacation. Xiao Yu carried a somewhat heavy schoolbag and walked towards the apartment. When passing by a remote street, he was blocked by a dozen big men.
Xiao Yu stopped. He looked at the tall man with a thick beard standing at the front and said lightly: "Beard?"
The bearded man didn't say anything, but Ma Zai behind him scolded him very displeasedly: "You can call me Brother Beard's nickname?"
Yes, this burly man with a big beard whose true face is almost invisible is the bearded brother who Xiao Yu had previously found to be involved with Song Lin. No one remembers his real name, but because his surname is Hu, he added another one. He has a big beard on his face, so he is nicknamed Big Beard, and he is called Bearded Brother.
Xiao Yu smiled softly: "I didn't expect you could bear to come to me until now..."
Previously, Xiao Yu saved the male protagonist Song Lin when he sent the heroine Li Yuechen home at night after the first monthly exam. He checked the men who surrounded Song Lin afterwards and found that they were indeed sent by the bearded man.
When Song Lin was just an ordinary gangster, he often went to nightclubs and bars and the like. He accidentally bumped into a scene where Big Beard was trading drugs with others. However, Song Lin, who didn't have much experience, actually didn't know that Big Beard was selling drugs. The person he was dealing with was drugs, but he still ran away instinctively like a beast. He made a lot of noise when escaping, and was discovered by the bearded man, but Song Lin was very careful. The bearded man was just suspicious of him at the moment, and there was no clear evidence to prove it, so he did not deal with him from the beginning, but wanted to drag him into the water. .
Big Beard felt that regardless of whether Song Lin was the one who broke into their trading scene before, his intelligence and wit were worthy of his win.
However, although Song Lin didn't know that Big Beard was dealing drugs, he also knew that he had done many illegal and criminal activities and was unwilling to join Big Beard's forces. So if the kind invitation didn't work, the bearded man sent someone to harden him.
In the original work, Song Lin was also threatened by Big Beard in this way, but without Xiao Yu's help, he chose to compromise, and was later dragged into drug trafficking charges by Big Beard and imprisoned unjustly.
Xiao Yu's intervention not only cut off the first heroic encounter between the male and female protagonists to save the beauty, but also ended the relationship between the male protagonist and the bearded man from the beginning.
After investigating and learning about the entanglement between Big Beard and Song Lin, Xiao Yu thought that he would soon meet this Bearded Brother, who was said to be the top tycoon in City A, but he didn't expect that almost two months had passed before he met him.
The bearded man looked at Xiao Yu's calm expression and felt something bad in his heart. He took a long puff of cigarette, puffed out a circle under his eyes, and tried hard to suppress the strange feeling that suddenly appeared in his heart, coldly He stared at Xiao Yu, as if a poisonous snake was staring at its prey with a snake breath: "Boy, if you dare to ruin your Master Hu's affairs, do you think you can do whatever you want just because your family has some money?"
Xiao Yu immediately understood. Was it because he had investigated that his family was wealthy and wanted to rip him off?
