Chapter 536 How can I repay you?

Chapter 536 How can I repay you?

May 8, morning.

Zhao Rongjun set out from his grandfather's house and took two large bags of fruit from his grandmother.

After saying goodbye to his grandparents, Zhao Rongjun walked towards Bihai Lanting. After waiting briefly at a crossroads, he met Qiao Xinyan who came from the other side.

"What kind of fruit are you buying today?" Qiao Xinyan glanced at the bag in Zhao Rongjun's hand, then picked up her own bag. "My mother bought oranges and grapes."

"Grandma bought some pears and pomegranates," said Zhao Rongjun.

The two people walked side by side very naturally. Zhao Rongjun stretched out his hand habitually and took the fruit in Qiao Xinyan's hand into his own hand.

They rushed all the way to the breakfast shop outside the Bihai Lanting community. The two walked into the shop. Zhao Rongjun went to find a seat while Qiao Xinyan ran to buy breakfast.

There was no need to say what he wanted to eat. After Zhao Rongjun found a seat and put down the fruit and schoolbag, a short while later, Qiao Xinyan came to his seat with a receipt.

When the waiter called out their receipt numbers, Zhao Rongjun stood up to take the plates, and Qiao Xinyan followed him and took the tableware for both of them.

"I heard from Xixi that Li Luo's Little Joy has been filming for a long time, and he will come to our school to shoot when school starts." Qiao Xinyan was eating breakfast while finding topics to chat with Zhao Rongjun.

Zhao Rongjun nodded, poured a dish of vinegar for Qiao Xinyan, and then said, "Li Luo said that if you are free at that time, everyone can go to the crew to act as a temporary extra."

"Do you want to go out and play?" Qiao Xinyan asked with a smile.

Zhao Rongjun shook his head repeatedly: "I'm sure I can't do it, you can go and try."

"I'm not too interested either." Qiao Xinyan also shook her head, then laughed again, "Huanhuan would probably be quite interested."

The two of them were chatting and eating breakfast, and when they were almost done, they reached out for the tissue on the table.

As luck would have it, the two people stretched out their hands at the same time and bumped into each other just above the tissue box.

The next second, the two of them let go of each other's hands as if they had been electrocuted.

Zhao Rongjun showed an embarrassed expression on his face and raised his hand to scratch his face.

Qiao Xinyan's cheeks turned slightly red, but she quickly recovered and pretended nothing had happened. She took out a few tissues and handed two to Zhao Rongjun.

The two of them acted as if nothing had happened, wiped their mouths, put on their schoolbags, picked up the fruits, and continued walking towards the Bihai Lanting community.

At this time, Xu Yinghuan arrived at the gate of the community in her family's car. Seeing the two of them, she happily got out of the car in advance, trotted behind them, slapped them on the shoulders twice, and squeezed directly between them.

"Hey, good morning!" Xu Ying happily put her arm around Qiao Xinyan and Zhao Rongjun's shoulders and glanced at the bag in Zhao Rongjun's hand. "What kind of fruit do you have today?"

Zhao Rongjun explained the truth, and Xu Yinghuan's eyes lit up and she began to look forward to it.

The three of them walked into the community side by side and soon arrived at the door of 1502. They knocked on the door and waited for Ying Chanxi to open the door.

The six-person study group gathered on time.

Li Luo took the fruits they brought from Zhao Rongjun without any hesitation, took them to the kitchen, washed and cut some of them, and put the rest in the refrigerator to eat in the afternoon.

For Li Luo, whether he studies now or not will not make much difference to the final college entrance examination results.

Anyway, with his level and the effect of the memory palace, there is a basic lower limit guaranteed whether he reviews or not.

Now I am reviewing Chinese, math and English seriously. It is more like a little interest between me and Ying Chanxi than a reflection of my emphasis on study.

Now the two of them are already ranked first and second in their grade at the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School.

It depends on when Li Luo can overtake Ying Chanxi.

At their level, studying is no longer a particularly boring thing.

Especially for Li Luo, there were more things to memorize and recite in Chinese and English, so he didn't need to work too hard.

Therefore, Li Luo focused all his review energy on conquering mathematics, this somewhat arrogant little peacock.

More than half of the difference in scores between me and Ying Chanxi in every exam came from mathematics.

This thing can't be fully understood by just memorizing the formulas in a memory palace.

Especially for the last question of several question types, in many cases, the solution idea is more important than the formula.

According to Ying Chanxi, sometimes she cannot even remember some variant formulas of basic formulas.

When solving a problem, if necessary, just deduce the formula on the spot and choose it as needed without memorizing it.

After all, as a big shot who had participated in national mathematics competitions, Li Luo was still a little lacking in this aspect.

Whether he can narrow the gap with Ying Chanxi depends entirely on the difficulty of the math test.

If the test paper was simpler, he could have narrowed the gap.

If the difficulty of some of the questions is not appropriate, it will be difficult to surpass Ying Chanxi. The best you can hope to do is to perform exceptionally well in the Chinese composition.

When he is reviewing now, he focuses on math problems and asks Ying Chanxi if he has any questions.

As the saying goes, the disciple surpasses the master. There will always be a chance to surpass Ying Chanxi in the future.

……

The morning study time passed quickly.

Lin Xiuhong and Cui Suling made lunch for the children and discussed where to go to play mahjong in the afternoon.

After dinner, it was Li Luo's turn to wash the dishes. He tricked Zhao Rongjun into going into the kitchen with him. After glancing at his good brother, Li Luo smiled softly and said, "Why do I feel like Qiao Xinyan's eyes are looking at you more and more strangely recently?"

"What, what do you mean?" When Zhao Rongjun heard Li Luo say this, his mind suddenly associated with the moment when he and Qiao Xinyan's soft little hands touched each other during breakfast in the morning, and his mouth became a little unresponsive.

"Why are you so nervous?" Li Luo looked at him suspiciously, "Is there really something going on?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Zhao Rongjun denied it flatly and shook his head repeatedly, "The final selection exam is about to begin, don't mess with my mind."

"Ha." Li Luo laughed, "You told me not to disturb your mind, which means you do have some thoughts of your own, right?"

"Hurry up and wash the dishes." Zhao Rongjun buried his head in rubbing the dishes and chopsticks, and changed the subject abruptly, "We still have to continue studying in the afternoon."

Li Luo clicked his tongue twice and stopped asking questions. After washing the dishes, he cut some fruit and brought it to the desk outside.

When he was studying until about 27pm, his phone vibrated twice. He picked it up and found that it was a message from Song Yu. [Song Yu]: Senior, I just arrived at the milk tea shop and ordered cups of milk tea. I will deliver them to Xiaoya and the others later!

[Song Yu]: Thank you for your discount coupon. It saved me a lot of money.

【Li Luo】: You’re welcome.

Looking at the chat history on WeChat, Li Luo sighed, thinking that this bootlicker brother finally went to buy milk tea.

However, no matter what the result is, the money earned from the milk tea will be kept within the family.

Thinking of this, Li Luo stood up from his seat, said hello to everyone else, walked to the door to change his shoes, and said he wanted to go take a look at Qianjiang University.

After Li Luo rushed all the way from Bihai Lanting to the west gate of Qianjiang University, he arrived at the door of Lin Xiufeng's milk tea shop.

As a result, just as he was about to walk in, he ran into Song Yu coming out.

"Huh? Why are you here, senior?" Song Yu was surprised at first, then asked in confusion.

"Come and see you." Li Luo said as he came up to him, opened the lid of the foam box that Lin Xiufeng gave him, took out a cup of milk tea from it, and said with a smile.

"By the way, get a cup for Youyu from my family. She's at the political work group this afternoon and isn't in the playground. I'll get it for her first and bring it to her later."

Song Yu watched Li Luo take a cup of milk tea and then considerately closed the lid of the foam box for him. He couldn't help but sighed: "I still have a lot to learn from you, senior."

"Well...you go first, I won't waste your time." Li Luo noticed the puzzled look of Lin Xiufeng in the store, so he quickly sent Song Yu away.

After watching Song Yu walk into the West Gate carrying a foam box, Li Luo walked into the milk tea shop and greeted Lin Xiufeng and Jian Chun who were busy at the front desk.

"Do you know that person just now?" Lin Xiufeng asked curiously.

"Well, I brought this business to you." Li Luo laughed, "It was a small fish raised in a fish pond by Sister Yu's college roommate."

"What does this mean?" Jian Chun beside him asked puzzledly, a little unresponsive.

"To put it simply, it's a spare tire." Li Luo said concisely.

Jian Chun: "..."

"So you tricked people into buying milk tea as gifts?" Lin Xiufeng was speechless. "Isn't that a bit unethical?"

"I didn't trick him." Li Luo denied it immediately, "It's just that he knew I sent him milk tea yesterday, so he wanted to do it this time to show off in front of his sweetheart."

"Then why did you give him the discount coupon?" Lin Xiufeng said with a sigh, "I could have made a few dozen more dollars."

"Uncle, you don't understand this." Li Luo raised his finger and shook it a few times, "I was just about to tell you this."

"How to say?"

"Isn't this the first semester for freshmen? They've all been doing military training lately." Li Luo said, "You can ask someone to go to the playground and hand out flyers, and give away group purchase discount coupons for free. It might work wonders."

"Really?" Lin Xiufeng was a little skeptical.

"The whole point of milk tea shops is marketing," said Li Luo. "If you don't take the initiative and grab the minds of college freshmen first, how can you beat the milk tea shops on Ningshan Avenue? They are right on the way between the dormitory campus and the South Gate."

Lin Xiufeng was becoming more and more convinced of his nephew, so when he heard what he said, he immediately nodded in agreement.

Jian Chun on the side said directly: "Give the flyers to me. There is a printing shop downstairs from my dormitory."

"Then you guys do your best. I'm leaving first." After saying this, Li Luo waved his hand and left.

Originally, if Jian Chun was not there, Li Luo wanted to torture his own uncle just like he had tortured Zhao Rongjun just now.

However, the real owner was right next to him, so Li Luo put his little thoughts aside. He took the milk tea he had just taken from Song Yu, walked into the west gate, and headed towards an administrative building next to the west playground.

Wandering all the way up to the second floor, Li Luo found Xu Youyu's office, knocked on the door, and pushed it open.

The students inside looked up and saw Li Luo walking in with a familiar look. He was not wearing a military training uniform, so they thought he was a senior and did not pay much attention to him.

Li Luo did not show any fear at all. He walked straight to Xu Youyu's table and handed him the milk tea.

"Huh?" Xu Youyu turned his head in surprise. The moment he saw Li Luo, his eyes suddenly lit up. "Why are you here?"

"I brought you a cup of milk tea." Li Luo raised his chin but didn't say that it was bought by Song Yu.

Xu Youyu took it with a happy look on his face, put in a straw and drank from it in small sips, not forgetting to raise it up to let Li Luo take two sips.

After drinking half of the drink, Xu Youyu turned his head to look around, and seeing other students also looking at him secretly, he quickly stood up and pulled Li Luo out.

"Can you leave the office at will?" Li Luo asked puzzledly as he followed her out the door.

"The political work group is quite easy. I'm just responsible for writing the copy. Today's work has been done." Xu Youyu said with a smile. He pulled him to the corridor at the end of the hallway, and after confirming that there was no one around, he finally couldn't wait to throw himself into his arms.

"Are you tired today?" Li Luo put his arm around her slender waist and leaned against the wall.

"I was so tired this morning!" Xu Youyu complained in his arms, "Fortunately it was only half a day. If it was a whole day like yesterday, I would be exhausted."

"That's good. Half a day of military training every day is a lot of exercise for you." Li Luo laughed, "If you can stick to it, after the military training is over, you can keep the habit of exercising every day, right?"

"No way." Xu Youyu puffed out his lips. "After the military training, I will take a few days to recuperate. I will prepare to publish a new book. By then, I will focus on the new book and cannot let it affect my state of mind."

"How's the beginning going?" Li Luo asked.

"I've talked to Qianzhou a few times and written a few introductions. You've also made suggestions before, so I guess I'll have to make a few more minor revisions." Xu Youyu sighed, then cheered up again, "But the early plot and framework have been almost finalized, so there's no problem with the general direction."

"After the military training is over, you can take some time to go home and live there. I'll give you some advice." Li Luo lowered his head and kissed Xu Youyu's forehead, and said softly, "When the book is about to be published, remember to tell me, and I'll send you a separate chapter to promote it."

"Really?" Xu Youyu rolled his eyes, raised his head and looked at him with a smile, then bit his lips lightly, his eyes flickered as he asked, "The chapter of the Platinum God is very precious. How can I repay you?"

"Isn't this simple?" Li Luo raised the corner of his mouth, raised his hand to hook Xu Youyu's chin, turned around, pressed her against the wall, and then leaned over to kiss her.

The next second, Xu Youyu's hands were wrapped around Li Luo's neck.

The two people lingered in the stairwell for a long time.

When Xu Youyu returned to the office, the remaining half cup of milk tea had become lukewarm.
