In the space, Lin Wan comfortably nestled for a while, lying on the soft bed, enjoying the wonderful feeling of having a beautiful person in his embrace. His expression was one of great satisfaction.
After a short nap, Lin Wan dreamt of his young, dark-faced English teacher.
“Lin Wan, where’s your homework?!”
!!!
Lin Wan abruptly opened his eyes, waking up from his dream and finally realizing that he hadn’t done his homework yet.
Despairingly rubbing his face, Lin Wan painfully got up and pulled out a thick stack of assignments in front of Luo Zixuan, who looked on in confusion.
Looking at the pile of papers that seemed as incomprehensible as ancient texts, and at the glaring word “skipped” on the answers, Lin Wan felt overwhelmed, nearly going mad.
How could this question be so difficult, yet the answer is just skipped...?
At that moment, Luo Zixuan, who had been quietly sitting next to him, leaned over with a curious gaze at Lin Wan's test paper.
“What are you looking at? Do you understand it?”
Although Lin Wan was still a poor student, he felt quite impressive in front of Luo Zixuan, who was from the world of cultivation and had never undergone nine years of compulsory education—a total bumpkin, in Lin Wan's eyes.
Seeing Luo Zixuan's curious expression, Lin Wan grinned arrogantly and said with a sense of superiority, “Come on, since you’re curious, tell me which option is the correct answer for this multiple-choice question?”
Although Lin Wan couldn't understand why the characters in the cultivation world were the same as those on Earth, he figured that without the language barrier, it would be convenient for him to show off in front of his rival! After just peeking at the answers, Lin Wan thought happily.
Luo Zixuan glanced at the question. Although he had lost his previous memories, he felt an inexplicable familiarity with these test questions.
After looking at a few questions, Luo Zixuan pointed to one of the options with his long fingers.
“I think the answer should be C.”
Lin Wan: ??? Are you just guessing?
Watching Luo Zixuan correctly select the right answer in one go, Lin Wan frowned, feeling a bit annoyed.
“What about this one?”
He directly pointed to the last multiple-choice question, which had a detailed answer filling an entire page—a super difficult problem—and pushed it towards Luo Zixuan, eagerly anticipating his rival’s mistake.
There’s no way Luo Zixuan can be this lucky and get it right every time!
“A”
After glancing at the question, guided by an intense sense of familiarity, Luo Zixuan once again spoke the correct option.
“What about this?” Lin Wan asked skeptically.
“B.”
“This one!”
“ABD.”
Lin Wan: … Why, why can even someone like Luo Zixuan, who hasn’t been to school, get these questions right while I’m struggling?!
Seeing this, Lin Wan’s mentality began to crumble.
“Come on, tell me why you chose those.”
A huge question mark appeared in Lin Wan's mind.
Logically, this shouldn’t be possible. Luo Zixuan had never even attended kindergarten, yet he could pinpoint the correct answers every time? There had to be something fishy going on!
Under Lin Wan’s scrutiny, Luo Zixuan honestly explained his reasoning.
“I don’t really know why, but I just feel like this option is correct.”
??? Are you trying to fool me?
Hearing this, Lin Wan initially felt anger rising but then paused, realizing that what Luo Zixuan said might actually be the truth.
As a cultivator, the higher one’s level, the more terrifying one’s intuition becomes.
At their level, guessing the answer to a multiple-choice question using intuition was almost second nature. Getting it wrong would be the real joke.
Lin Wan hadn’t expected that Luo Zixuan, who looked so upright with his thick brows and large eyes, would resort to using intuition to answer questions...
Realizing he had misjudged him and opening a new door to a different world for himself, Lin Wan’s gaze towards Luo Zixuan became different.
I didn’t know you were this kind of rival.
“Tsk tsk tsk.” While shaking his head in disdain for his rival’s extremely improper study attitude, Lin Wan began to calculate in his mind, feeling quite pleased.
If he could guess all the multiple-choice questions correctly, it would significantly boost his score!
Even though Lin Wan had a very serious attitude towards studying, he was struggling to catch up due to his poor foundation, which made him quite happy with this realization.
To help students study and correct their mistakes, the exercises they usually did came with simplified answers at the back of the workbook.
With the burden of multiple-choice questions lifted, Lin Wan quickly copied down all the answers, then began to look at the math tutor book that his previous math teacher had given him, frowning.
With the aid of his powerful spiritual awareness, Lin Wan's learning efficiency was extremely high. He could completely master the content of the tutoring book after understanding it, never to forget it again.
However, there was just too much he needed to catch up on.
Because too much time had passed, Lin Wan had almost forgotten not just high school knowledge but many middle school concepts as well.
That’s why he had awkwardly sought help from the shop owner Wang to find a tutor—given his situation, if a teacher helped him go through the knowledge points from the beginning to the end, from middle school to high school, his grades would basically be secure.
But until the teacher was found, he still had to rely on himself...
With a sigh, Lin Wan lowered his head and continued to study diligently.
Meanwhile, behind him, Luo Zixuan looked at the tutoring book that had completely captured Lin Wan’s attention, frowning deeply.
What is this book? Why has his partner not even glanced at him since he started reading it?
Feeling aggrieved, Luo Zixuan moved closer to Lin Wan, trying to reclaim a bit of Lin Wan's attention from that damn tutoring book.
However, as he tentatively reached out to touch the edge of the textbook, his hand was violently swatted away by Lin Wan with a loud "smack."
"I warn you, don’t interfere with my studies!"
With a fierce glare at Luo Zixuan, Lin Wan felt a surge of annoyance as he struggled to remember what the Pythagorean theorem was. He was on the verge of losing his mind from studying so hard.
“If you keep messing around here, I’ll throw you out of this space and ignore you!” At that point, let’s see how you, a person without an identity, can survive in this modern society!
Lin Wan threatened fiercely.
!!!
Seeing his partner getting so angry that he seemed ready to kick him out, Luo Zixuan immediately behaved himself. He stopped bothering Lin Wan with his antics and instead sat quietly at the foot of the bed, cross-legged, staring blankly at his partner as he studied.
Caught up in his studies to the point of exhaustion, Lin Wan didn’t realize why Luo Zixuan, who had lost his memory and didn’t know what modern society was, was obediently listening to him.
He simply felt relieved that no one was interrupting his studies anymore.
Lowering his head, Lin Wan dove back into the sea of knowledge, feeling overwhelmed and occasionally splashed by the waves of information, choking on a few mouthfuls of water as he experienced the power of knowledge firsthand.
In Luo Zixuan’s resentful gaze, Lin Wan studied diligently for a long time.
Just when Luo Zixuan propped his head on his hand, feeling like he would wither away from waiting, Lin Wan finally lifted his head from his studies and stretched his stiff shoulders.
Finally, he wasn’t staring at that terrible book anymore. Was his partner finally ready to talk to him?
In Luo Zixuan’s hopeful gaze, Lin Wan indeed looked up and said, “I’m going to school now. You stay here and keep the house safe.”
Luo Zixuan: …
Well, there’s still progress. His partner said this is their home!
Luo Zixuan forlornly munched on his own feelings in response to Lin Wan’s indifferent words. By the time Lin Wan finished instructing him, he had already left the space coldly and headed to school.
He still had a few concepts that he hadn’t grasped in the textbook, so he wanted to get to school early and ask the teacher in the office.
……
In the office, Lin Wan was met with a very kind gaze from the math teacher.
Seeing the various marks on the textbook, the teacher's smile widened.
After carefully explaining those concepts to Lin Wan, the math teacher picked up a thick stack of books from his desk and said gently in response to Lin Wan’s puzzled look,
“The teachers are very happy to see your efforts and specially found supplementary materials suitable for your stage. Keep it up! There’s still some time before the college entrance examination. As long as you work hard, nothing is impossible!”
Looking at the tall stack of books on the desk, as thick as a brick, Lin Wan’s heart trembled.
He closed his eyes in pain, took a deep breath, and when he opened them again, he looked at the math teacher with determination.
“Thank you, teacher! I will definitely work hard and strive for progress!”
