Did I get this many questions wrong?

With a deep frown, Shi Yao bit on her pen as she examined the questions that Lin Jiage pointed out.

“This one’s wrong as well, and this one too…” Lin Jiage continued to talk as he looked through the paper. “You’re wasting your time with this mock paper. This is my first time seeing someone getting more wrong answers than right on a Mathematics paper. If you went into the exam hall with this standard, you’d probably just fail the paper.”

What do you mean, I’m wasting my time with this mock paper?

Shi Yao pouted in displeasure. At this moment, she really wanted to cover her paper with her hands so that Lin Jiage wouldn’t be able to look at it anymore.

If I was good at Mathematics, then I wouldn’t need to do this mock paper in the first place. It’s precisely because I’m bad at the subject that I had to go to the library to work on it!

“Are you serious? You actually got this question wrong too? I could already solve this question back in primary school, but you’re still stumbling with it?” Lin Jiage was too focused on Shi Yao’s paper that he failed to realize that she was upset. He continued looking through the paper and shook his head, “Face it, Soft Bun, you’re abnormally bad at Mathematics. But it just so happens that I’m free at the moment, so I’ll reluctantly tutor you out of the kindness of my heart…”

He could have just said that I did the questions wrong, why did he have to make fun of me too?

And also, what the heck is Soft Bun? Is he talking about me? How in the world do I look like a bun? Is he making a personal attack on me?

Not to mention, what does he mean by reluctantly? I have the answer key, I just haven’t finished the paper so I haven’t checked it. Besides, it’s not like I asked for your help. You’re the one who came up to me on your own…

As such thoughts flashed across Shi Yao’s mind, she glared at Lin Jiage in dissatisfaction.

Noticing her displeased look, Lin Jiage unwittingly shot a glance towards that ‘Qin Shou (barbarous beast)’.

He could tell that ‘Qin Shou (barbarous beast)’ could only see his expression and not Shi Yao’s from his point of view. Thus, he turned his eyes back to Shi Yao and curled his lips up dotingly, but the words that came out of his mouth spoke a very different story, “Rest assured, I won’t charge you for my services.”

AHHHH, how in the world can there be such a shameless person in this world?!

Without the slightest hesitation, Shi Yao rejected Lin Jiage, “There’s no need for that. I have the answer key…”

“It’s fine, I really won’t charge you for it. Besides, with your current standards in Mathematics, you probably can’t figure it out from the answer key either, right?” Lin Jiage said as he took the pen from Shi Yao’s hands and began working on the questions that she got wrong, explaining each step in detail.

To be honest, Lin Jiage’s explanations were indeed much easier to understand when compared to the answer key.

Shi Yao was initially a little conflicted, but after hearing his explanation for the first question, she thought about her current failing results in Mathematics, and eventually, she decided to give in. After all, a true heroine must know how to adapt to her circumstances.

During the tutoring session, Shi Yao’s attention was completely focused on the mock paper.

On the other hand, Lin Jiage kept making little actions throughout the entire session. Sometimes, he would press his face very close to Shi Yao’s in the midst of his explanation. Sometimes, he would place his arm over Shi Yao’s shoulder while tapping on the paper with his other hand. Sometimes, he would rest his arm on the back of Shi Yao’s chair… This series of actions looked affectionate and intimate. Any bystanders looking at them would think that they were a couple deep in love.

By the time he was almost done deciphering the entire paper, as Lin Jiage wished, he saw that ‘Qin Shou (barbarous beast)’ had a downcast and miserable look on his face. In that moment, Lin Jiage suddenly felt a great improvement in his mood. Thus, he magnanimously lifted the pen in his hand and came up with several questions at the back of the paper. “Since you understand the previous questions, you should try these questions now.”
