Yue Xin hugged her phone and returned to her room to study. Yue Lingyu wiped his tears and returned to his room to consult his brother. He repeated the conversation he had with Yue Xin to Yue Lingchen and asked sincerely, “Brother, in that situation just now, how should I answer my sister and thank her?”
When Yue Lingchen saw the message, he was speechless. He didn’t know who to educate first.
After a while, Yue Lingyu received Yue Lingchen’s reply.
[If her answer makes you happy, you can say thank you. But if she’s naughty, don’t indulge her.]
Yue Lingyu thought about it. He might have been happy just now. In the past, his understanding of crying was only right or wrong. Now that there was one more option — beautiful.
On the other side, Yue Xin had been practicing crying ever since she returned to her room. However, the first time she tried her best to learn something, she lost terribly. If there was no trigger, she could not cry. Yue Xin imagined that she had been hungry for a long time, but she was too full and could not take it in. She imagined that she would be chased out of the house by her family tomorrow, but when she thought about returning to prison, she could not cry. She imagined that she could not sleep and was extremely sleepy, but in the end, she almost fell asleep…
In the end, she concluded that it was too difficult to cry! She took out her phone and prepared to open Baidu to search… Without Baidu, she opened the class group chat. The group was very quiet now. No one spoke.
Hence, Yue Xin boldly sent a message: [How can I cry?]
After a while, someone answered him. It was Yan Ye, but his answer was wrong.
[Why are you crying? What happened?]
Yue Xin looked at this question and wrote the message seriously. [To shed tears.]
Yan Ye was speechless.
After a while, Li Xiaoyu also texted.[lf I lose the competition with all my might, I will cry. Every time I lose to Yanye, I will cry.]
Yan Ye was speechless once again.
Ni Feng chimed in.
[That’s right. I was so angry that I cried when I competed with Yan Ye to do the questions last time.]
[You, a man, actually cried. Hahaha.] [Did Xiao Bai, who was competing with Yan Ye yesterday, cry?]
The little white fatty appeared and texted.
[I’m crying. I’m crying so badly.]
Yue Xin looked at the chat history and understood. So this could make her cry.
[Yan Ye, I want to compete with you.]
[ … Are you serious?]
[I’m serious.]
[ … Okay.]
The originally quiet class group chat instantly became lively.
Two days ago, Yan Ye asked his mother what would happen if he thought that a girl was beautiful. His mother told him that everyone liked beautiful things. If he thought that a girl was beautiful, he would praise her more. Sincere praise would make people happy. However, if he wanted to get close to her other than thinking that she was beautiful, it was not enough to praise her. He also had to be careful not to do anything that she would hate. The others would be left to fate.
Yan Ye did not fully understand these words, but he understood one thing. Yue Xin competed with him to cry. If he wanted Yue Xin to get what she wanted, he had to win the competition!
He had participated in countless competitions since he was young, but he did not care about winning or losing in any competition. He approached with a learning attitude. As long as he could learn something, winning or losing did not matter. However, he knew very well that he would not lose. It was the same this time.
Yan Ye: [What do you want to compete in?]
Little White Fatty: [Complete in mental calculations with Yan Ye! I watched the show Yue Xin participated in with my sister yesterday. Her mental state was super amazing!]
Gao Yue: [It was about making money, right?]
Little White Fatty: [Yes, did you see it too?]
Gao Yue: [Yue Xin’s part was indeed very impressive. Not only could she do mental arithmetic, but her memory was also quite impressive.]
Li Xiaoyu: [Quick, let’s have a competition on mental calculations. Yan Ye, don’t tell me you don’t dare to do it?]
Yan Ye had never lost to anyone in terms of learning. How could he not dare?
He only replied with one word: [Okay.]
However, since it was a mental calculation, typing could not reflect their speed. Moreover, they could not face each other and could not know if the other party’s answer was really calculated. After a discussion, the students felt that it was still fair to start a video. The other students typed the questions in the group chat. Whoever said the answer first would win.
Seeing the discussion in the group, Yue Xin felt that it made sense. She opened the video with disheveled hair and her face appeared on everyone’s screen at an odd angle.
Li Xiaoyu: [???]
Yan Ye: [???]
Ni Feng: [???]
Gao Yue: [???]
The other students: “???”
After everyone sent question marks, Yue Xin still didn’t feel anything. She looked down at her phone and didn’t pay attention to her image at all..
