Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 24 You are really talented

"You are really talented, Li Yan."

The calm tone was slowly inserted into the gap between Li Yan's conversation.

Li Yan, who was no longer a blockhead, caught the emotion in these words that he tried hard to hide but to no avail.

So he stopped talking.

Before his rebirth, he loved others praising him for his "talent" and was also keen on showing off his unique understanding in front of others.

He used to enjoy this feeling, especially the fact that he had achieved amazing results with little effort.

But it’s different now. It’s not a wonderful thing to destroy other people’s hard work with your own understatement.

“Everyone has something they are good at,” he said.

"Talent is a gift, a precious gift. Some people have more, some people have less."

Is it possible for a sixth grader to be so artistic?

Li Yan actually has no right to complain about others. Before his rebirth, he had recited a poem on stage in the sixth grade.

“I just don’t have any talent.”

Here comes the most difficult sentence to deal with.

Li Yan thought for a long time, but because he didn't have a very deep impression of Li Xinyuan, he couldn't find any point of comfort.

"It's still early, and many talents have not yet been revealed. And for us right now, having talent in learning is the most important thing."

"It's because I don't have any talent that I can only focus all my energy on studying."

Li Xinyuan finally couldn't hold back the grievance in her heart anymore, and she could no longer hide the loneliness in her eyes.

"You have good grades. This is a kind of talent."

"I worked so hard to get this."

"Hard work can produce results. It is a kind of talent, a rare talent. There is no shortage of hard-working people in the world, but how many of them can get the results they want?"

Li Yan spoke seriously, but overlooked a crucial point.

This sentence does make sense, but anyone can say this to Li Xinyuan except him.

"There is a person who is much better at studying than me without any effort, and he told me that hard work will lead to talent."

It’s over, why did the atmosphere become so awkward?

Li Yan was choked and speechless. Realizing that he was reborn by using the system cheat, he said righteously how shameless such words were.

"Okay," the study committee member quickly adjusted his mindset, "I'm actually very happy to be able to feel the extraordinary aspects of a genius."

Seeing the light in her eyes dimming, Li Yan felt a little uncomfortable.

Why do I feel like I have provoked some serious girlish concerns?
"It's getting late. Your parents will be back soon, right? I should go home and prepare for lunch. Please draw for me next time you have the chance, Li the genius."

Why doesn't it sound right?

But Li Yan still sent her downstairs and waved goodbye.

I'm sorry, study committee member, I have to go to basketball practice this afternoon. I will think about your sadness when I come back in the evening.

What he never expected was that Lin Zhiyuan, who was joking with him on Monday, also fell into emo after playing two games.

Both games ended in 15:13. In the first game, Xiaopang could be considered to have lost narrowly, but in the second game, he was almost in a state of self-abandonment, making all kinds of unintentional mistakes.

Even though Li Yan let the game go on purpose, they still won the game.

Then Lin Zhiyuan sat on the lounge chair with his head down and stared blankly.

"What's the matter?" Li Yan handed over the water, and Xiaopang's hand revealed a depressed mood when he took it.

"You're very talented, Yan."

What? Double goal?

"Actually, after we finished practicing last week, the coach told me that you are a badminton genius and your ability to learn is so strong."

Of course not! The system adds points directly, how can that not be amazing?

Li Yan felt somewhat helpless. Ever since he had spoken at length about the topic of "genius and mediocrity" in front of Chen Wenjing, he had fallen into this vortex.

"He only taught you one class, but you learned almost two classes' worth of content."

"I've been learning basketball for a year. I didn't take you seriously before. I could beat you before I learned basketball, but I lost to you after I learned basketball. Now I can't win even if I try my best." "Do you think I don't know that you let me win in the second round? But even so, I still can't win."

"Master Yan, I feel so frustrated learning basketball from you..."

Lin Zhiyuan sat there dejectedly, neither looking up nor meeting Li Yan's gaze, just talking to himself.

The more he spoke, the quieter his voice became, and the more depressed he became.

"What are you doing? Are you going to give up after losing once?" Li Yan sighed, "How about I lose the game on purpose and then put on a show for you?"

"Well, of course not."

"That's right," Li Yan pulled up Xiao Pang, "but I won't force you. If you really don't want to learn, then we won't learn."

"No, it's just that the frustration is too severe."

“What is my goal?”

"Target?"

"Beat up Coach Ding."

"What are you talking about?" Lin Zhiyuan was so anxious that he laughed, "Teacher Ding is the third in the city competition, what can we use to fight him?"

"Didn't you say I was a genius?"

He has not yet reached the second year of junior high school, but the spirit of junior high school is already burning in Lin Zhiyuan's heart.

"There's something going on..."

Li Yan felt a little ashamed. She used her friend's money to take lessons in order to improve her badminton skills, but ended up destroying her friend's self-confidence. She felt really sorry for him.

I have to find a way to make money, but without the help of information gap and capital, the limitations of being a primary school student are still too great.

"Let's not talk about who loses and who pays for the training. Since we are learning together, it's 50-50. We can still play the game and treat it as a practice. How do you think?"

Who knew that the little fat boy would pose in an exaggerated way, "Is it funny, my deskmate, friend, top student, and great genius Comrade Yan Shao?"

What a weird name...

Ding!
【Tucao +1, total 34】

Is it because of the overall improvement in language and expression that the score is so high?

That’s not right. How can complaining be considered a positive skill?

He didn't dare to think about it anymore, for fear that his skills would be improved accidentally and he would become the king of complaints that made millions of people laugh.

"We agreed to a competition, so we should have a competitive spirit. I was just overwhelmed by frustration, and your family probably wouldn't be happy to let you spend money on training."

Xiaopang was still talking to himself, his expression becoming more and more determined.

"You're such a talented person, I also want to see how powerful you are after training. Maybe you can really beat Coach Ding?"

Li Yan was very touched, and felt even more ashamed of her own little plan.

It would have been better if Xiaopang had taken him to practice basketball together.

Lin Zhiyuan, my good brother, in the future, you will also have a share of the wealth and glory that I have.

"Of course, you don't have to be too grateful to me. I have to practice basketball anyway. It's not fun to practice alone. It's not bad to have you as well."

"If you have any questions about your studies, I will help you."

"Hmm?" Lin Zhiyuan didn't expect this development. He approached Li Yan and grabbed his shoulders. "Brother Yan, Master Yan, President Yan, Boss Yan, are you finally willing to copy my homework?"

The emotion just now disappeared, and Li Yan pushed her deskmate away expressionlessly:
"You're always thinking about taking shortcuts. What I'm saying is that you can ask me if you don't understand something."

"I understand. You want to teach me the secrets?"

Li Yan smiled and nodded, "Lin Zhiyuan, in the next game, if you get ten points, I lose."

In the end, he gained a little more muscle endurance and explosive power, further affirmation from Coach Ding, and Lin Zhiyuan's unyielding roar.

At night, contrary to his usual practice, he did not exercise, memorize words or read classics. Instead, he hid in his room and found a workbook that had lost its meaning to him.

He wants to plant a flower called hope for Li Xinyuan.
