High cold is pretending to be excellent is true

Chapter 19 Bet
Ye Wan didn't know if Zuo Tianxiao was angry last night, or if he was angry now.

After taking a long time to wash up, he saw that Zuo Tianxiao was still sitting in his seat and didn't move. Normally, he would have already gone out at this time, because he moves very fast, so today is a bit strange, and I don't know what's wrong...

Out of some inexplicable apology and guilty conscience, Ye Wan didn't go out directly, but walked over to ask.

"What are you doing?"

Zuo Tianxiao looked up at him, reached out and took the prepared schoolbag and stood up, "No, let's go. You are really slow."

Ye Wan looked at Zuo Tianxiao's back in surprise, hesitated for a moment and followed, "Wait for me?"

"if not?"

"……Oh."

Ye Wan almost asked the three words "why", but his intuition told him that he must not ask these three words, otherwise Zuo Tianxiao would very likely explode in anger.

*
This was the first time Ye Wan had breakfast with Zuo Tianxiao.

The washing speed of boys is much slower, and they don’t have to sit together to eat in twos and threes like girls, so the few in their dormitories are packed up by themselves and go out directly, and no one is waiting for others to have breakfast together Case.

Therefore, Ye Wan was walking side by side with Zuo Tianxiao on the way to the cafeteria, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"What do you eat?" Zuo Tianxiao asked.

Ye Wan glanced at a large row of various breakfasts in front of her, "Sit and eat?"

"if not?"

Ye Wan decisively shut up.

He took a few more glances and said, "I eat wontons."

"Then you buy a place first, and I'll go find you later." Zuo Tianxiao walked to the ordinary window, presumably to eat.

"……Um."

For some reason, Ye Wan felt that this kind of behavior where one person finds a place first and waits for another is a bit weird and inefficient, but... it unexpectedly made him feel very comfortable.It's as if... there is an invisible connection between two people, and although it will be inconvenient, it makes people feel at ease.

*
Ye Wan lowered his head and seriously ate the wontons in the bowl. The wontons just came out of the pot, and they were a little hot, so he had to "hiss" from time to time to cool down.

"Why are you in such a hurry to eat? There's still time." Zuo Tianxiao glanced at him.

Ye Wan's face was slightly reddened by the heat because she kept her face down all the time, a drop or two of sweat oozed from her forehead, and a lot of water steamed out of her eyeballs, making her watery look even bigger.

"No, it's just a little hot." Ye Wan blew on the wonton and put it in her mouth.

"Ah."

*
When Zuo Tianxiao was almost done eating, he suddenly said, "Shall I make a bet with you?"

"what?"

"Today, I guess the grades will come out soon. If the comprehensive ranking of all my grades is among the top five in my age, you promise me one thing, how about it?" Zuo Tianxiao smiled confidently.

"No..." Ye Wan put the spoon in the bowl, "Why did you suddenly think of this? And... why should I make this bet with you?"

Ye Wan thought about it and felt that she had no reason to make this bet with Zuo Tianxiao.

What the hell?If he fails the test, he wins?He didn't want him to do badly in the exam and doubt his strength at all, okay?

But Zuo Tianxiao gave him an unfathomable look as if he had a chance to win, and then quietly said a word: "It's up to you not to treat me as a friend."

"..."

Depend on!Bitter trick!
Ye Wan originally felt a little guilty towards Zuo Tianxiao because of this incident, but he didn't expect Zuo Tianxiao to say it so openly, and suddenly felt even more guilty.

"Or if you tell me how you got this injury, I won't bet on it."

Zuo Tianxiao thought a lot last night. He felt that if he used some external force to force Ye Wan to tell him what he didn't want to say, it probably wouldn't have any effect, and it might have the opposite effect.

And after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the relationship between himself and Ye Wan was indeed not close enough to exchange secrets with each other, and it was understandable for Ye Wan not to say anything.

Even if he cares about Ye Wan, he can't be too eager for success.

So in the end he settled for the second best, and wanted to see Ye Wan's strength first.

In fact, he has always been very interested in Ye Wan's academic performance. Although he has never listened to the class seriously, his grades are still acceptable, so Zuo Tianxiao wanted to know how far Ye Wan would go if he studied hard.

Although he didn't know why Ye Wan showed a non-serious look, at least he wanted to know if there was room for Ye Wan to improve, so that he could decide whether to help him or not.

In Zuo Tianxiao's view, although grades may be too one-sided as a symbol of a person's ability, grades can really become a stepping stone to one's success.If... Ye Wan is stuck in something now, then he hopes to help him with his grades!
*
Ye Wan fell silent after Zuo Tianxiao's words, but it didn't take long for him to say an answer that Zuo Tianxiao expected.

"Okay, what's the bet?"

Zuo Tianxiao smiled, "If my grades are among the top five in my age, you have to study hard before the next mid-term exam, which is before mid-November. I want to know what your grades are about in the grade .”

Ye Wan didn't expect Zuo Tianxiao to make such a big detour because he wanted to know his grades. He felt suffocated for a moment, and then jumped up violently.

"...Why do you want to know this? You will know when my grades are ranked later."

"Cut! Didn't you take the exam blindly? I don't want to read this." Zuo Tianxiao poked the noodles on the plate, "What I said is that you should pay attention to the lectures and homework for a month, and then take the exam seriously. .”

"..." Ye Wan lowered her eyes, "And then?"

"What then?"

"What if I do well in the exam? So what?" Ye Wan looked straight at Zuo Tianxiao.

Zuo Tianxiao was taken aback by him, "What is it..."

He had never seen this kind of look in Ye Wan's eyes before. It contained neither contempt nor sarcasm, but unwillingness, self-deprecating, and... faint, almost invisible sadness.

Zuo Tianxiao coughed and organized his thoughts, "I don't know what kind of environment you are in..."

Ye Wan lowered her head again.

"But I know that no matter how difficult the environment is, good grades are bonus points and can give you unexpected opportunities. You should not give up on yourself."

"It's not that easy..." Ye Wan said in a low voice.

"I don't care if it's easy or not, I just want to know if you can do it. So..." Zuo Tianxiao poked his head slightly and looked at Ye Wan, "The bet is settled?"

Ye Wan looked up at him, as if trying to understand what Zuo Tianxiao was thinking and what he wanted to do.

But Zuo Tianxiao's eyes were too simple and straightforward, there was nothing complicated in it, only a simple desire to help him.

Ye Wan was silent for a while, and then the corners of her mouth gradually curved slightly.

Zuo Tianxiao: "Huh?"

"...Let's go, we're going to be late." Ye Wan stood up first, holding a bowl and preparing to pour it out.

"Hey!" Zuo Tianxiao hurriedly picked up the plate and chased after him, "So you are acquiescing?!"

"..." Ye Wan ignored him.

"Brother Ye! Then I'll take it as if you agreed!" Zuo Tianxiao smiled and walked to Ye Wan's side, "Come here, give me a high five!"

"...Are you sick? Are you childish?" Ye Wan gave him a sideways look.

Zuo Tianxiao clicked his tongue with a smile, then directly grabbed Ye Wan's right hand and patted it.

"Deal!"

"..."
