Aristocrat Boys School

Chapter 139 Waiting

Being able to have Shen Shuting, who was disdainful at the beginning, say these words, take the initiative to say these words, Jian Chi wondered if the person on the other side was really him.

But obviously, the only person who can say ‘chasing’ as if he was giving an order was Shen Shuting.

This was a minor episode. After the excitement was reduced, it was replaced by new things. Jian Chi’s life did not change much, except that he began to pick up all kinds of flowers in the places he frequented.

The variety was different every time, like an endless guessing game, with rewards scattered in all directions waiting for Jian Chi to discover. A week later, Jian Chi took all the flowers he received to Shen Shuting’s garden. He didn’t know if it was expected or a coincidence, but he bumped into Shen Shuting.

“You don’t need to send these flowers anymore. The environment in the bedroom is not suitable for growing plants. The best choice is to let them stay in the garden.”

Shen Shuting glanced down at the few bouquets in Jian Chi’s arms, with his hands hanging beside him, refusing to take it, “No need to raise it.”

Jian Chi: “?”

“It’s enough to just leave it alone.” 

To be able to throw such expensive flowers to him who doesn’t know how to garden at all, without even asking him to take good care of it, Jian Chi didn’t know whether to say Shen Shuting was using his capital to waste at will, or whether he would sacrifice everything in his hand in order to achieve his goals.

The troubled look on Jian Chi’s face fell into Shen Shuting’s eyes, stirring up a wave, “You don’t like flowers?”

“It doesn’t really count as liking or not, I’m worried that they won’t be raised well, and I don’t have the time to take care of them.” This was Jian Chi’s truth. He was not Shen Shuting who needed to rely on these things to ease his pressure, but Shen Shuting, who was the gifting party, didn’t care about it at all. Instead, it was Jian Chi, who received the gift, who couldn’t help but feel pain for him.

He added another sentence: “And some things don’t have to be in your hands for it to be good. Flowers look better when they grow in the soil than when they are taken out and packaged.”

He didn’t know if these words touched Shen Shuting, but he lightly twisted the roses to show their petals. There was a moment of silence, “What do you like?”

Jian Chi paused for a while, of course, he did not miss the awkwardness in Shen Shuting’s words. The content of the text message jumped up, half in disbelief, half tentative: “Why do I have to tell you? I don’t need you to send these things.” 

With a little force, the delicate petals were wrinkled and a few drops of juice overflowed. Shen Shuting lowered his eyebrows, revealing a familiar coldness with a hint of embarrassment, “Do you have to make me say it personally?”

Jian Chi relaxed his tone, “This expression is more suitable for you, your ability to pretend to be gentle is terrible.”

Shen Shuting tore off the rose petal.

After ‘humiliating’ Shen Shuting, Jian Chi thought he would get enlightened and stop harassing him from now on. In fact, Shen Shuting did get enlightened, but in a completely different direction from what he expected. He didn’t know what strange tutorial he watched on the Internet. After Jian Chi reminded him, Shen Shuting stopped sending flowers, but called him to the office as the president one day later.

This time, Jian Chi was very cautious. He opened a crack in the door to see what was going on inside, and then slowly entered. He leaned on the door and asked Shen Shuting, “What’s going on this time?”

Shen Shuting was wearing those rimless glasses, seeming aloof. After being reminded, there was no deliberate tenderness, and it looked more pleasing to the eye. With his eyes, he motioned Jian Chi to sit in the chair in front of him, and spat out two familiar words: “Come here.”

This made Jian Chi regret what he said yesterday, but watching Shen Shuting pretend was also very interesting, at least more interesting than experiencing his true nature.

“You say something first, then I’ll decide if I’ll come over.”

Shen Shuting turned the notebook in front of him and pushed it forward, “From now on, you will come to my office for an hour every afternoon, don’t rush to refuse, your various departments teacher have no opinion, can you come over now?”

Jian Chi was speechless, “How can you… abuse your private power?”

“This is not an abuse of private power,” Shen Shuting, “this is a reasonable use of my power.”

He couldn’t win over Shen Shuting, Jian Chi could only go over with a sigh. After sitting down, he found that the content on Shen Shuting’s notebook screen was actually a textbook. When he looked at Shen Shuting’s eyes behind his glasses, he saw his lips raised and his smile was not warm. Jian Chi asked: “This is…”

“This is what you like”

Jian Chi: “…”

There should be no one in the world who can chase people like Shen Shuting.

He had to say that Shen Shuting, who was speaking about the topics was much more serious than usual, at least he would not say some scolding words, not to mention that the phrase ‘this is what you like’ was not wrong. For the elites who have received aristocratic education since childhood, they were still a long way off. Shen Shuting was very difficult to describe in all aspects, only his brain was exceptionally good, so good that Jian Chi was a little bit stifled by it.

“Three questions wrong.”

After correcting his educational subjects that Jian Chi handed in, Shen Shuting put the cap on the pen, straightened his back and looked at Jian Chi who was waiting for an hour to pass quickly. His lens covered the dark light in his eyes, “Come here, I’ll explain it to you.”

So far Shen Shuting’s behavior had been within the normal range, Jian Chi hesitated for a few seconds before walking around the desk, just like a primary school student waiting for one-on-one guidance from the head teacher in elementary school, following the red marks on the paper. Shen Shuting then took his body into his arms and sat him on his lap, Jian Chi was unresponsive by the sudden shock. Shen Shuting’s stern voice sounded: “I explained a similar question to you just now. How could you do something wrong?”

Jian Chi opened his lips and almost bit his tongue, “Shen Shuting, you…” Which one was it now?

He didn’t answer in time, Shen Shuting slapped his buttocks and said coldly, “What did you call me?”

Jian Chi’s eyes were blank for a few seconds, then burnt from neck to face, unable to believe that Shen Shuting hit him. The word ‘you’ was repeated several times before he could say the complete sentence: “Are you sick?”

“I thought you liked this,” Shen Shuting said, “You said gentleness is not suitable for me, so I will be rough, do you not like it?”

If he couldn’t see the revenge in Shen Shuting’s eyes now, Jian Chi could only be called a fool.

Petty man.

In the end, Jian Chi was forced to sit on Shen Shuting’s lap and listen to him explain the three wrong questions. From time to time, he endured his breath and lips that almost brushed his ears. During this period, he couldn’t call Shen Shuting’s name directly, he had to call him teacher. This usually normal sounding title had an erotic feeling at the moment, Jian Chi couldn’t say it, so he was spanked again. He said ‘Teacher Shen’ in the lowest voice, before Shen Shuting stopped.

He clearly learned how to solve the problem, but Jian Chi felt that he had lost a lot of advantage. It would be wrong to say that it was pain like happiness. It was more him aggrieved but benefitting a lot. On the day of the mock test, Jian Chi first glanced at the questions when he got the test paper, many of which were the types of questions that Shen Shuting had highlighted for him in advance. When he saw it, he first thought of Shen Shuting’s perverted and bad taste, and then the clear problem-solving process. Jian Chi didn’t know whether to scold Shen Shuting first or to thank Shen Shuting.

After taking the last subject, Wen Chuan was waiting for him at the door of the classroom. The exam time distribution was scattered, not the whole school took the same subject in a unified way. Saintston was an elective system, so some students finish early, and some students may wait until the last batch to finish all their exams. Wen Chuan’s subject selection had an advantage and ended early.

“How do you feel?”

Taking the mineral water that Wen Chuan handed over, Jian Chi moistened his throat and let out a long sigh of relief, “It was alright, you finished so early, did you have enough time to write the questions?” Saintston’s exam compared with ordinary high schools gave an abundant amount of time, but the corresponding amount of examination papers were exaggerated.

Wen Chuan waited for Jian Chi to take a few sips and return the bottle. He didn’t rush to screw on the cap, and walked beside Jian Chi: “I have done everything I know. Since you finished the test, there is no need to think about it. Just wait for the result with peace of mind.”

Jian Chi knew that the ‘done everything I know’ in Wen Chuan’s mouth not only represented what he could do, but his 100% accuracy rate. In the beginning, they were in the study group together, and Wen Chuan still had questions to discuss with him from time to time, and then gradually it developed to Zhang Yang and Shao Hang getting a book and asking for help.

Of course, Shao Hang would never ask Wen Chuan, he probably wouldn’t be able to save his face. But once Jian Chi was not there, Zhang Yang later told him that Shao Hang couldn’t solve the problem and had to throw the book in front of Wen Chuan with a black face, but Wen Chuan ignored it. After they argued for a long time, did Wen Chuan write down the answer. There was no problem-solving process, just the answer, Shao Hang immediately thought that Wen Chuan was insulting him, and the two quarreled for a while, but it was more correct to say that it was Shao Hang’s unilateral yelling.

Zhang Yang couldn’t help laughing when he described the scene, “they were like elementary school students bickering, and later Shao Hang insisted that I write the problem-solving process for him. Why do you think a scumbag needs to make it difficult for a scumbag?”

Jian Chi heard his description, and could not help but laugh.

It’s hard to imagine that Shao Hang and Wen Chuan had beaten each other to the death by the swimming pool, but at that time Shao Hang’s mouth was too sharp to be reasonable. The two people who were once labeled ‘dangerous’ by Jian Chi can now quarrel over a math problem, and neither of them would make a move again.

It’s an improvement.

“Jian Chi?”

When he got back his focus, Jian Chi replied, embarrassedly saying, “What did you just say?”

Wen Chuan did not show displeasure because of Jian Chi’s distraction, and he wasn’t sure when he twisted the mineral water bottle in his hand. Putting the lid on, Jian Chi felt that the water inside seemed to be a little less when he drank it. He just raised his head and met Wen Chuan’s eyes, which were as heavy as obsidian, so beautiful that Jian Chi remembered the pair of cuffs that Wen Chuan gave him on New Year’s Eve.

“I just asked which university you want to go to.”

Jian Chi felt that he had been asked this question many times, and gave the same answer as before. Wen Chuan nodded, looking like he was thinking deeply. He looked out the window at the few birds, “Do they all know?”

Who the ‘they’ was referring to was not named, but Jian Chi could tell, and without waiting to speak, Wen Chuan’s cold voice slowly sounded: “This must have heard this sentence many times, or you can pretend well, since I hope you can hear it for the first time.”

Jian Chi’s heart beat faster, “What?”

“I will take the test with you to get to the same city,” Wen Chuan turned his head. “At that time, would you like to be with me?”

The bell rang for the start of the next test, and a flock of frightened birds flew up from the tree, setting off a thumping sound. Jian Chi looked into Wen Chuan’s eyes, and answered him in a deep and solemn manner.

He once thought that Wen Chuan’s thoughts were restrained and worn away in the depression, so he could return to the previous state of them getting along. But he forgot that Wen Chuan just chose to wait for his response while attacking and defending.

There must be a time limit in waiting.
