Chapter 239: Chapter 239: Are You Giving It or Not? Chapter 239: Chapter 239: Are You Giving It or Not? These questions were much harder than the ones he had given during the day, yet they were similar in essence. With a little thought, they were still easily solvable.
Luo Mengmeng, chewing on her ballpoint pen, thought for a few minutes then began to write.
Gu Zhihan had no more homework to write. He almost knew everything about middle school, so there was no need for him to preview the materials. He simply stared at the young girl working on the problems.
A desk lamp was on, its warm white light now falling on Luo Mengmeng’s drooping cheeks. Her skin, whiter than snow, appeared even whiter under the light, shining with a jade-like luster. Her long eyelashes cast faint shadows in the hollows of her eyes as she focused thoughtfully on the problems.
Her two slender eyebrows would involuntarily furrow when she couldn’t figure out a problem, but as soon as she found the answer, they would immediately smooth out, and her rosy, sparkly lips couldn’t help but break into a smile.
This smile was radiant and joyful, like a cat that had sneakily eaten a fish.
Gu Zhihan was completely mesmerized for a moment.
He didn’t even realize Luo Mengmeng had finished writing down the answers.
“Honey! Gu Zhihan? Hey!?” Luo Mengmeng had called him numerous times, but he seemed spaced out, utterly unresponsive.
Luo Mengmeng couldn’t help getting anxious. She leaned her little face in front of his dark eyes, waving her hand in front of his motionless eyes, “What’s wrong with you?”
“I…” Gu Zhihan finally snapped back to reality, but thinking about how he had been entranced by watching her just now, he couldn’t help feeling embarrassed.
Seeing him stuttering, Luo Mengmeng lost interest in his explanation and directly presented her notebook in front of him, “Stop it, I’ve already finished my problems. Check if I got them right?”
Gu Zhihan, having been let off the hook, immediately took the notebook and began checking, as if trying to force himself to forget the incident just earlier.
After a while, Luo Mengmeng heard him say, “Hmm, all correct.”
Mengmeng’s eyes lit up with joy, and she leaned closer to him, looking up at him, “Then, do I get a reward?”
During the day, when she got the problems right, he took her to the snack shop.
What about in the evening?
What would the reward be?
Gu Zhihan, hearing her begging tone, couldn’t help but glance at her.
No wonder she was so eager to come study with him; it turns out she was thinking about seeking benefits.
“You’re not studying for me, no reward,” he raised his voice slightly as he refused.
Luo Mengmeng pouted, “That’s true, but having a reward makes one more motivated to study!”
Just like how she felt wide awake and energetic after finishing those snacks during the day, completely in love with studying.
Gu Zhihan thought for a moment, realizing she had a point, so he asked again, “Then what reward do you want?”
His narrow, dark eyes stared at the girl in front of him, awaiting her response.
“Of course…” Luo Mengmeng, as if she had premeditated this, said without hesitation, “A kiss, yours.”
Saying this, she leaned her face towards his.
“I’ve never seen a girl as bold as you!” Gu Zhihan’s ears tinged red, and through gritted teeth, he managed to squeeze out those words.
Mengmeng, far from being ashamed, took pride in it, pointing at herself, “Well, aren’t you seeing one now?”
Gu Zhihan was speechless.
“So, are you going to give it or not?” Luo Mengmeng, seeing that he hadn’t moved, instinctively blushed, glaring at him in a fit of pique.
Although she was thick-skinned, she was still a girl, after all, and knew what it was to feel embarrassed and awkward.
