"Okay," Su Jinnian called Meng Chuyue with a calm expression.
He wasn’t afraid of being caught at all.
After Shen Wenhao left last time, he had found Meng Chuyue, told her that he had lied as Shen Wenhao, and took the opportunity to confess to her.
As a result, Meng Chuyue candidly said that she liked Shen Ci and only wanted to like Shen Ci.
If he was willing, they could interact like good friends or siblings.
If he wasn’t willing, they would be strangers from then on.
Unable to marry Meng Chuyue, Su Jinnian didn’t want to lose Shen Ci as a good friend, nor did he want to miss out on Meng Chuyue’s delicious food, so he agreed to be friends with her and also agreed that if needed, he would carry on with the lie in front of Shen Wenhao.
When Meng Chuyue saw it was Su Jinnian calling, she thought of Shen Wenqian who had reported for duty yesterday, guessed that Shen Wenhao was with Su Jinnian, and said with a laugh, "Aren’t you at work? Why are you calling me at this time? Do you miss the snacks I make? That’s perfect, I just made some, I’ll bring them over at noon."
Her words seemed to imply she would deliver them herself, but Su Jinnian knew that only Shen Ci could deliver the pastries.
Su Jinnian smiled warmly, "I do miss the snacks. However, I’m calling because Shen Wenhao said he wants to treat us to a meal, and as you know, Wenhao is my cousin once removed, my mom is his little aunt."
"Mhm, I remember, but I don’t have time these days, I can’t leave the cram school, but if you want, you can join us for lunch with the students here tomorrow at noon."
Su Jinnian looked leisurely at Shen Wenhao and asked, "What do you think? Shall we go?"
"Let’s go, of course. Tomorrow at eleven, I’ll pick you up and we’ll go together."
Su Jinnian nodded and gently said into the phone, "Wenhao has agreed, we’ll be there around eleven tomorrow."
"Okay, I’ll wait for you. Goodbye."
Su Jinnian hung up without saying anything more to Shen Wenhao and quietly went back to work.
Shen Wenhao looked up, smiled for a while, and then left without a word.
The first two classes in the afternoon were Shen Ci’s math classes.
Although it was their first class, with Meng Chuyue’s written textbooks and the morning’s demonstration teaching, Shen Ci wasn’t timid at all.
He performed very well.
The students, both boys and girls, listened with great interest and when Meng Chuyue audited, she frequently gave him thumbs up, boosting his confidence.
After these two classes, it was the daily routine Meng Chuyue mentioned, the four-page test papers.
The kind where you could order a meal if you got full marks.
Before the test papers were handed out, everyone thought they would be difficult, but they turned out to be of medium to slightly higher difficulty.
Getting full marks didn’t seem hard.
But because of this, everyone was even more careful.
If the test was too hard and they couldn’t get full marks, at least they’d be mentally prepared.
However, it would be too disheartening to lose the chance to order a meal due to careless mistakes with such easy papers.
Everyone took the test very seriously.
With ample time, the four-page tests were allotted ninety minutes, and most of the students finished early.
However, after completing them, none of them handed in their papers and just kept checking, checking, and rechecking...
Until the collection time, they reluctantly let go.
After handing in their papers, everyone studied on their own, while Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci graded the papers.
They asked for Han Muyang’s help.
With only a dozen papers per person, they finished grading in no time.
Meng Chuyue distributed the graded papers and cheerfully said, "Very good, today six students got full marks. That also means six students can order a meal. Come, tell me, would you like to order now for dinner, or order tomorrow morning for tomorrow’s lunch? Tell me what you want to eat, so I can go buy the ingredients."
It was now after four in the afternoon.
Feeling there was plenty of time, the six students, including Shen Wenxi and Liu Cong, all said they didn’t want to wait until tomorrow for the good food.
