A Girl Conquers the World Through Her Tears

Chapter 9

Lin Jianzhi was completely numb as she changed her shoes and followed Zhu Liheng forward. She didn't dare look around, and didn't know what arc she should move her hands and feet in.

The layout of the upstairs and downstairs suites was the same. Eventually, Zhu Liheng pushed open the door of the secondary bedroom.

"I'll teach you in my room." He said lightly.

"Okay, okay." Lin Jianzhi stuttered and nodded in response.

Zhu Liheng's room was right under hers, she realized for the first time.

His room was tidy and clean, with very few things in it, apart from the bed and wardrobe, there was only a large desk.

On the desk there were only books, a computer, paper and pens.

Oh, and a basketball too.

In contrast to her room which was full of all kinds of messy things.

His life seemed very simple, extremely simple.

Zhu Liheng pulled two chairs and placed them parallel in front of the desk, indicating for her to sit.

Lin Jianzhi hurriedly sat down and took out the books from her school bag.

But Zhu Liheng put the books aside and said, "You won't need those, take out some papers."

Lin Jianzhi hurriedly took out a stack of papers.

Zhu Liheng randomly took out one piece and spread it out on the table, "Do one first, I'll flip through the rest."

Lin Jianzhi didn't even dare to speak, she just lowered her head and stared at the paper.

She was extremely nervous, her hand holding the pen was shaking, and her breathing was rapid.

How could she even focus on doing the papers in this state!

A ballpoint pen reached over and tapped on her paper.

Knock knock!

Zhu Liheng: "Concentrate, don't get distracted."

Lin Jianzhi lowered her head even more.

The two were sitting side by side, less than a meter apart.

In this small room, sitting so close together, it was hard not to let one's mind wander!

Lin Jianzhi didn't even dare to breathe too loudly!

She glanced at the person next to her. His increasingly alluring side profile was so close, the whole room was filled with that scent.

Filling her nose and mouth, making her brain dizzy.

Next to her, Zhu Liheng flipped through piles of math papers. He first looked through the ones Lin Jianzhi had done, and categorized the types she was good at and weak at.

Then he turned over that stack of blank papers, circling problems on the papers with his pen, picking and choosing.

After flipping through dozens of papers, an hour had passed.

Lin Jianzhi had only done ten multiple choice questions, and got five wrong.

For a while, the atmosphere in the room was silent. Even Zhu Liheng seemed a little speechless for a moment.

Lin Jianzhi's eyes turned red. She really was hopeless stupid.

Zhu Liheng looked at the questions she got wrong and asked, "You used the wrong formula here, why?"

Lin Jianzhi was so embarrassed her face turned bright red, her voice was as small as a mosquito's, "I don't know which formula I should use."

Zhu Liheng: "I looked at your problems, it seems you basically don't understand probability, sequences, and trigonometric functions?"

Lin Jianzhi lowered her head deeply, "I can't remember the templates for those types of questions."

Zhu Liheng frowned, "Math formulas and questions are not something you memorize, but inference."

Lin Jianzhi: "Mm..."

Zhu Liheng: "I see you did the geometry questions quite well, because there were diagrams?"

Lin Jianzhi answered honestly: "I can measure from them..."

Zhu Liheng: "You can also draw graphs for trig functions. In fact, probability can also be explained graphically, including sequences too."

As he spoke, he took out a blank sheet of paper and sketched graphical representations of each formula on the spot.

The pen was like a ruler in his hand, drawing perfectly straight lines. The circles were drawn out seamlessly in one stroke.

As he drew, he explained.

Lin Jianzhi felt like she was relearning math from the start.

He placed the formulas and graphs in front of Lin Jianzhi, then threw over the questions he had picked out.

Zhu Liheng: "Do these questions using the formulas above. Try reasoning backwards, draw graphs for each question, don't worry about wasting scrap paper."

With this targeted, filtered approach.

Lin Jianzhi felt her condition had improved greatly. Doing questions was a magical process.

Thinking and reasoning gradually relaxed and calmed her, making her forget she was in her crush's room as she focused on the questions before her.

Zhu Liheng glanced at her. She still got two wrong out of these questions.

Late at night, Lin Jianzhi let out a long breath and put down her pen.

Next to her, Zhu Liheng was going over the questions she did, pointing out why she got them wrong.

Lin Jianzhi listened carefully, feeling rather enlightened.

She realized her way of thinking about math had always been wrong, starting from the first step.

Like finding a needle in the sea, no wonder she didn't know how to start.

But Zhu Liheng's method of reasoning backwards was different. From God's perspective, once her thinking opened up, many problems became simple.

As for the two she got wrong, Lin Jianzhi felt somewhat annoyed at herself for being so stupid!

She wasn't used to this reverse thinking yet.

But Zhu Liheng saw it differently: "Good progress for the first day."

Lin Jianzhi immediately felt confident again.

Things even the teacher couldn't help her with, were smoothly solved with Zhu Liheng.

She admired him even more.

Zhu Liheng started tidying the desk: "Alright, it's almost midnight, let's stop here for today. Same time tomorrow."

It was almost midnight already!

Lin Jianzhi hurriedly stood up: "Thank you for your time, I've delayed you too."

Zhu Liheng looked at her, his gaze lingering on her face, "This isn't a waste of time."

Thump thump!

Thump thump!

Lin Jianzhi's heart rate suddenly sped up.

What does he mean by that?

Zhu Liheng: "Learning is a big deal in life. One grows throughout their life, absorbing all kinds of knowledge."

"Oh..." Lin Jianzhi nodded.

Leaving Zhu Liheng's home, Lin Jianzhi still hadn't returned to her senses.

She had actually stayed at his house until midnight!

How unreal was that!

Ah, that's right, WeChat!

Lin Jianzhi looked at the closed front door, feeling somewhat disappointed.

How should she ask Zhu Liheng for his contact details?

She didn't dare ask outright.

Back at home, her parents were already asleep.

Lin Jianzhi went into her room, changed into pajamas and slipped under her quilt.

Today, she had spent a long, long time alone with Zhu Liheng.

She wanted to record it down, but social media...

She opened social media and took a look. The barrage of comments from before had stopped increasing, and no more private messages flooded in.

Everything had returned to normal.

Nobody should be paying attention to her anymore right?

Moreover she had changed her username!

But even so, Lin Jianzhi didn't dare speak freely on social media.

She simply posted a photo of math test papers and a pen, with a timestamp.

'@ZhuJianForever: 2022/05/10'

This was an important date for her.

Recording it carefully, not daring to indulge.

Downstairs.

After showering, Zhu Liheng lay in bed and opened social media on impulse. He clicked into his secret follows.

In his list of secret follows, there was only one user.

The content of the user 'ZhuJianForever''s post was extremely vague.

That watermark-free photo concealed all the feelings, silently.
