When Li Mingxuan returned home from school on his bicycle, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Back in the room, the light in Lin Siqing's room opposite was not yet on, which made Li Mingxuan feel that it was a very wise decision for him to buy a bicycle.
Lin Siqing walked out of the school gate with him, but she chose to take the bus, and she didn't know where she was stuck now.
He pulled out a book from the bookshelf and sat in front of his desk, and before long, there was a familiar sound of footsteps in the hallway, from far and near.
With such light steps, Li Mingxuan didn't have to guess to know who it was.
Sure enough, within a few seconds, his door was gently pushed open and a small head poked in through the door.
"Teacher Li, you're back!" Chen Jiayao had a smile on her face, pushed open the door and walked in.
As soon as Chen Jiayao's words fell, before Li Mingxuan could speak, he saw a beautiful girl who was a little taller than Chen Jiayao and had a goose egg face walking in behind her.
"Hi big ...... Oh no, Mr. Li, hello! The girl shook her hand and smiled sweetly at Li Mingxuan.
Li Mingxuan stood up, looked at the girl, then at Chen Jiayao, and asked, "Yaoyao, is this, your classmate?" ā
"En, her name is Zhang Keke, she is my classmate, we grew up together." Chen Jiayao glanced at her best friend, then turned her head and said with some expectation: "Teacher Li, Coco's math score is not very good, can you let her listen to your lecture with me?" ā
"Absolutely." Li Mingxuan gave the answer without hesitation.
It makes no difference to him whether to teach one person or two people, and he can't refuse Chen Jiayao's request from this little girl.
"I said it, Mr. Li will definitely agree!"
Chen Jiayao took Zhang Keke's hand and said proudly.
"Thank you, Mr. Li!" Zhang Keke pursed his lips and smiled, acting very well-behaved.
Chen Jiayao secretly said in her heart that Zhang Keke was quite similar to a lady, and she couldn't see the usual crazy girl at all.
Li Mingxuan sat in the middle, and Chen Jiayao and Zhang Keke sat on either side of the desk.
Because he has lectured Chen Jiayao several times, Li Mingxuan is now very proficient, and every time he will pick out a difficult point or key point in the high school mathematics textbook, and give Chen Jiayao a detailed analysis and explanation, by the way, he will also list other hidden knowledge derived from this knowledge point to her one by one to help her form a clear knowledge network.
These are all lessons he learned from his previous work as a tutor.
When Zhang Keke and Chen Jiayao were immersed in Li Mingxuan's explanation, time flew by, and soon, an hour passed.
The alarm clock on the desk was already pointing to half past ten in the evening.
"That's all for today, you can digest what you talked about today after you go back, if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me next time you go to class." Li Mingxuan put down the pen and said to the two girls.
"Huh? So fast? Zhang Keke looked up at his watch and let out an exclamation.
It was the first time she had listened to Li Mingxuan's lecture, and she didn't practice it as early as Chen Jiayao. Take it for granted.
When leaving, Chen Jiayao took out a carefully packaged box from her schoolbag, handed it to Li Mingxuan, and said, "Teacher Li, this is for you." ā
"What is this?" Li Mingxuan took the box and asked suspiciously.
Zhang Keke hurriedly said: "This is a gift that Yaoyao bought for you." ā
"Gifts?"
Now Li Mingxuan is even more puzzled, today is not Teacher's Day or any other festival, what did Chen Jiayao give him a gift for?
Li Mingxuan opened the box and saw a neatly folded white shirt.
"I saw that the shirt that Mr. Li often wears is a little old, and I happened to pass by the clothing store today and saw this shirt at a glance, and I thought this dress was very suitable for Mr. Li, so I bought it." Chen Jiayao said with a smile: "Teacher Li has worked so hard to give me a lecture, and I should buy a gift to thank you." ā
Although Li Mingxuan doesn't know the brand of clothes, looking at the materials and workmanship of this dress, it is far from being comparable to the clothes he usually wears, and I am afraid that this shirt is more expensive than all the clothes he is wearing now combined.
"No, no, I can't accept this gift." Li Mingxuan closed the box and handed it back, refusing and said: "I don't need a gift, you are still in school, and there are still a lot of places where you usually need money, don't spend money indiscriminately." ā
"It's not easy for Sister-in-law Li to make money, you listen to me, take this dress and return it."
Li Mingxuan has his own insistence, he will not let his students spend money to buy gifts for him, except for the fact that he accepted a water cup on Teacher's Day, he rejected other gifts.
"This is not what Yaoyao bought with the family's money, this is what we ......secretly saved by handing out flyers together during the summer vacation," Zhang Keke said defensively, but before she finished speaking, she was stopped by Chen Jiayao's look.
"Teacher Li, you can take it, you can't return the clothes in that store if you buy them." Chen Jiayao looked at him and said.
Li Mingxuan said: "Then you tell me how much this dress is, and I will give you the money as if I bought it myself." ā
Li Mingxuan still felt that if he accepted this gift, it would be no different from those teachers who were morally corrupt and threatened students to give gifts.
At this time, Li Mingxuan didn't realize that what he refused was not a simple gift, what he rejected was the friendship of a young girl in the flower season who was simple and not mixed with a little impurity.
Chen Jiayao's bright big eyes instantly dimmed, looked at Li Mingxuan and said, "If Teacher Li doesn't accept it, I'll throw it away, no one likes it anyway." ā
Looking at Chen Jiayao's stubborn eyes, Li Mingxuan's heart seemed to be touched by something.
He began to wonder if what he had been insisting on for a long time was right.
After a long time, Li Mingxuan sighed and said, "Okay, I accepted your gift, thank you Yaoyao." ā
Chen Jiayao burst into tears and smiled, and said happily, no thanks, Mr. Li will definitely look good in this dress. ā
"You gave the teacher a gift, and the teacher also gave you something."
Li Mingxuan wrapped one hand around the back of his neck, took off the piece of jade he had worn since he was a child, and put it in Chen Jiayao's palm.
This piece of jade was given to him by the master when he was a child, the jade is in an irregular shape, although the appearance looks ordinary, but it is not ordinary, not only has the miraculous effect of calming the mind and calming the mind, but at some times, it can even play the role of a talisman.
Although with the growth of cultivation, this piece of jade has no effect on him, but because of its special commemorative significance, Li Mingxuan has always worn it on his body.
"Thank you, Mr. Li, I like ...... very much"
The moment her palm touched this piece of jade, Chen Jiayao only felt that the palm of her hand was extremely warm, and it seemed that a warm current had surged into her palm, and even her mood calmed down, and she felt an unprecedented peace.
She couldn't help but clench her palms......
