At the end of the May Day holiday, the class carried out a unique seat change ceremony, which was to choose their own seats according to the order of the mid-term exam results. Liu Nan was the third, but he didn't choose the front row like the top two, but chose to stay in place in the penultimate row. Cheng Liu was the last one, and theoretically he had no choice, but his fox friends and even the top students gave him enough face and left the seat next to Liu Nan to Cheng Liu. So, Cheng Liu and Liu Nan finally sat together.

Chengliu was originally overjoyed by this result, but within a few days, he was a little miserable. Because, under Liu Nan's supervision, he never slept in class again. He didn't understand, so he began to read other books, novels, histories, and all the books that Liu Nan had prepared for himself. Day after day, he gradually felt that learning was not so difficult, it was just a matter of spending more time. But how did he know that the materials and learning methods given to him by Liu Nan were sorted out by Liu Nan's mother in order for Liu Nan not to fall behind in Hunan, and she also asked professional teachers to make adjustments, with detailed explanations and annotations, as long as you are willing to spend time reading and practicing, your grades will not be bad.

Liu Nan became Chengliu's strict teacher, at first it was just out of gratitude to Chengliu for maintaining herself, and gradually, she saw that Chengliu's learning potential was so deep, so she also admired him a little. Although Nariyu can't memorize it, he can recite any article fluently no more than three times. This is the foundation laid by Cheng Liu's many years of reading novels, which is also thanks to the teachings of his junior high school Chinese teacher: "If you really don't want to study, read more novels, read novels, and only read classics." So, he finished reading the four great Chinese classics, and then began to travel in the world classics. He reveled in the beautiful rhetoric of the Chinese classics, and also admired the profound philosophical thinking of the Western classics. He had read Jin Yong's language, and the language of other entertaining novels could no longer arouse his interest. He had read Hemingway's words for word, and he felt that other complicated descriptions had become cumbersome. This gave him a certain degree of literary literacy, and he also practiced the ability to read books at a glance. These skills are used in learning, which is naturally like a tiger with wings.

What surprised Liu Nan even more was Chengliu's ability to understand. The science difficulties that Liu Nan took a long time to understand, Cheng Liu, can understand it at a point, and sometimes Cheng Liu, in turn, will help Liu Nan understand. With the help of Liu Nan, Cheng stayed in his studies and gradually found his self-confidence, put down the novel in his hand, and put his mind on studying. He didn't have a good foundation in mathematics, so she asked him to learn mathematics in junior high school; He didn't speak English well, so she helped him start with the simplest grammar. Liu Nan knows that there is a way of learning, called the Feynman learning method, teaching the knowledge learned to others, and his own knowledge will be more consolidated. So, she didn't delay herself in the slightest.

Liu Nan also talked to Cheng Liu a lot about the benefits of reading, but instead of the cliché arguments that learning makes people happy or learning makes people wise, he took out relevant data to explain. She compares the general life experiences of those who study and those who do not study in the future, and she compares the average income of college graduates and ordinary college graduates...... It seems that in every item, the person who learns well wins. But none of what Liu Nan said really touched the reason for Chengliu to study hard, and the only reason that triggered him to study was that she wanted him to learn, and he would study hard. Of course, this reason will not be said.

Chengliu also seems to have become Liu Nan's work, she hopes that this work will become more and more perfect, so the requirements for him are becoming more and more strict. But Cheng Liu is tired of these enviable strictness, he never thought about the future, as long as Liu Nan is strict with himself for a day, he will feel happy, if one day Liu Nan disappears from the dream, it doesn't matter if his life is over.

Cheng Liu's monthly exam results at the end of May improved by more than 20 people, which made the whole class look at him with admiration. But his "scumbag" friends did not attribute Chengliu's progress to his efforts at all, and the reason for the uproar was because he had the power of love. In fact, he and Liu Nan both wanted that the kind of "love" of not changing the well water for the river water could go further, but no one spoke first. She was embarrassed, she thought that this kind of thing should not be mentioned by girls in the first place, so in addition to the help in learning, she still behaved coldly, and she used this coldness to make a punishment for indifference. He didn't dare to speak, he was afraid that his abruptness would destroy the original relationship, and he was afraid of the embarrassment of each other after refusal, because he was not sure whether her kindness to him was because of the so-called "family affection" or "love". So they still maintain a relationship that is neither ambiguous nor friends.

Time passed happily and fully, but more than two months also seemed cramped. The last exam results of his sophomore year came out, and Cheng Liu's results were still surprising, because he was back in the penultimate place. After several exams, the total score was only 58 points, because it only took him half an hour to write the Chinese composition with a total score of 60 points, and all the other test papers were blank papers.

"You can get into the twenty places!" Liu Nan took Chengliu's report card and was a little dissatisfied with his "works", "Why do you want to hand in a blank paper?" ”

Cheng Liudao: "Because I don't want to choose a seat. Cheng Liu had expected that his behavior would be blamed by Liu Nan, but he had his own reasons for doing so. He is worried that the seats for next semester will still be selected according to the order of grades, if he takes the exam seriously, he will really enter the twenty as Liu Nan said, and there will be many good seats within the twenty that are not at the same table with Liu Nan. If he gives up those good positions and chooses to share a table with Liu Nan, it will definitely cause his classmates to coax, and if he coaxes together, he will be suspicious of the relationship between the two of them by the teacher. If the teacher is suspicious, he will beat the "mandarin ducks", although they are not mandarin ducks yet. But he couldn't help but choose to be Liu Nan's tablemate, so he entered a dilemma. Therefore, he might as well repeat his old tricks and give up his choice, anyway, his classmates will definitely give up that position to him, and even if someone coaxes him, he will be forced by himself.

But Liu Nan didn't understand it this way, she mistakenly thought that Cheng Liu didn't want to choose a seat, because he didn't want to be at the same table with her anymore. Her arrogant face instantly became serious and lost, and then became sad, and even felt that Cheng Liu's stay was unreasonable. "The help I worked so hard to help him turned out to be a kind of torture for him." Liu Nan laughed at himself in his heart. Since Chengliu is unwilling to approach him, what qualifications do he have to care about his grades? It's really self-inflicted. He returned the transcript to Chengliu and left without looking back.

Seeing her leave angrily, Chengliu immediately discovered the misunderstanding, so he hurriedly caught up with her and told her what he thought. Liu Nan listened, and then he was angry, but he was also reserved and did not show joy. Although Liu Nan did not understand Chengliu's extreme approach, he was still very pleased with his motives. "So he's doing it for me?" Thinking of this, her pretty face blushed slightly, and in order to hide her shyness, she said casually: "I thought you didn't want to be my tablemate." And he ran forward.

Chengliu saw Liu Nan's shyness after being relieved, so he didn't chase after him again. His heart was beating fiercely, and it turned out that she would be angry that she didn't choose to share the table with her, which was a strong signal. Suddenly, he found that their relationship seemed to be one step closer, not a couple, but a couple, like a platonic love he had heard. The thought was completed in the electric light and stone fire, and at this time, Cheng Liu, who was in a state of excitement, saw Liu Nan in front of him and turned around and said, "Don't worry about the teacher's suspicion, we are not afraid of shadows." With that, he turned around and walked away. It turned out that after Liu Nan finished saying the sentence "I thought you didn't want to be my tablemate...... she instantly realized that she seemed to be revealing something, how could this kind of thing be said by herself, so she turned around and added the next sentence. And this sentence made Chengliu's excited heart calm down again.

……

Every weekend before the summer vacation, Chengliu would pretend to accompany Zeng to patrol the mountains, but every time he found nothing. Lao Yao also often sent people up the mountain to "assist" Zeng Confession, of course, the assistance is fake, and it is true to inquire about Zeng Confession's progress. After learning that Chengliu was the righteous son of the old man Zeng, he began to call Chengliu and Zeng Confession brothers, and the relationship gradually became familiar. Of course, they all understand that this familiarity is just a performance. Zeng confessed for the deer, the old medicine for the treasure, and Cheng stayed for those secrets. Due to the huge common interests, Lao Yao also forcibly suppressed Xiaoyao's resentment against Chengliu, so even if Xiaoyao was injured, he never went to the school to find Chengliu again. And that poor Huang Xiaoxi, because the last time Aunt Mei shot in the abandoned yard at the intersection of the school, he ran away before everyone, so he was repaired by those minions who laughed at fifty steps and laughed at a hundred steps, and was kicked out of Xiaoyao's circle of friends. At school, although Chengliu no longer troubles him, he will still take a detour when he sees Chengliu.

Summer vacation is coming, and they are about to embark on a trip to Beijing.
