When Tang Lingfei returned home, it was already dark, and her parents had already returned home from work.

Mom and Dad were watching TV.

The lazy appearance of the two of them slumped on the sofa made Tang Lingfei suddenly realize that the fact that she used to like to watch TV paralyzed should belong to the family history. But this is a little puzzling - Xu Zhe's parents don't seem to be special, how can they raise such a powerful son?

Tang Wanghai suddenly spoke: "Have you had dinner?" ”

Tang Lingfei nodded: "Yes, in Xiao Yezi's house, Xu Zhe cooks." ”

"It's so good......" Tang Wanghai's exclamation had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by a slap on his wife's leg.

"You think it's so good, why don't you go to someone else to eat? What are you doing with what I made? ”

Tang Wanghai smiled at his wife: "It's delicious, really!" ”

The parents just casually exchanged a few words, and then they were about to continue watching TV. But being a daughter today is different.

Tang Lingfei also sat on the sofa, but her mind was not on the TV screen. She observed the expressions of the two parents, and suddenly said tentatively: "If a child wants to study hard, then the parents ...... Should it cost her money? ”

Tang Wanghai suddenly became vigilant: "You have enough pocket money, don't believe it and ask Xu Zhe next door." ”

Tang Lingfei: "He will make his own money, it's different." ”

Tang Wanghai: "Forget it, compare him to bullying people, just say that your good friend Xingye classmate ......"

Tang Lingfei: "Don't you bully people if you compare Xiaoyezi with me?" ”

Tang Wanghai smiled: "Then who do you say you will compare with?" You've got these two best friends, and they're both so good and their pocket money is lower than yours, right? Xingye's classmates used to have more pocket money than you, but now there is an accident in the family, and it is lower than you, but his grades have not changed at all. ”

The mother also helped: "If there is progress in the grades, it should be rewarded." But you have to eat one bite at a time, and you can't rush to ask for money if you have a little progress. What's more, do we spend less money for your studies? ”

Tang Wanghai: "That's it, although Xu Zhe and Xingye have a low price and good effect, but with such long-term uninterrupted tutoring, our family is also bleeding." Do you know that the amount of meat in the dishes your mother cooked for me is getting smaller and smaller? ”

The mother sneered: "What's the matter if you eat less meat, I don't buy expensive skin care products anymore, and now I use Dabao!" ”

The habitual complaints of her parents made Tang Lingfei stunned when she heard it. However, she felt that something was wrong. Are these two people at odds?

The girl frowned and said, "But I didn't ask you to give me pocket money." ”

Tang Wanghai couldn't help but be stunned: "Then what do you say you want parents to spend money?" You can't still sign up for any tutorial classes, right? ”

Tang Lingfei: "What I want to say is, that ...... It's an experimental high school in a provincial town, you know? Xu Zhe told me that if I wanted to go to that school, I could pay to get in. ”

Tang Wanghai: "Can the experimental middle school spend money to get in?" I really don't know. ”

Tang's mother slapped her thigh: "Oh, the child is willing to go to a good school, this is a good thing!" ”

Tang Wanghai glanced at his daughter and said meaningfully: "Is it a good school or a good friend that attracts you?" ”

Tang's mother: "It's okay to go for good friends, just don't talk about friends." Old Tang, you go and ask, see how you can contact the teacher of the experimental middle school. ”

Tang Wanghai: "You have no way, and I have no way!" ”

Before the words fell, I saw my wife's eyes glaring: "So let you ask!" ”

"Who do I ask?"

"Ask your old friend first."

"Old Xu? He's not...... Wait, it seems like he really knows some people. ”

"Even if he doesn't know him now, his son is so good at studying, and he can use his son's reason to find someone, then it's easy to find, right?"

The couple guessed this, and they had already decided what they would do next.

Tang Lingfei suddenly asked: "It's not okay to add pocket money to me, but it's okay to spend a lot more money to go to school?" ”

The couple said in unison: "Of course! ”

On the morning of a new day, Shen Lan called Xu Zhe and asked as soon as he came up, "Aren't you still going to the office today?" ”

Xu Zhe: "I don't have anything special to do lately, and besides, I still have to tutor and study." ”

Shen Lan: "Do you want to tutor Tang Lingfei?" ”

"Yes."

Xu Zhe's answer was only such a simple word, but when it hit the girl's eardrum, it had a special weight.

She also felt that Song Xingye should be the biggest threat, after all, she was at the same table as Xu Zhe, and she had a lot of time to get along with each other every day in school. But after skiing not long ago, she realized that Tang Lingfei, her childhood sweetheart, was more threatening......

Shen Lan said in a joking tone: "I also need tutoring, why don't you tutor me to learn programming?" ”

Xu Zhe: "You are smarter than me, you learn faster than me, and you still need my counseling?" ”

Shen Lan: "......"

How can even being smart become a disadvantage?

But the thought of complaining was fleeting. Shen Lan immediately thought clearly, instead of pretending to be stupid and letting him tutor him, it was better to work hard to learn to become the most effective helper and comrade-in-arms, so that he could stand beside him on an equal footing.

With Shen Lan's understanding of Xu Zhe, she felt that only a close match could last long. Although this young man is kind and willing to do good deeds, he is a very assertive person. If it will only drag its feet, sooner or later he will be far behind.

Shen Lan suddenly thought of a key point, and asked, "By the way, how are Tang Lingfei's grades?" ”

Xu Zhe: "Eighty or ninety in the grade, it's okay." ”

"That's ......"

Shen Lan's voice was still calm, but the corners of her mouth hooked up a little arc of a smile.

If you want to go to the same high school as yourself and Xu Zhe, eighty or ninety grades are far from enough, at least the top thirty grades are possible, and the top twenty grades dare to say that it is more stable. In other words, this seemingly threatening childhood sweetheart stayed by Xu Zhe's side until he graduated from junior high school at most.

So, what's the threat?

No, you can't underestimate the enemy, you have to consider the bad results-Shen Lan secretly reminded herself.

But even if she thinks about it in a not optimistic direction, she feels that it is nothing more than that Tang Lingfei finally overcame Xu Zhe's mental defense and fell in love for a short time while they had not been separated in the past two years.

Xu Zhe's first love was taken away by someone else, and just imagining this possibility made Shen Lan feel heavy breathing and tightness in her chest. But think about it again, if his future is his own, then what is a momentary failure?

Xu Zhe suddenly asked, "Why don't you keep quiet?" ”

Shen Lan smiled and said, "No, I was thinking about things just now." ”

Xu Zhe: "What do you want?" ”

"I thought, in a year and a half, you'll be in high school. By then, I'll be pretty much self-taught, and the competition might be over. And then we make games together, how interesting, isn't it? ”

The girl's tone was still so light and light.
