As the senior year of high school approached, all the students in the class began to gear up for review. Su Rou was no exception. Whenever she had time, she would find practice problems to solve. Seeing her so diligent, Xiao Yun couldn't help but lean over curiously. "I didn't see you work this hard for the high school entrance exam."
Yu Fei patted Xiao Yun on the shoulder. "You dummy, how can the high school entrance exam be compared to the college entrance exam?"
"Yeah." Su Rou nodded. "Where are you guys planning to apply?"
"What about you?" Xiao Yun and Yu Fei had always followed Su Rou. Wherever she went, they guessed they would be sent by "Boss Su" too.
Su Rou thought for a while. "Actually, University T is a good choice."
"Then we'll work hard too." University T was also a prestigious school. Its teaching staff was no worse than that of foreign universities. Judging from Su Rou's grades, it shouldn't be a big problem for her to get in.
Su Rou's eyes lit up. "Great! I don't want to be separated from you guys either." It would be really lucky if her two best friends could be in the same school with her.
"However, Rou Rou, do you have something on your mind recently? Can't you tell us?" Yu Fei sat beside Su Rou and asked gently. When dealing with a girl like Su Rou, one had to wear her down with kindness. "Yun Yun and I are really worried. You're always in a daze, and sometimes you work on problems like crazy. What's going on with you?"
Su Rou bit her lip, looking a bit embarrassed and awkward. It was really hard for her to talk about this. Who... would have feelings for their own brother? Even though Su Yuze doted on her, it was impossible for her to develop such strange feelings, right?
"You do have something on your mind, don't you!" Yu Fei said firmly.
Su Rou nodded. "But I can't put it into words." Because she felt so ashamed! Maybe... it was just an excessive secretion of hormones during puberty. Maybe this feeling would fade away after a while. "Forget it. I'm fine."
Yu Fei and Xiao Yun glanced at each other. The more she was like this, the more worried they became. Did she really have something on her mind? It seemed she had made up her mind not to tell them this time. "Fei Fei, this girl won't give in no matter what." Xiao Yun whispered to Yu Fei.
"Keep trying to get it out of her!"
"Got it!"
...
Su Yuze came to pick up Su Rou. As usual, Su Rou sat in the car in silence, looking out of the window at the rapidly receding scenery. From time to time, she would take out her phone to play the bird game. After a while, she probably felt carsick, so she opened the window to get some fresh air and then stared out of the window in a daze for a while.
"Xiao Rou'er, we're here." When the car reached the Su family's villa, Su Rou was still in a daze. Didn't she even notice they were home?
"Okay..." Su Rou replied and then got out of the car as if nothing had happened.
Su Yuze watched her back silently, locked the car, and followed her into the house. Su Rou had been in a daze recently, but she had become much more obedient. She no longer asked for this or that to eat when she got home. She just ate whatever was served. Su Yuze felt a bit helpless. How long was she going to be like this?
After dinner, Su Rou went back to her room, saying she was going to review. Without waiting for Su Yuze to say anything, she ran upstairs.
Again! She was studying too hard!
After sitting downstairs for a while, Su Yuze couldn't hold back anymore and went upstairs. He turned the doorknob of Su Rou's room. Su Rou was sitting in front of her small desk, seriously solving a problem. This time, she wasn't in a daze. Hearing the sound of Su Yuze opening the door, she said, "Ze-gege?"
"Yeah."
"What's up? Do you need something?" Su Rou asked without turning her head.
Su Yuze walked over and saw that she was working on a physics problem. Probably because the problem was a bit difficult, she bit the end of her pen and thought for a long time. She only made some tentative calculations on the scratch paper.
"Do you need my help?" Su Yuze stared at the back of her head and asked.
Normally, whenever Su Rou had a problem she couldn't solve, she would not hesitate to ask him for help. But recently, such opportunities had become extremely rare. Rare? No, since this week, Su Rou hadn't asked him a single question!
Su Rou looked at the problem with a hesitant look. She hadn't been able to solve this problem at school. Jiang Ling didn't know how to solve it either. There was no physics class this afternoon, so she couldn't even find the teacher. But if she asked Su Yuze to solve the problem for her... Su Rou couldn't help but think of the sexy and wild Ze-gege that night!
"Xiao Rou'er?" Su Yuze called her. "Why are you in a daze again?"
Su Rou blinked her big eyes several times. "Okay." Her eyes involuntarily glanced at him. Good, he was dressed! "Sure. I've never been able to solve this problem."
Su Yuze smiled slightly and then picked up the workbook to look at the problem. Finally, Xiao Rou'er didn't ignore him! "The thinking for solving this problem is actually very simple. You're just overthinking it..." As he said, Su Yuze picked up a pen and started calculating on the scratch paper. He explained each step in great detail. He was even more professional than her physics teacher!
Su Rou listened quietly, but soon, her mind started to wander. Su Yuze was so close to her that she could even feel his breath. As she listened, she felt her heart beating irregularly. It was pounding so loudly. Ze-gege wouldn't hear it, would he?
"Ze-gege!" Su Rou suddenly called him.
"Hmm?" Su Yuze was holding the pen and looked at her in confusion. "What's wrong?"
Su Rou lowered her head and looked at the scratch paper. Her long hair fell and covered her face. She snatched the pen from Su Yuze's hand. "I... I already know how to do it."
"..." Su Yuze hadn't even reacted yet when the pen was taken away from his hand. Moreover, she even reached out a small hand to push him. "Are you sure? I've only explained half of it." The problem hadn't been completely solved yet, and she already understood? But even if she understood, there was no need to react so strongly, right?
Su Rou pushed him away. "Yes, yes. I already understand. You don't need to say anymore."
Su Yuze was pushed away by Su Rou and stood up somewhat bewildered. "Then, do you have any other problems you can't solve?" It seemed a bit reluctant to just leave like this. He still really wanted to spend more time with Xiao Rou'er.
"No, no." Su Rou buried her head in doing the problems. "Ze-gege, go and do your own thing. I won't bother you."
"..." What could he do!
After Su Yuze walked out of the room, Su Rou frowned in annoyance. Looking at the strong and powerful handwriting on the scratch paper, she actually didn't understand at all. Her heart had been pounding non-stop, making her have no mood to listen to the explanation. Damn it! Su Rou angrily poked the workbook. What was wrong with her!
Sigh...
"I'll ask the teacher tomorrow." Su Rou pouted. She was in a really bad mood.
