As a highly intelligent student with extremely rigorous thinking and logic, Lin Jianlu still had a good way of organizing things.
He first put all Yan Han’s books into categories. The textbooks were placed with textbooks and the exercise books were placed with exercise books. Then he put them aside neatly and began to sort out his papers.
As a school with a high admission rate and high academic pressure, Luze High School had been distributing various papers to students every day since the first year of high school. The printing fee cost the school several hundred yuan every month, which showed how stressful academic performance was for students.
But these papers were more valuable than the ordinary exercise books sold on the market. Yan Han attached great importance to them. Because there were too many to do, he simply didn’t organize them and stacked them one after another on the table. He could then do it one by one and just find the one he needed, which was quite convenient.
However, if the papers he had talked about before were not sorted out for a long time, they would only pile up. Lin Jianlu picked out all the papers with red pen marks on them, divided them into six categories according to the subject categories, and also clamped all the unused papers in two large folders which he had also given as gifts to Yan Han.
Yan Han was watching from the side while he was doing this. It had to be said that when he saw Lin Jianlu turning over the test paper under him and seeing red marks of corrections all over the paper, he still felt very sad and wanted to avoid letting him see so much red.
Two weeks ago, his level was not at this level, and his error rate on the questions was extremely high.
The teacher would not personally grade the papers for the students but would only start talking about the topics after checking the completion of the homework, so only Yan Han knew what his level was before this.
Now… what made people more relaxed was that except for Lin Jianlu’s slightly raised eyebrows at the beginning, he did not put forward any relevant opinions on his error rate.
The workload was indeed a bit heavy, and obviously it could not be completed in one break.
When the class bell rang, Yan Han and Lin Jianlu temporarily changed their seats, but he didn’t dare to move things around because Lin Jianlu said that he would continue to tidy them up at noon.
Yan Han felt very embarrassed. Then he asked Lin Jianlu in a low voice: “Would it be difficult for you to sit with me?”
After all, he had mysophobia. Although he didn’t know what the specific taboos of mysophobia were, apparently one of them was seeing your deskmate’s desk was too messy.
Yan Han said: “If you can’t stand it, you can tell the teacher, don’t worry about me…”
“No.” Lin Jianlu interrupted him, “It’s not because it’s too messy and I can’t stand it, it’s because a clean desktop helps improve your enthusiasm for learning, and good tidying habits will also make your efficiency increase, giving you twice the result with half the effort.”
“That’s true.” Yan Han scratched his head. When he was a barber, he was also used to tidying up his workbench. This made the work easier.
But his sorting ability was obviously limited to the workbench. He really didn’t have the energy to sort out these papers every day. What’s more, he was already used to this method. After finishing sorting, he would probably be looking for something for a while. It was troublesome to think about the stage where he couldn’t even find it.
“It doesn’t matter.” Lin Jianlu said, “Just tell me what you are looking for and I will help you find it.”
Yan Han: “…”
Since he had said so, he could have no other ideas.
Anyway, he couldn’t actually notice these when he was studying, so he could do whatever he wanted.
Just as the two of them finished whispering, the head teacher walked into the class again holding a textbook.
That’s right, this period was the real English class today. Previously, she and another teacher temporarily switched the second period, but she didn’t know when the exchanged class would come back.
As soon as the class teacher came in, he asked: “That classmate Yan Han, is it okay for you to sit in the last row?”
“Ah, it’s good.” Yan Han said.
“Then Lin Jianlu, are you okay sitting there?”
“Well, it’s fine if I sit here.” Lin Jianlu said.
“Then you two study hard. I was watching outside just now. It’s already class. Why are you two still talking?” She said this with a smile, and her tone sounded like a joke, but there was something obvious behind her words.
Yan Han: “…”
Okay, it’s their fault for talking in class.
“You are all good children with good grades. You should study hard. There is no need for the teacher to talk about this kind of thing…” After the class teacher finished speaking, she didn’t say anything else this time, but just took out the textbook and started teaching.
Yan Han turned to look at Lin Jianlu. The two looked at each other, then quickly moved their eyes away and began to do their own things.
Yan Han continued to memorize the text. He memorized it very seriously and focusedly, completely blocking out the voices next to him. When he was almost able to memorize the text, he suddenly heard that this time it was his deskmate Lin Jianlu whose name was called.
“Lin Jianlu!”
“Yes.” Lin Jianlu slowly raised his head.
The head teacher walked off the podium again and approached their table. As she walked, she said, “What are you doing down there? Put your hands under the table. How can you take notes?”
As soon as she mentioned the hands, Wen Juerong quickly stuffed the Rubik’s Cube into the desk compartment and his hands were placed on the table.
As for Yan Han, he learned well this time. He memorized it with the small reduced-print textbook that he finally found and bought. In the normal large textbook, he had turned to the lesson being taught by the teacher today. As for the small textbook, even if you see it, it will only be regarded as a small dictionary and will not be objected to.
So at this moment, Lin Jianlu’s left and right sides gave him a wish-for-blessing look, and their eyes were full of pity.
The head teacher had already walked to their table at this time. Seeing that the only book open on Lin Jianlu’s desk was indeed clean, without a word in it, she couldn’t help but frown: “A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. The teacher knows that you are good at liberal arts, but I don’t care how you studied in class before. When you come to my class, you have to follow the teacher’s method. The teacher is not harming you. What can it harm you if you take some notes?”
As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Yan Han’s book and said, “Look at your deskmate, how many notes he took and how much he previewed in advance. I have taught so many students, and the ones who have the deepest insights are the smart ones. But smart students cannot compare to diligent students. Look at Yan Han, although she came from Class 17, she has proven that even if she is from Class 17, she has the ability to pass into Class 14…”
Yan Han:… He looked at his textbook speechlessly. He took really many notes, so many that the teacher didn’t realize that what he took down had nothing to do with the grammar she taught.
He was suddenly a little unhappy. He was not happy that the other party kept looking down on Class 17, and he felt that Lin Jianlu was a bit pitiful. He didn’t want her to compare him to Lin Jianlu.
