After bringing Lin Jianlu back to his room, Yan Han patted his chest, breathed a sigh of relief and asked him: “Big Brother Lin, why did you come here so early? Don’t you want to sleep in during the holidays?”
“Well, I always get up very early in the morning.” Lin Jianlu said.
“Oh, then you sit down first, I’ll go get a stool.”
Yan Han had just finished speaking when he turned around and saw that his grandfather had already moved a stool into the house.
At the same time, his grandma brought in a plate of washed fruits so that they could eat while studying.
“Thank you, Grandpa. Thank you, Grandma.” Having been taken care of in every possible way these two days, the eldest brother had been completely immersed in the warmth of home. He was moved to tears every day, and this was his motivation to persist in working hard on the questions.
He wanted to get the 30,000 yuan from the academic competition and give it to his grandmother to make the old lady happy again.
“Grandpa and grandma, stop busying yourself and go take a rest.” Yan Han said, then he pulled over a stool and sat on it casually with his legs apart.
[Ahem.] Xiao Wu’s baby voice immediately rang in my mind.
Yan Han: “…”
I’m sorry, he had been a little too relaxed recently because he was not in school and not wearing school uniform, and he forgot to pay attention to his image in front of Big Brother Lin.
So Yan Han quickly adjusted his sitting posture and sat down next to Lin Jianlu properly. He saw his elder brother Lin use two slender fingers to open the zipper of the schoolbag he carried, take out the papers and exercises one by one, and place them on the table.
……???
“Big Brother Lin?” Yan Han asked with eyes wide open…not sure what was going on. “Aren’t you here to explain the questions to me?”
“Yes, I am going to explain the questions. You should review first. If you don’t understand something, come and ask me. I’ll finish my homework first.” Lin Jianlu said calmly.
Yan Han: “…”
No, he thought Lin Jianlu came here so early in the morning because he had other things to do later and might not have time all day.
With the efficiency and speed with which Lin Jianlu explained the questions to him, the questions that he didn’t know how to answer yesterday could be finished in less than an hour, and then Brother Lin could leave.
That was what the eldest brother thought, so when Lin Jianlu arrived, he was ready to ask questions as soon as possible.
But how come…after all this time, Lin Jianlu really came to do homework with him?!
“You said I came to you to do my homework.” Lin Jianlu looked innocent about this. He opened his exercise book and said, “I have to pretend to be more convincing.”
“…”
Looking at Lin Jianlu eagerly, Yan Han asked, “Brother Lin, do you have anything else to do today?”
Lin Jianlu withdrew his gaze from the exercise book, turned his head and looked at him, as if asking him why he asked that.
“I’m afraid that it will take up too much of your time and disturb you.”
“No, and I’m not very busy.”
“Well, but I feel bad that you have to force yourself to do your homework just to explain the questions to me.”
“It doesn’t matter. These are homework assignments that have to be done anyway, and the teacher will check them when you go back home after the holidays.”
“…”
Okay.
So the two of them continued to discuss the topic like they did when they were in school, one asking a question and the other explaining the topic.
But before that, Yan Han solemnly introduced his live broadcast equipment to Lin Jianlu.
There were no outsiders at home, and his grandparents didn’t understand anything, so he never made the equipment invisible and just placed it on the table.
Lin Jianlu knew his background well, so there was no need for him to hide anything.
Now Yan Han felt it was in the way and wanted to put the things away. Lin Jianlu said, “Just leave it there.”
“Huh?”
“Don’t you do live broadcasts every day?”
“Yeah.” Yan Han glanced at Lin Jianlu, “But if I do, I’m afraid you’ll be photographed in the picture…”
“It doesn’t matter, you can just focus on yourself. I’ve seen your live broadcast. From that angle, even if it’s photographed, it will be just my hands.”
“…”
What he said seemed to make sense.
So Yan Han asked Xiao Wu to adjust the angle of the equipment and try to only take pictures of his own hands.
After all, it was a live broadcast device that came out of a treasure chest. Unlike ordinary equipment, this machine could take pictures wherever you wanted and the zoom could be adjusted anytime and anywhere. It was very smart, so the overall impact was not significant.
Later, Yan Han continued to review yesterday’s part, while Lin Jianlu borrowed a pen from him and started doing his homework.
However, Yan Han’s desk was too small, and two people couldn’t even fully unfold and put down their books when they sat together.
Moreover, the chair under his butt was uncomfortable after sitting for a long time, so Lin Jianlu suggested: “I know there is a library here, do you want to study there?”
“Huh?” Yan Han stared, a little dumbfounded, how come he didn’t know there was a library here, but Lin Jianlu knew?!
“I looked at the entire map of this county before coming to see you,” said Lin Jianlu.
“…”
Meeting Big Brother Lin’s matter-of-fact gaze…Okay, he remembered that Big Brother Lin could remember all the streets and buildings like a satellite just by looking at the map.
…Really, it’s been so long, why haven’t I gotten used to Lin Jianlu’s extremely high IQ yet?
It’s so ignorant to make a fuss about every little thing!
Originally, Yan Han felt it was inconvenient with the two elders at home, so after Lin Jianlu said that, he simply started to pack his things, took everything he needed, and put them all in his big cloth bag. Yan Han then threw the cloth bag over his shoulder and left the room one after another with Lin Jianlu.
He explained the situation to his grandparents and they asked him whether he would be back for lunch.
Thinking that he probably wouldn’t be able to come back, Yan Han simply said that he would not go back. He and Lin Jianlu would have lunch outside and asked the two elders to have something good to eat at noon and not to deal with it.
“Okay, go and play. It’s not good for you to stay at home all day.” Grandpa waved his hand and said.
Yan Han: “…”
Grandma also said: “Our child is introverted. He doesn’t like to go out and see people. He just stays in the room all day and studies. Fortunately, you, Xiao Lin, are here…”
“Grandma…”
Yan Han was helpless with their image of this introverted child who didn’t like to go out and see people.
“Okay, okay, I won’t say any more. Let’s go and play.” Grandma said with a smile.
“…”
Finally they left the house, the two of them walked out of the alley carrying their schoolbags, and Yan Han followed Lin Jianlu.
The small county town was not big, and the library was only a few stops away from his home. The two finally decided to walk there, which could also provide some exercise.
In fact, what his grandparents said was true. During this period, Yan Han was busy doing exercises and hardly moved except for physical education classes. If he continued like this, even the best physical foundation would be ruined by him. He should take time to exercise regularly.
After all, the road ahead was long and arduous, and the path of learning was long and endless. After this period of time was over, he still had to work hard on “physical” and “labor” and think of a way to get all the treasure chests first.
Yan Han was planning for the future as he walked, and he didn’t realize that the two of them walking side by side on the street were like a beautiful landscape, attracting people passing by them to linger.
The population of the small county town was small, and there were even fewer people with the same appearance as them.
Not to mention that people here had a limited standard of living and everyone’s dress was generally casual, so when two young people with first-class looks and figures, dressed simply but elegantly, walked on the street, they naturally attracted a lot of attention.
What’s more, the library was located near the only commercial street in the small county town.
During the May Day holiday, the streets, which were originally deserted, became crowded. Many businesses promoted different activities to boost sales, and the usually quiet town became lively.
They walked through most of the commercial street, braving the gazes of other people, and arrived at the library located nearby. The library was a county-level library with a study room on the second floor where one could study at will. However, it had been in disrepair for many years, and the tables and chairs were all very old and worn out, even more broken than the ones in Yan Han’s home.
But the good thing was that there were still a lot of seats, and there were still empty seats at this time. Yan Han and Lin Jianlu quickly found two seats next to each other, sat down, and then took out their books to study or do homework.
Of course, in order to spend more time and gain more popularity, Yan Han did not forget to continue the live broadcast.
However, he made the device invisible this time because he didn’t want to be too shocking. And he guessed it wouldn’t be such a coincidence that he would meet his fans outside.
At this time, the study party who watched his live broadcast and studied with him were basically in place, so the fans only saw the host’s hand appear in front of the camera again, but this time the content of the live broadcast was a little different from the previous ones –
When the host was doing the questions, he would occasionally take the bound question bank away from the camera. Judging from the direction, he should have taken it to the right. Every time the booklet was taken away, the pair of hands with slender knuckles would disappear for a short while. After a while, they would reappear in front of the camera, and new knowledge points or problem-solving processes would be marked on the booklet…
So it was obvious that there was someone sitting next to the host! He was having problems!
After the first fan who thought of this posted a barrage, someone soon expressed his agreement, and then more people posted barrages, and they were curious about the person next to the anchor, asking the anchor if they could give them a shot.
“It feels like the host has changed the live broadcast location today. The table is different, so is he studying somewhere else?”
“Maybe they are friends or classmates. What’s the big deal?”
“That’s true, but I’m still so envious of the three-dimensional friends the host has met! Ahhh, I also want to sit next to the young lady, just to get some of her fairy spirit!”
“Want to get some fairy spirit +1.”
The screen was flooded with comments, but Yan Han, who never paid attention to these things during his study time, didn’t know what had happened. He even forgot about it because the filming equipment was invisible. He was completely immersed in doing the questions. Anyway, the debugged live broadcast equipment would not have any temporary problems.
So naturally the audience was not satisfied. The only things in the camera were the hands of their meticulous host. At most, they could occasionally catch a glimpse of the host’s pointed chin, and nothing else.
The topic about the first time someone sat next to the anchor was slowly brought to a halt. After the topic passed, the amount of barrage in the live broadcast room gradually decreased. After all, as some netizens said, who didn’t have friends and classmates? Wasn’t it normal for someone to learn with the anchor?
Yan Han’s fans had long become very Buddhist and no longer expected their live broadcasts to suddenly reveal any extra information to them.
Until – suddenly another hand appeared in the camera, quickly took away a pen that the host had placed on the table and then disappeared at an even faster speed.
….
Time seemed to freeze at a certain moment. Some viewers who happened to see this part were stunned for a moment, and then the live broadcast room became lively again! ——
“F**k, another pair of beautiful hands!”
“The fingers are so long, they seem to be longer than the host’s. Oh no, I recalled the fear and torture I felt when I first guessed the host’s gender…”
“Wait, I deliberately rewound it and took a look. The watch on this wrist… is it Breguet?!”
“Breguet?”
“A high school student wearing one of the world’s top ten famous watches, he is crazy, it must be fake.”
“What if he is the host’s father.”
….
The barrage in the live broadcast room suddenly developed in a strange direction unconsciously. Yan Han didn’t know that he already had a rich “father” in the hearts of netizens. In fact, he had never noticed Lin Jianlu’s watch.
The main reason was that Big Brother Lin often changed his watch when he was in school. Yan Han would occasionally pay attention to it, but later he stopped paying attention to it.
——What’s the big deal?
Anyway, it’s not the first day he knew that Big Brother Lin was rich.
The author has something to say:
Yan Han: Why are your fingers longer than mine?!
Lin Jianlu: For your future sexual happiness:)
