Crab, did you know, Gu Mingxi was just watching us play.

Pang Qian’s scores dropped on the midterms for the second semester. She only scored well enough to be 37th in the class. When she returned home, she was naturally scolded by Pang Shuisheng. Fortunately, he didn’t beat her.

Pang Shuisheng smacked the table and asked Pang Qian, “Tell me! Why don’t you go to school with Gu Mingxi anymore? Why did you want to change your seat? After you spent two months doing homework with Gu Mingxi, your test scores weren’t bad! Why have they dropped again?! He never blamed you for being troublesome! You’re just too lazy! After being deskmates with him for so many years, why didn’t you ever learn to be hardworking like him? If you continue like this, you won’t even get into General High! At best, you’ll have to go to a vocational school, do you know?!”

Pang Qian stubbornly tilted her head and didn’t make a sound. Jin Ai’hua couldn’t listen on any further, and pulled Pang Qian to her. “Why are you yelling at her? Qian Qian’s growing up. She’s already this big. Why should she be stuck with Gu Mingxi all day long? Maybe her scores are bad because she’s always had to sit in the corner with him. The teacher would always be worried about Gu Mingxi, so when would they have time to care about Qian Qian.”

Pang Qian lowered her head and Jin Ai’hua knocked her on the head. She said, “But you’re disappointing too. You’re not stupid, so why are your scores so poor? If you’re still doing this poorly at the end of the semester, I’ll find you a tutor. We’re definitely not going to a vocational school. You have to get into at least General high, and then go to a good university.”

After being lectured, Pang Qian returned to her room. She bit on her pen and zoned out. She also didn’t understand how her scores had dropped so drastically. The first half of this semester, she had worked pretty hard. She completed the recitations and dictations that the teacher assigned for English. She never skipped her math homework. But there was one thing. After that talk with Teacher Cao, she wouldn’t ever go to the teacher’s office to ask for help, not even if you beat her to death. For the questions she didn’t understand, she could only just memorize them.

She couldn’t help but to think about Gu Mingxi. In the past, Gu Mingxi would explain it to her, calmly, detailed, until she understood it. He never complained that it was troublesome. Even when Pang Qian pestered him or made jokes, he would never get angry with her.

Now that Pang Qian wasn’t deskmates with Gu Mingxi, whenever she had trouble with math, she would ask Xie Yi. He would also explain it. But after he explained once and Pang Qian still didn’t understand, Qiu Lina, who sat next to him, put on a ridiculing expression. Pang Qian felt embarrassed, so she just thanked Xie Yi and turned back around. After that, she was always too embarrassed to ask Xie Yi again.

Gu Mingxi scored 1st in the whole grade on this exam again. Xie Yi only came in 4th, but he didn’t mind at all. He still ate when it was time to eat, played when it was time to play. He even called Pang Qian to play ping pong together once.

He asked, “Crab, can you play ping pong?”

Pang Qian could only play a little, so she shook her head, “Not really.”

“Let’s go. When we play, I’ll teach you.” Xie Yi called together a few other students, “Qiu Lina, Hu Tianli, Jiang Lei, let’s go!”

He was a ping pong expert. He had a coach when he was younger. He beat the whole grade and was known as invincible.
