Chapter 56: Choose One

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The school anniversary started at two in the afternoon, and many alumni had already returned to the school one after another. While the third-year students were occupied with the event, the first and second-year students had the afternoon off.

Many students who excelled in their studies volunteered to entertain the alumni. Among them were several distinguished figures from the political and business world, who were eager to interact with their fellow alumni. The student volunteers saw this as an opportunity to network with these successful individuals, hoping to establish connections they could brag about in the future.

The area outside the classroom building was abuzz with lively conversations as students, teachers, and visitors mingled together. The school had organized a variety of exhibitions and events with the theme “Reminiscing the Past” on both sides of the road, hoping to make the afternoon enjoyable for the visiting alumni.

Only a dozen or so students stayed in the classroom to study. The rest of the students, who were not volunteers, went down to participate in the festivities and had the chance to bump into some notable alumni.

Wen Nian remained undeterred and stayed seated in the classroom, focused on her practice questions. In the past, she would have eagerly sought the attention of political entrepreneurs like the ones present at the school anniversary. However, she had learned a hard lesson from her previous experiences and knew better than to jump at every opportunity that came her way.

Shen Jun glanced at Wen Nian and noticed that she was sitting like a diligent student, without any trace of impulsiveness. This piqued his curiosity even more.

Despite coming from an ordinary working-class family, Wen Nian had the poise and self-assurance of a child from an aristocratic family.

The difference was that Wen Nian had matured through her experiences, despite being only 17 years old. Only those who were familiar with her could see occasional glimpses of her youthful spirit.

Wen Nian gave her exercise book to Shen Jun and excitedly said, “I finished today’s chapter practice questions! When I checked the answers, 1 noticed that I had made only a few mistakes earlier. You explaining the concepts first and then tackling the questions really works!”

Shen Jun curled his lips slightly and said jokingly, “Well, of course. After all, it took up so much of my break time!”

This approach definitely turned Shen Jun into a teacher, and he taught Wen Nian the textbook material from beginning to end. Luckily, Wen Nian was not stupid and Shen Jun was a good teacher.

During class, the teacher had to slow down to cater to the needs of most students. However, in the one-on-one setting, Shen Jun could adjust the pace and rhythm according to Wen Nian’s understanding and guide her in the most effective way.

The amount of content that Shen Jun was able to teach in an hour was equivalent to what a teacher would teach in a week. It was a highly efficient and intense way of learning, but Wen Nian was able to handle it. However, she didn’t dare to not handle this workload.

Wen Nian knew that even if she didn’t understand something, Shen Jun would patiently teach her again. However, if she were to slack off, she was sure that Shen Jun would lose interest in teaching her. After all, attitude was everything.

Wen Nian smiled when she heard this. She noticed the empty glass on Shen Jun’s desk, so she took it to the water dispenser near the podium to fill it with water. Then, she handed it to him obediently and said, “You’ve worked hard all afternoon.”

Shen Jun accepted the glass with a smile and took a sip. “It’s already December now. At this rate, you’ll definitely finish learning the materials taught during the first year of high school by January. The winter break for this semester is probably at the end of January next year, and school starts in mid-February. You previously mentioned that you planned to master the materials taught during the second year of high school before the winter break. However, I won’t be able to help you catch up during the break. How do you plan to ensure that you can learn everything completely? If your studies don’t yield results, it will affect th tutoring progress during the third year of high school.”

Since Wen Nian had Wen Yu during the winter brcak.she was able to respond without a worry. “Don’t worry, someone will tutor me during the winter break. I have someone who can be on call for 24 hours a day! It definitely won’t delay the tutoring progress next semester.”

Shen Jun stopped drinking water and glanced at Wen Nian. “On call for 24 hours a day? If there’s such a person, why are you asking me to tutor you?”

Shen Jun’s tone sounded a little cold.

Wen Nian had a feeling that Shen Jun might be angry.

Wen Nian wondered if Shen Jun was upset because he felt like he was only being used as a backup option for her tutoring, even though it was the truth. She couldn’t let him know that though.

Wen Nian felt that she had hit the nail on the head. She tried to act casual and said, “Well, how can he compare to the effectiveness of your teaching? But I have no other choice. It’s better than studying alone. I don’t want to bother you during the New Year, so I can only choose him.”

When Shen Jun heard this, he felt his chest tighten even more.

He was aware that Wen Nian was weighing the options between him and her boyfriend, but he decided to keep quiet and instead took a big sip of water from the glass..
