“Yimo, I finally know why Teacher Li the Skinflint is going bald.” Teacher Li was the chemistry teacher at No. 1 High School. The students gave him that nickname because he was so strict.
“Why?” Yimo wasn’t the least bit concerned about whether Teacher Li was going bald. She was focused on Yihang’s signature.
“How could you get this question wrong?” Yihang shook his head helplessly.
“None of your business!” Yimo was pleased that Yihang had gotten so good at imitating her mother’s signature. She snatched up the test paper and stuffed it into her schoolbag.
“Honestly, it’s all your fault!” Even saying it wasn’t enough for Yimo. She reached out and pinched Yihang’s cheek. “I could forgive you for being handsome, but do you have to come first every single time? You’re exactly the kind of kid parents hold up as an example, and yet you have to be around me every day. Don’t you think that’s annoying?”
“You’re a classic case of using someone and then tossing them aside! The moment I finish signing, you turn your back on me. And who was it that refused to leave my house last week?”
“Wasn’t that because I failed physics? If I went home, my mom would beat me senseless!”
“And you still treat me like this!” Yihang took Yimo’s hand away and patted the top of her head.
“Hey, bro! With my grades, I could barely manage to go to the same middle school as you. The high school entrance exams are coming up soon. How could I possibly get into the same high school as you?” Yimo had been attached to Yihang since childhood, and now she regretted not working harder at school.
“You will. Starting tomorrow, you’re not allowed to go out and play. I’ll tutor you.” Kyoto No. 1 High School had very strict admission requirements. Yimo had some special talents, but with her current grades, getting in would still be difficult. He couldn’t let the little tagalong who’d followed him since childhood get left behind.
