Although he was there to help with tutoring, Mo Hanyu learned about Qin Xiao's learning situation.

...It cannot be said that it was chaos, but it can also be considered the creation of the world.

"Why don't you know such basic things?!"

Mo Hanyu couldn't believe it.

Qin Xiao: ...

Qin Xiao silently looked away and tried to escape, but Mo Hanyu grabbed his cheek and pulled him over.

"...Let go." Qin Xiao felt pain and frowned slightly.

Mo Hanyu let go immediately.

Today was a day off, so Chen Mo went out to exercise early in the morning. Qin Xiao only slept in during the first few days after he arrived, but after he got used to it, he went out for morning exercises before dawn every day, regardless of whether he had classes or not, and never slacked off.

Today was the same, after the morning exercise, Qin Xiao brought food from the cafeteria to Mo Hanyu. While Mo Hanyu was washing up with sleepy eyes, he asked him if there was anything he didn't know about the subject...

The sun was already high in the sky, and according to the original plan, they should have mastered at least one subject, but reality was so cruel. The two stared at each other, both showing puzzled expressions.

Mo Hanyu didn't understand why Qin Xiao didn't know such a simple thing.

Qin Xiao didn't understand why Mo Hanyu could always explain these difficult and complicated things so easily.

"...I'm not saying anything, you can go ask Tian Miao, Qiu Puryue and others. They also think that this is not complicated at all." Mo Hanyu saw what Qin Xiao was thinking and couldn't help but point to the book.

Qin Xiao: ...

"...I've told you, this is the truth." After talking for half a morning but still without any progress, Mo Hanyu became a little impatient, "Why don't you understand?!"

"Tian Miao can learn it so easily, why can't you?"

Qin Xiao didn't say anything and remained silent.

Mo Hanyu, who was angry, did not notice his abnormality and continued to ask the reason.

"...I'll watch it alone." Qin Xiao was silent for a long time, then he spoke slowly and softly.

Mo Hanyu paused. Although he was annoyed, he still wanted to patiently say something.

"Don't bother you anymore, I'll go out and study."

Qin Xiao said this, holding a few books in one hand, and stood up to leave.

"Wait--" Mo Hanyu finally felt something was wrong and reached out to stop him, "Are you angry?"

"No, you're right." Qin Xiao looked calm, without a trace of anger, "I'm just too stupid."

"That was not what I meant--"

"I told you, I'm not angry." Qin Xiao said, looking away, his voice calm, "You also need to review, focus on yourself first."

After that, he walked out of the door.

Mo Hanyu wanted to say something but stopped himself. Looking at Qin Xiao's back, he felt as if something was blocking his throat. He scratched his head in annoyance.

"Boom boom boom——"

Yin Xi paused, somewhat surprised by the identity of the visitor.

"Qin Xiao? Looking for me?"

At this time, he was the only one in the dormitory practicing calligraphy at the table. After Qin Xiao pushed open the door, he did not choose to leave but went in, which probably showed his goal.

"...Hmm." Although Qin Xiao's eyes were fixed on him, Yin Xihui always felt that his attention was not on him. Instead, he seemed to be weighing something.

"Are you confident about this exam?" Qin Xiao asked him.

Yin Xihui was stunned: "Are you okay?"

"How many can you get?"

"It shouldn't be a problem to get 90 points in each subject." Yin Xihui replied with a smile.

A perfect score of one hundred.

... Qin Xiao said without any hesitation: "Please help me with my studies."

"Oh?" Yin Xihui raised his eyebrows in surprise, his eyes slowly fell on the book he was holding. He seemed to be thinking of something interesting in his mind and couldn't help laughing.

"Why did you suddenly think of this?"

"No... because I heard that there will be an exam soon." Qin Xiao slowly looked away, feeling a little uncomfortable.

In fact, he felt that Yin Xihui's temper was better than Mo Hanyu's, and he wouldn't give him a cold shoulder at every turn.

For some reason, Mo Hanyu's attitude towards him is getting worse and worse, and his patience is getting worse and worse.

Qin Xiao was a little depressed, but he didn't plan to ask anything.

Maybe it's puberty.

...or maybe I just find it annoying.

Qin Xiao lowered his eyes and frowned slightly.

"Sure." Yin Xihui agreed with a smile without asking any further questions.

Qin Xiao's brows relaxed, and at his signal, he put down the book, pulled a chair and sat next to him, opened the book, and asked about the part he didn't understand just now.

Yin Xihui put the pen and ink aside, looked at his blank book, his eyebrows twitched and his smile became a little stiff.

Qin Xiao didn't get a reply for a long time and couldn't help but look at him in confusion.

Yin Xihui said nothing, asked him to wait for a moment, then opened the window and jumped down from the building.

Qin Xiao:……?

There's no need to jump off the building if you don't want to teach, right?

Qin Xiao was a little confused.

Fortunately, Yin Xihui didn't let him wait too long. After a short while, he came back through the window and brought back his book.

"Qin Xiao, if there are some parts you don't understand or key points in class, you need to take notes." Yin Xihui opened his book.

Qin Xiao took a look at it and found it was not as complicated as he had imagined. It only highlighted key points in certain places and added a few sentences, but it was obvious that it was being used. It was completely different from his own brand new book.

Yin Xihui showed him a few more books. Among them, Le Xiu's book had the most annotations, which were so densely packed that they almost filled the entire paper.

"...I wrote it too." Qin Xiao felt a little guilty when he said this, after all, he had just added it with Mo Hanyu.

Yin Xihui naturally saw it, but he did not expose it. He just shook his head helplessly, did not continue the topic, and answered Qin Xiao's question.

Yin Xihui is different from Mo Hanyu. He does not teach in the order taught in the book, but from shallow to deep, connecting the knowledge learned into a line, and different knowledge points spread out different lines, connecting what he has learned, even some of what he has not yet learned.

But Qin Xiao still seemed to have some difficulty in understanding. After repeating it several times, Yin Xihui saw that he still didn't understand, so he didn't get angry. He just paused for a while and explained it to Qin Xiao in a different way.

Yin Xihui found that Qin Xiao was not good at understanding, but could quickly accept definitions. For example, for music scores, you don't need to tell him where the music scores come from or the meaning of each symbol. You only need to tell him what music scores are and how to identify symbols.

Once we found a method that suited Qin Xiao, everything became simple.

Qin Xiao also discovered that Yin Xihui was really patient. He didn't show any impatience at all during the whole process. At most, his "smile froze" or "paused without making any expression"... but he would soon smile again and explain to him seriously.

There were several times when Qin Xiao felt that he had asked a stupid question and was afraid that Yin Xihui would scold him, but he just froze for a moment and then gave an answer.

Qin Xiao's somewhat uneasy heart gradually calmed down as time passed. He didn't feel ashamed to ask questions to children younger than him, but he was worried that Yin Xihui would feel stupid and incompetent like Mo Hanyu.

Fortunately not.

...It may also be that he thought about it but didn't show it on his face.

Qin Xiao looked at Yin Xihui who was smiling, and thought.

Sitting in the empty dormitory, Mo Hanyu rubbed his hair irritably, waiting for the depression in his heart to subside, but a sense of uneasiness suddenly rose again.

He just... seemed to have said something too harsh.

Mo Hanyu recalled Qin Xiao's expression and his brows became even more furrowed.

What did he mean? Study on his own? Who was he going to find? We had agreed to review together yesterday, and he seemed quite happy. Why -

Mo Hanyu suddenly paused and knew the answer without thinking.

It's his attitude.

But Mo Hanyu pursed his lips again, and suddenly felt a little angry.

Then why didn't Qin Xiao tell him? Besides, it wasn't his problem in the first place. He was already very patient... and Qin Xiao didn't say it directly but kept it in his heart for him to guess. He wasn't a calculating person who knew what Qin Xiao was thinking all the time...

And I also have to take care of Qin Xiao's mood at that time...

Mo Hanyu's eyes were dark and he felt really depressed and uneasy.

Every time he takes the initiative, he gives in, he surrenders... Why?

Even when they went to town to buy clothes together before, Qin Xiao felt annoyed and left without saying a word, and almost got lost!

Mo Hanyu felt somewhat dissatisfied and resentful.

He hated Qin Xiao's stubborn character, and was annoyed by his changeable mood, and even more annoyed by his behavior of staying away from him at the slightest disagreement.

Mo Hanyu hugged his arms, sat cross-legged on the bed and sulked for a long time. He still had a stiff face until Qin Xiao came back.

Qin Xiao felt a little tired after studying for a whole day. His brain was weak from receiving information for a long time, and his body felt a little stiff and numb.

After returning to the dormitory, Qin Xiao saw Mo Hanyu sitting on the bed. He wanted to say something to him, but when he saw his expression, he chose to shut up and went to wash his face.

"...Qin Xiao."

Mo Hanyu called him.

"What's wrong?" Qin Xiao poked his head out.

"...Can you please not change your mood so suddenly? Sometimes I really don't understand." Mo Hanyu was suppressing something, his eyes were dark and deep, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Qin Xiao was stunned and silent for a moment: "You... think my emotions are too changeable?"

"Too outgoing." Mo Hanyu's voice was calm, and one could not tell whether he was happy or angry. "Every time you get upset, you turn your face away. Don't you think it makes me tired?"

"They say friendship is mutual, but you're always like this. Almost every time I have to compromise... Including today. Maybe I said something a little too much, but I was very emotional at the time, and you didn't give in to me. You just turned around and left, leaving me here alone. Do you think it's fair?"

Qin Xiao was really stunned, staring at him straight, and didn't even notice the water drops from the tip of his chin falling on his chest.

"...You think I'm troublesome?"

Qin Xiao's voice was a little hoarse for some reason.

"...Yes, a little." Mo Hanyu said, suddenly looking away, closing his eyes and pursing his lips.

But... didn't you want me to be more emotional at that time?

Qin Xiao stared at him blankly, but he already had the answer before he uttered the words.

After all, we had just met at that time and were only 6 years old...it's normal.

Qin Xiao closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and his eyes regained calm.

But if you look closely, you will find a delicate gleam of water under its eyes.

The child did not know the seriousness of the matter and said it casually. Now he realizes that he has caused too much trouble and feels uncomfortable, but he speaks out frankly. He should feel happy.

Qin Xiao lowered his eyes. For some reason, a chill suddenly surged through his heart, almost freezing half of his body. He felt numb and itchy, and his fingers almost lost their strength.

In this suffocating atmosphere. Mo Hanyu pulled the corner of his mouth, wanting to say something to ease the atmosphere: "Actually, it's just a little bit——"

"I see." Qin Xiao retracted his head and hid in the washroom, and his voice came out, "Sorry, I have caused you trouble."

Mo Hanyu knew that Qin Xiao had heard it, and he didn't seem angry. His brows couldn't help but relax and he said, "No need to be like this, it's just a little bit..."

Qin Xiao didn't reply, he patted his cheeks with water a few more times, wiped them dry and walked out, changed into pajamas and lay down on the bed: "I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep first."

"Oh...oh." Mo Hanyu seemed to have not reacted yet. He watched him lie down as if nothing had happened and closed his eyes.

Mo Hanyu didn't react until he heard even and steady breathing.

You didn't say anything?!

Mo Hanyu was somewhat surprised at Qin Xiao's attitude, which could even be considered docile.

I looked at the time and it was only 6pm, which surprised me even more.

"Why do you go to bed so early? Have you finished your review?" Mo Hanyu couldn't help but want to pull him up and pulled his arm up.

"...almost done." Qin Xiao gave him a tired look, then calmly pulled out his arm and continued to lie down. "Just sleep for a while, we have to go out again soon."

"Have you had lunch?" Mo Hanyu asked, looking at his listless appearance.

"……No."

"I don't have any either. Shall we go have a meal first?"

“…No.” Qin Xiao rolled up the quilt, almost rolling himself into a caterpillar, “I still have to go to school later, so I’ll take a rest now.”

"Who are you going to learn from? Not with me?" Mo Hanyu frowned, feeling something was wrong.

"Yeah." Qin Xiao closed his eyes and said weakly, "You and the others, review well."

"why--"

"I don't want to waste your time." Qin Xiao said calmly, still without opening his eyes, "Don't talk, let me sleep for a while."

Mo Hanyu obviously wanted to say something, but looking at Qin Xiao who fell asleep again, he pursed his lips and had to close his mouth.

In the evening, I found Shen Youge as promised and followed his instructions to exercise.

There was something indescribably awkward about what happened in the afternoon, but Mo Hanyu couldn't find the problem for a while, so he became a little absent-minded. Although he was soon convinced by Shen Youge's methods, he had to concentrate on facing every trial.

After finishing the practice, Mo Hanyu breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the clothes beside him, and said goodbye to Shen Youge.

"Why are you so worried today? What's wrong?"

Shen Youge still looked at him with those eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and said with a smile.

He had no intention of saying more to him, but Mo Hanyu had a hunch that he might be able to figure out what was wrong, so he told him what happened today.

After saying that, he touched his chin and lowered his head, pretending to think for a moment. Still unable to find the problem, he looked up at Shen Youge.

Unexpectedly, Shen Youge was staring at him with a complicated expression, his eyes full of indescribable feelings.

Mo Hanyu even saw a hint of contempt.

Mo Hanyu:?

Mo Hanyu frowned and opened his mouth to ask.

"……Are you crazy?"

Shen Youge spoke up earlier and looked at him in disbelief. It was the first time that Mo Hanyu saw him with such a complicated and intense expression.

"Is it because Xiao spoiled you so much that you can't even show empathy? You don't even use your brain when you speak, right?!"

Bai Ze simply couldn't imagine how Qin Xiao felt when he heard Mo Hanyu's question.
