He heard Ye Lin Yuan’s voice behind him, “You go to my study and wait for a moment. I’ll tidy up the things first, I will be there soon.”
“Oh, okay.”
Tong Sui glanced around.
Ye Lin Yuan’s apartment wasn’t very spacious; aside from their bedroom where they slept yesterday, there was a guest room and a study.
Tong Sui opened the door to the study.
The furnishings in the study were quite simple, featuring a desk, a full wall of bookshelves, and a glass display case.
The floor-to-ceiling window showcased the city’s night scenery.
Tong Sui walked up to the glass display case.
Inside were various trophies, medals, and certificates, dating from the most recent to his student days, outstanding achievements that left him astonished.
He couldn’t help but imagine Ye Lin Yuan standing on stage in a similar uniform, delivering an acceptance speech as a student.
When being admired by everyone in the audience, he must have maintained that calm expression.
Just then, the door was pushed open.
Ye Lin Yuan looked at Tong Sui, who was standing in front of the display case.
He had always viewed achievements and honors lightly, rarely stirred by them.
But when Tong Sui stood there, his delicate fingers gently gliding across the medals through the glass, Ye Lin Yuan felt the blood beneath his skin heat up.
Ye Lin Yuan stood still for a while, until Tong Sui turned around and saw him, his eyelashes fluttered slightly.
“Ah, you’re back.”
Ye Lin Yuan drew back his intense gaze, nodded, and sat down at the desk, saying, “Come sit here.”
“Oh, okay.”
Tong Sui sat closely next to him, the faint scent of body wash wafted over, making him smell pleasant.
This fragrance was not overpowering; on the contrary, it was very mild.
As Tong Sui lowered his head to pull the books out from his bag, a glimpse of his snowy white neck became visible.
Ye Lin Yuan couldn’t help but stare for a moment.
Compared to the scent in the air, he was more captivated by the pheromones emanating from Tong Sui.
“What subject should we review?”
Tong Sui turned to look at him, unexpectedly meeting his dark eyes; the brilliant city lights outside didn’t penetrate into the depths of his gaze, creating an eerie sense of incomprehensibility.
Quickly, Ye Lin Yuan averted his gaze.
A small screen appeared before them.
Ye Lin Yuan opened the transcript right in front of him.
The original owner was an absolute slacker.
The transcript displayed mostly single digits, uniformly poor that it made Tong Sui blush.
Ye Lin Yuan’s knuckles tapped on the table, producing a dull sound that felt like it was pounding on Tong Sui’s heart. “What do you think?”
Tong Sui replied, “They all need to be reviewed.”
“Mm.” Ye Lin Yuan restrained his expression, took his book, and opened it to reveal blank pages. “Let’s start from the basics.”
For Ye Lin Yuan, this knowledge was as simple as basic arithmetic, but his voice was soft, showing no impatience due to its simplicity, each step clearly explained.
Tong Sui pretended to understand.
The system had warned him countless times in his mind, [You must not significantly alter the original character setting! You are a study slacker!]
During the last class when he answered a question, the system had already warned him once.
Listening to Ye Lin Yuan’s voice, Tong Sui repeated what he had already learned, becoming somewhat distracted.
His gaze drifted to the reflection in the floor-to-ceiling window.
They were sitting very close; Tong Sui just had to slightly move his arm to brush against Ye Lin Yuan’s fingertips.
“Tong Sui.”
Tong Sui jumped slightly at the sound of his name, and then his chin was grasped, turning his head to confront those deep eyes.
Every time he saw such a gaze, the next moment was often followed by a deeply passionate kiss, but this time Ye Lin Yuan swallowed his throat and asked in a husky voice, “Where did I leave off?”
Tong Sui mumbled, “I wasn’t paying attention…”
“Focus on the class, don’t get distracted.”
Ye Lin Yuan replied heavily, and then continued lecturing.
This time, Tong Sui dared not be distracted again. Once the first section was finished, Ye Lin Yuan stopped to drink some water.
“Let’s stop here for today; it’s too much to digest all at once.”
He then pulled out a quiz.
“It contains today’s materials; do it to test the effectiveness.”
The questions on the quiz weren’t difficult.
Tong Sui had to slow down when writing, taking Ye Lin Yuan’s pen and working at a leisurely pace.
From time to time, he would fiddle with the fountain pen, sometimes jotting on scrap paper, before finally turning his attention back to Ye Lin Yuan beside him.
Ye Lin Yuan frowned, seemingly reading some documents?
Tong Sui peeked at the content on the screen, taken aback.
The title was “100 Dishes Every Omega Must Learn to Capture an Alpha’s Taste Buds.”
Tong Sui: “……?”
Noticing his gaze, Ye Lin Yuan looked over.
Tong Sui quickly lowered his head to continue answering questions.
After a while of procrastinating, he finally filled out the quiz.
Tong Sui tugged at Ye Lin Yuan’s sleeve, feeling a bit guilty, “I’m done.”
Due to the system’s interference, he had been forced to fill in many wrong answers.
Ye Lin Yuan looked down at his answers.
As he continued looking, his brows furrowed, and he looked up to meet Tong Sui’s innocent face, the words he was about to say were all swallowed back.
He almost forgot that for someone with only single-digit scores, writing like this was already an extraordinary improvement.
“You got quite a few wrong, but it’s okay; we’ll go through each question slowly.”
The system was about to cry.
Why was this happening?
Villain, where is your impatience? Where is your strictness with others?
Tong Sui huffed, “You wouldn’t understand!”
After correcting the mistakes, Tong Sui glanced at the time; it was already ten o’clock.
