Chapter 81
An Chenchuan’s room is predominantly brown . The hues remind her of the Milestone’s Hotel Presidential Suite .
For a boy, you have a neat room, An Chuxia says to herself . In her head, she pictures a boy’s room to be littered with smelly socks, a muddy basketball in the corner of the room, and clothes stacked messily on a bed .
But this is clean .
An Chuxia’s surprised expression amuses An Chenchuan . He scratches the back of his head and says, “My room is neat because I often have friends over . But, An Chuxia, have you ever been in a boy’s room?”
She pauses for a minute before rendering her answer . “I just thought… No, I have never been to a boy’s room . This is my first . ”
Her ordinary words made him blush, but fortunately, the room is relatively dim . An Chuxia did not notice . Otherwise, he might as well be dead .
Suddenly, An Chuxia remembers why they were in his room . She sits by his desk . “You just said you didn’t understand a question? Let me help you . ”
What they didn’t know, is that, someone is actually outside the door; a shadow pulled long by the old lamp . Yellow light falls on his angular face . No matter when, no matter where, he seems like he shines brightly .
An Chenchuan runs quickly to retrieve the papers out of the drawer . “I don’t remember how to solve this problem . It’s useless . The city exam won’t have the same problem, would it?” he asks about the chemistry problem .
She nods in acknowledgement and draws a chart .
“You see, this question is actually very simple . Don’t be anxious about how long the problem is . Just understand the relationship between the chemicals . Three sulfur oxygen… . ”
A few minutes later, An Chenchuan gets it . “An Chuxia, you’re really great in analyzing these problems . ”
She smiles in embarrassment . “You could, too, if you understand it . ”
She stops talking and awkward silence falls on them .
“An Chuxia . ” An Chenchuan’s eyes become serious . “The letter I gave you in school, did you read it?”
An Chenchuan… Han Qilu curses his name in his head . Surely, the letter he gave is a bold move! But it doesn’t matter now . He’s already An Chuxia’s brother .
He doesn’t know why he’s so bothered about this matter . Is it male pride and possessiveness?
His face stiffens . He wonders how she’ll answer An Chenchuan’s question . Would she end up telling him he tore the letter? Oh, I don’t care!
She is just about to respond when Chenchuan speaks up . “It doesn’t matter . I know you will not agree… . ”
She shoots Chenchuan a confused gaze . Suddenly, she’s puzzled . That envelope didn’t contain a challenge question?
“Actually… I’m sorry . I lost the letter . But what did you mean by it? What was in it?”
