The young and tender face from her memories gradually overlapped with the current young man before her.
Mei Shu smiled gently, “Thank you for remembering my preferences after all these years.”
Lu Yan blushed a bit, feeling a bit embarrassed by her focused gaze. He replied, “You don’t need to be so polite with me. Go ahead and eat. If there’s anything else you want to eat, just let me know, and I’ll buy it from the nearby snack stalls.”
When Zhou Li returned from the restroom, she saw Mei Shu sitting in her seat. Instead of getting angry, Zhou Li chose a seat closer to Lu Yan’s and casually picked up a bag of snacks. “Lu Yan, how did you know that I like this? I also brought the fruit juice you love.”
She handed him a small bottle of juice and said, “Here, this brand is almost unavailable now. 1 sent someone to search and finally found the last remaining factory in a small place. My home fridge still has a lot of it. If you like it, you can come to my place and have some!”
“Thank you.” Lu Yan took it from her with a cold expression.
Zhou Li looked at Mei Shu with satisfaction and said, “Sorry, I didn’t know you would join us for the meal, so I only brought one bottle of juice. I’ll bring some for you next time.”
“No need. 1 don’t like fruit juice.” Mei Shu said while taking out an English book from her bag to memorize vocabulary.
Zhou Li felt she was pretending to be studying hard, but she still pretended to admire her and said, “I didn’t expect you to be so dedicated to your studies. Even when you’re out playing, you still don’t forget to memorize vocabulary. You must have excellent academic performance, right?”
Mei Shu took a bite of the hot sausage and said, “There are many things you don’t expect. There’s no need to be so surprised.”
Zhou Li’s smile froze for a moment, “I was sincerely praising you, Mei Shu.”
“I’m stating the facts.”
As they talked, Mei Shu had already flipped a page.
Zhou Li smiled ambiguously and asked, “Mei Shu, you memorize vocabulary so fast. You just finished the entire page in less than five minutes, right?”
This woman is just too good at pretending!
She’s shamelessly putting on a show of being studious in front of Lu Yan!
She probably hasn’t even read a single word!
Otherwise, why did she flip the page so quickly?
Mei Shu nodded lightly. “I’m also quick at memorizing other things.”
Zhou Li was completely speechless.
She stole a glance at Lu Yan and her heart ached when she noticed the admiration in his eyes. She raised her voice and said, “Then why don’t you let me test you to see if you’ve really memorized the words solidly? After all, it’s hard for you to know the effect when you’re studying alone here, right?”
She just wanted to make Mei Shu look bad in front of Lu Yan!
Zhou Li didn’t believe Mei Shu’s memory could be that good. If she couldn’t memorize the words she tested later, she would be embarrassed!
Hearing this, Lu Yan also agreed, “Having someone quiz you while memorizing words is the most effective.”
Zhou Li was delighted and more confident about the idea. “See, even Lu Yan agrees. So what are you hesitating for? I’m just helping you check your progress!”
“Alright then.” Mei Shu handed her the book, “If you want to quiz me, go ahead.”
Zhou Li’s mouth almost stretched to her ears with excitement. She quickly flipped to the previous page and asked, “You just finished memorizing this page, right?”
“No.” Mei Shu denied it.
Zhou Li became displeased, “I clearly saw you finish it before turning the page. Are you lying to me and Lu Yan?”
Zhou Li was secretly delighted.
She knew Mei Shu would be exposed!
Mei Shu looked flustered even before the test began!
But she wouldn’t be kind enough to let Mei Shu look through the English book again. She wanted Lu Yan to see how hypocritical Mei Shu could be!
Mei Shu replied, “No, 1 mean, I already finished the next page as well.”
“Huh?” Zhou Li’s fantasy about humiliating Mei Shu in front of Lu Yan was suddenly interrupted, leaving her a little caught off guard.
“Are, are you saying that you finished memorizing all these words in less than two minutes?”
Is she kidding…
Zhou Li found it hard to believe.
Her English scores were already among the top, but even so, she wouldn’t dare boast that she could memorize two whole pages of words in such a short time.contemporary romance
Moreover, just two minutes. It’s unlikely for an ordinary person to finish reading even one full page, right?
Is Mei Shu serious?
Lu Yan smiled and said, “You’ve had an excellent memory since you were a child, and I didn’t expect you to be even better now.”
Zhou Li was itching with irritation.
Before Mei Shu could respond, Zhou Li couldn’t help but interrupt, “When 1 was in the capital, the top student in English at my school needed at least ten minutes to memorize so many words. You just took two minutes, and you even talked to me during that time. And you tell me you’ve already finished all of them?”
“If you don’t believe it, you can test me. Isn’t that what you want to do the most?” Mei Shu said nonchalantly.
Zhou Li bit her lips and shifted her gaze to the textbook. “Alright, let’s begin. If you can’t answer, then don’t brag anymore.”
“Deal.” Mei Shu agreed quickly.
