âXiao Rou, let me tell you. The physics question I saw last night was fascinating. I was about to solve it but realized there was a hidden conditionâ¦.â Li Li was talking to Tan Rou about the physics questions when a person suddenly appeared at the stairs and startled her.
âLiang⦠Liang Lu!â Li Li pointed at Liang Lu. âYouâ¦What are you doing here?â
Liang Lu glanced at Li Li, then took out the test paper that was folded to the size of an eraser from the pocket of her school uniform. âYou said that you would be my friend if I got 60 marks.â
Tan Rou took the test paper and looked at it. The test paper was folded very small and looked old. It could be seen that the person who wrote the test paper must have taken it out often.
The score on the test paper was 61 points, just above average.
âNot bad. Youâve improved so much in such a short period of time,â Tan Rou encouraged. âIt shows that youâre brilliant. Youâre just not willing to work hard.â
Liang Lu put her hands in her pockets and said, âWell, I did get myself into this school with my academic results.â
âBut you wasted more than two years.â Tan Rou took the test paperback. âIf you want to recover your original results, you must put in more effort.â
Liang Lu frowned. âIâve already done it. Shouldnât you be my friend?ââ
Tan Rou smiled, teasing her, âThose who donât know better would think youâre courting someone.â
Liang Lu blushed. âAre you trying to renege on your promise?â
âHow is that possible?â Tan Rou extended her right hand. âHello, my friend Liang Lu.â
Liang Lu slowly extended her right hand and shook it. âHello, Tan Rou.â
âI am delighted with your results.â Tan Rou said, âBut just one subject isnât enough. If we want to continue being friends, you must continue working hard next time.â
Liang Lu didnât want to waste her time anymore. Otherwise, she would have to drop out of school and go home to find a job when everyone else went to university in a year.
âThen, can I come to you for help if thereâs anything that I donât know?â Liang Lu asked shyly.
âOf course, you can.â Tan Rou pushed Li Li out. âThis is my deskmate, Li Li. Her grades are also excellent. If Iâm not around, you can ask her.â
Liang Lu did not object. She reached out her hand. âIâm Liang Lu. Letâs be friends.â
Li Li was still in a daze. They were still making a scene in the classroom a few months ago. A few months later, they actually wanted to shake hands and be friends. She couldnât believe her eyes!
âWhy? Are you unwilling?â Liang Lu asked when she saw Li Li in a daze.
âAh, no, no, noâ¦â Li Li shook her head repeatedly and held Liang Luâs hands with both hands. âTd love to! Iâm Li Li. Nice to meet you.â
She also amused Liang Lu. âLi Li, right? If anyone bullies you in the future, say my name.â
Li Li felt that Liang Lu was quite interesting, so she said, âAlright then! Iâll have someone to protect me from now on.â She pulled Liang Lu with one hand and Tan Rou with the other, saying, âIâm so blessed!â With Rourou helping me with my studies and Liang Lu protecting me in school, I can do whatever I want!â
The three girls laughed.
Coincidentally, Tan Jing came downstairs and stared at Tan Rou angrily. Liang Lu actually knew Tan Jing better. Due to how Tan Jing and Lu Qing had been rumored, Liang Lu had always treated Tan Jing as a love rival. Later, when she discovered no such thing, she let it go.
âDo you want me to teach her a lesson?â Liang Lu had also heard about the grudges between Tan Jing and Tan Rou. Now that she was Tan Rouâs good friend, she naturally had to help Tan Rou.
âNo need.â Tan Rou thanked her for her kindness. âShe canât cause much trouble in school now, nor can she hurt me. Donât provoke her because of me, lest she takes the opportunity to report you to the principal.â
Liang Lu listened to Tan Rou. âAlright. Since you donât want anything from her, Iâll leave her alone.â
She was terrified when Tan Jing heard that Liang Lu would teach her a lesson forTan Rou. She was a true gangster. As long as someone made her unhappy, Liang Lu would hit them.
Liang Lu glanced at her and warned, âTan Rou is my good friend now. Youâd better not do anything bad behind her back. If I find out, Iâll ensure you canât leave the wheelchair for the rest of your life.â
Tan Rou urged, âLetâs go, Liang Lu. Letâs go up and take a look at your physics paper. You still have a lot of room for improvement.â
Liang Lu put her hands in her pockets and followed Tan Rou and the others upstairs.
Tan Jingâs heart was beating very fast. On the one hand, she was afraid that Liang Lu would teach her a lesson; on the other hand, she was angry at Tan Rou. How did Tan Rou get so many friends so easily? Even the school bully, Liang Lu had been subdued by her. On the other hand, there was no one around her now. She even has a problem trying to go up the stairs..
