Chapter 026

“…Sis.” Yu Shu said, “I’m not conceited enough to think that you like me just because you patted my head.”

“Really?” Hearing Yu Shu say that, Yan Jin reached out and patted his head. “A promising student, not bad.”

After patting, Yan Jin stared at Yu Shu for a good while. Just as the latter was about to get angry from embarrassment, she teasingly pointed at her own ear. “Little brother Yu Shu, your ears are red.”

Finally, without waiting for Yu Shu’s answer, Yan Jin rested her chin in her hand and looked at him with a smile in her eyes. “Looks like I shouldn’t casually pat heads in the future.”

Yu Shu could clearly see that Yan Jin was teasing him, but he still couldn’t stop his ears from heating up.

“Red ears are very normal.” Yu Shu covered his burning ears and defended himself, “And my ears tend to turn red easily in the first place.”

“Really?” Yan Jin glanced at Yu Shu and said slowly, “I don’t believe it.”

[Every time I open the livestream, I always see Yan Jin teasing Yu Shu.] [Because Yu Shu looks so cute when he’s puffing up in anger. Let alone Yan Jin, even I, as Yu Shu’s fan, want to tease the adorable baby.]

Because he still remembered Yan Jin teasing him, when Yan Jin’s calligraphy practice was gradually improving, Yu Shu brought her to a wall and took a small “revenge”. “Yan Jin, your wrist doesn’t have much strength. The characters you write are floating and powerless. From now on, practice writing on the wall for half an hour. It will also train your wrist strength.”

Yan Jin also knew that writing on the wall was beneficial for improving wrist strength, but– “Write on the wall now?”

She had just learned how to hold the brush. Wasn’t it a bit too early?

Yu Shu really knew how to hold a grudge, seizing the opportunity to “take revenge”.

Hearing this, Yu Shu raised his chin. “Am I the teacher or are you the teacher?”

Yan Jin replied, “You are the teacher.”

“Then you have to listen to me.” Yu Shu carried a hint of smugness. “Who told me to be the teacher and you the student. Students can’t refute the teacher.”

Yan Jin let out an “oh” and stopped arguing. She obediently picked up the brush and started writing on the wall.

She hadn’t even written five characters before Yan Jin stopped.

Yu Shu glared at her fiercely, looking especially authoritative as a teacher. “Why did you stop? Keep writing.”

“My hand is sore, I can’t write.” Yan Jin lowered her head and rubbed her hand. “I’ll rest for a bit before writing more.”

“Writing a few characters and saying your hand is sore, Yan Jin you’re too delicate.” While Yan Jin had her head lowered and wasn’t paying attention, Yu Shu sneakily tugged her ponytail. “Delicate little thing.”

“You’re calling me a delicate little thing?” Yan Jin raised her head and stared unblinkingly at Yu Shu, making the latter inexplicably feel a bit guilty.

Giving people nicknames was indeed not very good.

But thinking of the “delicate little thing” Yan Jin had blurted out before, Yu Shu felt justified again. He even deliberately tugged Yan Jin’s hair lightly right in front of her. “What’s wrong with me calling you a delicate little thing? Didn’t you also secretly call me that in your heart?”

[Yu Shu grew some guts, daring to give Yan Jin a nickname and even tug her hair. Childish male college student Yu Shu.] [But this also proves that the two are slowly getting familiar with each other. There’s no longer that polite, distant feeling from the beginning. It’s just that based on this development, I suspect once they’re fully familiar, they’ll bicker every day.] [If the two of them fight, it’ll probably be like two childish primary school kids pecking at each other.]

Yan Jin, who had indeed given Yu Shu nicknames, and not just “delicate little thing”, guiltily shut her mouth.

Seeing Yan Jin not daring to “question” him anymore, Yu Shu thought his authority had shocked her, so he nodded in satisfaction. “Write seriously and don’t slack off. I’m going out to buy some small gifts for greeting the neighbors later. When I come back, I want to see you fill up this wall.”

After instructing Yan Jin, Yu Shu went out to get the small gifts he and Yan Jin would use when visiting the neighbors later.

Although Yan Jin had ordered takeout before and Yu Shu had shared some with the neighbors, it wasn’t very formal after all. So the two decided to officially visit the neighbors once.

As for what Yu Shu said just now about having Yan Jin fill up a wall, it was actually just him casually saying it, deliberately tricking Yan Jin not to slack off.

After all, it was indeed a bit taxing on the wrist for a beginner to write while suspended in the air and fill up a whole wall.

And with how Yan Jin’s hand got sore after writing a few characters, Yu Shu felt she wouldn’t be foolish enough to really go fill up a whole wall.

So when Yu Shu came back home with the ordered gifts and saw the wall filled with characters, his eyes went wide. “How could you really fill up this whole wall?!”
