Chapter 9 - 9 Friends

It turns out that studying diligently, these four words, are indeed difficult!

A math quiz.

Yun Shifei stared intently at the math test paper.

"If the line l1: (m+3)x+4y+3m−5=0 and the line l2: 2x+(m+5)y−8=0 are parallel, then the value of m is..."

Yun Shifei's brain was currently in a brainstorm.

In the end, she picked an option that seemed pleasing to the eye and filled it in.

The day before, she was still confidently believing that hard work would surely pay off. But under the harsh reality, she finally recognized her position.

Already not sensitive to science, and with a weak foundation, looking at this paper was like looking at astronomical calculations.

Yun Shifei felt extremely upset, and after handing in the paper, she felt even more desperate.

No need to think; when the results are out, she'll probably score no more than twenty or thirty points.

Most of the questions she got right were through guessing.

Yun Shifei bit her lip, feeling anxious; this couldn't continue.

She couldn't figure it out on her own; she should discuss with Xu Ya, and getting a tutor would be best.

Today, after school, she didn't have to be forced to do duty.

She packed her things and was about to leave when she unexpectedly saw Cheng Guomin at the door.

Cheng Guomin smiled at Yun Shifei when he saw her. "Shi Fei, you're in the same class as Xiao Lie?"

"Yes, Uncle Cheng."

She was a bit surprised; usually, the driver came to pick up Cheng Lie, so why was it someone different today?

"I happened to have some free time today, so I came to the school to see Xiao Lie."

It seemed like Cheng Guomin knew what Yun Shifei was wondering and explained.

Yun Shifei responded with an "oh." She was about to say goodbye to Cheng Guomin when he asked her, "Do you know how Xiao Lie is doing at school?"

"How is he doing?"

"How does he perform at school?"

Perform?

Yun Shifei found Cheng Guomin's question a bit strange. Cheng Lie had mild autism, and even if he understood what others were saying, he never talked to anyone.
