“My daughter told me about this…”
“My mother said that as long as I am in the top three in the final exam, it would be okay.” Bo Qian anxiously said.
Mother Wei turned her head and glared at her daughter.
Are you so shameless?
After all, she should make things difficult for her. This is her right as Bo Qian’s mother.
Bo Qian rushed forward and took her mother’s hand, “Mom, you just promised me. You can’t break your promise. You will get fat and your waist will become 30 inches.”
“You can’t be rude.” Tang Yushu whispered to her.
Bo Qian pouted. “I’m kidding.”
Mother Wei felt conflicted for a while.
Her daughter is too obedient in front of her teachers, she will talk back to her parents, but she shrinks in front of her boyfriend.
“I will urge her to do her homework.” Tang Yushu reassured Mother Wei.
“Teacher Tang has a PhD in Mathematics from University A. he will be the assistant professor at University A next semester. Under his supervision, my mathematics exam will definitely get 100 points!”
“Oh?” He was still young but he already has a PhD in mathematics and will be an assistant professor at University A. hearing this, Mother Wei’s eyes couldn’t help but shine. “Have you had dinner? Why don’t you stay for dinner?”
“I want to eat duck noodles for dinner.”
“Our family has some home-cooked dishes. I didn’t buy duck today. Is smoked chicken okay?”
“I want to eat duck noodles for dinner.”
What’s wrong with this person?
Is he so picky?
Mother Wei couldn’t help but get irritated, and she spoke with a tone like she was speaking with a child, “I just told you that there is no duck, only smoked chicken. Are you still picky even if you are already an adult?”
“Mom!” Bo Qian hurriedly pulled Mother Wei aside and told her about Tang Yushu’s little quirks.
“Ah? He only eats what he wants?” Mother Wei was astonished. “Isn’t that a bit weird?”
“It’s cute.” Bo Qian chuckled. “It’s normal for this kind of clever person to be a little quirky.”
“You!” Mother Wei poked Bo Qian’s forehead. “You’re so protective of him.”
“Mom, you are also like this about Dad.”
Mother Wei was choked, “But I let your Dad chase me for a whole year…”
Afraid that her Mom would again talk about her love story with her Dad, Bo Qian interrupted her, “Okay, okay. Mom, I will accompany him to eat duck noodles.”
“You haven’t convinced me yet. Promise that you’ll meet the requirements.” Mother Wei said again.
Do you want to sneak away?
“There’s an English quiz test tomorrow. I will give you 100 points.”
“You have never scored 100 points in your English test.”
Each time, she always score 99 or 98. She can always perfect it if she wants. Mother Wei really don’t know why her daughter’s temperament is too careful.
“I will do it for love.” She chuckled again.
Mother Wei thought that it would be fine.
When children fall in love, their biggest fear would be to miss their homework. If it becomes a driving force for progress, they will naturally be happy to see it happen.
“Okay, go and change your clothes. Don’t go out in your uniform, it’s too conspicuous.” Mother Wei said.
“Yes, thank you Mom.” Bo Qian kissed her mother happily.
“Come back home before eight o’clock. That Teacher Su is coming to visit our family.” Mother Wei reminded.
“Yes.” Bo Qian nodded.
Bo Qian went to change her clothes while Tang Yushu stood at the door from start to finish.
Mother Wei couldn’t help but curiously ask, “What do you like about my daughter?”
“I don’t know.”
“You don’t know?”
“She is not a math problem. She has no formulas and I can’t calculate the asnwer.”
“Ah?”
“On August 30, 2021, the mathematician Mochizuki Shinichi declared that he had solved the ABC conjecture. The theory he used is Inter-universal Teichmuller that was not understood by most mathematicians. But even if he has proved it, careful study can still find that…”
“Wait a minute.” Mother Wei hurriedly prevented him from continuing to speak alien words, “I belong to the literary word, and I don’t understand what you are talking about.”
“Oh.”
“Can you use a ore approachable words. How about explaining in an ordinary way so that an ordinary person like me would understand.”
Tang Yushu thought, “Generally speaking, 1+1=2…”
“Can you use Chinese?”
“I just spoke in Chinese.” He did not even use English.
“Don’t involve mathematics.”
Tang Yushu slightly lowered his head, his brows frowned. It was obvious that he was stuck in a problem.
“Forget it, I won’t ask.”
How could her daughter like this kind of man!
“I like Bo Qian.” He slightly nodded. “This is Chinese.”
“Uh… okay. I get it.”
Mother Wei couldn’t help but be thankful that she didn’t make trouble just now. Otherwise, she might be the one who would be embarrassed.
Wei Bo Qian came out wearing a youthful outfit. Seeing that the atmosphere between her mother and Tang Yushu seemed to be a little embarrassing, she walked between the two.
“Mom, we’re leaving.”
“Come back early.”
“Okay.”
Bo Qian took Tang Yushu’s hand after leaving the house.
“What did you talk about with my mother earlier?”
“She asked why I like you.”
“Then what did you say?”
“You are not a math problem, I don’t know.”
“Emotional things are not calculated by formulas.” Bo Qian snorted softly.
Tang Yushu looked at the girl who was getting closer and closer to him, and softly said, “Actually, I hate girls.”
“Huh?”
