Chapter 093: Strange Dream

"Yao Yao, what's wrong with you?" Chen Yushu was startled, looking at Chu Mengyao, whose expression was about to break into tears, not knowing what had happened to her.

"Nothing..." Chu Mengyao sighed deeply. "Xiao Shu, do you think I was too harsh today?"

"No!" Chen Yushu sensed something from Chu Mengyao's words. Could she still be troubled by today's events? Yao Yao didn't seem to be the kind of person who would be so sensitive.

"Maybe... He doesn't care..." Chu Mengyao shook her head.

"Yao Yao... Your test paper?" Chen Yushu suddenly noticed that Chu Mengyao's test paper was filled with detailed solutions, and she was surprised. "Did Brother Arrow write this for you? He's really nice to you!"

When grading someone else's test paper, there was no obligation to write out the solutions to the wrong answers. Everyone had heard the teacher's explanations and would correct their own papers afterward. However, Lin Yi had written out the solutions in detail for Chu Mengyao, which surprised Chen Yushu and also made her understand why Chu Mengyao was like this!

Chu Mengyao didn't say anything and focused on the questions she had answered incorrectly. Seeing Chu Mengyao studying seriously, Chen Yushu also turned her attention to her own test paper.

She was surprised to find that Lin Yi's solutions were even more detailed than the teacher's. Chu Mengyao was amazed; Lin Yi seemed to be afraid she wouldn't understand, and every step was explained in great detail, even with annotations. This made Chu Mengyao not only surprised but also start to doubt Lin Yi's identity!

Where did her father find this person? The first time she saw him, she thought he was a migrant worker, but now, how could a migrant worker solve a third-year high school math problem?

When Chu Mengyao saw the last bonus question, she was initially surprised. Hadn't she solved it? When Mr. Liu explained it, she had felt a bit proud, as no one else in the class had solved it, but she had. This had satisfied her vanity a little.

However, when Chu Mengyao saw Lin Yi's solution, she was stunned! It was a method she had never seen before, but it was much simpler than her own!

Chu Mengyao felt a surge of emotion. She knew that Lin Yi was genuinely trying to help her, not just going through the motions. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to write out this method.

"Xiao Shu... Look at the solution to this problem..." Chu Mengyao sighed and pushed her test paper toward Chen Yushu.

"Huh?" Chen Yushu initially thought Chu Mengyao needed help with a question, but when she saw the solution Lin Yi had written, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide. "No way! Brother Arrow is so amazing? Not only is he good at fighting, but he's also so good at studying! Yao Yao, you got a great deal!"

"Got a great deal?" Chu Mengyao looked at Chen Yushu, puzzled.

"Where can you find a guy like this? You should make your move first, or someone else will snatch him away!" Chen Yushu said.

"..." Chu Mengyao pursed her lips and said disdainfully, "Him? Who would want him?"

"Hehe..." Chen Yushu smiled slyly. "Many people, just wait and see."

After finishing his meal, Lin Yi threw the two leftover ribs to General Wu. He had originally planned to save them for noodles the next morning, but since it was the weekend, Uncle Fu said he would take care of all three meals. Besides, Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu would definitely sleep in, so there was no need for him to get up early to make breakfast.

Back in his room, Lin Yi fell onto the bed. There had been a lot to do today, and he had been mentally tense while boiling medicine for Yang Huaijun in the afternoon. He felt really tired and didn't want to get up after lying down.

Skipping a day of practice shouldn't matter, right? Lin Yi hesitated... Since he came out of that strange cave, he hadn't slept. He spent every night practicing, but after practicing, he felt energized, as if he had slept for ten hours.

At home, no matter how tired he was, Old Lin was always watching, so Lin Yi didn't dare to slack off. During missions, he had to stay alert and couldn't really sleep.

This situation was unprecedented. Without Old Lin's supervision and no danger around, Lin Yi thought about slacking off.

Indeed, people become lazy in comfort.

Lin Yi sighed. However, he was really tired today and didn't want to practice. He just wanted to sleep soundly.

Vaguely, Lin Yi seemed to enter a void, a complete darkness...

Lin Yi immediately became alert. Where was this place? Was he dreaming?

Suddenly, as if following his thoughts, the void became incredibly bright, like daylight.

And a figure gradually condensed in front of him...

"Who... are you?" Lin Yi asked instinctively.

He hadn't had a dream in years and had gradually forgotten the feeling of dreaming. Was he dreaming now?

"My surname is Jiao..." The figure slowly condensed into the form of an old man, with a somewhat ethereal and dignified appearance. He said calmly in front of Lin Yi.

"What? Sex?" Lin Yi was stunned, looking at the old man... He thought, how could this person be so vulgar? Saying such a word right away? Could it be that watching too many adult films had corrupted his mind, making even his dreams dirty?

"Uh..." The old man was immediately embarrassed. "My surname is Jiao, known as Jiao Yazi, that's me."

"What? Foot?" Lin Yi was even more stunned. What kind of dream was this? Was it a joke?

Jiao Yazi was speechless... No one had called him by this nickname in years, but he didn't expect this kid to blurt it out. He was a bit displeased. "It's Jiao Yazi, not foot, you little brat, don't be disrespectful to me!"

"Sorry, Old Jiao... I misheard earlier..." Lin Yi was a bit embarrassed, but he thought, it's just a dream character, no need to take it so seriously, right?

"Do you think you're dreaming?" Jiao Yazi seemed to see through Lin Yi's thoughts and sneered at him.

"Uh? Isn't it?" Lin Yi was taken aback and looked at Jiao Yazi strangely.

"Then pinch yourself and see if it hurts," Jiao Yazi said mockingly. "I didn't expect that my ancestor's illusion, sealed in this jade pendant, waiting for a destined person, would end up with a fool like you."
