Chapter 131 It Does Not Matter To You

In the library, Eileen handed Elm a math paper she had prepared herself, instructing him to complete it without looking at his textbook. The questions were all very basic, covering only half a page.

Knowing that it would take around half an hour to complete, Eileen proceeded to practice writing Uprian and do Uprian comprehension exercises.

Eileen refrained from checking on him because she didn’t want to pressure him.

After half an hour had passed, regardless of whether he had finished or not, his work was collected.

Eileen looked at the paper and noticed that he was unable to recall even the most basic mathematical formulas.

gave him twenty points due to their relationship. Additionally, he wrote a glossary and his work was neat.

Eileen sighed repeatedly, growing more confused. “No…. Elm, what have you been doing these past two years?”

Elm tossed his pen aside, kicked back with one leg over the other, and fell back into his chair. He tilted his head and said with a grin, “I’ve been having fun!”

Eileen then said, “But you can’t be this careless. You should at least pay some attention during class! Haven’t you noticed? The problems I’ve given you are exactly the same as the ones in the first lesson of the math book. Don’t tell me you haven’t even flipped through the book.”

“We’ve been classmates for two years, haven’t we? Don’t you know me?”

Eileen reached out, intending to poke his forehead. Meeting his gaze, she said nothing more, her eyes filled with a certain unspoken emotion.

Elm softened his expression, extending his left index finger to touch hers. “There’s still half a year left. It’s enough time. You teach, and I’ll do my best to remember.”
