263: First lesson of the new semester

Finally, Qu Qinghuan, who had been 'lectured' all afternoon, finally showed some backbone and, blushing, chased Lin You away.

After eating dinner and taking her medicine, Qu Qinghuan lay in her bedroom for a while and recovered a lot of her strength.

While showering, she looked down at her bulging chest, then looked at her graceful figure in the mirror, blushing as she thought, maybe... it's time to find a boyfriend?

But this time, regarding the topic of finding a boyfriend, the first thing that came to her mind was... No!

In ancient times, she would have been drowned in a pig cage!!!

...On the other side, Lin You left the apartment feeling a bit wronged. I'm such an upright person, how could Sister Qinghuan think of me that way?

Mencius, Li Lou I, Chapter 17 states:

It is asked: If a sister-in-law is drowning, should one extend a hand to save her?

It is answered: If a sister-in-law is drowning and one does not extend a hand, that is to be a jackal. That men and women should not touch each other is a matter of propriety; to extend a hand to a drowning sister-in-law is a matter of expediency.

So Mencius was right, in an emergency, one must act expediently!

Even if it was seen, it was done out of necessity!

No blame should be assigned!

After leaving the residential area, Lin You saw that it was still early. He went back to the Library with his bag and spent another two hours in deep learning before returning to his dorm, looking satisfied.

Wang Zhiyu was scrolling through short videos. He turned his head and greeted with a smile, "Yo, Brother You, gracing your loyal 308 again?"

"Little Yu, quickly offer tea to your master!" Tian Xingjian chimed in, pretending to be a sycophant.

Wang Zhiyu happily took out a bottle of iced black tea from the dorm's communal mini-fridge and handed it to Lin You.

Lin You had purchased this mini-fridge. He even bought a hidden storage cabinet for it, ensuring enough space for heat dissipation. The door had a fingerprint password lock, accessible only to the four residents of 308. When outsiders came in, they would only see a black storage cabinet.

"Tsk... you're all just being polite. My arm is a bit sore..."

Xu Yang immediately took the iced black tea from Wang Zhiyu, twisted open the cap, and shoved it into Lin You's mouth.

Lin You's eyes widened as he passively gulped down two large mouthfuls of iced black tea. "No... Mmmph..."

...Tomorrow was the first class after freshman year enrollment. After everyone in 308 finished washing up, they lay in bed and started their late-night chat.

"Brother You, I heard you've already self-studied all the freshman courses?" Tian Xingjian suddenly asked.

"Who spread that? Why didn't they make me sound more impressive? I've clearly self-studied all four years of university courses, and I'm already preparing to publish an SCI paper..." Lin You replied with a smile, and the room 308 was immediately filled with cheerful air.

Wang Zhiyu laughed heartily, "Brother You, when you're acknowledging people in your thesis, remember to mention me! I've massaged your back and brought you iced black tea~"

Tian Xingjian added, "Me too, I helped Brother You clean his desk."

Clearly, everyone thought Lin You was joking.

You haven't even started your formal courses yet, and you've already finished four years of undergraduate courses and are preparing to publish an SCI paper... Why don't you just say you're graduating next year and going straight to grad school?

If it were anyone else, Xu Yang would have been ready to mock, "How many dishes did you have to drink like that?"

"Tomorrow's courses include two main subjects: 'advanced algebra' and 'Mathematical Analysis'. 'advanced algebra' will be taught by a middle-aged male professor, and 'Mathematical Analysis' by a young female teacher who was just hired as an Associate Professor, named Hu Xian. She's rumored to be the School of Mathematics's most beautiful teacher in history."

Hu Xian? Her name is quite interesting.

But... the School of Mathematics's most beautiful teacher in history?

That doesn't sound very impressive, does it?

Lin You still planned to follow his previous schedule: attend the first class with his Classmates tomorrow, and then go to the Library to study by himself.

Professor Zheng had already informed the teachers of the School of Mathematics that Lin You could freely choose whether or not to attend classes.

The original test papers of the twenty sets of questions that Lin You answered in Professor Zheng's office after coming to Nandu City had been scanned by Professor Zheng and sent to the teachers of the School of Mathematics for review.

The teachers all knew that a top scholar with a score of 737 had come to the School of Mathematics, possessing high mathematical talent, having completed undergraduate courses before enrollment, and mastering them to a high level.

The next day.

Lin You woke up at six, washed up, bought breakfast at the cafeteria, went straight out the West Gate, arrived at Qu Qinghuan's residence in the community, and entered after unlocking the door with a key.

Lin You placed the breakfast on the dining table, then went to the bedroom and gently knocked on the door. After a moment, Qu Qinghuan's nervous voice came from inside the bedroom.

"Is that Lin You? Why are you here already?"

Lin You had mentioned last night that he would come this morning. Hearing her, he said, "I have an 8 AM class today, so I have to go to class later. That's why I came early."

There was a rustling sound from the bedroom. After a while, Qu Qinghuan opened the bedroom door. Today, she had changed into short-sleeved shorts pajamas and seemed to be in better spirits than yesterday.

"Did you take your temperature?"

Qu Qinghuan pointed to her left armpit, a somewhat smug expression on her face, "Already taking it."

After going to the living room and watching Qu Qinghuan eat breakfast, Lin You waited five minutes, then looked at the thermometer's reading of 38.2℃ and nodded.

"After breakfast, continue to take your medicine on time today, and rest well. Don't secretly study in the bedroom. Only when your body is well can you return to high-efficiency studying sooner."

Qu Qinghuan looked incredulous, with an expression of "How did you know?"

"Alright, I'm leaving now. I'll buy lunch and bring it over at noon."

Qu Qinghuan felt a bit embarrassed. Although she enjoyed being taken care of, Lin You was, after all, more than six years younger than her and still a student.

"Actually... you don't have to come..."

Before Qu Qinghuan could finish her sentence, she met Lin You's frowning expression and subconsciously changed her words, "Okay, I'll wait for you at noon!"

Lin You nodded in satisfaction, then left.

Lin You had been gone for a while when Qu Qinghuan furiously threw several punches at the air.

What the heck?!

Does this Lin You still even see me as his teacher?!

Leaving the residential area, Lin You glanced at the time; it was just past seven. He returned to the cafeteria and bought breakfast for his three roommates in 308.

Back in the dorm, Lin You handed each person a hearty breakfast, which was met with a chorus of flattery.

Seven fifty AM.

The classroom in the teaching building was packed with students from several classes, as this 'advanced algebra' course was taught to multiple classes together.

For the first class of freshman year, students generally sat in groups of four, by their dorm rooms.

When the four from 308 arrived at the classroom, it was already more than half full. The front rows were mostly taken, so Lin You and his three roommates could only find seats in the back.

"Didn't they say online that the front rows of university classrooms are usually empty? Why are all the empty seats in the back?" Wang Zhiyu said, somewhat speechless, after sitting down.

Xu Yang pushed up his glasses. "Next time, let's come earlier. Our school has quite a few kings of cramming."

Lin You didn't respond, placing his textbooks on the desk, preparing to try listening to one class first.

Just before the eight o'clock bell rang, a middle-aged male teacher walked in. After a brief self-introduction, the class bell rang.

The male teacher didn't waste words and immediately began teaching the main topic.

When Lin You first started self-studying university textbooks, he had searched for lectures from famous universities online. What the male teacher taught was largely similar to what Lin You had seen.

The lecture speed was fast. After listening for a while, Lin You realized there was nothing he hadn't mastered, so he opened his tablet, clicked on a document, and continued his task of diligently reading documents.

As soon as the dismissal bell rang, Lin You said goodbye to the Class Monitor Tian Xingjian and his other two roommates, then picked up his backpack and left the classroom.

Wang Zhiyu was stunned. After a while, he said, "What did Brother You just say? He's not attending class anymore?! The dean gave him special permission??!!"
