Chapter 437, Trivial Matter
March has ended, and what follows is the period of preparation for entrance exams, which lasts from the beginning of the month to the end of the year.
Zhuo not only has to make full preparations for his own plan, but also has to take into account his part-time job. Every day is already very busy, and now he has to review for the exam. There is even more to do, and there is really little time left for him to relax.
However, Zhuo did not feel disgusted with this life that could not be more fulfilled in order to rush towards a known future.
"Spring break just ended, and I have to prepare for exams right away. It's really stressful."
In order to prepare for the exam, the teacher thoughtfully distributed piles of review materials. Ren looked at the hill and sighed.
Depending on the subject, some teachers will compile the knowledge points to be tested into a handout in order to motivate students, and students will gratefully use this material, but the sheer volume of the handout also makes many students feel overwhelmed. Just from the number of pages in the handout, it can be seen that the scope of the exam is quite wide and the knowledge points to remember are countless.
"Compared to the first and second year of high school, the pressure of exams is even greater, and grades are becoming more and more important. The burden on us is really not small... Speaking of which, this range is really exaggerated. Although the teacher teaches very quickly, there is nothing we can do about it."
"But I think this is too much!"
Yurina was no exception. She held the lecture notes in her arms, put on a bitter face which was considered taboo for young girls, and lay on the desk that belonged to Zhuo.
When Zero, who was standing by, saw Yurina's face, he didn't show any sympathy. His face was still expressionless, or rather, he just stared at her. He probably couldn't sense Yurina's reluctance.
"That's right, it's impossible. We can't do it at all."
"You say that, but you get good grades on the exams and your grades are great... After all, you're in Class A, so why are you complaining in Class B?"
"Hey!?"
"Hey you head!"
"For the time being, I still take my classes seriously."
"I can see that you are the type who can complain but still deliver results at critical moments. You really are very good at it... wuwu..."
Even if Moritani was crying and looking sad, the best Zhuo could do was not to laugh at him. As for how many points he could get in the exam, that was determined by his usual efforts and he could only rely on himself to solve it.
"Yuri, you'd better work harder. Seeing you fail to achieve results in this state will really affect the morale of the troops..."
"Even if you say that, I still don't know how to make me fall in love with studying. What should I do?"
"Then go back to your leading class and stop disturbing the minions."
"don't want--!"
"You have to take this even if you don't want it."
"Wow~Mother Zero, Daddy bullies me."
As she said this, Yurina tried to hug Zero who was watching from the side, but it was obvious that Yurina was taller and didn't look like a child at all. Although her behavior was very childish.
Although the result was as expected, Zero dodged it in time.
"I don't remember ever having a child as old as you. Also, don't stick with Zero."
"Are you jealous?"
"Yes, yes, I'm jealous." "...Since you've admitted that you're jealous, let's just forget about it."
"Do you think this is funny?"
"I'm overthinking."
Yurina's attitude just now was clearly trying to make fun of Zhuo, but now she has changed her attitude from a willful child and turned her head to the side with a nonchalant attitude, which is really a headache.
"I haven't denied that we're husband and wife." Hearing Yurina's whisper, Zhuo glared at her and told her to stop talking. Zhuo put the pile of information that had just been distributed into a folder and sighed softly.
"Oh, it's time to start. What are you going to do with your part-time job?"
There was no part-time work scheduled for today, so Zhuo could relax a little. Just as he was looking at the schedule on his mobile phone and sorting out future arrangements in his mind, Sen Gu raised this question.
Moriya's question made Yurina and Zero look at him at the same time. Although Zero knew roughly how his part-time job was, he didn't ask how he spent his time, so he wanted to know about this topic. Zhuo thought that maybe she had wanted to ask it for a long time, but just kept holding back.
"Well, the part-time job schedule is similar to usual. I haven't fallen behind in my classes, and I've reserved time for later. I plan to start preparing after the summer vacation. I've already made it clear to my boss that I'm going to quit in the second half of the year."
"You seem quite confident that you can finish it."
"Yeah - because Ling taught me a lot at home, she is very good at this now."
People who are good at learning may not be able to teach others clearly, and Zero belongs to this category. However, should we talk about the ability of "Mirror Eye" or the efforts made by Zero in this regard? She now has her own way of teaching people.
Thanks to Ling's perfect grasp of all the course content, she was able to understand the knowledge points tested in the questions, find out the difficulties encountered by Zhuo, and give him a push from behind by providing examples and hints, so that he could solve the questions.
This is a way of helping Zhuo that allows him to fully use his brain, and it really takes Zhuo into consideration.
As for the subjects that needed to be memorized, Zhuo couldn't rely on Ling. Fortunately, Zhuo didn't plan to continue his studies, so the role of that knowledge would not particularly affect his life, so it didn't matter.
"You can talk so easily, maybe because you don't have the pressure of going to college... I'm so envious..."
"Ah, every family has its own problems. I was thinking it would be great if I could just inherit a store and live a carefree life."
"Don't attack me with such harsh words~"
If even words like these sound like an attack, then it's probably your problem - Zhuo really couldn't say such overly harsh words, but the expression on Ren's face soon wilted, probably because he vaguely sensed this from Zhuo's gaze.
Judging from this, Ren's family issues have not been perfectly resolved yet, which can be seen from Yurina's unnatural expression.
"It would be nice if I could really settle down in Tokyo."
"It will definitely be hard, but I believe you can do it."
"I think so too. Come on, Mr. Utsunomiya~~"
All kinds of things will happen in families with too big a disparity between them, Zhuo shrugged his shoulders and waved his hand after changing the subject.
I hope they can find their own way.
