Chapter 527 Shattering the Dao Heart
"Let me guess, last time you talked to me about how you've fallen for Xiao Airen, could this time be asking for advice on the right way to confess your feelings?"
“Well…” Bi Yangde coughed twice to cover his embarrassment, “It’s too early to confess, let’s wait a little longer, let’s wait a little longer.”
Lu You always adheres to the principle of only offering advice when the person seeking help, and never interfering in other people's feelings without authorization.
Even though he believed that the emotional bond between Bi Yangde and Xiao Airen was enough to support them taking things further.
"So, what do you want to tell me?"
Bi Yangde clasped his hands together, straightened his posture slightly, and said, "You usually go home with Tang Wan on weekends, right?"
"I'm not sure, I've never brought any other girls to show you guys before," Lu You said, amused.
“Don’t misunderstand, I didn’t suspect you of having multiple relationships.” Bi Yangde quickly waved his hand to explain, “I just wanted to ask what you usually do at home on weekends.”
Countless images flashed through Lu You's mind, some suitable for all ages and some unsuitable for children. The former accounted for 30% and the latter for 70%, a difference of more than double.
It's not that we spend more time engaging in sexually explicit activities than in normal interactions, but rather that events unsuitable for children are more memorable than events suitable for all ages.
Ordinary playful fighting and physical contact fade away in the blink of an eye.
A deep, immersive experience, close and intimate, will be remembered for at least a month.
Especially the extra side dishes, such as black stockings, uniforms, and cosplay, are still unforgettable even months later.
After a while.
Lu You broke free from her memories.
"Eating, sleeping, chatting, watching TV series, watching movies, and occasionally going for a walk in the city at night, that's about it."
Don't you guys play games?
"We play occasionally, but neither of us is particularly interested in games, so we don't play them much."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu You experienced a moment of mental confusion.
Looking back to before high school, games were an indispensable part of my daily mental nourishment.
If I don't play for a day, I feel uncomfortable all over, like ants are crawling all over me.
But now, not only can one say "I'm not into games" without any hesitation, but times have truly changed.
"Not playing much is still playing!" Bi Yangde's expression brightened, and he leaned forward, repeatedly asking, "What types of games do you play?"
“Hmm…” Lu You looked thoughtful. “There are quite a few, mainly single-player RPGs, and multiplayer cooperative interactive games.”
"Can a single-player RPG be played by two people?"
Biyande has played almost all the well-known single-player RPGs on the market, and has repeatedly enjoyed some of the masterpieces.
Without exception, they all played by themselves.
“Why not? Do you remember the ultra-high-definition TV in my living room?” Lu You gestured a large rectangle with her hands.
"I remember it, it left a deep impression on me."
Bi Yangde had only ever encountered such a large, high-definition TV, about 100 inches in size, in shopping malls.
"We would connect the console to the TV, one of us would play and the other would watch. Each of us had one life, and if someone died, we would switch lives. We would discuss the game as we played. It was similar to watching a movie, but the immersion was much stronger."
Bi Yangde silently made a mental note that when he earned rice in the future, he would also buy a 100-inch TV and a house big enough to accommodate it.
"When you first played the game, who called out to whom?"
"I think... I called her? I don't quite remember. What's the point of asking this question?" Lu You stared straight at Bi Yangde, her eyes filled with inquiry.
Bi Yangde scratched his head, hesitated for a while, and said, "I want to invite Xiao Airen to play a game, but I don't know how to bring it up."
Lu You couldn't help but smile and said, "It's such a trivial matter, why worry about it? Just tell her, 'I'm playing a really fun game, do you want to come?'"
"What if she never plays games? Wouldn't it seem presumptuous of me to suddenly ask her to play?"
As someone who had been through it all, Lu You understood Bi Yangde's concerns to some extent.
No matter how brave or decisive a person is, they will become timid and hesitant when it comes to matters involving their loved ones.
"Then let me ask you, before you met Xiao Airen, did you watch TV dramas?"
Bi Yangde shook his head and said, "I won't look. I have no interest whatsoever."
"After getting to know Xiao Airen and being recommended by her, what happened?"
"I make time to watch every movie she recommends."
Lu You clapped her hands and then spread them out, "That settles it! There are indeed many differences between men and women, whether physiological or psychological, but when it comes to liking someone, they have a lot in common."
You like Xiao Airen, and you'll try to understand her preferences to get closer to her. Similarly, Xiao Airen likes you, and she'll try things you recommend to get closer to you. It's a two-way process.
Lu You's blunt and straightforward revelation made Bi Yangde blush.
It's like accidentally turning on the loudspeaker while watching something suggestive in public, or being arrested by your family midway through a daytime outburst of self-expression, feeling like your whole body is burning hot, and it feels like there's molten lava flowing under your skin.
Bi Yangde lowered his head, grabbed Lu You's wrist with one hand, and said in a suppressed tone, "Great God, could you please be a little more tactful with your words? Don't be so direct."
Lu You glanced at Zhang Zhichuang, who was leaning against Bi Yangde's table, watching the gossip with great interest, and then patted Bi Yangde on the shoulder.
"Then I won't say anything more. Just remember not to indulge in daydreams or pursue empty fame. Whatever you think of, put it into practice. Don't assume an infinite future based on limited conditions. This applies to both relationships and studies."
Around 12:30.
Lu You left the dormitory with his backpack, along with his computer.
Zhang Zhichuang sat in front of the computer, looking serious. The black pen tip scratched across the pure white paper, making a soft, rustling sound.
Biyande lay on the bed, his hands behind his head, his thoughts drifting away.
After an unknown amount of time, Bi Yangde suddenly sat up, grabbed his phone from beside his pillow, and opened WeChat.
[Beyonde: Are you there?]
[Beyonde: Do you play games?]
……
crunch--
Lu You slowly pushed open the solid wood door and stepped into the room.
Two heads peeked out from behind the desk screen, casting their gaze toward the doorway.
"Hey, junior Lu You? Good afternoon!" Zhao Bin waved enthusiastically with a smile.
Yuan Wei remained calm, nodding slightly in acknowledgment, appearing somewhat aloof.
Hello, seniors.
Lu You responded politely to the two of them while glancing around the office.
There are a total of nine desks, seven of which have items piled up, and two are empty.
This wasn't Lu You's first time here; he knew exactly who used each desk.
Xiao Liang used three sheets, Zhao Bin and Yuan Wei each used one sheet, the other two sheets belonged to Xiao Liang's two doctoral students, and the remaining two sheets were reserved as spares.
"Isn't Professor Xiao here?"
"You're looking for Professor Xiao? He went to audit a senior student's thesis defense; he probably won't be here all afternoon," Zhao Bin explained.
"In a hurry?"
After spending several weeks together, Yuan Wei developed a very positive impression of Lu You.
He was slightly less handsome than himself, equally intelligent, and had the same level of musical talent—every single one of these qualities perfectly matched his criteria for choosing a friend.
If Lu You needs anything, Yuan Wei would not mind providing assistance within his capabilities.
"No, I was just asking."
Yuan Wei didn't say anything more, pulled her head back, and continued with her own business.
Lu You walked to an empty table and ran her finger across the surface.
Surprisingly, it was quite clean.
I put my backpack on the table, looked around, found a chair, sat down comfortably, unzipped my backpack, took out my laptop, turned on the screen, and successfully connected to the campus network.
To ensure a stable internet connection, Lu You took out paper and pen from a compartment in her bag, accessed the Asai website, and officially began answering the questions.
The first question is a multiple-choice question.
The title is very long and contains a lot of words.
Lu You decisively ignored the irrelevant background information and focused on reading the key information before and after the numbers and formulas.
Spend half a minute understanding the question, half a minute finding a solution, and then write down the calculation.
Multiple-choice questions emphasize the result over the process.
Using the problem-solving techniques he had learned, Lu You quickly listed several possible outcomes, then substituted them one by one with the options to arrive at the correct answer.
The whole thing took no more than five minutes.
Without pausing for a moment, Lu You immediately moved on to the second question.
Geometry problem, multiple choice.
Unlike the first word problem, which had a detailed story background, this problem is purely a logic problem.
In short, set the conditions, define the scope, provide the premises, and seek the result.
In real life, the shorter the article, the easier it is to understand. However, in the field of mathematics, it is the opposite: the shorter the problem, the more difficult it is to solve, and the more basic the theorem, the more difficult it is to approach.
For example, Goldbach's conjecture, or the geometry problem before us.
Lu You paused writing and observed for two minutes, and an ancient theorem surfaced.
Lu You quickly seized this fleeting inspiration, drew geometric patterns on the paper, drew a few auxiliary lines, and the solution to the problem emerged.
The subsequent standard procedure involves classifying and discussing different conditions to arrive at several ranges. By comparing these ranges with the options, the problem can be resolved.
Moving on to the next question.
Probability theory multiple-choice questions are not Lu You's forte, but the questions themselves are not difficult and he can handle them.
At the same time, Zhao Bin, carrying a water glass, quietly appeared behind Lu You, observing from a distance.
Zhao Bin also signed up to participate in this year's Azerbaijan.
As soon as he got up this morning, he didn't even have time for breakfast before logging into the system to answer questions.
After a whole morning of work, I barely managed to finish the first three questions, which shows how difficult they were.
Zhao Bin was particularly stumped by the second geometry problem for two hours, searching through various resources before finally finding the relevant theorem.
Let me see how well my junior is at solving problems.
Zhao Bin took a sip of water, squinted, and his superb 5.2 vision allowed him to easily see the content on the screen.
A and B are playing a card game. At the start of the game, A has n cards, each pair of which is different from the last, and B has n+1 cards...
Huh, how come it's already the third probability theory question?
It's only been less than twenty minutes, right?
Did the junior skip the question?
Zhao Bin's gaze shifted upwards, and his pupils suddenly dilated.
In the blank space for the second question, four options lay quietly.
Wow! You actually solved it? Really?
Zhao Bin stared wide-eyed in disbelief, looked at it several times, and closed his eyes after confirming that he hadn't seen it wrong.
At that moment, a line from the song "July 7th, Sunny Day" echoed in his mind.
I dare not open my eyes; I hope it's just my imagination.
They're from the same school, why is there such a huge difference between them!
As for whether Lu You had just guessed an answer and filled it in randomly, Zhao Bin never considered that.
Firstly, the multiple-choice question scoring criteria require all questions to be answered correctly to receive points; missing or incorrect answers will result in no points, making it extremely difficult to score points by guessing.
Secondly, there are a full 48 hours to answer the questions, and only 12 hours have passed so far, so there is plenty of time.
Therefore, there is only one possibility: Lu You did indeed solve the problem that had troubled Zhao Bin for two hours in less than twenty minutes.
I'm not watching anymore, I'm not watching anymore, if I keep watching I'll shatter my Dao heart!
Zhao Bin returned to his seat and looked through the assignments Professor Xiao had given this week.
He originally wanted to continue writing about Asahi, but this setback has dampened his spirits.
……
Lu You put down her pen, pressed her shoulders, gently twisted her neck, and glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the screen out of the corner of her eye.
14:27
It was completed within an hour and a half, as expected.
After a quick check, Lu You clicked to confirm and submit, closed her laptop, and picked up her phone instead.
Husband: That's it.
Husband: You can leave now.
Wait twenty seconds for the reply to arrive.
[My beloved concubine: Mwah~]
[My beloved concubine: Wash yourself clean, Newnew, and wait for me!]
Lu You hesitated, then ultimately said nothing.
Tang Wan's abnormality has been going on for a while now; you'll get used to it. (End of Chapter)
