Chapter 7 (2/2)
“I’ll correct them myself first. If there are any mistakes, you can point them out for me,” Jian Yiling said as she tried to avoid as much contact with Qin Chuan as possible.
Jian Yiling was still not used to communicating with people so she spoke slower than normal people.
When Qin Chuan saw Jian Yiling insisting to do it that way, he did not force her to do it some other way. He sat down on the sofa next to her and waited for Jian Yiling to finish the questions.
Jian Yiling took advantage of Qin Chuan not paying attention to place the test paper underneath something. She took out her phone and started typing.
If Qin Chuan were to walk over right now, he would see that all the words that Jian Yiling was typing were English.
After a while, Qin Chuan came over to check how Jian Yiling was progressing with correcting the mistakes.
When Qin Chuan came over, Jian Yiling hid her phone and acted seemingly focused on the problem.
Qin Chuan glanced over the question that Jian Yiling was answering.
He found out that although Jian Yiling had only corrected one question, she did it right.
There were no problems with her problem-solving procedure either.
The progress was a bit slow, so Qin Chuan decided to explain the questions whilst Jian Yiling corrected her answers.
As Qin Chuan approached, Jian Yiling carefully swiped her phone from under the test paper onto her thigh.
Qin Chuan didn’t see Jian Yiling’s phone. He only saw her cowering.
It seemed like she was very timid?
Qin Chuan didn’t think too much into it and began to explain a question to Jian Yiling.
Qin Chuan spoke incredibly well. He explained a complicated topic into simple words making it easy to understand. When he talked about key points, Qin Chuan took a pen and paper from Jian Yiling and wrote it down so it would be convenient for her to review later.
While he was holding the pen and paper, Qin Chuan accidentally touched Jian Yiling’s hands. Jian Yiling had immediately avoided him.
Her reaction was akin to a frightened little rabbit.
At that moment, Qin Chuan felt as though he had bullied a little girl.
However, Jian Yiling only reacted that way because she was afraid to have contact with strangers. Especially if the stranger was Qin Chuan. That sort of reaction was instinctive to her.
