Chapter 34: A BetIn the noisy cafeteria, Ren Yue looked at Lin He, who was sitting opposite and said, "Your grades are already very good. Need not to work so hard, right?" He was reading while eating. Although it's good to be diligent and earnest, it's not good for your eyes, right?

And as far as Ren Yue thought, Lin He's grades were really good, and there was no need to continue drilling these textbooks of knowledge. With such time and energy, it's better to study something more meaningful.

Lin He has his own plan and said, "My grades are not enough."

Ren Yue stared at the dark circles under Lin He's eyes, his words became softer involuntarily, and he said, "Your grades are already very good."

Lin He pursed his lips. He said, "Our class held a test before, and I was ten points less than Bai Jing. So I think I can throw him more than ten points in this official exam."

There were so many things he could do. He was a student now, so he would defeat the enemy as a student. If the first place in the school was a few tenths points higher than the second and was put on the throne, would he have more confidence in speaking in this school? Would he be able to better protect Ren Yue?

Ren Yue didn't understand the world of these top students. His concept of achievement was to pass the passing line and everything would be fine. However, he would not deny Lin He's idea. He thought about giving Lin He the chicken drumsticks in his lunch box and encouraged him, "Then I'll invite you to eat a big drumstick in advance. I wish you success."

Lin in He smiled happily, but this smile still looked a little weak. After all, he had been studying hard this period of time, and he simply forgot to eat or sleep. Lin He noticed the worry in Ren Yue's eyes. He paused for a moment and then put away his textbook.

Ren Yue was taken aback, and asked him, "You finished reading?"

Lin He said with a smile, "Yes, I am so hungry. I have to eat seriously."

"You're so smart, the knowledge in the textbook should not be difficult for you." Ren Yue puzzled and asked, "It's good if you are more serious in your exams and get more scores on the details."

"My level of knowledge is still not comparable to that of Bai Jing." Lin He thought about it for a while, and said frankly to Ren Yue, "I can feel that he should be a person who has received special study and training, because he is very fast to do questions. These two school exams are not his true level. With my current ability, if I don't work hard, I'm afraid I won't get the first place."

Ren Yue was a little surprised and asked, "Is he so good?"

"He is very powerful."

That day, Ren Yue was sitting in the car after school. He looked at the scenery passing by outside the window and suddenly saw a storefront, so he called the driver to stop. The car stopped in front of the lottery shop that Ren Yue saw. After he got off the car, he picked a number at random and bought the lottery ticket. Then he went home without incident.

At the dinner table, Mr. Bai took the initiative to mention, "I heard from the driver that you bought a lottery ticket."

Ren Yue did not shy away. He confidently stated the number he bought and then added, "Today I am in a good mood. I think I should be lucky, so I want to buy it and try if I win the first prize, I will treat you to dinner."

Mr. Bai frowned and said, "That's settled then."

After taking a bath in the evening, Ren Yue looked at the lottery ticket he was casually still aside, and his eyes were dim. He was thinking, what extent could Mr. Bai's ability achieved? And to what extent would he indulged him? Ren Yue was lying on the bed with his right arm covering his eyes, so... how far and what could he do with the power of Mr. Bai?

On the day of the draw, Ren Yue looked at the corresponding number of the first prize and laughed. Not a bad one. They were all the numbers he chose. He won the prize! It was the first prize as he thought. So that night Ren Yue fulfilled his promise to invite Mr. Bai to dinner, and then at the dinner table he said to Mr. Bai, "Let's make a bet."

Mr. Bai nodded and said, "Yes, what do you want to bet on?"

"I'll bet on the score of this monthly exam—— I'll bet that Lin He's results in this monthly test are not the first in the school." Ren Yue stared directly at Mr. Bai, curved his lips and said, "If I win, let me leave here."

Mr. Bai raised his eyebrows and expressed surprise. He said slowly, "Actually, I'm more interested in your grades. Why don't you bet on your grades?"

Ren Yue did not want to explain, so he simply willfully said, "Because I want to bet on this."

"Yes." Mr. Bai agreed, and then he blinked and said, "Is that if I win, you call me 'dad'?"

Ren Yue raised his chin and said, "Wait until you win."

Mr. Bai smiled. He took a sip of tea, but the hot tea couldn't melt him. He lowered his head to drink the tea, it was the ice that condensed instantly in his eyes. After a while, Mr. Bai raised his head. He looked at Ren Yue with a deep look in his eyes, curled his lips and smiled—— the little guy was calculating him.

Took Lin He's first place as a bet. If Ren Yue won, then Ren Yue would be happy to leave; if he lost, then Ren Yue wouldn't lose, because if he lost, it meant Lin He became the first place in the school.

What a clever cute little guy.

At night, Mr. Bai gave instructions in his study, "Send Bai Jing's tutor to give Lin He a supplementary lesson, and make sure that Lin He gets the first place."

The butler was taken aback for a moment, and then asked, "Then Bai Jing's side..."

"The original plan stopped." Mr. Bai said while flipping through the books in the study, "It's not a bad thing to let him taste the taste of the success first."
