I’m Not a Badass

  Chapter 124 New Neighbors

   The episode "Your Name" was quickly forgotten by Bai Mufan.

For him, the novel "Your Name" was just something he moved here by accident. Now that it can help Ji Yan of Xia Fan's family get through the difficulties of the transition period, then there is no need for him to put the redundant If I put more energy on this, I still focus on learning.

After school in the afternoon, Bai Mufan planned to discuss with Xue Xiaoyan about tutoring in the future. Although the difficulty of the monthly exam has been passed, there is still a higher hurdle of the college entrance examination, and now Xue Xiaoyan is still a bit too far behind. She tutors, and it may be difficult to get into a good school.

  However, the frequency of tutoring may not be so high. Bai Mufan plans to reduce it to about two or three times a week. Xue Xiaoyan has already made up a lot of foundation, so there is no need for such high-intensity tutoring.

  He turned his head to look at the position in the corner, but couldn't help but startled.

  Xue Xiaoyan had already left at some point.

  Bai Mufan remembered that she was still there during class in the afternoon, so she didn't skip class, but left the school as soon as school was over.

   Is there something important?

  Bai Mufan was a little puzzled, but he didn't think too much about it. We'll talk about it when we come over tomorrow. It's not an urgent matter anyway.

  He packed up his things and went to the literature department.

  Xia Yan saw him coming, his eyes lit up, and he wanted to stand up subconsciously, but in the end he held back and sat there reservedly stroking his long hair, and said with a smile, "Afan, are you back?"

   "Well, I'm back." Bai Mufan nodded with a smile, greeted several other members of the Literature Department, and sat down in his seat.

  His ears were relatively sharp, and he heard two female members whispering not far away.

   "I just said why the minister suddenly ran over so early today. It turned out that Bai Mufan came back."

   "Yeah, obviously I didn't come to the literature department often some time ago, this is too real."

  Bai Mufan's complexion became a little subtle, and Xia Yan, who was sitting next to him, also heard something, couldn't help but blushed, and glared angrily at the two members with warning eyes.

  The two girls stuck out their tongues at her, smiled and said nothing.

  Xia regained her composure and was about to say something when she suddenly remembered something, closed her mouth again, and quietly took out her mobile phone to type.

   After a while, the phone in Bai Mufan's arms vibrated, and he took it out to see that it was a message from Xia Wen: "'Your Name' was a big success, mom is very grateful to you!"

  Bai Mufan raised his head and looked at Xia Fan who was sitting next to him in some doubts. Xia Fan was also looking at him, and immediately winked at him, then nodded his chin at the other people in the department room.

  Bai Mufan immediately understood that now that "Your Name" is so popular, it is really inconvenient to discuss this matter in front of other members. If he is exposed as the author, it may cause him a lot of trouble.

  Bai Mufan immediately typed a reply: "It's okay."

  Xia Fan started typing again after receiving the message, his slender fingers fluttered, and after a while, Bai Mufan received a new message.

  He looked down, and it was written: "Mom wants to invite you to dinner at home to express my gratitude to you. What do you think?"

Seemingly worried that Bai Mufan would refuse, Xia Fan immediately added: "After all, Afan, your novels are of great help to our Jiyan. The sales of these two issues have picked up, and online subscriptions have also surged. It can be said that it has brought us back to life. It’s no exaggeration, so my mother and I are very grateful to you.”

Bai Mufan thought for a while, and he was very kind, and it seemed that it was not good to refuse, so he replied: "I don't know what will happen now, let's talk about it after "Your Name" is completely over, if the response is good at that time, I will I'd be happy to come to your house for a meal."

Xia Yan received the message, and quickly opened it to take a look, and when he saw the content inside, he was relieved, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and typed: "Well, there must be no problem. "

   After that, the two of them quieted down separately, and Bai Mufan also enjoyed this rare tranquility. He took out an interesting novel from the bookshelf in the literature department, and read it leisurely.

  Everything pays attention to the combination of work and rest. Excessive use of the brain will reduce the learning efficiency, so the longer the learning time, the better.

Bai Mufan remembers a report that when students study, the first two or three hours are the most efficient time to absorb knowledge, and then it will gradually decrease. After eight or nine hours or even more than ten hours, the learning efficiency will drop It will be reduced to the lowest level, and the attention will be greatly distracted. It may not be as good as the first fifteen minutes of studying for an hour.

Bai Mufan's memory and brain have been optimized twice by the system, and there are actually signs of surpassing ordinary people. He can continue to study for a long time without getting tired. However, he still doesn't want to push himself too hard, so he can study comfortably as before. , It’s good to experience other pleasures in life at the same time, such as writing novels and live broadcasting, both of which are small pleasures in his life.

   Time passed, and soon it was five o'clock, and it was dusk outside the window.

  Bai Mufan looked at the time, packed up his things, said goodbye to Xia Fan, left the school with Liu Haoyu, and took the tram home.

   After getting off the tram, Bai Mufan walked slowly to the door of his house alone under the setting sun.

  He took out the key and was about to open the door, when he suddenly found a moving company's car parked at the door of the room next door to him, and several female employees were busy moving large boxes from the back of the truck into the house.

   "Did that family move away?" Bai Mufan was slightly puzzled, and secretly said, "And a new neighbor has moved in so soon."

   Originally living next door to him was a family of five, parents, grandparents, and a four- or five-year-old child underneath.

  This family is harmonious and has lived here for seven or eight years. The couple's job is stable, and the child also attends a nearby kindergarten. Usually, the two elderly people take turns to pick them up and drop them off. There is no reason or sign of moving out.

  But during the nearly ten days he went to Xiacheng this time, the family moved away quietly, so Bai Mufan felt strange.

  Bai Mufan didn't think much, shook his head and opened the door to enter the room.

  Since there is a new neighbor coming, after dinner, he will politely bring some gifts to visit and show his welcome.

  Bai Mufan put on clean home clothes, washed his hands, and spent about forty minutes to prepare two dishes and one soup.

  When you are at home alone, there is no need to cook too much, ordinary home-cooked food is fine.

  Bai Mufan served himself a bowl of rice, and was just about to sit down to eat when the doorbell rang.

  He was slightly taken aback, a little surprised: "Who will come at this time?"

  He put down the bowl and chopsticks, walked to the door with a puzzled face, and looked outside through the peephole, but there was no one outside.
