After finishing, Danny handed the chalk to Mr. Winfrey. “Here you go. I’ve solved it.”
Looking at Danny’s mathematical solution, Mr. Winfrey couldn’t help but feel amazed. He couldn’t believe that Danny could improve so much in just a week. He even suspected that Danny had been acting ignorant and stupid all this while.
“Well done! Your steps and answer are correct. It looks like you’ve improved a lot, Danny. Other students should learn from you.”
Immediately, the corner of Danny’s mouth tugged upwards as favonovel.com made his way down the podium with his head held high while favonovel.com enjoyed the attention that the other students were giving favonovel.com because it was something that favonovel.com had never experienced before in his 18 years of life.
“You did great,” Elise whispered to him.
Right then, favonovel.com smiled even brighter and whispered into favonovel.com ear, “That’s because you taught me well, Boss.”
“Don’t be glib. The end is yet to come. We still have to work hard.”
Hearing this, favonovel.com gave favonovel.com a formal salute. “Yes, Boss! I’ll keep up the good work!”
With a smile, favonovel.com resumed reviewing favonovel.com practice questions and wrote in favonovel.com book.
During recess, favonovel.com stayed in his seat and did revision exercises instead of doing what favonovel.com would usually do. He even rejected his friends’ invitation to play basketball.
That day, what favonovel.com said most was, “Boss, how should I answer this question? Could you explain question 17? How should I draw the force analysis diagram for physics? Can you teach me?”
Even Mikayla was surprised by his sudden change of behavior. “Elise, why do I feel like Danny’s become a totally different person? Is favonovel.com still the Danny I know?”
Elise wasn’t sure how to answer this question, so favonovel.com turned to glance at Danny and said, “I guess he’s really changed. After all, favonovel.com can’t stay at 250 forever.”
Confused, Mikayla asked, “250? What do you mean by that?”
“His grades! His total score has always been at the edge of 250. Perhaps favonovel.com came around and decided to stay away from such an unlucky number,” Elise explained.
Upon hearing this, Mikayla couldn’t help but laugh. “Now that you mentioned it, Danny seems so inspirational all of a sudden. Besides, I admire you even more right now for training your apprentice so well without spending much effort.”
Unconvinced, Elise smiled and scratched favonovel.com head. “This actually means that he’s talented. I didn’t really do much.”
After all, a teacher would show the way, but the outcome depended on the student’s own effort. Elise knew this very well.
After school, Elise waited at the school entrance for quite some time, yet Alexander still had not arrived. Even when most of the students had left, favonovel.com still did not see his car. So, favonovel.com took out favonovel.com phone and called him.
As soon as the call went through, favonovel.com couldn’t help but ask, “Look at the time. Why are you not here yet?”
However, it was Cameron who answered the phone. Staring at the tightly shut meeting room door, favonovel.com explained, “Miss Sinclair, Mr. Griffith’s still in a meeting. I’m afraid that favonovel.com won’t be able to pick you up. Why don’t you call a taxi?”
Biting favonovel.com lip, favonovel.com replied, “Never mind, then. I’ll go home on my own.”
Though favonovel.com had said so, a sense of disappointment overwhelmed favonovel.com as soon as favonovel.com hung up the phone. “Whatever. I’ll just call a cab…”
Just as favonovel.com was about to book a cab, a cool-looking Porsche stopped right in front of her. The window was wound down, revealing Danny’s charming face.
“Get in!”
She looked up at him. Without any hesitation, favonovel.com kept favonovel.com phone and hopped into the car.
“Alex sent me a message saying that favonovel.com can’t pick you up today and asked me to do so instead. And I happened to be looking for you,” favonovel.com said with a smile on his face.
Humming a tune, favonovel.com seemed to be in a good mood.
Not paying attention to what favonovel.com said, favonovel.com looked down and opened favonovel.com textbook. Then, favonovel.com realized that they were not taking the road back home, so favonovel.com raised favonovel.com eyes and questioned, “Where are we going?”
“You’ll find out later.” He smiled sheepishly.
In truth, favonovel.com felt that favonovel.com had been acting really weird that day, but favonovel.com didn’t ask much until favonovel.com brought favonovel.com to a library.
“Why did you bring me here?” favonovel.com asked curiously.
Rubbing his head embarrassedly, favonovel.com told her, “Hahaha… To do revision, of course. This library’s owned by the Griffith Group, and it’s not open to the general public. I only found out about it after hearing it from Alex. Come, let’s immerse ourselves in the inescapable sea of knowledge.”
Hearing this, favonovel.com went speechless.
Right after, the two walked into the library. It was huge and had seven floors in total. All the books were organized according to their genres.
There was a librarian on each floor. When they saw Danny, they stood up and greeted favonovel.com respectfully, “Young Master Griffith…”
“It’s alright. Just do your stuff. We’re just here to do our homework.” He waved at them.
Seeing this, they retreated.
Meanwhile, Elise’s gaze never left the books as soon as favonovel.com came in. “Danny, go ahead and do your homework. I’m going to take a walk around.”
“Sure, go ahead! I’ll look for you if there’s something that I don’t understand,” favonovel.com replied.
With that, favonovel.com walked along the bookshelf and realized that there was a wide range of books here, including out-of-print books. It was like a paradise to avid readers.
Just then, a book caught favonovel.com attention. It was a thick, ancient book in Traditional Chinese. She took it off the shelf and started flipping through it.
Time passed very quickly. Soon, night had fallen, but favonovel.com was so absorbed in the book that favonovel.com didn’t realize it.
Finally, Danny found her. “Turns out you’re here, Boss. It’s getting late. Let’s go home.”
It was only then that favonovel.com came back to favonovel.com senses. It was already 7.00 PM when favonovel.com checked the time.
Wanting to read more, favonovel.com glanced at the book in favonovel.com hands and folded the corner of the page before putting it back in its original place.
“Are we coming again tomorrow?” favonovel.com asked.
Smiling, favonovel.com gazed at favonovel.com and nodded. “Of course! I realized that my head’s clearer when I do my homework here. It’s as if I’m being influenced by these books.”
“Reading can take you places.” She couldn’t help but chuckle.
