Chapter 43 - Two Grades Higher

Everyone shifted their attention to Shen Yu, which gave Emily a shock. She looked at Shen Yu with some confusion.

Emily hurriedly walked to Shen Yu’s side and called out carefully, “Brother?”

Could it be that Shen Yu did not like her studying?

Shen Yu frowned. He knew that he had accidentally frightened Emily, but seeing that Emily was happy to be able to study with Shen Nan, he was very unhappy.

Shen Nan seemed to have thought of something and immediately said, “Fifth Brother? Are you unhappy because Millie is going to school?”

After hearing Shen Nan’s words, Emily became even more worried. Could it be that Shen Yu really did not want her to go to school? But she really wanted to go to school.

“Don’t listen to his nonsense. Why wouldn’t your brother be happy if you go to school?”

Shen Yu immediately glared at Shen Nan, motioning for Shen Nan not to spout nonsense.

Emily’s emotions came and went quickly. When she heard that Shen Yu did not forbid her from going to study, she was instantly happy. She held Shen Yu’s hand and said coquettishly, “I knew Brother was the best.”

Shen Nan felt that Shen Yu was really a little inexplicable just now, so he asked shamelessly, “That’s strange. Then why were you so angry just now?”

Perhaps because he had been too close to Emily during this period of time, Shen Nan and Shen Yu had spent more time together. Shen Nan was less and less afraid of Shen Yu now.

Shen Yu was even more displeased when Shen Nan brought it up.

“No? Then it means that Millie has studied books, but you don’t.”

Shen Nan looked at Shen Yu, touched his chin, and pretended to speak in a profound manner.

“Brother, don’t you read?”

Emily was puzzled at first, but then she instantly began to worship him.

Shen Yu was already so smart even if he didn’t study. What would happen if he study?

“Little Millie, what’s with that look? He doesn’t read, but you still worship him?”

Shen Nan couldn’t stand it. Worship was worship, but was it so blind?

Shen Yu instantly felt a little awkward. He coughed lightly to cover up his awkwardness. Was he going to tell Emily that he really didn’t study?

Shen Yu felt that he could not say it out loud.

“Don’t listen to Kid Nan’s nonsense. Xiao Yu is a smart kid. Previously, he was suspended from school for a period of time because of his health. Now that school has started, he can go to school with you guys. Let me calculate. Xiao Yu should be two grades higher than you guys.”

A glimmer of light flashed in Old Lady Shen’s eyes. Yesterday, she had discussed this topic with Shen Yan. This opportunity had actually come to her so quickly.

Shen Yu looked at Old Lady Shen with some dissatisfaction. What did she mean by two grades higher? He wanted to be in the same class as Millie.

However, when he saw the adoration in Emily’s eyes, he could only bite the bullet and nod his head.

Could it be that he wanted to be demoted by two grades to be in the same class as Emily and Shen Nan?

“Wow, Brother, you’re really amazing. I heard from my sister in the village that some people will be demoted when they leave school due to illness. Brother, you actually didn’t demote. You’re really amazing.”

A black line flashed across Shen Yu’s face. Now if he told Emily that he actually wanted to demote, and that he wanted to demote by two levels in a row, would Emily take back her words of praise?

The smile on Old Lady Shen’s face deepened. Seeing that Shen Yu was defeated, Old Lady Shen laughed even more happily in her heart.

Emily was really entering her heart more and more. She reached out and touched Emily’s hair.

“Our Millie really knows how to praise people. Your Fifth Brother is the smartest. Don’t think that he didn’t go to school recently, but there’s no need to worry about his studies.”

Shen Yu was even more displeased. He wanted to glare at Old Lady Shen, but thinking that Old Lady Shen was an elder, he didn’t dare. He could only swallow his anger. It was neither up nor down, and it made him feel even worse.

Emily did not notice Shen Yu’s reaction at all. When she heard Old Lady Shen’s words, she looked at Shen Yu with admiration. Then, she looked at Old Lady Shen.

“Really? Then when the time comes, if I don’t know anything, I can look for Brother to help me. I’m very stupid.”

Emily touched her head in embarrassment. Then, she looked at Shen Yu with hope in her eyes.

“Don’t worry, what doesn’t Emi know? I’ll teach you then.”

Shen Yu subconsciously sat up straight and instantly forgot about wanting to be in the same class as Emily. He had already enjoyed the adoring look in Emily’s eyes just now.

“Don’t worry, if Millie has anything she doesn’t know, just ask your Fifth Brother. He’s two grades higher than you. Your Fifth Brother knows everything you learn.”
