Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 624 Alexander, Help Me

“Elise.” Alexander’s expression suddenly became serious, and he asked, “Can I… kiss you?”

Elise’s face flushed, then she lowered her head and murmured, “You said I was your wife just now, so if

you want to kiss me…”

“Oh, right. I’ve just gotten used to saying it.” He smiled, turning his eyes into crescents as he did so

before he leaned over and kissed her lightly on the corner of her lips.

It was just a kiss, but all the speculation and the insecurity in her heart had vanished.

She wrapped her arms around his neck so that he could not step back.

“You haven’t said whether you will meet him or not.” Elise sighed and said in a frustrated manner, “I really

can’t handle someone like him, so you have to help me deal with him.”

“Really?” He rested his hand on her arm. “You’re so smart, and yet you can’t do anything about him?”

She sighed helplessly, let go of him, and sat back. “That’s right. Kenneth is a very interesting person. He

made me owe him a huge favor without saying anything, and he has always shown me goodwill from

time to time…” She paused when she said this before she turned her head and said seriously,

“Alexander, I’m not a saint. I may not be tempted when there is such a person who asks nothing from me

and is always good to me, but I really can’t be indifferent to them. However, I do not wish to love

someone else that isn’t you. We are husband and wife, so can you help me with this?”

“Okay.” Alexander held her hand again and patted it soothingly. “I’ll meet him whenever you want me to.”

“Thank you for being so good to me,” Elise said.

He teased, “Is this the only time I’m good to you?”

“Of course you’ve always been this good. The man I love is someone I’m proud to be with,” she boasted.

Alexander laughed. “Are you sure you’re complimenting me or yourself?”

“Hehe. I will praise you when I get home!”

“Hm? Is it the kind of compliment that I’m thinking about?”

Elise immediately said, “No!”

“But I haven’t said what it is yet.””

She just ignored him.

…

Another morning passed by.

Elise stood up and walked out as soon as the bell rang, refusing to give Mason a chance to nag at her.

In the end, he still called her to a stop. “Ms. Elise Sinclair, Mr. Elliot Howard, and Mr. Sheldon Keller, the

three of you, please stay behind.”

The three people whom Mason named wore the same expressions. Their faces drooped, and there was

a look of hopelessness on their faces as if they had nothing left to live for.

“Mr. Young, you aren’t planning to sentence us to detention like we’re elementary students, right?” Elliot

questioned as he knew Mason very well, and there were no rules for speaking up.

Mason rolled his eyes at Elliot. “Young fellow, I am giving you special attention here. How could you

show such dissatisfaction? After all, I have to stay here after class with you too, you know? So, quit

whining like a baby. Don’t think I won’t inform your parents!”

“I’m not three anymore, so why would you go looking for my parents…” Elliot muttered to himself.

Mason ignored him and continued to ask, “Have you read the exercise set that I gave you?”

“No, I didn’t have the time,” Elliot told him honestly.

Immediately, Mason smacked the rolled-up test paper on his head. “Of course, you don’t have the time.

You have to go to class, sleep, and still have to squeeze out some time to play games, don’t you? Even

the principal is not as busy as you are.”

“Well…” Elliot scratched the back of his head and smiled cheekily.

Sheldon, who had not spoken for a while, suddenly became serious. “I read a little, but I don’t

understand it very well. However, my tutor is giving me a supplementary lesson, and I will catch up with

the syllabus, so Mr. Young, you don’t have to worry about me.”

Elliot inhaled sharply and put the back of his hand on Sheldon’s forehead. “Let me check. You don’t have

a fever, though. Are you alright?”

“F*ck off!” Sheldon smacked his hand off. “I want to actually put in effort into my studies now. Can’t I do

that?”

“Oh, please! Cut the bullsh*t. It’s not funny at all.” Elliot nudged him. After he spoke, he finally noticed

Sheldon’s solemn expression and asked, “Wait… Are you serious?”

“Yes,” Sheldon said gravely. “I’m serious. In order to do well in game development, I must first become

an excellent technician. If I can’t achieve that, then how can I learn the skill sets I need in the future?”

Elliot didn’t know what to say in response, but he suddenly felt that Sheldon seemed to be different, but

he couldn’t tell what had changed.

Mason was delighted by his attitude. “It looks like you can be taught after all. You are all smart children,

and as long as you are willing to learn, it is never too late.”

“Mr. Young, I think you’re right.” Elise said thoughtfully, “But Sheldon and Elliot have a poorer foundation

than me, so you can just give them a supplementary lesson today, and I’ll leave first, okay? Bye!”

After saying that, she immediately turned around to leave without waiting for a dismissal by Mr. Young.

“Wait, wait, wait. Wait a minute…” Mason held her back. “Kid, you usually seem quiet, but why are you

always so frantic? I have taught thousands of students throughout my career. Do you really think I can’t

handle the three of you? Be good and stay here for revisions, and you can ask me directly if you have

any questions. You don’t need to feel shy.”

She didn’t know how to get out of the situation. “But Mr. Young, I’m really not shy…”

“That’s perfect then. Now, just go back to your seat, and let’s get started!” Mason said with a smile.

She initially wanted to ask Sheldon and Elliot for help, but Sheldon sat back in his seat without saying a

word. Elliot always looked up to him, so he sat back without making a fuss as well.

Elise tightly knitted her brows as she had an appointment with Kenneth and Alexander later on. She was

not afraid of there being a conflict between the two when they met, but she had some doubts in her heart

that she had to confirm in person.

As she looked around for an idea, she finally came up with a plan. She walked to Sheldon, picked up the

pile of materials that weighed a ton, and then read ten lines at a glance.

Mason nodded in satisfaction. The three of them had good attitudes, so he felt that Martin’s evaluation of

them was false.

After observing them for two minutes, he felt a little thirsty, so he turned and walked toward the podium,

ready to take a sip of water.

As soon as he turned around, Elise stopped him.

“Mr. Young, your answer to this question is wrong.”

“What?” Mason hurriedly walked over, bent his upper body, and leaned in to read the question Elise

pointed to.

That was a classic particle mechanics problem, which required one to calculate the tangential

acceleration and the normal acceleration. Mason’s answer was thirteen, but the correct answer should

be twenty-three.

The problem was in the calculation of the last portion of calculus in the solution. Mason’s logic was right,

but perhaps there were errors in the calculation because of his age. Mathematical errors in physics were

not easy to find, but it was also the most prone to mistakes.

“No, that’s the right answer.” Mason looked at the notes above. Every formula and step that he should

use were correct, and there should be no problem with the answer.

“Your calculus is wrong. You should integrate all the previous content first and then head to the last step.

Moreover, you didn’t do it right after adding and subtracting,” Elise said calmly.

“Is that so…” Mason pushed his glasses up, stared at the question, and began to calculate in his mind.

Elise snickered sneakily and asked, “Then, Mr. Young, since you’re busy checking the math, can I take

my leave? I have an important appointment to get to.”

“Fine, you can go.” Mason was busy checking his calculations, so he waved his hand and dismissed her.

“Thank you, sir. Goodbye, sir!”

She was like a rabbit and hopped out of the classroom immediately after speaking.

Martin witnessed this scene.
