Chapter 7 Science is so fascinating

There were some awkward scenes at the beginning of the dinner. Barry first said: "This is a good idea, but study comes first."

Peggy followed: "Dating in high school will indeed effectively reduce the efficiency of study. You made the right choice."

Erica couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, what's the point of studying, but seeing Locke's righteous face, she felt that she should choose to forgive him.

Locke's speech just now was just to show his attitude at the beginning. With mature ideas, he quickly changed the topic and complimented Barry and Linda calmly.

The two soon felt that Locke not only looked very comfortable, but also thought that Locke was mature, stable and sincere. Linda even repeatedly expressed that Locke should take more care of the nine-year-old Peggy at school.

"It is actually an honor for me to study with a super genius." Locke said with a smile: "Peggy's views in many aspects have given me a lot of inspiration."

"That's great. I'm glad to see you get along so well."

Barry and Linda were very satisfied with Locke's statement, which was the main reason why they wanted to invite Locke to their home for dinner.

Although Peggy is a super genius, she is only nine years old. They are also worried that Peggy will be bullied in high school.

He bowed and begged coquettishly, and a flash of white snow suddenly bloomed in front of Locke's eyes, making Locke's gaze linger for a few seconds.

Seeing Locke raising his hand first, he pointed at Locke, smiled slightly and said: "Locke, tell me."

"So you know, the school values ​​her very much, so just don't provoke her."

Locke wasn't sure whether she was just pretending, but after thinking that Peggy was just a nine-year-old girl, she shouldn't have too much scheming, not to mention that the other party was a big gold mine, so he decided to get along well with her.

"I can't help it. The principal told me that she is a valuable asset to the school, and her parents asked me to help take care of her." Locke patted Lip on the shoulder: "You don't have to worry, she's just a little girl."

"Very good, I have decided to officially join the Mathematical Olympiad competition team. You should be able to give me some pointers."

Locke nodded and was ready to say hello. Unexpectedly, the little girl came to the cafeteria with the two of them. After the two of them prepared their meals, she sat across from them with the lunch prepared by Linda.

According to him, this will drastically reduce his chances of dating girls in school, although so far in his high school career, the number of girls he has dated is zero.

"Has any classmates answered this question?" In the chemistry class, the teacher looked around the students and started to ask questions.

"Why?" Mandy's face was full of disappointment, but she still didn't give up: "If you are worried, I can help you pay for the prom tickets and costumes."

"not yet."

"It's a pleasure to study mathematics with you." Peggy seemed very happy.

"She is not an ordinary little girl. According to the information I heard, in order for her to enroll, the school not only gave her scholarships and grants, but also promised to provide her with a bonus when she is ready to go to college."

In the United States, people advocate showing off one's sharpness, but there is no such thing as being modest and hiding one's weaknesses. In college entrance examination scores, ordinary scores also account for a large proportion, and among ordinary scores, classroom performance will also have an intuitive impact in the teacher's scoring.

reflect.

When school was over yesterday, Linda heard Peggy talk about Locke. Knowing that Locke was also a super genius, she wanted to see Locke and ask him to take care of Peggy when necessary.

"How about joining with me?" Mandy smiled sweetly: "I don't have a dance partner now, so please!"

"Of course, come to the activity room after school in the afternoon and I will prepare the form for you to join the club."

"I remember someone promised my mother yesterday that she would take good care of me at school." Peggy didn't pay attention to Lip, but just looked at Locke.

Those who have money at home have contacted private customs early. Many girls with insufficient assets will prepare months in advance for these two dances, earning money for tickets and renting dresses through part-time jobs and other methods.

Make a stunning appearance at the dance.

"Hello." Locke glanced at Mandy, who was blushing: "What's the matter?"

Locke feels like she has some toothache. She won't have to have lunch with him every day from now on. If this is really the case, I don't know how the school gossip will spread next.

Locke had no reason to refuse. Having a super genius study with him would also be of great benefit in improving learning efficiency. Besides, he also guessed that Peggy might trigger more tasks.

In the corner of the classroom, Mandy, a white girl with a blond ponytail and a delicate and innocent face, bit her lip and looked at Locke talking there with watery eyes.

"I'm not short of money for tickets and dresses, but I still have homework to complete." Locke raised the notes in his hand, which were filled with various numbers and mathematical formulas, and let Mandy, who is a bad student in mathematics, read them.

I feel dizzy at first glance.

Students have their own small circles of twos and threes, and they usually sit together during lunch. According to American parlance, they are lunch gangs.

Locke talks freely.

In order to compete for the title of king and queen of the prom, boys and girls who are slightly famous in school will believe in intrigues to expand their fame or suppress their opponents.

"Okay, this question is very simple. You only need to consider the chemical properties..."

Locke didn't say much. Getting close to Peggy was indeed a challenge for his high school plans, but he was now considering how to use Peggy to trigger more tasks. As long as the rewards were enough, those troubles would not be troubles.

On the second day, after class ended, Locke and Lip went to the cafeteria as usual, but they met Peggy on the way.

"Locke, have you decided who you want to be your partner at the homecoming dance?"

Some contestants with more than 100 million talents directly use various gifts to canvass votes, because the king and queen are voted by all the students attending the dance. To a certain extent, it is a smaller version of the American election campaign.

"Hi, Locke." After class, Mandy couldn't help but come over to see Locke packing his schoolbag.

He felt a headache in his heart, but he couldn't scold a little girl directly. He could only say: "Don't worry, Linda and Barry are also my friends. I have promised them to take care of you. If you have any problems in school, it will be fine."

Ask me."

Mandy, who had been paying attention to Locke, had a sweeter smile on her face, but then she heard Locke say: "Actually, I have no plans to attend the homecoming dance."

After lunch, after Peggy left, Lip couldn't help but ask: "You don't really plan to let her join us?"

The homecoming dance and the annual graduation prom are the two most important dances for American students!

In order to participate in the dance, boys will prepare formal attire, and girls will also carefully prepare dresses. At the same time, if you want to join the dance, you have to pay a ticket worth tens of yuan to qualify for admission.

Locke often sat with Lip during lunch, and sometimes people from the Mathematical Olympiad team would join in, but Lip was absolutely unwilling to let a little girl join in.

As the teacher's applause rang out, the girl trembled all over, lying on the desk panting and murmuring: "Science is really fascinating, I can't wait for the weekend to come..."

In Locke's eyes, Peggy is a shining gold mine of potential.

"Why are you sitting here again?" Lip's tone was very bad, but Locke could tell that he was a little worried about Peggy. After all, the Mathematical Olympiad showdown between Peggy and Locke the day before made Lip understand that he and Peggy were in a relationship.

gaps in knowledge.

Both parties achieved their goals, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves for a while. As expected, the world of adults is all about human relations and sophistication.

"Girls this age are troublesome, and it seems like she has her sights set on you."

"The homecoming dance is very important. I can rent a Cadillac and we will be the king and queen of the dance." Mandy said.

"It sounds great, but it won't make me rich."

"Are these things enough? That's just homework."

Locke smiled and said nothing.
