Chen Yuan discovered that Tang Siwen's normal emotional value was 81, which was 5 to 6 points higher than the average.

Her emotional value also varied depending on the person she was facing.

This was very common.

For example, his deskmate, He Sijiao, had an emotional value of around 80 towards him, but only 75 towards the other boys in the class.

It wasn't that she hated men, she simply had a crush on me.

But I'm sorry, Jiaojiao, we can't be together.

Tang Siwen's emotional value also fluctuated a lot depending on the person. For a certain boy in the class, her emotional value was only 72. He didn't know what had happened between them.

But according to Chen Yuan's judgment, nothing probably had happened.

It was simply that this boy was a bit of a show-off, and the people in the class didn't really like him.

But a direct drop of almost ten points was still quite extreme.

This showed that Tang Siwen hated people showing off the most.

If you wanted to give her a good impression, you couldn't show off.

But can people really resist showing off?

That's difficult!

Chen Yuan wasn't trying to curry favor with girls, so there was no need to stop showing off because of Tang Siwen's preferences.

The reason he didn't show off in front of her was simply because he didn't like showing off, hmph.

"..." During the break, Chen Yuan held his pen and corrected a math problem. Suddenly, he felt a shadow. So, he slowly raised his head.

Then, he saw Tang Siwen, the only girl in the class with long, straight black hair, who was looking at him.

86.

Yes, her emotional value was different for everyone.

And for him, her normal state was 86.

Perhaps it was still because Chen Yuan had become her *bao* friend (steamed bun friend)…

"This is wrong." Tang Siwen put her finger on the problem and reminded him.

"..." Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, and quickly realized that there was indeed a problem. Immediately, he suddenly understood, "No wonder I couldn't figure it out after writing for so long, it was this."

Then, he changed the steps.

After a while, he wrote it out all at once.

Chen Yuan showed a smile.

Tang Siwen looked at Chen Yuan, who had solved the problem and smiled happily, and the corners of her mouth also turned up slightly.

Then, she walked away.

90.

She feels happy when she helps others?

"Are you two friends now?" He Sijiao muttered softly.

"Huh?" Chen Yuan didn't understand what little things He Sijiao was going to say.

"She's too aloof. The girls in the class don't really dare to play with her. She seems hard to get along with..." After He Sijiao finished her evaluation, she looked at Chen Yuan again and said, "Could it be that you often chat on QQ in private?"

"No." Chen Yuan shook his head and said, "You say that... I don't even have her QQ friend."

"Hiss, neither do I." He Sijiao also said.

"Indeed, there's no reason to add her as a friend." Chen Yuan analyzed.

"Then go add her as a friend." He Sijiao urged.

"Why?" Chen Yuan asked back.

"She's the class beauty, and maybe even the school beauty. She's also good at her studies. Don't you like her?" He Sijiao asked soulfully.

"Even so, should I like her?" Chen Yuan felt that He Sijiao was really enjoying the drama and even pairing them up.

"Yeah." At this time, Li Youyou, who was behind him, suddenly interjected, "Liking someone depends on feeling. You can't say you have to like someone just because they're pretty."

"That's fair." Chen Yuan very much agreed with this.

"Ah, I'm just saying." Seeing that these two were being serious, He Sijiao didn't say anything. However, how could the soul of gossip be extinguished just like that? She lowered her voice and continued, "But I feel like she definitely has a thing for you. Look, she doesn't talk to anyone else."

"Are you serious..."

"That's not necessarily true." Before Chen Yuan finished speaking, Li Youyou suddenly interrupted again.

But this time, after she finished speaking, the two of them looked at her together.

Suddenly, she felt a little embarrassed.

So, she lowered her head with a flushed face and quickly explained, "Never mind me. I, I'm a contrarian."

"You do like to argue..." He Sijiao nodded in agreement.

But Chen Yuan knew that she wasn't arguing.

She liked him.

The emotional value thing had already exposed her very thoroughly.

Honestly, Chen Yuan was quite happy when he found out.

It felt good to be liked, and Youyou was also nice...

But he didn't have that feeling.

So, he didn't deliberately try to raise it.

Moreover, he didn't want to give the other party any illusions, and tried to avoid saying anything that would cause misunderstandings.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to accept her, and Youyou would be sad.

"Anyway, I haven't seen her take the initiative to talk to anyone." He Sijiao still insisted on her deduction.

To this…

Chen Yuan didn't completely disagree.

But with Li Youyou as an example, Chen Yuan knew that the extent of Tang Siwen's liking for him shouldn't be considered love.

………

Chen Yuan really wanted to know his emotional value, but even if he kept looking in the mirror, he couldn't see it.

And without this reference, he couldn't understand himself.

These days, Chen Yuan and Tang Siwen didn't have much interaction. However, after she treated him to steamed buns and received very strong praise, Chen Yuan also offered to bring her steamed buns.

Her emotional value towards him had been raised to a normal 88.

Is this loving the *bao* (steamed bun) and the *bao* giver?

In short, seeing this value rising little by little, Chen Yuan was inexplicably looking forward to it.

He wanted to know how high it could go.

Caring about this matter, his eyes often drifted over there from time to time.

But he didn't see the highest.

He did see the lowest once.

And it was very, very low.

22.

That day, Auntie's Little A'Tai also had 24 after being crushed into a Teddy pancake.

In other words, she had encountered something more serious than the death of Little A'Tai.

After being called to the office by Lao Mo (Old Mo), she dropped to that number all of a sudden.

Her expression also changed from her usual aloofness to visible disappointment.

Although this detail was generally imperceptible, Chen Yuan, as a somewhat senior Tang-ologist, could distinguish it.

So... did Lao Mo do something to Tang Siwen?!

Ah, no, that can't be.

I shouldn't evaluate a highly decorated senior teacher like that.

So, did something happen at home?

But, if that were the case, she shouldn't be at school now.

In other words, it's something at home. But, it's not particularly urgent.

What is it?

Thinking this, Chen Yuan stayed like this until school was over.

Then, he saw her pack her schoolbag after the bell rang and leave the classroom, amidst everyone's puzzled gazes.

It seemed that she needed to deal with something.

The only bad things that Chen Yuan could think of that would require a teacher's notification, weren't too urgent, but still needed to be dealt with, should only be...

Divorce?

Perhaps.

Chen Yuan stood up, packed his schoolbag, and put it on his back, leaving the classroom.

Although he had the ability to see people's emotions, it didn't mean that Chen Yuan would pry into other people's hearts. He would definitely not mention anything that Tang Siwen didn't want to talk about.

In this way, he walked normally towards the bus station to go home.

But he found that Tang Siwen was standing next to the telephone pole next to the school gate, looking down, as if waiting for someone.

Until Chen Yuan walked next to her and stopped.

Tang Siwen slowly raised her head, looked at this classmate, and was stunned for a moment.

After the two paused for a while, Chen Yuan finally spoke, "You don't look very happy."

This sentence directly stunned Tang Siwen, who didn't react at all.

She originally thought that Chen Yuan would ask, why are you going home today, or, who are you waiting for here.

But unexpectedly, it was such a sentence.

Also, how could he tell that I wasn't happy?

From childhood to adulthood, no one had been able to see her unhappiness.

"..." Facing Chen Yuan's question, Tang Siwen felt a rush of grievance after being dazed. Her nose felt a little sore, and she bit her lip, holding back for a long time before nodding, "Yeah."

As soon as she spoke, her voice was crying.

19.

Her emotional value dropped to freezing point all of a sudden.

Tears were already falling from her eyes.

Chen Yuan hadn't even seen Tang Siwen's super happy smile, but he had seen her super sad cry...

She looked particularly sad.

It made the people who saw it feel a little sorry for her.

At this time, Chen Yuan took out a pack of tissues that had been opened and handed it to her.

"... Yeah, yeah." Tang Siwen borrowed the tissues, turned slightly, and wiped away her tears with the tissues.

Because she was crying a little sadly, she also blew her nose with the tissues.

A person with stable emotions, crying to this extent, was enough to show the blow that her parents' divorce had on her.

"Did you just find out about your parents..."

Before Chen Yuan could finish speaking, he suddenly realized that he had said too much.

Moreover, it hadn't been confirmed that it was a divorce yet.

"You, how did you know?" Tang Siwen, whose nose was a little red, asked in surprise.

It was confirmed.

But, how did I know!

"I..."

"Did you go to the homeroom teacher?"

After Chen Yuan paused, he said, "I ran into him when I left the classroom. He was probably worried about you, so he told me."

This explanation made sense.

I'm really a genius.

"But Teacher Mo wouldn't reveal student information."

But Tang Siwen was even smarter!

But her saying that meant that I took the initiative to find Old Mo...

This, this isn't like I'm caring about her?!

Looking at Tang Siwen, who was about to break down, Chen Yuan hesitated. Slowly, he opened his mouth and said, "I did run into Old Mo outside the classroom. I thought your state was really too bad, and you went home early, so I asked him..."

Although it was a little embarrassing to say this.

But Chen Yuan found that he wanted to care about her.

If he could see his own emotional value, he should have noticed this long ago.

Hearing this, Tang Siwen's emotional value suddenly rose from a dozen to 61.

Under such sad emotions, there could still be such fluctuations.

It seemed that his concern had been received by her.

That's good.

"I..." Tang Siwen looked at Chen Yuan, and after a long while, she slowly opened her mouth and said, "I, like them very much."

"Mom and Dad?" Chen Yuan asked.

"Yeah." Tang Siwen nodded, and said somewhat dejectedly, "I didn't think they would get divorced. Although they've been arguing, I never thought we would separate..."

Although Tang Siwen was already a high school student, she was only in middle school last year.

Plus, she was a bit dull in personality, so it was normal to feel stunned by such a realistic thing.

Chen Yuan thought of Yang Junlian and Old Chen getting divorced...

He really wouldn't cry so miserably.

Girls are just more fragile.

"Then you're going back now to?" Chen Yuan asked.

Tang Siwen had already stopped crying and was no longer sobbing. But when she spoke, her tone still retained sadness: "They're deciding who I'll go with..."

"Who do you want to go with?" Chen Yuan asked carefully.

"I like Dad a little more..." Tang Siwen turned her head to look to the side, and after a long silence, she said, "But Mom can't live without me."

Chen Yuan could hear that she had decided to go with her mother.

Even at this time, she was still considering her hurtful parents. This child was really too kind.

"They may have sharp contradictions that cannot be reconciled. Continuing to be together will only cause more harm." Looking at her, Chen Yuan comforted, "Even if you don't live together anymore, you can still see each other in the future. If you miss them, you can call."

For things that are bound to happen and cannot be changed, all you can do is self-dissolution.

Chen Yuan's words made Tang Siwen suddenly understand divorce.

Indeed, she thought that Mom and Dad should always be together.

But continuing this marriage would only cause mutual harm to them.

Continuing to maintain it might not be a good thing.

"You, you're very smart." Because of the other party's reasoned comfort, Tang Siwen praised.

"Ah, no, no." Chen Yuan raised his hand and quickly denied, "It's nothing, nothing."

"Then I, I'll take a taxi home now."

After doing a good job of psychological construction, Tang Siwen finally dared to face it.

"Are you here because you didn't want to go home?" Chen Yuan asked curiously.

"I..." Looking up at Chen Yuan, Tang Siwen hesitated. Finally, she nodded, "Yeah."

"Why don't you take a day off tomorrow and rest well at home." Chen Yuan suggested.

"Yeah, okay." Tang Siwen nodded and directly obeyed.

"Then if there are any notes tomorrow, I can take pictures for you..." Chen Yuan said, and then suddenly remembered, "I don't seem to have you as a friend yet."

Hearing this, Tang Siwen directly took out her phone. Then, she brought up her WeChat code and handed it to Chen Yuan: "Scan me."

Directly WeChat?

Chen Yuan didn't think much about it, and scanned Tang Siwen just like that.

In this way, they added each other as friends.

Then, the two greeted each other and parted ways.

Chen Yuan went to the bus station, and she went to the roadside to hail a taxi.

"Chen Yuan."

However, before he had taken a few steps, Chen Yuan was stopped by the other party.

Turning his head, he saw Tang Siwen casting a somewhat hesitant look.

"Yeah, what's up?" Chen Yuan smiled gently and softly.

Seeing him reveal such a rarely seen expression, Tang Siwen also opened her heart: "After I go back, can I call you?"
