As a consequence of thinking too much at night, the Duan Jiayan tossed and turned until one or two in the morning before he finally fell asleep.

When he arrived at the classroom, Lu Xingci saw him yawn a few times. "Sleepy?"

The Duan Jiayan nodded.

Lu Xingci asked, "What did you do last night?"

He was just asking casually, but he didn't expect Duan Jiayan to suddenly turn his head and stare at him without blinking.

He stared at him for three or four seconds.

The Duan Jiayan had a guilty conscience and denied it. "Nothing."

He couldn't possibly tell the truth that he had been thinking about all sorts of things last night and couldn't sleep. In the end, he seemed to have had a dream about Lu Xingci.

Lu Xingci looked at him and smiled.

Although the Duan Jiayan was physically exhausted, today was his first day as a deskmate with Lu Xingci. The Duan Jiayan was very excited when he thought of this.

He looked at the class schedule. The first class was physics again.

He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to take it, so he took out a box of candy from his drawer and prepared to eat one when he was sleepy.

The Duan Jiayan ate the candy and held a pen in his hand.

At first, he was in a good state of mind. When the physics teacher talked about the first two multiple-choice questions, he roughly understood them.

When they started talking about the electric field question, he looked at the projected electromagnetic field and felt that his vision was blacked out.

Before he knew it, the Duan Jiayan had finished eating the candy and his pen had fallen on the desk.

His head gradually drooped.

Lu Xingci finished writing a series of calculations and glanced sideways. He saw that Duan Jiayan's head was lowered and he seemed to be about to fall asleep.

Lu Xingci reached out and patted him lightly on the arm.

The Duan Jiayan's consciousness returned when he was patted. He blinked hard and began to focus on the blackboard.

He whispered, "If I fall asleep again, pat me again."

Lu Xingci nodded.

After a question, Lu Xingci looked to the side.

The previously energetic person lowered his head again.

He hesitated for a moment, but still followed the Duan Jiayan's request and woke him up. The latter was caught off guard and instinctively glared at Lu Xingci fiercely.

Then, the Duan Jiayan realized what was going on. He felt that Lu Xingci was wronged by his glare. He asked in a fawning manner, "Lu Ge, aren't you sleepy in the morning?"

"I'm usually not."

"I don't want to be sleepy either," Duan Jiayan said as he picked up his pen. "I want to be as awesome as you."

Not long after he said this, Lu Xing heard the sound of a pen hitting the table while he was doing the math.

He looked to the side and saw that his new deskmate had already closed his eyes.

Duan Jiayan's eyes were dark, probably because he did not sleep well.

The contours of his side profile were very pleasing to the eye. His brows and nose bridge were exceptionally youthful.

His skin was almost translucent and fair under the bright classroom lights.

Lu Xingci watched as his head nodded slightly and his hand supported his chin in a daze. In the end, Lu Xingci couldn't help but smile.

His child seemed to be trying very hard not to fall asleep.

The Duan Jiayan was supporting himself with his arm and was about to fall over.

Lu Xingci reached out, supported his chin with his palm, and slowly dragged him onto the table.

The Duan Jiayan vaguely felt that someone was taking care of him. He lifted his eyelids and looked to the side in a daze.

"Go to sleep," he heard a promise to relax him. "I'll talk about it in this class. I'll teach you after class."
