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 believed that Locke was mature, stable and sincere. Linda even repeatedly expressed that Locke should take more care of the nine-year-old Peggy in school.

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

"That's great, it's nice to see you guys getting 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, and they will also worry that Peggy will be bullied in high school.

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.

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

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

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

The next day, after class ended, Locke and Lip went to the cafeteria as usual, but they met Peggy halfway.

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

"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.

"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.

Locke felt that she had some toothache. She wouldn't have to have lunch with her every day in the future. If that was the case, she didn't know how the gossip in the school would spread next.

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's okay." ask me."

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

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

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

Locke wasn't sure whether she was just pretending, but after thinking that Peggy was just a nine-year-old girl, she probably wouldn'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.

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

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 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.

According to him, this would drastically reduce his chances of dating girls in school, although so far in his high school career, he has had zero dates with girls.

"No way, the principal told me that she is a valuable asset to the school, and his parents also 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."

"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."

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

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

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.

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

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

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

Locke talks.

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

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

As the teacher's applause sounded, 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..."

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

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

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

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

In order to participate in the prom, boys will prepare formal attire, and girls will also prepare formal dresses carefully. If they want to join the prom, they have to pay a ticket worth tens of yuan to qualify for admission.

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.

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

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.

"not yet."

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

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

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."

"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."

"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. Just one look made me feel dizzy.

"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's not going to make me rich."

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

Locke smiled and said nothing.
