"Isn't it fine as long as the grades don't drop?"
Zhou Fu's casual remark stunned Chen Yuan.
"If we get so wrapped up in this, how can we not get distracted?" Chen Yuan asked.
"If that's what you're worried about..." Zhou Fu replied after some thought, "I think we just need a reward and punishment system."
"Huh?"
Chen Yuan didn't quite understand.
Then, Zhou Fu gave an example: "Only when the grades improve can we get close. I can only come to you if your grades go up. If the grades drop, even for small tests, we both get punished... No kissing, no hugging."
This was particularly tough for Zhou Fu.
But if it could give Chen Yuan a sense of security, she was willing to try.
Her comment left them both speechless for a long time.
Finally, Chen Yuan spoke up: "What's the reward?"
"..." Zhou Fu was a bit thrown off by Chen Yuan's quick shift. Blushing, she reached out a hand, took his, and led him out of the bathroom...
