Chapter 65

th meat and a bowl of meat congee. After eating, her stomach was full.At that time, the steamed buns at the state-owned hotel were full of meaty aroma. They didn't have the flavor of farmed pigs like...The two of them went back and forth to the cowshed.

The atmosphere was awkward for a moment, and I didn't know what to say.

Ning Yuan simply got up and went to wash herself: "I'll go take a cool shower first."

She ran to take a cold shower, holding her clothes.

Rong Zhaonan looked at her back, twitched the corner of his lips, and got up to take the food from the table.

By the time Ning Yuan came out after her cool shower, she saw Rong Zhaonan eating. She wiped her hair as she wondered, "Didn't you have dinner"

Rong Zhaonan picked up his bowl and shoved all the dishes into it at random: "Hmm, I haven't eaten."

Ning Yuan sat down awkwardly, "I was really surprised by the old woman's sudden request for me to go and become her disciple. I didn't have time to tell you, and I'm sorry I delayed your meal."

Now that I think about it, the old woman suddenly ran over to ask her for something. Actually, she must have already discussed taking her as a student with Grandpa Tang before.

Rongshenghou paused his hand that held the bowl, "It's alright, Summer Granny is just like that."

He tugged at the corner of his lips: "You don't have to be so polite with me, it's not like you."

Ning Yuan was taken aback and muttered, "Are you sarcastically mocking me I'm always polite and courteous to others, unless they are impolite or disrespectful to me first."

Rong Zhaonan chuckled softly, a glint in his eyes behind the lens: "Very good. Keep it up."

Ning Yuan: "You're speaking with such a commanding tone..."

Okay, she did become a high-ranking leader later on.

She moved aside, facing the window and combing her hair. She gave a light cough: "That...from now on, no matter what Grandma Xia says, just go along with it. Don't argue with her."

The night wind blew in, carrying the scent of plants, passing over Ning Yuan's damp hair as wet as seaweed.

Her teenage girl's scent of fresh, clean musk after a bath wafted into Rong Zhaonan's nostrils.

Rong Zhaonan looked at her back and suddenly became distracted: "Well, you're talking about contraception"

"Ning Yuan blushed slightly, and quickly said, "Yes, but Grandma and Grandpa don't know. In the future, no matter what she says, you don't need to argue. We haven't done anything wrong, we are just business partners."

Rong Zhaonan lowered his long lashes, inexplicably feeling a bit agitated. “Hmm, I wasn't doing anything.”

He suddenly stood up and went out of the house with a bowl in his hand.

As he was speaking, the man suddenly stopped and walked away without a word, holding his bowl. Ning Yuan was a little confused.

"What's wrong What is this" she wondered, how could this person be so fickle

Maybe that's just how bigwigs are, their minds are unreadable.

......

In the following days, Ning Yuan went to Lao Tang's place almost six days a week for review.

Although Mr. Tang is a new-style person who has studied abroad, his teaching style is still somewhat old-fashioned.

Even if Ning Yuan daydreams in class or doesn't study well, he likes to hit his palm with a small ruler.

However, the old man wasn't too heavy-handed. Ning Yuan gritted her teeth and endured it, but in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, she really fell behind too much.

Her palm was swollen from all the stress. She spent her days farming and cramming formulas, barely scraping by on weekly quizzes that hovered between passing and failing, with little progress to show for it.

She's lagging far behind in her language, politics, and history.

Even Tang Lao was quite helpless.

He spent two or three months tutoring Ning Yuan, and even though it was almost New Year's, she managed to score 70 points on her English exam despite not having studied much. She only barely passed in the science subjects.

Only then did the old man slowly accept that he had taught a science failure. He could only give up physics and chemistry, and focus on mathematics. At least this required subject couldn't be too bad.

I'm not good at all subjects. I can't help it.

Ning Yuan works hard during the day and puts in overtime at night to study. She has dark circles under her eyes every day.

On Sunday, she would still find a chance to go into town to bring pork and game that Rong Zhaonan had caught in the mountains to Zhang Er at the county guesthouse.rds were executed for their greed."Don't worry, your grandmother still has a few things hidden away." Mr. Tang stated.Summer Auntie is unreliable, only when Grandpa Tang speaks does Ning Yuan feel at...
