However, searching for teaching materials was not an easy task. The rural areas were underdeveloped, and information flow was restricted. When the city reinstated the college entrance examination, it took another two years for people in rural areas to gradually start participating. The delay in information hindered the educational progress in rural areas compared to urban areas.

Considering the challenges involved in taking the college entrance examination, Ye Ling’s thoughts were still in the preliminary stage. She hadn’t fully made up her mind.

However, as she gazed at the high school textbooks before her, her eyes brightened, and her determination grew stronger.

She had initially assumed that finding teaching materials would be difficult, yet she unexpectedly found high school textbooks at Auntie Sun’s house.

Were these textbooks Min Nan’s, Wan Hai’s, or Wan Feng’s? She wondered if she could borrow them to take a look…

As various thoughts raced through Ye Ling’s mind, someone entered the room. Ye Ling looked up and saw Min Nan with a perplexed expression. She quickly waved at Min Nan and inquired, “Big Brother Min Nan, are these high school textbooks yours?”

Observing the books in Ye Ling’s hands, Min Nan’s mind instantly flashed back to the repulsive events involving Liu Lin earlier in the day, causing his expression to darken.

“Consider them mine,” Min Nan responded with a somber tone.

Ye Ling hesitated for a moment. Why did it feel like Min Nan wasn’t very pleased? Could it be that he was upset about her touching his books?

With this thought in mind, Ye Ling refrained from mentioning borrowing the books any further.

She bit her lip, contemplating her options. Ultimately, she decided that her tuture was more important. Summoning her courage, she spoke, “In that case, Big Brother Min Nan, could you lend me these books for a few days? Don’t worry, I’ll return them to you promptly. I just want to take a look.”

Min Nan’s expression grew darker at her words, and he responded, “I’m afraid that won’t be possible. These books…”

Min Nan wanted to throw these books away immediately. When he thought about how those books had been touched by that disgusting woman, Liu Lin, he felt that these books were an eyesore, so there was no way he would lend them to Ye Ling.

However, Min Nan realized that his tone was a little stiff, so he added, “If you’re interested in high school textbooks, I’ll help you find them in the future.”

Upon hearing Min Nan’s words, Ye Ling couldn’t help but feel a sense of disappointment.

Since these books were Min Nan’s, why couldn’t he lend them to her?

In Ye Ling’s view, Min Nan’s promise to help her find the textbooks seemed like an excuse. He probably didn’t want to lend her the books and used that statement to spare her feelings.

Setting the books down, Ye Ling mustered a strained smile. “It’s okay, Big Brother Min Nan. You don’t need to go out of your way to help me find textbooks. I was just mentioning it casually. It’s getting late now, so I’ll head inside and rest. See you tomorrow!”

After her words, Ye Ling turned and retreated into her room, leaving Min Nan with a fleeting glimpse of her petite figure.

Min Nan paused, feeling that Ye Ling’s demeanor seemed off.

Was it because of his tone earlier? But hadn’t he already explained himself? He had assured her that he would find the textbooks for her. Could it be that she misunderstood him?

Min Nan experienced a mix of self-blame and urgency.

While he could tolerate others’ misconceptions about him, the idea that Ye Ling had misunderstood him and was distressed because of his words was unbearable. He felt the urge to give himself a couple of punches.

As Ye Ling entered her room and closed the door, she leaned against it, sorting out her emotions.

In reality, she had already regretted her actions when she turned back to her room. Her display of grievance was too evident. What was she doing? Was she throwing a tantrum at Min Nan?

After all, Min Nan was her benefactor. He had helped her numerous times and had been exceedingly kind. Was she dissatisfied just because he didn’t agree with her this one time? Oh, Ye Ling, how could you be like this?

Ye Ling regained her composure, feeling ashamed. She realized that she shouldn’t take Min Nan’s kindness for granted. She shouldn’t let herself become “spoiled” by Min Nan.

As Ye Ling lay on her bed, she felt a tinge of regret and annoyance. She tossed and turned for over ten minutes but couldn’t fall asleep.

In another room, Min Nan also struggled to sleep. Ye Ling was upset. What should he do?

Considering Ye Ling’s personality, she wouldn’t overtly express her inner feelings. She would likely interact normally the next day. However, Min Nan couldn’t tolerate any distance between them. It wasnt about his obsession, but rather his fear of Ye Ling growing distant due to this incident.

Their relationship had finally gotten a little closer.. How could he let her continue to stay away from him?
