It is wonderful to be young.

After a moment, Lin Pingping took her eyes away, walking forward absentmindedly. She didn’t even realize she had bumped into someone. “Aunt, are you alright?”

Only then did Lin Pingping react. “I’m fine.”

The young man who was bumped didn’t say much. He carried a book in his hand and kept walking forward.

He stopped in front of the “Sour Fish Noodle Restaurant”.

A middle-aged lady came out with a smile. “I’m sorry, young man, we’re closed now. We will be open at 2:30 in the afternoon.”

The young man responded. “Aunt, I am here to find Ni Yang. Is she here?”

The middle-aged woman nodded, “Oh, you’re looking for Yangyang. Hang on, I’ll call her for you.”

As Zhou Qingshang spoke, she walked towards the kitchen.

In a moment, Ni Yang came out. Upon seeing the young man, she paused before saying, “Li Wei?”

Indeed, it was Li Wei.

Having seen Ni Yang on the street last night, Li Wei had made some inquiries and found that Ni Yang had opened a noodle restaurant here.

At first, Li Wei couldn’t believe that Ni Yang would open a noodle restaurant, and only standing inside the restaurant did he realize that Ni Yang had indeed opened one.

First a stall, and now a restaurant. Ni Yang was beyond his imagination.

“Ni Yang, it’s been a long time since we last met. I thought you left Beijing. I didn’t expect you to open a noodle restaurant. Congratulations.”

Ni Yang smiled, “Thank you.”

Li Wei continued, “I am puzzled by a math problem. Could you help me with it?”

Ni Yang nodded, “Sure.”

Li Wei genuinely needed Ni Yang’s assistance in a math problem. It was a very difficult problem, one which not even the class monitor could solve.

In this era, Chinese students had not yet had any exposure to Olympiad problems and were unfamiliar with the international standard. Li Wei was only dealing with Olympiad problems because the teacher in their class had studied abroad.

Ni Yang took the test paper and began to ponder before she started solving.

She was far removed from her previous life as a student.

Facing this Olympiad problem, she was slightly dazed initially. She had to reorganize some knowledge points.

Seeing her like this, Li Wei felt a little better.

He had thought Ni Yang was capable of everything. As it turned out, there were problems Ni Yang could not solve either.

That’s right!

The Olympiad problems were foreign. How could Ni Yang solve them!

However, in the next moment, Ni Yang stunned Li Wei. She started to write down the process of solving the problem, stroke by stroke.

Not only did she have the correct answer, but her solution was even clearer than the teacher’s.

“You take a look,” Ni Yang returned the paper to Li Wei. “In mathematics, all logical thinking is the same. The formula I have just written can be applied universally. Even if you go to university and study advanced mathematics later, the logic will remain the same.”

Li Wei nodded, a look of surprise in his eyes. He didn’t even know what to say.

After a while, he came back to his senses. “Ni Yang, thank you very much.”

“You’re welcome,” Ni Yang smiled gently.

Li Wei glanced around the noodle restaurant. Then he continued, “Ni Yang, the rent for such a large noodle shop must be expensive, isn’t it?”

His family paid more than 150 yuan a month for a small shop. This shop of Ni Yang’s must be even larger, thus could be assumed to be pricier.

Ni Yang laughed, “Not very expensive, I bought this restaurant.”

She bought it?

Ni Yang actually bought the restaurant…

Li Wei swallowed back the words, ‘If you need help, you can ask me.’

Ni Yang had bought her own restaurant, while his family was still renting a shop… What could he possibly help Ni Yang with?

The last shred of superiority in Li Wei’s heart vanished. He even forgot how he had left Ni Yang’s restaurant.

He walked home, still a little absent-minded.
