The National Goddess Reborn - Chapter 103
Chapter 103 I Don’t Have Long Hands (3)
“How boring.” Wang Le sneered.
Initially, he thought that there would be an exciting fight since she had bullied Nian Yue in the past. Now, it seemed that she was just a coward.
The students of Class A were already used to such situations.
Those who dare to come up against a big shot like Nian Yue must have felt that their lives were too comfortable.
It was the Chinese language class in the afternoon. Nian Yue was leaning on the table and feeling a little sleepy. Most of the students in the class had fallen asleep. When the class was finally over, Old Sun finished talking about the last bit of language knowledge before knocking on Nian Yue’s table. “Nian Yue, have you memorized the essay competition?”
Nian Yue looked a little impatient as she woke up. She took out the piece of paper that Old Sun had given her from the drawer. “I’ve memorized it.”
This essay was specially printed out by Old Sun after collecting the outstanding essays for the college entrance examination in the past few years. There were also his comments.
Old Sun was the Head of the Chinese Literature department of No.1 Middle School. He used to study the college entrance examination questions in the Imperial Capital, but he was transferred to No.1 Middle School.
The essay in his hand was not valuable. What was valuable was his approval.
He could not bear to lend it to the other teachers.
However, this essay book was brand new and did not even have a fingerprint.
On hearing Nian Yue’s reply, Old Sun was speechless.
“I don’t believe you.”
Old Sun sighed and stuffed the essay back to her. “Forget it, it’s useless for me to hold it. You can have it first…”
Nian Yue leaned against the wall. Her eyes had yet to recover their clarity as she casually placed the essay under the corner of the table.
Lin Nan, who was at the side, grimaced. If Old Sun found out that she had used such a precious composition document to prop up the corner of the table, he would definitely go crazy.
“Speaking of which, Sister Yue, why aren’t you writing an essay?” Lin Nan asked curiously.
“I don’t know how to.” Nian Yue shook her head and rubbed her temples. She casually took the Chinese Literature paper and filled it up.
The last two periods were physics. Nian Yue held her chin and listened to two lessons. In the end, she took the medical book she had borrowed from Lin Lang and started reading it.
The day’s class was finally over. When school was over, Nian Yue casually picked up the bag on the table and glanced at her phone. The call was from Old Master Yang, and Nian Yue answered it.
“Yue Yue, we haven’t seen each other for a long time…” Old Master Yang’s voice came from the other end of the phone. His voice was filled with joy.
“What’s the matter, Old Master Yang?” Nian Yue raised her eyebrows.
“Little girl, can’t I look for you for no reason?” Old Master Yang raised his eyebrows and continued, “I have a calligraphy painting here that I would like you to take a look at…”
He sincerely wanted to take Nian Yue as his disciple. However, Nian Yue ignored his offer. “Oh?” Nian Yue raised her eyebrows. “Didn’t you just return to the capital?”
Although Old Master Yang was already so old, he had posted a lot on his social media.
“Can’t I come back again?” Old Master Yang laughed. “I happened to have brought over a few paintings from the Imperial Capital these few days. I wanted you to help me take a look… Besides, I heard that you’re looking for some rare herbs. I should have what you need…”
He knew that with Nian Yue’s cold personality, she would not agree to this easily.
“Alright, send me the address.” Nian Yue replied.
Nian Yue took the car keys and drove straight to the address Old Master Yang had sent her.
Her physique had yet to reach the peak state of her previous life and was completely dependent on training. It was not possible to reach it in a short period of time. The fastest way was to use refined medicine to build up her body.
However, many medicinal herbs in this era could only be cultivated in laboratories.
Not even the Lu family was capable of doing it.
At this moment, in his villa, Old Master Yang was holding a landscape painting in his hand. Sitting opposite him was a middle-aged man in his forties who was drinking tea.
“Old Master, you didn’t call her here just to look at this painting of yours, did you?” Wang Zhenghong asked.
Not only was Wang Zhenghong Old Master Yang’s disciple, but he was also the director of the painting bureau in the Imperial Capital. It was almost impossible for ordinary people to meet him.
“Of course.” Old Master Yang laughed out loud. “This little girl is a little devilish. She’s even better at reading than me…”
At that time, she had only sat in Gan Kun Hall for less than ten minutes before she could remember the price and quality of everything placed inside. Then, she estimated the value of the jade in her hand. Not everyone had such a memory.
When Nian Yue came over, the servant had already been waiting at the door for a long time. When she saw Nian Yue enter, she walked up to her. “You must be Miss Nian Yue, right? Old Master has been waiting for you for a long time…”
Nian Yue followed her into the Yang Family. Old Master Yang smiled when he saw her. “Yue Yue, come here…”
Nian Yue had one hand in her pocket and looked a little unruly. She went straight to the point. “Don’t forget my things.”
Since Old Master Yang could say that, it meant that he knew the medicinal herb she was looking for like the back of his hand.
“Of course.” Old Master Yang agreed readily. Nian Yue sat opposite him. Old Master Yang introduced Wang Zhenghong to her, and Nian Yue nodded slightly.
She had never been a friendly person. If Old Master Yang did not have what she wanted, she would not have come at all.
