The result was that Ji Nian was lectured all the way by the student council president, Gu Xiuyuan, that little stickler, before getting into the car. Ji Nian, who had already ducked into the car, patted her chest and said, "Finally, freedom!" Shen Qingtang found this amusing and couldn't help but chuckle. But ‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍then she stopped laughing. Because Ji Nian pulled out her deskmate's spicy snack and handed Wei Yang a math problem set. "Wei Yang, I'll give you twenty bucks if you can do my math homework for me, but it has to be in your original handwriting." High EQ: Needs your original handwriting. Low EQ: Needs your handwriting that looks like a grade schooler's. It was rare for Ji Nian to delegate a task, especially one related to academics. Wei Yang, who was usually only asked for help with physical tasks like fighting, pointed at himself and said, "Me?" Ji Nian nodded emphatically, "I thought about it, and you're the only one who can handle this important job." Because asking anyone else might get her beaten up. "It's just first-grade math, nothing you can't handle, right, Wei Yang?" Hearing this, Wei Yang's blood boiled with excitement. He thumped his chest confidently, signaling that anything academic was his forte! He didn't even take Ji Nian's money. Ji Nian, who got fifty bucks for free and didn't have to do her homework, looked at Wei Yang with gratitude, "Thank you, Wei Yang! You're amazing!" Shen Qingtang, who had witnessed the whole thing: "......" It was a hot day, and as soon as Ji Nian stepped out of the car, she was hit by a wave of heat that made her break out in a sweat. "It's so hot, so hot!" Shen Qingtang didn't have many classes that day, so she ran toward the house with Ji Nian. The moment they touched the cool air inside, both let out a long sigh of relief. After Ji Nian finished her shower and changed clothes, she looked around and finally found Ji Tingzhou inspecting the flowers they had planted together. Two small signs were neatly stuck in the ground, one reading 'Ji Nian's Flower' and the other 'Dad's Flower,' written in Ji Nian's own handwriting. "They've sprouted," Ji Tingzhou said without turning around, pointing to the rows of tiny green shoots behind the rocks as he heard Ji Nian running over. "Really?!" Ji Nian exclaimed, ducking under Ji Tingzhou's umbrella. "Dad, is Zhiliao still not back yet?" She had sent a message before leaving for school in the morning, but Zhiliao hadn't replied yet. Ji Tingzhou calculated the time and said, "Probably the day after tomorrow." Ji Nian sighed, "That's so long." If they took a plane, it would be quick. Shen Qingtang's grandparents lived in the south, not in a southern country. How could it take so long? "Uncle, let me tell you something." "You have no idea how mean Dad was!" Chen Mo gestured for a servant to bring over a small stool. The servant quickly brought over a pre-prepared pink bunny chair and placed it beside Chen Mo. Ji Nian sat down on it as if she were sitting on a toilet with her eyes closed, and then she began recounting what Ji Tingzhou had said earlier. Chen Mo was thoroughly amused. His icy demeanor melted away, and he laughed so hard his eyes disappeared. Ji Nian was stunned. Usually, Chen Mo's smiles were restrained, but she had never seen him laugh so openly and brightly before. [Speaking of which... Uncle seems different now.] His face had more color, no longer looking like he might collapse at any moment. He seemed as serene as someone who had just basked in the sun. "He's teasing you. There's no way he'd actually make you sit on a toilet." After laughing, Chen Mo, fearing Ji Nian might actually believe it, surprisingly defended Ji Tingzhou. Ji Nian thought to herself that it wasn't entirely impossible. Last Christmas, the whole family went to a country with a strong holiday atmosphere, but it rained all day, which annoyed Ji Tingzhou. After some thought, his gaze fell on Ji Nian, who was asking if the big egg dog's snacks were tasty. Five minutes later, Ji Nian, wrapped in a white cloth, was tied with a wide ribbon and hung in front of the floor-to-ceiling window as a makeshift sunshine doll. One minute later, the rain stopped. Ji Nian, the person involved: "............" Ji Tingzhou, the person involved, was very satisfied. Indeed, having children was useful. Recalling the past, Ji Nian shook her head and decided to change the subject. "Uncle, I brought you a gift." Ji Nian picked up the box from the floor. Chen Mo had noticed it earlier and had been waiting for Ji Nian to mention it. "It's not anything expensive, so don't mind it, Uncle." Chen Mo thought to himself that as long as it was from Ji Nian, he wouldn't mind. He'd be happy no matter what. Already thinking about where to place the gift in his collection room, Chen Mo took the box. Under Ji Nian's expectant gaze, he untied the ribbon and opened it, revealing— 'Mr. Hu's Hemorrhoid Ointment, Lotus Scented.' Chen Mo: ..................................? Ji Nian scratched her head sheepishly, "I gave some to Uncle Wei Yang before, and he said it worked really well. I looked it up, and it also has preventive effects." "It's perfect for someone like you, Uncle, who sits for long periods."
