Chapter 93: 072: Is that person, Ni Yang?_5

Translator: 549690339 I

It’s not easy to find someone you like.

Li Xianxian shyly shook her head, pretending she didn’t understand, “I don’t know what you’re talking about, grandma, let’s go look around up ahead.”

From an angle where Old Lady Mo couldn’t see, a triumphant smile spread across Li Xianxian’s face.

Li Xianxian did a good job pretending, so Old Lady Mo naturally didn’t notice anything unusual.

Over at the Yurtist Road morning market.

Ni Yang had prepared more than six hundred bowls of noodles today and sold them all before noon.

There were still many customers who didn’t get a chance to have noodles.

“Little Boss, you only prepare so few noodles every morning. Are you deliberately tempting our appetites?” joked a customer who stood in line for a long time without getting his noodles.

“Exactly, Little Boss, are you doing it on purpose?”

A lot of customers joined in the buzz.

Mu Qingli distributed small cards to everyone in apologize, “I’m really sorry, there are limited bowls of soup noodles every morning, and I can’t keep up by myself. You can come over earlier tomorrow, with this small card, you can get a five-cent discount per bowl.”

This earned considerable approval from the crowd.

Five cents.

That could buy one old-fashioned popsicle.

The Little Boss indeed knew how to do business. Who else would be willing to give up this five cents?

Ni Yang distributed all more than a hundred cards until none left. After giving out all the cards, Ni Yang started to clean up the stall and prepared to go home.

Today was Saturday, so as Ni Yang just walked over to the shop, she saw Liu Wei sitting on a bench in front of the door reading.

Upon hearing footsteps, Li Wei immediately looked up.

As expected, it was Ni Yang.

“Ni Yang, have you started packing up?” Li Wei initiated the conversation.

“Yeah.” Mu Qingli nodded.

Li Wei continued, “Ni Yang, I have a question to ask you.”

Ni Yang swiftly arranged the table and chairs, “What’s the matter?”

Li Wei took out an English test paper next to him, “This problem.”

This problem was one of the most prone to errors in high school English.

Last time, Ni Yang easily corrected the difference between adming and admirable, making Li Wei disappointed.

He was a high school student, and Ni Yang was merely a junior high student.

How could Ni Yang’s English be this good?

To test whether Ni Yang just had a lucky guess last time, Li Wei intentionally found the hardest question on the English test paper.

He didn’t believe that Ni Yang could answer this time.

After seeing the question, Ni Yang responded, “‘She, hid, herself, after, the, tree’ is clearly a defective sentence. The correct answer should be ‘She, hid, herself, behind, the, tree.”1

Upon hearing this, Li Wei was astounded.

His last dignity was gone.

Ni Yang really did know.

She truly knew English.

After being stunned for a moment, Li Wei continued, “Can you explain why we use it that way?”

Ni Yang answered, “Because ‘after’ is often used to express something after a certain action, so some grammar books call it a dynamic preposition; whereas ‘behind’ is often used after static things.”

Right.

That was also how his teacher explained it.

Li Wei didn’t know how to express his feelings at the moment.

“Ni Yang, thank you.” It took him a while just to squeeze that out.

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

Then, Li Wei continued, “Ni Yang, last time you said you still wanted to go to school, right?”

“Yeah.” Ni Yang nodded.

Li Wei added, “Actually, I feel that you don’t need to go to school anymore. You’re already excellent enough and you’re doing pretty well in business. For us girls, there’s no use in reading so many books, as long as you marry into a good family.”

Out of personal motives, Li Wei didn’t want Ni Yang to attend school.

Because Ni Yang was really too excellent.

If she attended school, she would probably get into a prestigious university. What kind of good guys wouldn’t she be able to find in the university?

By that time, he would really not be good enough for her…

It would be better to just stay as it is.

Ni feels like an individual.

He was a high school student with a promising future.

When Ni Yang stood next to him, Ni Yang was indeed in a superior position.

Hearing this, Ni Yang laughed, “Li Wei, what you said doesn’t sound like something an intellectual would say. What does it mean to ‘just marry into a good family’? Shouldn’t us girls be mere Cuscuta Flowers?”

What was a Cuscuta Flower?

A Cuscuta Flower was a kind of flower that could only survive by clinging to other plants..
