Chapter 16: A Tight Slap Across The Face
Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations
Liu Shuying looked at Wen Ruanâs innocent expressions and became suspicious.
This silly Missy always listened to her and would never rebut her.
What was happening today? She didnât just pit herself against Wanwan, she even became eloquent and aggressive.
Liu Shuying suppressed her displeasure and smiled gently. âRuanruan, Wanwan and I didnât know anything about the meaning behind it. Wanwan is always focused on her studies. She is ranked sixth in the school seniorsâ opening exam for the entire grade. Her results wouldnât be so good if she was dating, right?â
Wen Jinzhangâs expression turned sullen when the results were mentioned.
Ye Wanwan was the sixth in the whole grade. Wen Ruan was ranked sixth as well, but in reverse.
Wen Jinzhang waved his hand as he didnât want to waste time on such trivial matters. âItâs just a misunderstanding. Itâs fine now since the children have talked it out. Letâs go and have dinner!â
Old Mrs. Wen wanted to say something in Wen Ruanâs favor but Wen Ruan gave her a look secretly.

Old Mrs. Wen squeezed Wen Ruanâs fair and tender hands as the two of them smiled at each other.
There were many dishes on the dining table and they were all Old Mrs. Wen, Wen Jinzhang and Wen Ruanâs favorites.
Wen Jinzhang gave Liu Shuying a look. âGet the servants to do this in the future. You are already working in the day and yet, you are still doing all these at night. Itâs too tiring.â
âIf you all like the dishes, I am happy even when I am tired.â
Old Mrs. Wen said, âThe cook bought all the ingredients and he washed and chopped them as well. So, itâs indeed very tiring to simply fry them for a short time.â
Wen Ruan lowered her eyes and almost burst out laughing.
She gave grandma a thumbs-up in her heart.
Liu Shuyingâs smile froze on her face. But she still had to maintain her demure image in front of Wen Jinzhang and switched the topic to the next weekâs monthly test. âWanwan, donât just study on your own, help Ruanruan whenever you get the time.â
âYou two are sisters so you are bound together.â Liu Shuying looked at Wen Ruan again as she was the virtuous mistress of the house.
âRuanruan, go and do your homework with Wanwan on the third floor after dinner. Ask Wanwan to help you whenever you have a question, okay?â
If it was in the past, Wen Ruan would have rejected it immediately when she heard the word âhomeworkâ.
But now, Wen Ruan didnât react negatively. Instead, she nodded sweetly and obediently. âAlright. Then, I shall have to bother Sister Wanwan.â
A hint of surprise flashed across Wen Jinzhangâs eyes when he heard that Wen Ruan was finally willing to learn sincerely.

There was a 135 sqm piano practice room on the 3rd floor and in order to let Ye Wanwan help Wen Ruan with her revision, Wen Jinzhang had converted it into their study.
However, Wen Ruan had never done her homework diligently. She used to play games to kill time when Ye Wanwan was working hard.
âRuanruan, do this set of test papers first. Ask me if you have questions.â
Wen Ruan looked at the test papers and concealed the gleam in her eyes. âI donât know how to do them.â
Ye Wanwan smirked in her heart. âYou wouldnât be a dimwit if you knew how to do them!â
âIn this case, you go and play first. I shall explain it to you after I am done.â
âOkay.â
Wen Ruan didnât play games like usual. Instead, she sat in front of the piano.
A series of ear-piercing piano noises began to emit as soon as Ye Wanwan was about to do her practice questions.
Ye Wanwan turned to look at Wen Ruan. âRuanruan, I am trying to do my homework, so donât create noise please.â
âBut I want to practise my piano.â
A hint of disdain flashed through Ye Wanwanâs eyes. âGo ahead if you want to!â
Ye Wanwan stuffed two paper balls into her ears.
Half an hour later.
A series of harsh and continuous noises made Ye Wanwan unable to concentrate on her work.
Fury rose up in her heart and with a stern face, she walked upto Wen Ruan, who was still banging on the piano. âStop it now!â
Wen Ruan raised her doe-eyes towards her innocently. âWhy?â
âYou play so horribly and itâs affecting me!â
âThen, will you please teach me?â
Ye Wanwan was in the heat of her anger, so of course she wasnât willing to teach Wen Ruan. She grumbled. âYou donât have any musical talent and your fingers are not nimble. You have failed at everything you tried your hands on, so how am I supposed to teach you?â
Clap! A loud sound resounded in the room as soon as Ye Wanwan finished speaking. Wen Ruan had given her a tight slap across the face.
