Chapter 284: Studying Hard


Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


Xia Wan thought that she should keep her relationship with Chen MO from her brother for now or he would definitely be angry.


That night, after dinner, the three of them returned to their rooms to study.


Xia Wan also took out her high school textbook. She had been focused on earning money these days, so she did not learn much from it. Fortunately, she had applied for liberal arts back then, so most of what she needed to memorize was related to that. The only difficult thing was mathematics.


She decided to tackle the simple questions first. The history book came first, which mainly recorded the various developments of the country from ancient times to the present. She planned to read all the history books first to understand what was involved, and then summarize the test points in each cla.s.s.


Her foundation was poor, and her grades in her previous life were not very good. Later on, she mainly studied medicine. Now that she had obtained the textbook, she realized that she had completely forgotten about it.


Fortunately, she had many years of experience. She knew very well that if she wanted to do well in the college entrance examination, she had to be particularly solid and firm in her studies. She had to have a firm grasp of the Imowledge points of each subject, or she had to guess the possible scope of the examination. If she was lucky and guessed correctly, she could perform well in the college entrance examination.


Luck was extremely important at all times.


Xia Wan took a deep breath and took out all the high school history books, and placed them on the table. For the first time, she would read through the entire text first, then summarize the knowledge points in a few simple words and jot them down in the notebook beside her.


She was immersed in the sea of books until 10 p.m. At this time, she had already finished reading a book.


Xia Wan stretched and chose to make herself some refreshing soup. She wanted to study until 11 0’clock but was a little sleepy now.


When she came to the living room, she found that Xia Chen was also fiddling with the refrigerator.


“Brother, what are you looking for? Are you hungry?” Xia Wan asked.


Xia Chen scratched his head in embarra.s.sment. “1 was studying in the room for a while, but I suddenly felt very hungry.”


Xia Wan comforted him, “This is very normal. If you exert too much brainpower, your body will also feel hungry. At this time, you should eat some light food or fruit.


“Actually, I came out because I was a little hungry from studying. How about this, brother? I’ll cook some noodles for you.”


Hearing Xia Wan’s words, Xia Chen quickly agreed.


While making the noodles, Xia Wan took two eggs and beat them into exquisite poached eggs. She placed one in each bowl and added some tomatoes and onions. The entire noodles looked very shiny and appetizing.


Xia Chen felt even hungrier when he saw the noodles. He quickly finished the meal and couldn’t help but praise Xia Wan, “Sister, why do I feel that your cooking skills are better than before?”


“Last time, you were very thoughtful and said that you wanted to help Mom cook. In the end, your cooking was either undercooked or overcooked. The noodles you made were also difficult to get right, so you couldn’t make such a delicious meal.”


Xia Wan was a little embarra.s.sed by Xia Chen’s words. In her previous life, when she was this age, she was still a pampered individual in the family. It wasn’t her responsibility to cook, so she wasn’t motivated to think about how to cook well.


Later, her family members left one after another. She followed her master and


wandered the streets alone. Sometimes, the two of them would go to the deep mountains and wild forests. At that time, in order to fill their stomachs, they had to put a lot of effort into learning what could and couldn’t be eaten. How to make the available ingredients more delicious had also become a daily research problem for her.


Thinking of this, Xia Wan couldn’t help but feel a little sad and emotional. Fortunately, her family was still around. She also had someone to care for and protect her.


Xia Chen saw that Xia Wan seemed to be in a daze, as if she had fallen into some memories because of his words. He quickly asked, “Sister, what’s wrong with you? Did your brother’s words remind you of something bad? Could it be that someone forced you to learn it?”


Thinking of this possibility, Xia Chen was angry. In the past, when his family was working, he often went to the county town to look for a job. Could Xia Ru and Xia Ye have forced his precious sister to cook and work when he was not at home?


Xia Wan saw that Xia Chen was suddenly angry and quickly coaxed him, “Brother, don’t be anxious. No one bullied me. I learned how to cook on my own. These past two days, when I had nothing to do, I often went to the bookstore in the county town to read. Some books specialize in cooking, and I’ve also learned that my technique wasn’t good before, mainly because I didn’t control the heat well enough and knew little about seasonings..”
