Chapter 6

Ah? Nuan Ge was taken aback.

Warm Song ... ... Shaoling ... ... Shaoling silently recited in his heart, he actually wanted to take over Warm Song's words, reciting them recklessly like her, but he could not. He could only recite for himself, and if he were to speak aloud, it would be only in the absence of others.

Shaoling inhaled sharply, speechless, as he noticed the white traces at the corners of Nuange's lips, which were nothing less than evidence; only a blind person like Ji Modan would fail to see it

Uncle Zhong shook his head as he left, helping Shaoling close the door tightly, muttering: "Although the young master is knowledgeable, he should also see the world outside..."

"Eat the pancake." Nuan Ge brought the pancake to Shaoling's lips

Shaoling's instinctive reaction was to look up, his gaze fleetingly soft, completely different from the usual coldness. However, Nuan Ge was unaware of what that represented, yet still found himself captivated by that unexpected gentleness, lost in thought, staring intently at Shaoling's face

Nuan Ge tapped his forehead, deliberately raising his voice, "Be serious!"

A drop of sweat at Shaoling's temples

He could not help but open his mouth and bite down, his lips brushing against that slender, cool finger

Shaoling was at a loss for words, who was it that said they would treat? Not wanting to argue with her over a few coins, he thought for a moment and then reached into his bosom; the bee sting remedy he had prepared for Nuan Ge should also be given to her

"Really?" The warmth in her eyes quickly regained its brilliance, "Do you have a way?"

"Where is the nonsense? Senior brother, your words do not match your heart; you are clearly jealous." Warm Song smiled sweetly, leaning closer to Ji Moran and deliberately lowering her voice, "Let me tell you a secret, sister has been sent to the countryside by our aunt, where she planted many peach blossoms. Would you like to go see her?"

She is sleeping soundly, her head tilted to the side, half of her cheek resting on the table, her lips slightly parted. After a short while, as expected, a thin strand of transparent... emerges from her mouth

Ji Mo Ran lightly coughed, took out a small medicine bottle from his bosom, and stuffed it into Nuan Ge's hand, "This is for you, apply it to the wound on your hand"

Warm Song... This is not very good, I have been quite busy lately... Another day, perhaps another day." Ji Mo Ran's expression was awkward; he truly felt guilty about Xiao Rou's matter, but romantic feelings between men and women cannot be forced.

Pride aside, no matter how many times he is taught, he still cannot learn... This is quite a tiring matter, especially when the weather outside is fine and sunny, making the feeling even more tormenting. Yet, the bell for the end of class just won't ring. If he were to run away at this moment, his mother would scold him severely if she found out. Warm Song helplessly rested his head on the desk, listening to Shaoling's incoherent pronunciations, his fingers aimlessly drawing circles on the table. As he continued to draw... he unexpectedly fell asleep.

Ji Mo ran felt embarrassed, but it was interpreted by Nuan Ge as an acceptance, causing her heart to bloom with joy

How do you know?" Shaoling glanced at her with a sidelong look

After returning to the academy, all was peaceful and uneventful

However, before falling asleep, Shaoling asked Uncle Zhong a question: "Why does it make Nuange so angry when I say that my household is in the duck business?"

The bee venom has not yet dissipated, do not be careless. Ji Moran patted Nuan Ge's forehead, saying, "You are only thinking about your sister, but what about yourself?"

Shaoling was somewhat surprised, as Nuange collected the coins and began to smile triumphantly, "So, what do you think? I told you there are many good people!"

The back of Shaoling shivered, and the softness on his face tightened.

Nuan Ge woke up as if by reflex, and upon seeing Ji Mo Ran had already entered, she suddenly noticed that a part of the paper in front of her was damp. Feeling flustered, she quickly pushed the paper towards Shao Ling and said, "Hey, are you sleeping again during the teacher's lecture? You actually drooled!"

I see... The expression on Nuan Ge's face was clearly one of disappointment

Warm Song stood up happily, "Senior Brother Ji, you have a conscience, oh, are you feeling jealous? Hearing that my cousin is with Shaoling, you are jealous, right?"

"Ahem." Nuan Ge cleared his throat, "Continue, continue, come on, it's your turn to read. If you don't read well today, you won't be allowed to eat. You see, after learning, there are benefits, and then you will be able to pronounce the name of the Master."

The other students in the Songshi Study are still on break, and the usual noise has dissipated. Even the warm songs being taught lack enthusiasm. "What is written in this booklet is called pinyin, which, when combined, represents the pronunciation of each character. Do you understand"

Well, the cashier will charge it to your account

Shaoling was at a loss whether to laugh or cry; this girl truly is ... ...

On the afternoon of the second day, Nuan Ge officially began teaching Shaoling, with the content being the peculiar booklet that had been handed to Shaoling the day before

The study is extremely quiet, there will be no one here to monitor him, no endless scheming over books and illustrations, only the warm and gentle presence of the master before him

Come, follow the master and read, ah, bo, ci, de, e, fo, ge ... ... "Warm Song simply pulled over a stool and sat head-to-head across from Shaoling, teaching, 'Once more, ah, bo, ci, de ... ... '

Well, let me first teach you the name of the master, Nuan Ge. "Is it fun?" Nuan Ge smiled.

"Just in time, the ink shop has received some new stock. I noticed that the quality seems to be somewhat uneven. Mo Ran, could you please help me take a look?" Yu Lei had a kind and amiable expression, complemented by her exquisite makeup and splendid attire

hive

"Is it delicious?" asked Nuan Ge with a smile

It turns out that I enjoy teaching fools, and Nuan Ge nodded to himself with certainty

Warm song! The door of the study was not closed, and a gentle voice came through. Entering was Ji Moran, whom I had just seen yesterday.

Before Shaoling could voice his objections, as if to confirm her words, a person indeed came running from the street corner... it was none other than the vendor who had just sold the pancakes, holding a copper coin in his hand, "Miss... your copper coin..."

And then your name, Shaoling, gently took a brush and neatly wrote both of their names in pinyin on the paper, teaching softly and quietly.

Shaoling looked at her suddenly animated brows and eyes with helplessness, and suddenly felt that perhaps helping her was a mistake

Uncle Zhong's mouth twitched, "The duck... is just working in the beehive."

Shaoling hesitantly followed her reading style and finally managed to speak, pronouncing her and the book's name word by word. In fact, Shaoling had always thought her name was quite nice, but he did not expect that reading it slowly would enhance the warmth felt between his lips and teeth. He began to feel something towards those strange symbols; indeed, the courses at the business school were somewhat different, no wonder they were so renowned

Cheng Shaoling watched them walk away and was about to tease Nuan Ge a few words, but he noticed that her expression was not quite right. With a flicker of thought, his sarcastic words took on a different tone, "It would be good for your sister to have a few days of peace; if she doesn't see him, she won't indulge in wild fantasies anymore"

Sitting very close, Shaoling's sharply defined face became increasingly clear. If Ji Moran resembled a bamboo standing alone in the muddy world after the rain, then Shaoling... exuded a charm that could bewilder Nuan Ge. He was a bad boy, a fool, yet... he was truly handsome

"The ink dye has arrived." Standing outside the study door, speaking these words, is the dignified current dean of the Business School: Yu Lei

Shaoling naturally shook his head

"It is... a man... a prostitute." Uncle Zhong sighed deeply

Master? '' Shaoling interrupted Nuange's daydreaming

How could that little girl understand these things... Shaoling felt a vague annoyance in his heart, but seeing Nuange's expression, he still said something contrary to his feelings, "If you really want Ji Moran to see your sister, there are certainly ways to do it."

Nuan Ge tightly held the small medicine bottle, staring blankly at Ji Mo Ran, suddenly losing her usual sharp wit and eloquence

Shaoling's fingers tightened under the desk, unable to open his mouth; these strange symbols and pronunciations are truly ... ...

She has fallen asleep, so Shaoling can stop now

Cheng Shaoling slightly furrowed his brows, yet he still paid his respects to Yu Lei.

"Anyway, I just know..." Nuan Ge lowered her head. Need I say more? This was the feeling she had when she thought of her mother and father.

"If you can't read it, that's alright. Just take your time to learn, and you will get it eventually," Nuan Ge said patiently, and deep within, a sense of pride in being a teacher arose, a feeling that was quite magical and one that could not be experienced by other students

No. Warm Song is extremely frustrated, really wanting to be alone. The more I can't see you, the more I miss you, and that is a very sad feeling

Shaoling nodded sincerely

"Aunt." Nuan Ge unconsciously took a step back, hiding the small medicine bottle behind her.

The cake is oily, yet exudes a fragrant aroma. Although Shaoling is quite full, he cannot help but gaze at the cake, as well as the delicate fingers of Nuange that hold it... along with the swollen and bruised back of her hand

Ji Mo Ran is certainly not blind. Out of indulgence for his junior sister, he has no interest in exposing Nuan Ge, but selectively ignores the traces at the corner of Nuan Ge's mouth, smiling as he says: "Are you alright that day..."

Hmm?

Whether or not one has seen the world, Uncle Zhong can make decisions; however, what the Master wishes to teach is beyond Uncle Zhong's control

I am merely concerned that if your aunt were to find out that you were misbehaving on the street again yesterday, she would punish you

"Alright." Ji Mo Ran agreed, and without delay, followed Yu Lei out of the Songshi Study.

Shaoling's fingers had already touched the small medicine bottle, yet ultimately they still came to a halt

Ah! Tanghulu, a must-have for everyone! Nuan Ge did not notice Shaoling's actions, but widened her eyes as she ran towards the tanghulu stall at the street corner while eating a pancake.
