“Xiao Ning, I don’t think you’re any worse than Xiao Ting. You’re just too good-natured and don’t like to express yourself. Girls should be more confident. I believe you can do it too! ” Mother Chu said seriously, which was rare.
“Mom, it’s not like I have low self-esteem. Of course, I know I’m no worse than Ye Ting, but the point is, I really don’t want to be in the limelight at a school like this! ”
Chu Ning’s inner thoughts were very complicated. She didn’t expect that Mother Chu would understand her words in that way.
Just as she was about to change the topic, Chu Zhang spoke up. “Yes, little sister. I think your image and temperament are very good. Why don’t you try to compete for the host position? ”
“Our Xiao Ning won’t be worse than anyone else. ” Her second brother Chu Jing chipped in from the side with a simple and honest smile.
“…I really want to sew your mouths shut. Don’t interrupt when you shouldn’t be talking! ” Chu Ning felt like crying in her heart. At that moment, changing the topic wouldn’t work. She had to answer the question directly. “Mom, I’ll try my best. If I’m really not chosen, don’t blame me. ”
Chu Ning could only say that. She didn’t know why, but the topic always inexplicably shifted to her.
“I just hope that you can be happier and more confident, Xiao Ning. Actually, it doesn’t matter if you don’t go on stage, as long as you’re doing well in school. ” Mother Chu sighed and looked at Chu Ning with a gentler gaze.
“Mom, you’re making it very difficult for me… ” Chu Ning thought. She didn’t know what to say anymore. Nevertheless, she had no choice but to say, “Mmm, I definitely won’t let you down, Mom! ”
Meanwhile, Father Chu was carrying a lot of things in his hands. Those were the daily necessities that he had bought for Chu Zhang.
But at that moment, he was muttering softly to himself, “When did the country issue a new medical insurance policy, such that Xiao Zhang’s medical expenses are reduced by a few thousand just like that? ”
In Chu Zhang’s ward, the whole family spent the day happily amidst laughter and laughter.
Before leaving in the evening, Chu Ning received a small gift from her seventh brother, Chu Zhang.
It was an exquisite jade pendant that Chu Zhang had been wearing in the past years. Although it was not very valuable, it had always been worn on his body and had not been taken off for more than ten years.
After Chu Ning returned home, she carefully kept it. No matter what, she wanted Chu Zhang to regain his ability to move freely!
On the second day of the weekend, Chu Ning’s schedule for the entire day was very full. Her extracurricular class was also full. In the eyes of those students, learning from Chu Ning was even more efficient than learning from a teacher!
Moreover, many students felt that Chu Ning’s knowledge reserve level had even faintly surpassed that of a teacher!
At least, it had surpassed that of the history teacher!
Yan Shen was still the same as usual. However, ever since the incident with Chu Ning on the playground, the communication between him and Chu Ning had become even less.
Nevertheless, he would still ask Chu Ning some very high-end academic questions. Without exception, the knowledge involved in those questions exceeded the normal level. Some of them were only taught to university students.
Chu Ning was still very patient as she answered them one by one. She felt that Yan Shen was a very talented and smart child.
Well, the prerequisite was that he did not compare himself to her.
Before she came, Yan Shen was definitely the first in the grade. Moreover, his grades were also far ahead of the second place. However, he had become the person far behind Chu Ning.
“Chu Ning, I have something that I’m very curious about. ” After Yan Shen asked Chu Ning a question, he suddenly mentioned it.
“If you have any questions, just ask. As long as I know, I will definitely tell you, ” Chu Ning replied indifferently. In terms of academics, she could no longer be described as confident!
“I’m not asking you an academic question. ” Yan Shen shook his head gently and said, “I’m just very curious. How did you manage to grasp so much knowledge in such a limited amount of time? Moreover, you were able to master it and even have your own unique views on some of the questions. ”
Yan Shen paused for a moment, then said, “Actually, I really admire you. I also want to ask how I can get close to you. ”
