Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Liu Hua’s eyes widened in surprise. However, she quickly recollected that Xia Wan had been engaged in selling clothes all this while. How could she have possibly found the ti to hire a tutor for studying?
Xia Wan chuckled softly. She naturally refrained from disclosing that she had gleaned this knowledge from her previous life. Instead, she deftly shifted the credit over to Xia Chen. She stated, “It was actually my brother who helped out. Although he ended up leaving school midway, his academic performance used to be quite impressive.
“I was even contemplating speaking to the principal about letting my brother resu his third year of high school.”
Liu Hua’s smile of happiness grew wider upon hearing this. She genuinely felt delighted for Xia Chen.
Xia Chen had consistently exhibited excellent academic achievents. However, in the past, her progress in studies had been stunted due to the prevailing sentint in the village that deed extensive education unnecessary for girls, as they would eventually marry.
Once, Xia Chen secured the top rank in her class. Buoyant with joy, she hurried to share the news with her family. On her way ho, she ran into a familiar face-her second aunt.
Upon learning about Xia Chen’s triumph, Second Aunt didn’t express any happiness for her niece. Instead, she responded with a condescending tone, “So what if you ca first? Sooner or later, you’ll be married off. University education costs a lot of money.”
“During your university years, you won’t be able to earn anything. By the ti you graduate, you’ll be older, making it even harder for you to find a suitable partner.”
During that mont, Liu Hua felt a sense of inferiority and was incapable of retorting to Second Aunt’s words.
As luck would have it, Xia Chen happened to pass by and imdiately fired back, “What’s wrong with a girl attending university? Liu Hua secured the top spot. That’s an achievent to be proud of. It showcases her intelligence and resilience, surpassing many boys.”
“If you’re so against Liu Hua’s success, why don’t you ensure your son excels in his exams?”
Xia Chen’s verbal reprimand forced Second Aunt to leave, seething with resentnt.
Xia Chen’s intervention had successfully banished Liu Hua’s feelings of inferiority.
Subsequently, Liu Hua doubled down on her studies, scaling from being at the top of her class to conquering the highest rank across the entire grade.
In her eyes, Xia Chen was transforming into a luminous presence.
Liu Hua and Xia Wan maximized their two-hour lunch break. They ticulously absorbed the contents of the practice test set.
Mathematics wasn’t akin to other subjects demanding rote morization.
Mastery in math hinged upon a complete understanding of problem types. Every question was a testant to the application of a specific problem – solving technique.
The extent of Xia Wan’s improvent caught her by surprise. Clasping the test paper, a smile spread across her lips.
Shelving her thoughts, Liu Hua inquired curiously, “Wanwan, how did you manage such rapid progress in mathematics?”
A grin accompanied her response. “While I was at ho, I skimd through the textbook briefly. Most of my efforts went into solving problems. It just so happened that I had encountered many of the questions from this set of papers before. Had the test been different, my luck might not have held.”
Liu Hua harbored no skepticism. After all, acquiring proficiency in all these topics within such a short ti was implausible without a tutor’s assistance.
Contemplating this, Liu Hua probed, “Wanwan, it’s clear you’re enthusiastic about enhancing your grades. Do you think you might require a tutor? I have a cousin currently studying in university. She’s consistently excelled academically and secured a place in a prestigious institution. However, her family is in financial straits. If she could find employnt as a tutor, she’d likely jump at the opportunity.”
Xia Wan didn’t hastily agree to the proposal. Instead, she mused, “Let ponder over it.”
Engaging a tutor did indeed seem promising. Despite her tempered abilities from her previous life and a fortified capacity for logical reasoning, high school subjects remained manageable only if she was willing to learn.
Nevertheless, the limiting factor was ti. If she could secure a tutor who could elucidate the core concepts during her revision, her academic growth would doubtlessly experience a teoric ascent.
As they strolled back to school, Xia Wan spoke up, “Could you arrange for your cousin to tutor ?”
Liu Hua’s eyes brimd with astonishnt. “You’re genuinely interested?” “Yes,” Xia Wan affird.
“In that case, I’ll et her after school today. Would you like to accompany ?” Liu Hua suddenly suggested, “Her situation is sowhat unique, after all..”
