"People are indeed in high spirits. You look especially refreshed today," Cao Ronghua said as he looked at Hao Ren on the way to class the next day.
"No wonder you are dealing with a rich woman. Even your temperament has changed," Zhou Liren touched his chin and said to Zhao Jiayi and the others while looking at Hao Ren.
"Every movement of yours has an ethereal quality to it," Zhao Jiayi joked.
The speaker didn't mean it, but the listener did. Hao Ren also felt that the aura around him was different after he unlocked the connection yesterday.
It was as if the laws of nature had merged with him. Even though he couldn't absorb the essence of nature yet, he felt like he was the nature itself.
He was already like this even though he had only reached the first level of the basic cultivation technique. No wonder Zhao Yanzi's Third Uncle looked down on mortals. Hao Ren thought to himself as he felt the changes in his body.
On the way to class, the four of them bumped into a few girls who were coming out of the cafeteria after breakfast. Xie Yujia glanced at Hao Ren and was about to speed up to grab a seat in the front row when she suddenly felt a little strange. She looked back at Hao Ren again.
"Strange, he is wearing the same clothes as yesterday. How come his temperament is different?" Xie Yujia was a little confused, but she thought it was just her imagination. She shook her head and rode toward the Academic Building on her bicycle.
"Xie Yujia looked back at you. Did you two hook up?" Zhou Liren winked at Hao Ren.
Hao Ren exhaled, "How is that possible …"
In his mind, Xie Yujia was not only the Class President but also the prettiest girl in the class. To him, she was an unreachable existence.
Also … he was a married man now.
The four of them arrived at the Academic Building just in time for the start of class. Hao Ren picked a seat by the window with fresh air. He took out his materials and started to prepare for tonight's tutoring exam.
"You didn't reply to my messages yesterday?" Hao Ren suddenly received a message from Xie Yujia in the middle of class.
He was a little surprised. He looked up and saw Xie Yujia looking back at him. The Class President, who had been diligent in taking notes, actually sent messages in class …
Hao Ren quickly looked down and replied, "You're talking about long-distance running. I got it."
"You're the only one from our class to participate in the competition. Our entire academy will only select six people to participate in the competition. Don't disappoint me." She then sent another message.
Hao Ren suddenly felt layers of pressure. The Athletic Games of East Ocean University was held once every two years, and it was a competition for all the students regardless of their grades. Tens of thousands of students from the university were selected to compete on the field, and it was a grand event.
"Got it," Hao Ren replied. He was also considered a famous long-distance runner in high school, but he had never participated in a provincial competition, so he didn't rely on it to get extra points in the college entrance examination.
Xie Yujia had high expectations for him, but he didn't have much confidence in himself. Even if he used to run very fast, after entering university, he played computer games all day. It had been a long time since he had properly practiced.
He thought that the message was over, but Xie Yujia sent him another message, "Did you get a haircut yesterday? How come you look different today?"
"Nope," Hao Ren replied.
After that, Xie Yujia didn't send him any more messages. Hao Ren wondered if his reply was too cold, but he quickly immersed himself in the middle school English questions.
In the evening, Hao Ren took the bus to Zhao Yanzi's home again. It wasn't the first time that he had dinner at her home, so Hao Ren wasn't as reserved as last time. Of course, Hao Ren still didn't interrupt when it came to their family matters.
After dinner, Zhao Hongyu didn't let Hao Ren help her clean up and asked him to tutor Zhao Yanzi. Although Zhao Yanzi was reluctant, she still followed Hao Ren upstairs obediently.
After thinking for a whole day, Hao Ren decided to tutor Zhao Yanzi according to the basic knowledge. Therefore, today's test paper was centered around the most common middle school English question, Tense.
Time ticked by, and Zhao Yanzi finally finished the test paper after racking her brain.
"Uncle, can you do it or not?" Looking at Hao Ren grading her test paper seriously, Zhao Yanzi supported her chin with her hand and twirled the ballpoint pen in her hand.
She had changed out of her school uniform when she got home today. She was wearing a short T-shirt with a kitten pattern and a red checkered skirt. The fluffy combination made her look like a candy, sweet and girlish.
She was sitting on the chair with her legs curled up, and her flat belly was exposed to Hao Ren. However, she didn't notice it at all.
"If you study seriously with me, it won't be a problem for you to get into the top three in your class." Hao Ren put a big red 30 on her test paper and gave it back to her.
Ignoring her pouting little mouth, Hao Ren pointed at the first question and began explaining, "Here, you said yesterday, so you have to use the past tense. Say is an irregular verb, so the past tense is said, not sayed … Hey, listen carefully and write it down …"
Seeing Hao Ren's lack of interest, Zhao Yanzi put on a long face. However, she had no choice but to follow his instructions and write it down in her notebook.
Hao Ren couldn't understand it either. From the books in Zhao Hongyu's studio, Zhao Hongyu should be very good at English. How come her daughter's English was so lousy?
After an hour of tutoring, Zhao Yanzi's ballpoint pen was almost chewed to pieces by her little teeth, which showed how much she hated Hao Ren.
"Ren, come upstairs with me." Zhao Guang appeared at the door on time.
"Ok." Hao Ren put down the materials in his hand and followed Zhao Guang into the studio.
"Did you break through?" Zhao Guang asked after entering the studio.
"Probably. I feel like my body has been unblocked," Hao Ren said.
"Ok, you did well. However, the first level is relatively easy. Today, I will explain the rest of the content to you. "Zhao Guang's face was calm and didn't show any surprise.
Hao Ren picked a place to sit down and listened to him patiently. Although he didn't know what realm Zhao Guang had reached, he guessed it wouldn't be low.
He didn't think about flying into the sky or burrowing into the ground, but he wanted to protect his own life. If he succeeded in his cultivation, Zhao Yanzi would have a higher chance of surviving the crisis in three years.
Of course, he knew that Zhao Yanzi's family was trying their best to help him. Although strictly speaking, Zhao Yanzi was in the wrong, they would rather put their daughter in danger than sacrifice the innocent Hao Ren. Putting himself in their shoes, this was something that many parents couldn't do.
Soon, it was 9: 30, and Zhao Guang had finally explained every detail of the Spirit Concentration Scroll.
"Come back tomorrow at the same time. You can cultivate on your own and come to me if you don't understand anything," Zhao Guang looked up at the time and said.
Hao Ren nodded and walked out of the studio to the second floor. He entered Zhao Yanzi's room and saw that she was busy with her homework. He didn't want to disturb her and left quietly with the materials for tutoring.
"I'll drive you back," Zhao Guang appeared at the door and said.
"Thank you." Hao Ren didn't refuse.
On the way back, Zhao Guang suddenly asked, "Do you know how to drive?"
"I have a driver's license. I learned it last summer, but I don't really know how to drive," Hao Ren answered.
"How about I buy you a car? It'll be more convenient. Do you like a Chevrolet or a Volkswagen? " Zhao Guang said lightly as if he was talking about buying a ten-yuan toy instead of a hundred-thousand-yuan car.
"Ugh … It's okay. I'll take a taxi back myself, "Hao Ren said immediately.
Zhao Guang didn't say anything else. He drove Hao Ren back to the dorm quietly.
"Oh, tell Zi that I'm going to the Athletic Games next week, and I need to train myself for the next few days. I'll continue tutoring her next Tuesday."
"Ok." Zhao Guang started the car steadily and disappeared around the corner.
A calm father-in-law, a gentle mother-in-law, and an unruly fiancée. What else could there be? Hao Ren took a deep breath and entered the dorm building.
When he got back to the dorm, Zhou Liren and the other two guys weren't there. It was obvious that they were playing games in the internet cafe. Hao Ren opened the bag and reorganized the materials. Suddenly, he noticed that a big pig's head was drawn on the title page of his most frequently used middle-school English exercises.
It had a rough nose, round eyes, drooping ears, and thick lips … There were also a few words beside it, "Arrogant Uncle."
Hao Ren looked at the pig's head that looked like him and laughed.
