Chapter 46: A New Life

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Wen Nian had noticed that Huang Yue had been frequently smiling at her phone recently, indicating that her relationship with Wang Jing was progressing well. Seeing this, Wen Nian didn’t feel the need to intervene or stir up any trouble. She was content to sit back and watch how things unfolded.

Wen Nian withdrew her gaze from Huang Yue’s back. Lately, she had been receiving tutoring from Shen Jun and had made much faster progress than before. She first reviewed the test papers and reference answers, pondering over the incorrect questions before handing them over to Shen Jun.

Wen Nian looked at the red crosses on her test paper and felt a bit embarrassed. “I got half of the questions wrong, but after looking at the reference answers, I was able to figure out the correct answers for eight of them. I marked them with a triangle symbol on the side.”

Wen Nian had only learned the materials taught during the first year of high school. And so, Shen Jun arranged for her to do all the comprehensive test papers from the first year of high school that were mixed with concepts for the entire semester. This would enable him to identify her weaknesses in every subject, and she would then receive special training to improve her understanding of unfamiliar knowledge points.

Shen Jun took it casually and skimmed through it. He noticed that functions were a significant part of the first-year textbook and carried the most weight in terms of marks. Unfortunately, Wen Nian’s understanding of functions was limited to the most basic concepts, and she struggled with more complex questions that required creative problem-solving.

Shen Jun furrowed his brow slightly. This was the easiest set of questions in the comprehensive test paper. He analyzed the situation objectively and said, “Your application of the formulas is too weak. Previously, when you asked me about specific points of knowledge, I didn’t fully understand your situation. But now, it seems that there are at least half a book’s worth of knowledge points that you don’t have a deep understanding of.”

Mathematics could not be compared to subjects like politics or geography, which could be answered with a routine template. In humanities exams, subjective questions could be influenced by factors such as handwriting, which could lead to the teacher showing mercy.

…..

The science department had always been strict. They followed a no-nonsense approach, and if the students made mistakes, they would receive a cross mark on their test papers without any mercy. The students knew that there was no point in dwelling on their mistakes, so they would move on to the next question without wasting any time.

Wen Nian’s confidence in her ability to solve math problems was greatly affected by the poor performance on the test. She wore a fawning smile as she pressed her palms together in front of Shen Jun, seeking his help. “Please help me, boss. I still want to get into university and experience campus life.”

Tutoring Wen Nian was a challenging task due to the tight schedules and heavy workload involved. Given Shen Jun’s personality, he would typically not accept such a difficult responsibility. However, upon seeing the longing in Wen Nian’s eyes, his cold heart suddenly melted, and he found himself unable to refuse. Shen Jun gazed at Wen Nian, taking a moment to consider his request. “I can assist you in organizing your coursework, but you must complete my assigned homework on time. If you cannot fulfill this agreement, do not seek my help again.”

Shen Jun’s determination was evident in his statement; his words would come back to haunt him if he didn’t follow through.

Wen Nian nodded repeatedly and promised with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely study hard and complete my homework on time!”

Shen Jun created a new study plan for Wen Nian, which included devoting two hours of his lunch break every day to supplementing her theoretical knowledge. He also extended his workday by an hour in the evenings. Additionally, he arranged a special schedule for her to follow.

Wen Nian utilized her class time to work on the practice questions and test papers assigned by Shen Jun. If she encountered any difficulties or had any questions, she would quietly ask for clarification during class.

High school desks had a special feature – students tended to pile all their books on them. This was not only convenient for grabbing books but also allowed them to discreetly do some small activities, such as passing notes or whispering while playing with their phones, hidden under the cover of their books.

In the past month or so since Wen Nian’s reincarnation, she had been studying all the first-year high school textbooks. Therefore, with Shen Jun’s help in gaining a deeper understanding of those concepts, her error rate would be greatly reduced.

As Wednesday approached, it was time to take over the new shop. Wen Nian recommended to her parents that they opt for an original wood-element renovation for the shop. She suggested keeping the decorations to a minimum, aiming for a clean and simplistic look that wouldn’t easily become outdated. This style would create a fresh and hygienic environment.

After finishing her afternoon classes, Wen Nian decided to stop by the shop on her way home. She realized that the Shen Jun’s house was nearby. If she had gone first and Shen Jun happened to pass by the shop while she was there, it would be really awkward.

Therefore, Wen Nian proactively invited him, saying, “My family is getting ready to open a restaurant near the school, and it’s close to your neighborhood. I’m heading over there now to check out the renovation. Would you like a ride?” Shen Jun refused and said, “There’s no need. I will get something to eat before going home.”

After the two of them said goodbye, Wen Nian rode her bicycle and quickly headed to the noodle shop.

Wen Nian parked her bike on the sidewalk by the entrance and stepped inside. She gazed at the newly painted white walls and couldn’t help but feel a sense of oddness. It was as if she had started an entirely new life for her parents, one that was entirely different from her previous one..
