Brush Up Your Proficiency

#116 - Before opening

"Don't worry. Nannan said Wang Hao is a child who likes to read, and we also know about his family situation. He shouldn't be able to tell anything's up.

It's just a pity that this child couldn't continue his studies. When there's a chance, let Nannan ask him if he wants to go to your school and take the postgraduate entrance exam or something. That way, we can repay the child."

As she spoke, Mother Li felt a bit regretful.

According to her daughter, Wang Hao had the air of a scholar about him, probably cultivated from reading for a long time. This showed that the child liked to read.

Although they hadn't seen Wang Hao in person, their daughter's judgment in this area was never wrong. They naturally felt close to children who liked to read, not to mention that Wang Hao was the benefactor of their entire family.

And the subject of their discussion, Wang Hao, was currently busy saying goodbye to everyone and returning home with his younger sister.

After washing up a bit, he picked up a book and began to enjoy the pleasure of reading.

He had been preoccupied with many things today and hadn't been so meticulous in worrying about things for a long time.

Having grown accustomed to a leisurely and carefree lifestyle, he was truly a little unaccustomed to suddenly becoming so regimented.

Fortunately, he possessed the Reading skill, which allowed him to relax and adjust his mood through reading.

It had to be said that although this cheat skill of Reading wasn't very practical, it could bring him spiritual satisfaction, which was truly invaluable.

"Congratulations, you have successfully read for 1 hour. Beginner Reading Proficiency +1. Current Proficiency: Beginner Reading 46/100"

After reading for four hours, the Reading skill increased by 4 points of proficiency. Wang Hao could no longer resist the drowsiness and turned over to fall into a deep sleep.

The night passed without incident. The next day was the day the restaurant opened.

That morning, Wang Hao hurriedly bought some breakfast and then went to the restaurant with the others.

At this moment, many people had already gathered in the store, and Chang Lei was methodically directing everyone to do the final inspection work.

"Wang Hao, you look really handsome in this suit!"

As soon as Cheng Yufei saw Wang Hao walk into the store, she immediately revealed a strange smile and praised him without reservation.

After all, she had chosen this for Wang Hao. If Wang Hao looked good in it, it meant that her taste was good.

Although he heard the meaning of praise in Cheng Yufei's words, Wang Hao was still a little embarrassed and said, "It's the first time I've worn it, it feels a bit awkward!"

After speaking, he couldn't help but scratch his head.

He sighed inwardly, thinking that if it weren't for today's opening ceremony, he wouldn't be willing to dress like this. It felt too awkward to him.

Wang Lan was naturally the first to notice Wang Hao's unnaturalness and had been comforting Wang Hao along the way.

Actually, there was nothing wrong with the clothes themselves, but Wang Hao felt a bit restricted after wearing them. This was because he was used to wearing casual clothes for a long time, which made him feel a bit awkward.

"It looks good, really handsome."

Li Nan praised sincerely.

Hearing Li Nan's praise, Wang Hao silently accepted his current attire.

Nourished by last night's health-preserving feast, Cheng Yufei and Li Nan were both full of energy.

The biggest change was in Li Nan. Originally, her body was relatively weak, but now her complexion was rosy and she was radiant.

She ate much more than usual at the dinner last night, and even Cheng Yufei couldn't help but remind her to eat less.

However, eating a large amount of Wang Hao's health-preserving dishes made her clearly feel that her previous weak aura had been greatly improved, making her much stronger.

She could sense without going to the hospital for an examination that the "little darling" in her body was gradually weakening, which made her very happy. She couldn't stop smiling, and her whole person became radiant and energetic.

And in Li Nan's eyes, Wang Hao at this moment was wearing a well-fitting suit, looking particularly handsome and dashing. She originally had some personal appreciation for men in suits, not to mention that the person in front of her was her benefactor, Wang Hao.

Just then, a loud voice suddenly interrupted the few people's chat, the voice with an obvious sarcastic tone: "Oh, Little Feifei only opened such a small restaurant, I thought it was so big!"

Hearing this sentence, everyone couldn't help but frown, secretly muttering in their hearts, who would say such disappointing words early in the morning?

They all turned their heads to look, only to see a tall woman with a highly recognizable appearance walking towards them.

When Cheng Yufei saw this person, her eyebrows instinctively raised, as if she was instantly aroused to fight, and she greeted her without showing any weakness.

"Oh, who is shouting so early in the morning, it turns out to be our 'Fragrant Concubine'! Why, didn't you go to the drama troupe to perform today? What are you doing running to my little shop?"

Cheng Yufei looked at the person with a playful look, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes. Her voice was not loud, but it was enough for the other party to hear.

Being called by her nickname by Cheng Yufei made Liang Meng instinctively impatient, and her previously arrogant attitude became angry.

Li Nan explained to Wang Hao, who looked confused, that the person Cheng Yufei called "Fragrant Concubine" was named Liang Meng, a well-known rebellious figure in Cheng Yufei's circle.

She had an restless heart since she was a child, always liked to try new things, and disdained traditional ideas.

When she was a child, when playing house as the Fragrant Concubine, Liang Meng poured a whole bottle of perfume on herself, making them unable to attend class, and the smell in the classroom did not dissipate for several days. Later, she was jokingly called the Fragrant Concubine by her classmates.

This nickname accompanied Liang Meng for a long time, becoming her unique label.

Whenever someone mentioned this name, everyone would think of the naughty girl.

As she grew up, very few people called her by her nickname anymore. Only Cheng Yufei would call her that when the two were arguing. The two had been at odds since they were young, and they would always argue every time they met.

"Although these two often don't spare each other's feelings, they are still classmates who have played together since childhood. Actually, their relationship is okay. When Liang Meng had an accident before, Feifei also helped to persuade her. They just don't leave any face for each other."

Li Nan said with a smile.

Although Li Nan was also in their circle, she didn't pay much attention to some messy things. Cheng Yufei told her this information just now.

After hearing this, Wang Hao's brows relaxed, thinking that it would be good if they didn't come to cause trouble. After all, the first day of opening was for good luck, and everything would be smooth.
