Reborn in 2006, I met Mr. Zhou from the past.

"Brother Ye, don't be angry. Sister Huang is just concerned about you, isn't she? Come on, let's go get some barbecue." Another guy with an afro quickly tried to smooth things over.

Ye Hua ignored him and followed Su Fengnan and the others. He only looked away when he saw Su Fengnan get into Zhou Chenyu's car and drive out of his sight. Suddenly, a rumor flashed through his mind—Su Fengnan was being kept. He couldn't remember who had told him, but it seemed like he vaguely remembered hearing it.

In Shengli Residential Area, Zhou Chenyu escorted Su Fengnan downstairs.

"Go back and get some rest early, and don't stay up late tonight." Zhou Chenyu's tone was full of gentleness and concern.

"Okay, bye-bye, Teacher Zhou, see you tomorrow." After saying that, Su Fengnan strode towards the stairwell. Only after she could no longer see that figure did Zhou Chenyu turn around and go home.

As for Jiang Shaoqing, he was called back by the hospital before the fireworks show was over, so Su Fengnan naturally didn't see him in the car on his way back.

After dinner, they watched fireworks together, and in the days that followed, Zhou Chenyu and Su Fengnan's relationship inexplicably grew closer. Su Fengnan seemed to have opened a door to Zhou Chenyu, and her trust in him increased. After all, being around such a handsome man every day, and getting along so well, even if she didn't dare to have any romantic feelings, she would still have some affection for him. And Zhou Chenyu's attitude and tone towards her also became more gentle and doting.

The writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone he gave her were immediately put to use by Su Fengnan. The ink sticks produced a fragrant and beautiful ink, with a subtle and pleasant aroma; the brush was easy to use; the Xuan paper held the brushstrokes well without causing ink to bleed; the inkstone was exquisitely crafted, finely polished, and produced ink easily. Using them was truly a pleasure, and this gift was truly to her liking.

On Wednesday, after Zhou Chenyu finished explaining the problem to Su Fengnan, he got up to leave and suddenly asked tentatively, "Have you eaten the chocolate? How was it? If you like it, I'll bring you some more next time."

Su Fengnan was still processing the questions she had just been given when the question caught her off guard for a second before she could react. She closed her notebook, stood up, and said with a smile, "Mmm, delicious! I carry two with me every day; they're perfect for a mental boost when my brain isn't working properly."

In fact, Su Fengnan suffers from mild hypoglycemia; she can't tolerate even the slightest hunger, as it causes her heart palpitations and dizziness. In her previous life, she didn't know she had hypoglycemia until she overheard others talking about it in Chengdu. Since being reborn, she always carries fruit candies with her, eating a couple whenever she doesn't have time to eat a meal.

When Zhou Chenyu heard her say, "Carry two with you every day," she couldn't suppress the smile on her face: "I'm glad you like them. I'll bring you more next time. You should go take a nap; you have class this afternoon, so I'll head back now."

Su Fengnan wanted to say that she didn't need to bring it, that she could buy it herself. But before she could say it, Zhou Chenyu had already walked out the door, and she didn't even have a chance to see her off.

Time always flies when you're studying. Su Fengnan, a humanities student, has a photographic memory, making her homework a breeze. She spends most of her extra time on math and writing. After Zhou Chenyu tutored her, her grades improved somewhat; she can now immediately identify the formula for many types of problems she previously struggled with.

Before she knew it, it was the weekend again, and Su Fengxia finally came home this week. Su Fengnan had already bought the ingredients to make chicken soup, to nourish herself and her sister. In her previous life, she had neither the money nor the awareness to do so. Now that she had been reborn and knew about her health issues, she was determined to start taking care of herself now and would never mistreat herself again.

At five o'clock on Saturday morning, before dawn, Su Fengnan's biological clock naturally woke her up. She got up and did a set of warm-up exercises in her room, which were also used for breath control when she studied vocal music. Although she no longer studied vocal music, the habit remained.

After warming up, she went to the kitchen and got busy. She put the chicken in a pot of cold water, and added astragalus, goji berries, and red dates as seasonings, which are perfect for gentle nourishment.

When Su Fengxia got up, she smelled a rich aroma of chicken soup. She ran to the kitchen and, sure enough, her sister was the best: "Sister, you made chicken soup? I want chicken noodle soup!"

"Okay, then let's have chicken noodle soup. I also made green chili sauce, red chili sauce, tomato sauce, and minced meat, so we can also have it mixed with noodles."

"Then I'll have half of each!"

"Greedy." Su Fengnan said, but still ladled a bowl of chicken soup for Su Fengxia and placed it on the kitchen counter. "Hey, have a bowl of soup to warm your stomach first."

"Thank you, sister!" Su Fengxia picked up the bowl, blew on it, and took a small sip. "Mmm, sister, this soup is delicious."

"If you like it, drink more. There's more here."

In no time, two small bowls of mixed noodles and two small bowls of chicken soup noodles were cooked. The two sisters each had a bowl of mixed noodles and a bowl of chicken soup noodles, eating and chatting at the same time.

"How are you feeling at No. 1 High School? Are the teachers and classmates easy to get along with?"

"It's alright, but the school is very strict, though the learning atmosphere is pretty good."

"You're being too vague. Don't you have any specifics?"

After finishing the last bite of noodles, Su Fengxia put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth with a tissue: "Sister, don't worry! You've been studying so hard, and I've already gotten into No. 1 Middle School. I won't waste such a good learning environment."

"How should I put it... In our class, the teacher speaks very quickly and doesn't repeat the same point over and over again. After class, not many students go out to play; everyone stays at their seats to continue studying."

"Wow, they're already working this hard at the very beginning. They'll be working even harder in their senior year! No wonder so many students from No. 1 High School get into university every year."

"Can you keep up with this learning environment?"

"Even if I can't keep up, I have to! Luckily, I have two days off this weekend, so I'll stay home and catch up on what I missed and preview the new material."

"Okay, you can have your own plans. I'm going out in a bit; I've arranged to study with a classmate. I'll be back in the afternoon. You can have lunch by yourself, so don't wait for me."

"Oh, may I use your computer?"

"You can finish learning it."

"Thank you, sis!"

This week, Su Fengnan and the others are still having tutoring at Ning Xiaojun's house. Ning Xiaojun's parents have gone to the countryside, so only the siblings are at home.

For Su Fengnan, she had already finished most of her homework at school, so coming here was just an extra challenge for herself. Although she had a photographic memory, she knew that ability wasn't solely based on talent. Every problem she was working on now was preparation for the college entrance examination, and she had to be well-prepared.

"I've finished writing. I'd like to go to Xinhua Bookstore. Anyone want to come along?" Su Fengnan asked, glancing at everyone.

Ning Xiaojun checked the time; it was only 11:30. "Ah, Su Su, wait a minute! Have lunch at my house before you leave. My mom prepared the food early this morning; we can just heat it up and eat it."

Ning Xiaojun repeatedly urged Su Fengnan to stay, and Su Fengnan couldn't refuse her, so she had no choice but to stay.

Yang Chao's vocabulary improved significantly this week; Qiu Wen is a quiet boy with average grades across all subjects, and he understands things instantly with just a little guidance—a model student; Ning Xiaojun's math also improved a lot, after all, the tutoring wasn't for nothing, but she struggles with memorization. Since this can't be taught directly, Su Fengnan shared her memorization tips—finding keywords, specifically logically related keywords. The three boys found Su Fengnan's sharing very helpful.

Lunch was a sour soup hot pot, which Ning's mother had specially prepared for the children that morning. After lunch, Su Fengnan helped clean up and wash the dishes before leaving Ning Xiaojun's house with a few classmates.
