Chapter 196: Chapter 196: Poor Ghost, Please Thank Me

"I remember who owns that car now."

Having walked a good distance, Yu Jingting suddenly spoke.

"Who?"

"The Tobacco Factory Director Fan Hua. I heard about him when I was moving bricks at the construction site."

There were only a few cars in the city, owned by a handful of important figures. Yu Jingting had gathered quite a lot of little brothers in the past month, so he was fairly well-informed.

"It seems he also wants to send his child for piano lessons here, but I doubt the professor will agree."

"How do you know?"

"Well, his wife is too bossy. She seems to think the professor would agree if they offer some benefits. The professor doesn’t fall for such tricks."

Without staying for too long, Suizi had already predicted the future.

Based on her interactions with the professor over this period, she knew the old lady couldn’t be bought with money.

If the professor were greedy for money, it wouldn’t be so tough to win her over. After all, Suizi had even offered her heirloom fermented bean sauce making technique.

"Artists of her level may not regard money as dirt, but they certainly have spiritual pursuits. That couple, flaunting their wealth, impolitely, wouldn’t be given a thought by the professor."

"About this couple, there are numerous rumors in the neighborhood that they have no ability of their own but have connections in Beijing. They got into trouble in another place, and then the Fan family transferred them to our Tobacco Company."

Everyone knew that working in the tobacco industry was a lucrative job; you could tell by how pompous this couple was, with their personal driver and expensive car.

"What can we do? Some people just know how to choose their births, with wealth and status inherited from their ancestors. We can’t compete with that."

Suizi took the gossipy stories with a pinch of salt and didn’t bother much.

"By the way, the thing you were mashing with mung beans a couple of days ago seems to have gone sour. Our mother can’t decide whether to dump it."

"You can’t throw it! It’s fermented soy sauce! We have to go home immediately!" Suizi got tense and ran back home.

It took time for the soy sauce to ferment; it was almost done, and she needed it to win over the professor.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, they heard Jiaojiao crying.

Wang Cuihua was trying to soothe the crying child.

"Are you a tiger? That thing doesn’t even smell like it’s drinkable. How could you taste it?"

Jiaojiao was crying miserably.

"I didn’t think my sister-in-law could fail in cooking too! Everything she cooked was delicious. I thought this thing that smelled bad might taste wonderful."

Suizi was absolutely dismayed.

Did Jiaojiao just taste the fermented soy sauce she was fermenting?

Jiaojiao had scooped a spoonful and tasted it, but got psychologically scarred by the taste, and started crying.

"You were supposed to boil it first. Who told you to drink it raw?"

"Sister-in-law!" Jiaojiao rushed into Suizi’s arms, her little face crumpled up.

"Suizi, will this thing not be rancid after it’s cooked?" Wang Cuihua asked with curiosity.

"Um, it’s going to be spoiled too, but in a fragrant way..." Suizi didn’t know how to describe its complex flavor.

"How can anyone like this?" Wang Cuihua was puzzled, with a daring assumption in her mind.

Could it be that her daughter-in-law was trying to please the professor, by making her have diarrhea?

To give her a potful of rotten, stinking mess, aiming to upset her stomach?

"Every food has varied taste, and there are people who adore this taste. For example, my mom loved it..."

Suizi suddenly stopped talking. Why did she suddenly think of her mother?

Wang Cuihua and Yu Jingting knew not to mention Chen Lijun in front of Suizi. But today, she has brought it up herself.

Seeing Suizi’s face distort, Yu Jingting wanted to laugh but kept a straight face.

How stubborn this little woman was, tsk.

Simply because of a slip of the tongue, mentioning Chen Lijun, Suizi wore a gloomy face all night.

After dinner, she took Yu Jingting to night school.

She had two classes a week, which Yu Jingting constantly accompanied her to.

Usually, they used to chat and joke on their way to class, but today, Suizi didn’t say a word due to her gloomy mood.

"Ah, teacher Xiaochen, you seem to be feeling down."

After auditing a few lessons, he picked up some English words.

Suizi doesn’t respond, so he continues.

"It’s okay, wait until tonight, I’ll up you, and you’ll be fine."

"Up what?" Suizi didn’t understand.

"You~~~~"

Suizi was so angry that she pushed him.

"Is this how you learn English?!!!"

Yu Jingting has a good memory and comprehension, but he tends to make a mess of things.

When serious matters enter his mind, they often come out distorted.

She was quite annoyed, but Yu Jingting just smirked.

She’s still so adorable, much more so than when she was half-dead awhile ago.

Thanks to his antics, Suizi was no longer upset, and they were about to reach school.

A car honked crazily from behind. Yu Jingting pulled Suizi to the side of the road, and the car passed them closely, the driver shouting out from the window:

"Poor thing, can’t you watch where you’re going?"

Yu Jingting picked up a stone to throw, but the car was moving too fast. He missed.

"Damn it! In a rush to get reincarnated?!" Yu Jingting cursed.

Fortunately, he was quick to embrace Suizi. Otherwise, she might have been hit.

He recognized that car, it belonged to Fan Hua!

"Can’t escape the monk, can’t escape the temple!" He decided to wait outside the Tobacco Company tomorrow. If he doesn’t smash the car’s windshield, he’s not Yu Jingting!

"Forget it, it’s not worth getting angry over someone with no manners." Suizi advised.

"A snob thinking he’s superior to us just because he has a fancy car? Does that make him a good person?"

"Not necessarily." Suizi added silently, You might’ve owned a luxury car worth millions in your past life, but that didn’t make you any better.

She already ran into Fan Hua twice today. The third time wasn’t a coincidence, it was intentional.

As soon as Suizi arrived at the school, though she had not entered the classroom yet, she was immediately summoned to the principal’s office.

Yu Jingting was planning to wait for her in the classroom, when his eyes caught a glimpse of the flashy sedan. He was surprised.

Isn’t this the car that almost hit his wife?

Wow, this place has such fancy things? Yu Jingting ran his tongue across his molars and a vicious glint filled his eyes.

The almanac says all matters are unfavorable today, this car may face some misfortune.

This trouble, named Yu Jingting!

"Suizi, come here. Let me introduce you to someone. This is Fan Hua, the director of the tobacco company. He has something to discuss with you."

The school principal’s obsequious smile shrunk the two pimples on his forehead which Yu Jingting had angered, he almost distorted his face trying to look pleasing in front of the influential man.

"Me?" Suizi was puzzled.

He is a high-ranking factory director with authority over thousands, why would he need the help of a small night school director like her?

"Did you make the fried liver at Professor Sun’s house? My wife’s birthday is next week, I want you to come over and make a bowl, the price is negotiable." Fan Hua sat on the sofa, swinging his legs.

His face read: you should be grateful, pauper.

Such a trivial matter doesn’t usually require a person of his standing to get involved.

Since he heard that Suizi works here, he happened to be passing by and decided to drop in to ask the principal about it.

Fan Hua’s arrogant tone made Suizi frown.

What an annoying person...

Suizi searched her brain for some biting remarks, aiming to find a suitable one to describe him.

Before she could respond, Fan Hua, disconcerted by her silence, was about to speak when he was taken aback by her face.

"You, you?!"

This face, why does it look so familiar!!!
