Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Do You Think I Can Ascend to the Heavens? (6)_1

"A blade can cut through flesh, but the heart can cut through the soul. Even a blind man can do anything he sets his heart on!" Pei Qin stood up, looking impatiently at him.

Mo Heng silently repeated, "A blade can cut through flesh, but the heart can cut through the soul?" His heart suddenly clenched tight.

He didn’t let Pei Qin find him more work to do, instead Pei Wendong sent him back.

After the 15th of July, the hot weather was almost over.

Now, Fang Liuming could easily run three laps around Taiping Town without any trouble. After checking his progress, Pei Qin had Pei Yuan find some old cloth to make two sandbags, and told Fang Liuming to tie them to his legs while running every day.

Holding the two sandbags, Fang Liuming was a bit confused and finally understood the implication of Pei Qin’s words that ’it’s not just as simple as running.’ Once the bags were tied to his legs, even walking felt heavy, let alone running.

"This is how I trained!" Pei Qin patted his shoulder.

Fang Liuming frowned with distress. He took the sandbags back and tried them out. It was a struggle just to complete one heavy lap, where he could previously run three laps with ease. But thinking of how Pei Qin, a young girl, could do it, and that Pei Yuan and Pei Qian had also trained this way, he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Feng Bo watched as Pei Qin busied herself in the noodle shop’s kitchen every day and left immediately after closing, barely having a few words to spare; he felt a bit stifled. For Qixi festival, he had planned for everyone to make dumplings together for fun, but Pei Qian said she needed to prepare offerings of clothes and goods for her mother for the upcoming Zhongyuan Festival, and she needed to get ready in advance, foiling his well-laid plans.

Unable to share intimate words even on Qixi Festival, Feng Bo’s mood darkened when he saw Pei Qian following Pei Qin around with unfriendly eyes. He took the opportunity to talk to Pei Qin when he could.

Running a noodle shop meant Pei Qin wasn’t as free as before; she was constantly busy and had to teach several Little Radishes as well. She had no leisure to chat with him.

She had just fried some peanuts and before she could deliver them to the county town, someone was already knocking on her door.

Pei Qian thought it was Mo Heng, but upon opening the door, she saw an annoyed and quite irate Wang Ting.

Pei Qin had been busy these days and had less time to teach him. Wang Ting had become quite skilled at skateboarding, and Pei Qin had promised that as soon as the weather cooled, she would teach him a few other Unique Skills.

However, Wang Ting had discovered that Chang Yonglin had actually moved to Taiping Town and was living at Pei Qin’s house, which made him very unhappy!

"Why is Chang Yonglin living at your place?" he couldn’t help but question her as soon as he saw Pei Qin.

"He’s attending the town school!" Pei Qin replied.

Wang Ting’s little face tensed. The Chang’s house could certainly afford a teacher, and there was also a school in the county. He didn’t need to come to this small town to attend school. Surely it must be because Pei Qin was personally teaching him that he moved into her house!

Seeing his angry expression, the corner of Pei Qin’s mouth twitched slightly, "I fried some peanuts, do you want any?"

"I don’t want any!" Wang Ting said sullenly, his eyes accusingly fixed on her.

She seemed as if she had committed something monstrously wrong. Pei Qin invited him in, "Then come in and sit down!" She served a plate of Drunkard’s Peanuts, a stack of sugar-fried peanuts, and a bowl of rice milk.

Wang Ting glanced at it and continued to glare at her, angrily declaring, "I want to move in too!"

"Uh..." Pei Qin looked up, assessing her own home. Could it be that their small courtyard was some kind of geomantic treasure spot? Why did everyone want to move in?

"That really won’t work! Apart from the fact that we don’t have enough space, you moving in would indeed be a problem!" Pei Qin spoke to him earnestly.

Wang Ting’s face turned stormy with irritation, "Why can Chang Yonglin do it, and not me?"

"You are studying to earn scholarly honors. If you move here, what about your studies? Besides, would your family even agree to it?" Pei Qin looked at him, raising an eyebrow.
