"No need. Actually, I didn't like the story Liu Mei told me at all, but in order not to make her sad, I forced myself to listen to it."

Xiang Baiwei held her chin with one hand and looked at Jiang Sui with a smile, "Let me tell you, Liu Mei's stories are boring, not at all as interesting as the amateur troupes I watched before."

Jiang Sui blinked, then looked away in panic.

Looking at a beauty under the lamp, she really has a different charm.

Seeing him look away, Bai Wei felt a little doubtful.

"Jiang Sui?!"

Xiang Baiwei waved her hand in front of Jiang Sui's eyes twice: "Have you ever heard Liu Mei tell stories?"

Jiang Sui shook his head: "I'm not familiar with her, so of course I haven't heard of it. Besides, I've read a lot of books myself, and I don't like listening to stories."

"That's a shame. I see she really wants to tell you a story."

Xiang Baiwei deliberately provoked him with words, wanting to see his flustered and guilty expression.

Jiang Sui, who felt that Bai Wei's topic jump was inexplicable, turned his gaze away: "Why should I listen to her stories? The stories that you like to listen to are nothing more than those folk stories, which are not to my taste."

"Yeah?"

Xiang Baiwei was puzzled. She thought about what Liu Mei had planned for her and forced Jiang Sui to marry her. What was her purpose? If Jiang Sui had not been framed by her, would he and Liu Mei have been together in the future? Xiang Baiwei could not think of a reason, and she was too lazy to focus on these two people.

She walked behind the door, took down the cross-body bag hanging on the wall, took out the stationery she bought at the supply and marketing cooperative today, and placed them all in front of Jiang Sui.

Jiang Sui looked at the brand new paper and pen in front of him with a look of surprise.

"You bought it for me?"

"Well, you usually work hard to teach me when I'm reading, so these are my reward for you."

"I don't need so much, we can each take half," Jiang Sui divided the stationery into two parts and pushed one of them to Xiang Baiwei, "You can use these. Your handwriting... is weak and has no strength. Use them to practice more."

Although they are not suitable as husband and wife, to be fair, Jiang Sui is an exceptionally good teacher.

At least Xiang Baiwei can learn a lot by following him.

Xiang Baiwei had already felt this after only a few days of marriage.

Speaking of studying, Xiang Baiwei suddenly realized that at this time, as a rural girl, she suddenly said that she wanted to go to college... wasn't it a bit too abrupt?

It was because she had just been reborn and her brain was still dizzy that she didn’t notice such a big flaw.

In order to avoid trouble in the future, Xiang Baiwei decided to take this opportunity to cover up this flaw.

"Jiang Sui," Xiang Baiwei deliberately lowered her head to organize the paper and pen, fearing that her eyes would reveal something, "I said before that I was studying for the college entrance examination. Did you think it was outrageous?"

Because Xiang Baiwei had her head down, she didn't notice that Jiang Sui, who had been calm, had a change in expression.

But the change was so subtle, and the room was so dim that it was impossible to see it unless you got very close.

"It's not strange, nor do I think it's outrageous. I think you are very smart, have a long-term vision, and can plan for your future."

Jiang Sui picked up the enamel pot beside him and poured two cups of water. He handed one cup to Xiang Baiwei and said, "Although the college entrance examination has been restored for many years, the country still needs a large number of talents in the future. It is really rare for you to have such an idea."

Xiang Baiwei, who had lived her life again and knew what major events would happen at certain time points, felt sincerely that Jiang Sui was really a smart man when she heard this.

Few people can stand in the torrent of history and predict the direction of the future.

But Jiang Sui can.

He is really not an ordinary man.

The gap between the two is too big.

Although Xiang Baiwei was not stupid, she had never considered studying hard and taking the college entrance examination in her previous life.

She was only focused on keeping Jiang Sui firmly at home, by her side, and guarding against his relationship with Liu Mei.

No wonder their marriage, which was already on the verge of collapse, went straight to the abyss of collapse.

"Then do you think I can get into college? If I keep studying like this, do I really have a chance? Can I succeed in one try?"

Xiang Baiwei looked at Jiang Sui curiously, wanting to verify how smart he was.

"I think you can do it," Jiang Sui patted the table lightly, "What you should think about now is how to learn the knowledge I teach you. As for whether the enrollment policy will change, I will tell you in time."

So considerate?

After listening to this, Xiang Baiwei's mood, which had been ruined by Liu Mei the whole day, improved a lot.

Jiang Sui is a good man. If you don't have a marriage partner, being friends with him is really a good choice.

Such an outstanding man cannot be taken advantage of by a vicious woman like Liu Mei who has ulterior motives.

How about I help Jiang Sui find a woman who is equally outstanding and worthy of him when I become rich in the future? Jiang Sui looked at Bai Wei staring at him in a daze, and couldn't help but touch his face: "Is there something on my face? You keep staring at me."

"I noticed that you look much more handsome under the lights. You are so good-looking. Before you went to the countryside, there must have been many girls in the city who were secretly in love with you, right?"

At this moment, Xiang Baiwei did not notice how sour her words were.

Jiang Sui lowered his head to flip through a book, a faint smile flashing across his eyes: "Yes, there are quite a few, but I don't like any of them, and I rejected many of them."

Haha, quite arrogant.

I think it will take a lot of effort to take him down.

For example, myself in my previous life!

At night, there were lightning and thunder, and Xiang Baiwei was awakened and turned over and sat up.

Her movements created a breeze that lifted the curtain between them.

Jiang Sui, who was also awakened by the thunder, saw Xiang Baiwei sitting up and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm fine. The thunder was so loud that it scared me awake!" Xiang Baiwei lay down again, pulled the thin quilt tightly around her body, closed her eyes and fell asleep calmly.

Jiang Sui, who was on the other side of the curtain, was a little worried. He lifted the curtain and came closer: "Are you scared?"

"How is that possible? I grew up in the countryside and have experienced louder thunder than this. What's there to be afraid of? I was simply startled awake."

Jiang Sui showed disappointment on his face.

Why isn't she afraid?

If Xiang Baiwei was afraid, he could just go with the flow and act like a hero to save the damsel in distress.

Jiang Sui, feeling regretful for having lost a good opportunity, returned to the other side of the curtain in disappointment.

Lying there, praying silently, Xiang Baiwei just said it stubbornly, but she was actually scared in her heart.

He was still praying in his heart, hoping that the thunder outside would be louder, preferably loud enough for Bai Wei to come over and ask him for help, even if it was just to shake hands.
