Chapter Thirty-Six: Independence Has Begun!



The setting sun shone through the window, bathing the small room in a warm, orange glow.

Ye Linchen's stomach rumbled at just the right moment, and she realized with a start that it was time to eat again.

She put down her pen, stretched, and looked down to see that she had already flipped through more than half of her thick math textbook.

All the knowledge points are clearly remembered in my mind.

She felt no fatigue from studying; on the contrary, she felt a sense of satisfaction, like she had eaten braised pork for lunch.

However, learning is only spiritual nourishment; she also needs to supplement her physical nourishment.

"Food is as essential as iron; you'll get hungry if you skip a meal!"

Ye Linchen hummed a little tune as she entered the kitchen.

She quickly made a cabbage and egg drop soup, then heated up the rice and braised meat from lunch, and dinner was ready.

While boiling water and making soup, Ye Linchen didn't rest. He took out a small English vocabulary notebook from his pocket and made the most of his time to memorize words.

The vocabulary notebook was filled with English words and their Chinese definitions, written in neat and beautiful handwriting.

She noticed that Feng Linlin had a small vocabulary notebook that she carried with her and would take it out to memorize words whenever she had time.

She didn't have a notebook that small, so last night she cut a blank exercise book into four equal parts, sewed them together, and made one herself.

Although it's not the most aesthetically pleasing, its functionality is quite good.

Ye Linchen made a plan for himself.

Every day, I have to memorize fifty words and phrases, and also recite two texts.

Write these fifty words in a notebook the night before, and memorize them the next day.

In the short time it took to cook the soup, she had already memorized twenty.

It seems that achieving the goal is not a problem at all.

After the meal was ready, Ye Linchen brought the food to the table, took out a Walkman that Feng Linlin had lent her from her schoolbag, plugged in the earphones, and pressed the play button.

A standard British female voice came from the tape, reading an English text aloud.

While eating, Ye Linchen quietly read along with the audio from the tape, trying his best to listen to what was being read.

English is her weakest subject, so she needs to spend more time and effort on it.

Now that the opportunity is so good, she has to seize it.

After finishing her meal, Ye Linchen quickly cleared away the dishes, combed her hair, and prepared to go out for a walk nearby to clear her head before returning to continue studying.

She remembered there was a newspaper stand not far away, which updated the day's newspapers daily for nearby residents to read for free.

The job postings at the bottom of the newspaper were an important source of information for her job search.

She plans to go there every day after meals to avoid peak hours and also to avoid the Ye family.

Ye Linchen closed the doors and windows, put the keys in his pocket, and went out the door with light steps.

Meanwhile, things weren't so easy for the Ye family.

They were waiting at home for Ye Linchen to come home for dinner.
