Chapter 43 Parent-Teacher Meeting
While wiping the water, Jiang Ning took the opportunity to touch it a few times, but unfortunately it was through her clothes.
If only these cumbersome clothes weren't there.
However, as if Shen Mo could hear her thoughts, he suddenly took off his vest, revealing a fleshy color in front of her. Due to years of training, her skin was not white but a healthy bronze color.
Jiang Ning's eyes widened, and she even forgot to wipe herself.
Her hand was suddenly grabbed and placed on his strong, muscular abs.
Jiang Ning understood what he meant and used a handkerchief to wipe the water off his abs little by little.
She wiped very slowly.
Shen Mo looked down and could only see a small part of the thick hair. His gaze changed when Jiang Ning touched his skin.
While wiping the water, Jiang Ning thoroughly examined the abs in front of her.
She thought she had controlled her expression well, but Shen Mo still caught the slight smile on her lips.
Jiang Ning and Shen Mo went out together.
Just as the two stepped out, the door of Commander Li's house across the street opened, and Li's wife led her daughter out.
Upon seeing Shen Mo and Jiang Ning, she took the initiative to greet them, "Little Shen, Jiang Ning."
Jiang Ning responded politely.
After exchanging greetings, Sister Li took her daughter and went out.
Before she had taken two steps, Jiang Ning heard the little girl's clear voice say, "Mom, remember to come to my parent-teacher conference this afternoon."
Li's sister-in-law replied to her daughter with a hint of helplessness, "I remember, I remember, you've mentioned it to me so many times."
Jiang Ning, who had only taken two steps in the opposite direction from Sister Li and the others, suddenly stopped. She turned around and walked towards Sister Li, calling out to them.
Approaching them, Jiang Ning squatted down and asked the little girl, "Yuanyuan, is your school having a parent-teacher conference? Is it for all the students in the school?"
Li's daughter's name is Li Yuanyuan.
"Yes." The little girl nodded emphatically. "The teacher said this is a parent-teacher conference."
Since the resumption of the college entrance examination, the focus on education has been quite intense. Schools naturally hope that students who have the opportunity to attend school will become more and more successful and contribute to the country's development.
Therefore, the primary school in the residential compound holds a general meeting of parents every month to encourage parents to pay close attention to their children's learning progress.
Sister-in-law Li asked Jiang Ning curiously, "Didn't your Zhiqi tell you?"
"Sigh." Jiang Ning sighed and shook her head, saying, "This child doesn't want to trouble me."
Sister-in-law Li patted Jiang Ning on the shoulder and said, "Zhiqi is a good boy. We can see how good you are to him, and he can feel it even more himself."
Jiang Ning suggested to Sister-in-law Li that they go to the parent-teacher conference together that afternoon, and Sister-in-law Li readily agreed.
In the morning, Jiang Ning went to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic and told Grandpa Huang that she had something to do in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, Jiang Ning went home, took a shower, chose a light-colored dress, a light blue fitted dress, and then found a hairband to braid a loose and simple side braid.
After braiding, loosen the braid so it doesn't stick so close to your scalp.
With a few wisps of hair framing her face, Jiang Ning touched her smooth skin. She had been applying skincare products like Snow Cream and Pechoin every day, and her skin had become even whiter and more delicate.
She wore light makeup, which made her features even more striking and prominent.
Having worked in the countryside for twenty years, her hands were still a bit rough, so she planned to make some hand cream to make her hands white and tender.
Everyone loves beauty, and she was no exception.
Jiang Ning wore a pair of Mary Jane flats and only left the house at the time she had agreed to meet with Sister Li.
As soon as she stepped out the door, Sister Li was already there. Her eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Ning's beautiful figure.
Jiang Ning is pretty, and she looks even prettier with just a little bit of makeup.
Seeing how beautiful Jiang Ning was, Sister Li couldn't help but glance at her eldest daughter beside her, then turned her head away in dismay. It was as if she couldn't bear to look at her. Her eldest daughter had been admitted to university and was going back to school today.
I usually live in the dormitory and only go home on weekends.
She thought she had raised her daughters very well, but when her eldest daughter stood next to Jiang Ning, it was immediately obvious that she was several shades darker.
"Jiang Meizi, how do you maintain such fair skin? It's so white." She exclaimed, "I wish my daughter were as fair as you."
Jiang Ning's gaze fell on Li Xingyue.
The girl sensed Jiang Ning's gaze and instinctively hid behind Sister Li.
Jiang Ning noticed that this girl seemed quite shy from the first time she met her.
Jiang Ningzai carefully examined Li Xingyue and said, "Her tan is from the sun. She can gradually lighten her skin by using some supplementary products."
Hearing Jiang Ning say that, Sister Li's eyes lit up, "Really?"
Seeing how bright her eyes were, Jiang Ning suddenly remembered the endless whitening products available in the world. Whitening and weight loss are things that girls pursue their whole lives.
Sister-in-law Li asked, "What kind of supplements do you need? Like face cream? I've bought face cream and other skincare products for my child before, but they only make the skin a little moisturized and don't do anything else."
Jiang Ning has researched the ingredients of the cold cream, and it has a slight whitening effect, but the effect is not significant.
She thought for a moment and asked Li Xingyue, "I'm planning to do some skin whitening products, would you be willing to help me try them?"
The sudden urge to try skin whitening products was inspired by what Sister Li said: becoming whiter and more beautiful is an opportunity that women of any age would never miss.
Upon hearing this, Li Xingyue hesitated and asked, "Is...is that alright?"
"Of course, if it really works, I hope you can help me promote it at school."
Jiang Ning knew that she had just been admitted to university this year, and if she could use the student to promote the product, it would be a great help and a business opportunity.
Li Xingyue was in a hurry to get back to school and didn't stay long, while her sister-in-law took Jiang Ning to the government-run primary school.
At this very moment, at the government-run primary school.
The students were all welcoming their parents, while Huo Zhiqi sat in his seat, head down, doing his homework.
Suddenly, a chubby hand snatched his homework and mocked, "With grades this bad, what are you even doing? Didn't your foster mother come?"
Huo Zhiqi looked up and saw Wang Xiaotian standing in front of him, with the homework book in Wang Xiaotian's hand.
This scene overlaps with the past.
When he first started elementary school, he had good grades. At that time, Uncle Wang paid more attention to the grades of the three of them and would ask them how they did after each exam.
Back then, he had excellent grades and was always first in his class, while Wang Xiaotian and Wang Xiaodi didn't like studying and always ranked low in exams.
Uncle Wang praised him many times and even gave him rewards. Later, Wang Xiaotian and his friends would tear up his homework every time and forbid him from doing or handing in his homework.
At first, they just harassed him to prevent him from handing in his homework, but later they warned him not to get good grades or they would beat him.
His grades began to decline, even falling to the bottom of the list. From then on, Uncle Wang never praised him again, and his teachers disliked him more and more.
He was singled out for criticism at every parent-teacher meeting and used as a negative example.
Huo Zhiqi remained silent and did not speak.
Wang Xiaotian waved the notebook in his hand, "Sure enough, Grandma was right. Your adoptive mother is no good at all. She's the most vicious one. She often beats you and doesn't give you food."
Huo Zhiqi clenched his fists at his sides, and just as he was about to punch Wang Xiaotian in the face, a female voice suddenly rang out at the classroom door.
"Zhiqi".
