Qin Nian watched the children jumping around in the courtyard and couldn't help but speak up.
“It’s good for him to be more lively. Regarding Liwen’s studies, his school teacher told me that the child’s learning progress is very fast. I also specially made a test paper for Liwen and the others to do. Liwen and Wang Xing are far ahead of Liwu in their studies. Niannian, if we let Liwen study in a step-by-step manner, I’m afraid it will wear down the child’s talent.”
"Should we let the children skip a grade? The two children have always been together since they were little. Won't they have a hard time adjusting if they are suddenly separated?"
Qin Nian was somewhat worried upon hearing this, especially when she looked at Li Wu.
Don't let this child's carefree attitude fool you. If he suddenly realizes the gap between himself and his younger brother, or if he is looked at differently by others, or misled by some malicious words, he might be in trouble.
Professor Wen also noticed Qin Nian's concerns.
"Actually, you don't need to be so troubled. Children have their own thoughts. I haven't asked the children yet, but I just wanted to tell you first that you are their mother, and this concerns their entire lives. You should know that."
"Yes, I'll come back more often these few days to spend time with the kids and find out what they're thinking."
Qin Nian nodded.
"It's good that you know the truth. We haven't heard from your older brother and Xianjun for a long time. They must have gone to participate in some kind of project. I wonder how they are now."
Professor Wen was a little worried about his son. He was used to hearing from him every month, and the sudden silence for several months made him wonder.
"There shouldn't be any danger."
Qin Nian thought for a moment, and realized that Fan Juan had been taken to the military region several times.
Fan Juan had been picked up several times.
"Comrade Fan Juan, I've already prepared your meal. This is Chef Li's specialty, braised pork."
Liao Yuanjie eagerly carried the tray and delivered the food to Fan Juan.
"Thanks."
Fan Juan accepted it without refusing.
"I should thank you; with your help, I'm making rapid progress now."
Liao Yuanjie grinned, showing off his big white teeth.
When Fan Juan saw Liao Yuanjie's appearance, she thought he looked a little silly, and couldn't help but smile.
"How about it?"
Liao Yuanjie watched Fan Juan pick up her chopsticks with some trepidation.
"Mmm, it's delicious, but it seems a little different."
Fan Juan took a bite of the braised pork and swallowed the food before answering.
"Is the flavor too strong?"
Liao Yuanjie felt his palms were sweating.
"No, it's delicious. It has a fruity aroma and is refreshing. I really like it."
Fan Juan picked up another piece of braised pork, mixed it with a big mouthful of rice, and ate it, demonstrating to Liao Yuanjie that the braised pork was truly delicious.
"You like braised pork with fruit flavor? That's great!"
Liao Yuanjie was excited, while Fan Juan looked on with some confusion. When Liao Yuanjie met Fan Juan's questioning gaze, he immediately composed himself.
"I'll make you this braised pork again next time."
Liao Yuanjie held back his words and spoke.
"Thanks."
Fan Juan smiled and agreed.
After finishing his meal, Liao Yuanjie grabbed the plate.
"I'll put it away. You have a class to teach this afternoon, so you should go back and rest."
Fan Juan is currently living in the female soldiers' dormitory, so it's inconvenient for Liao Yuanjie to go there, and he's also afraid of having a bad influence on Fan Juan.
Before Fan Juan could thank him again, Liao Yuanjie grabbed his tray and strode away.
In the canteen's kitchen, Old Li was smoking when he saw Liao Yuanjie come in, and his face lit up with joy.
"Looks pretty good. You've graduated. Didn't the little girl notice anything different?"
Old Li jokingly started to speak.
