Chapter 9: Chapter 9, The Promise With My Aunt
Bai Zhi had no answer in her heart.
Of course, she didn't particularly want to know the answer either.
For her, the relationship between them was just right at the moment.
She quickly tidied herself up, then hugged Chen Nan and whispered, "Go to sleep early, we need to go to school tomorrow!"
Chen Nan hummed a response, gradually falling asleep to the unique scent of his aunt.
It had to be said.
The bed at the foot of the mountain was indeed soft and comfortable.
He slept soundly until six the next morning, feeling refreshed and inexplicably relaxed.
He looked beside him.
His aunt had already gotten up, leaving his side empty, but the bed and pillows still carried her scent.
Thinking back on the events of last night, he felt it was somewhat absurd.
But for some reason.
He really liked the absurd and unrestrained feeling of last night.
After washing up, he put on a long robe and went down to the dining room where his aunt had already prepared sandwiches, milk, and a plate of fruit.
"Hurry up and eat, I'll take you to school later," Bai Zhi, wearing a white shirt, her ample bosom seemingly on the verge of popping the buttons, gave an impression as if they could burst open at any moment.
Paired with a black miniskirt, it outlined her slender and sexy legs, giving Chen Nan a strong stimulus early in the morning.
Draping her long hair casually behind her, she exuded the dignified and elegant demeanor of a career woman, yet did not lose a touch of sexiness.
Seeing the intense gaze from Chen Nan, Bai Zhi couldn't help but recall the events of last night, her face quickly turning a shade of crimson, looking provocatively desirable: "If you score well on your college entrance exam, Auntie promises to help you 'release' one more time!"
Bai Zhi also thought the events of last night were absurd.
But she couldn't entirely blame herself.
After all, she had drunk some wine last night and being a woman who felt somewhat empty inside, such behavior was inevitable when emotions ran deep.
Chen Nan chuckled and said, "I'll try my best to score well!"
After breakfast.
Bai Zhi gave Chen Nan a brand-new mobile phone, then drove him to school, instructing him to eat well at noon before driving away.
Chen Nan then entered the school campus, which was bustling with lively, vibrant faces everywhere.
Wherever he went, his attire attracted the eyes of his classmates, all of whom showed surprise at his robes.
However, he acted as if nothing was amiss, not showing any discomfort or stage fright despite the many gazes.
When Chen Nan arrived at senior class 1, a boy named Wang Zhen exclaimed, "Damn, didn't I tell you yesterday to cut your hair and change your clothes? Why didn't you listen?"
"Aren't you worried about getting Ms. Zhu angry by ignoring her words?"
The eyes of the crowd looking at Chen Nan were filled with displeasure and even disdain.
The arrival of this retake student was already affecting the average performance of the class, let alone his disregard for Zhu Keren's words.
Facing such a person, they didn't hold much fondness.
Just as Chen Nan was about to speak, he saw Zhu Keren stride into the room.
She was dressed in a well-tailored black suit that accentuated her shapely figure.
The form-fitting design subtly highlighted her proud bust. The slightly open collar revealed a hint of sexiness.
Below, a pair of slim-fit trousers perfectly wrapped her long legs, accentuating her sexy peach-shaped buttocks even more thrillingly.
At that moment.
The classroom was as silent as if one could hear a pin drop.
Zhu Keren gave Chen Nan a bland look and then surveyed the classroom before saying to a handsome boy wearing black frame glasses, "Liu Jun, move to the back and let Chen Nan take your current seat!"
"Oh, okay," Liu Jun obediently agreed, then began packing his things to go to the back.
Chen Nan then sat in Liu Jun's seat.
Many boys in the class immediately showed signs of envy.
Because Liu Jun's desk mate was one of the three famed beauties of the school, Liu Yiyi.
Not only was Liu Yiyi tall and stunningly beautiful, but she also ranked in the top five of her grade, making her a true scholar.
This raised a huge question in the minds of all the students in the class.
Chen Nan hadn't followed the teacher's instructions to cut his hair or change out of his robe, which should have provoked Zhu Keren to fury.
Yet not only did she not get angry, but she even arranged for him to sit next to Liu Yiyi.
Speaking gently, Zhu Keren said, "Yiyi, although Chen Nan has taken a two-year break from school, his previous grades weren't bad. I hope, if he encounters topics he doesn't understand, you could explain them to him."
"Sure," Liu Yiyi said, her face showing no emotion.
However, when she smelled the woody fragrance emanating from Chen Nan, her eyes suddenly brightened.
The scent was unique and pure, bringing a sense of peace and relaxation to the soul. It even had a sweet fragrance.
It was as sweet as honey, irresistibly intoxicating.
It pierced through the soul, bringing inner peace and calm, soothing her anxiety and making her feel relaxed in both body and mind.
This caused her to feel an inexplicable fondness for Chen Nan, as if the distance between them had narrowed.
After Zhu Keren left, Liu Yiyi looked at Chen Nan, her lively beautiful eyes filled with curiosity, "What brand of perfume are you using?"
"Ah?" Chen Nan was a bit confused, "I haven't sprayed any perfume."
Liu Yiyi puzzled, "Then why is there a special fragrance coming from you?"
Chen Nan sniffed himself, "It might be the scent of sandalwood that got into my clothes while I was meditating and chanting in front of an incense burner."
"You really meditate and chant scriptures in the mountains?" Liu Yiyi asked with a face full of curiosity, eager to know about the life of a cultivator.
Chen Nan was an open book.
Seeing Chen Nan and Liu Yiyi talk so enthusiastically, the boys in the class became unsettled.
Knowing Liu Yiyi's reputation for being aloof, usually ignoring classmates who asked her questions, and here she was, chatting away with Chen Nan, how could they not be envious?
In this way,
Chen Nan became a student of Class One, Grade Three.
Despite his hairpin and black robe making him stand out,
Chen Nan's performance in class still won him the favor of several substitute teachers.
He listened attentively and humbly sought knowledge.
No matter what the final exam results would be, at least his attitude was very correct.
At six in the evening,
after school, Chen Nan took a taxi to his aunt's house.
Although night classes for senior three students lasted until ten o'clock, with the college entrance examination imminent, he urgently needed to go home for additional tutoring.
At the same time, he also received a call from his aunt, who had to go on a business trip unexpectedly and asked him to take care of himself.
Chen Nan couldn't express how happy he was to hear that his aunt had gone on a business trip.
Especially considering Zhu Keren would soon be coming to tutor him privately, he felt a strong sense of anticipation.
This time, surely there would be no one to disrupt his and Zhu Keren's arrangements, right?
