Chapter 464: Shall We Meet Up?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
An exhibition once again refreshed everyone’s impression of Mo Chu.
The unyielding pride on her body did not seem to have been suppressed by the fact that her gene rank could not be determined! She was still the same smiling and generous girl from back then.
The love displayed in front of the One-star Venue had blinded everyone’s eyes!
The majority of the netizens exclaimed, “In Mo Chu and Ning Yiyuan, I see love again!”
Elder Ning rarely paid attention to the news on Starnet. This time, he watched the video that the netizens had shot over and over again.
In his eyes, his grandson, who was always calm and collected, was so lively in the video. The light in his eyes seemed to be even brighter than the sunlight!
He even kissed Mo Chu in public.
The feeling of happiness and warmth could be clearly seen on his face…
“Little Chen,” Elder Ning closed his eyes slightly and sighed, “Do you think… I’m too stubborn?”
The old man sitting next to him, Chen Zhi, used to be Elder Ning’s subordinate. He had followed him for decades. Until Elder Ning retired, the two had always kept in touch.
After so many years of friendship, who would not know who was who?
Hearing Elder Ning’s question, Chen Zhi did not answer directly.
He just stared at Ning Yiyuan in the video and smiled with relief. “This kid is much more lively than he was a few years ago!”
Exactly!
There were only two men in the Ning Family, Elder Ning and Ning Zhenhai. However, both of them came from the military, and they taught their children the same way.
It could be summed up in two words — Iron-blooded methods!
Although Ning Yiyuan only joined the military when he was an adult, the education he received since young was already military-style!
This Ning Yiyuan was like a tough and sharp sword, cold and sharp.
Although he was calm and resourceful, he still lacked a bit of the vitality and hot-bloodedness of a young man.
However, now, he saw it..
“Yes.” Elder Ning nodded with emotion. Even he himself could not deny this point.
This grandson of his had never been tempted before, as if he did not have the tendons for love at all. But ever since he met Mo Chu, his progress had improved by leaps and bounds. Every day, he changed the way he chased after people, there was no repetition!
It was as if he had already decided on Mo Chu from the bottom of his heart! This girl…
“Old Chief,” Chen Zhi seemed to have seen through Elder Ning’s inner struggle, so he eventually added another sentence, “I know what you’re thinking… if the wife of the chief was still here, what choice do you think she would make?”
Hearing this, Elder Ning’s body suddenly trembled!
His wrinkled eyes suddenly became clear, as if he could see the stubborn and beautiful woman from back then…
At the last moment of her life, she was still protecting their child and still smiled at him. “You… have to live well and watch our grandson and great-grandson pass on from generation to generation…”
Those scenes that he thought were blurry suddenly became clear! Even her trembling and bloodless lips were clearly remembered!
Elder Ning clenched his fists and buried his head.
No matter how determined Elder Ning was, even though his hair was dyed white, he still felt bitter when his beloved wife was mentioned!
Chen Zhi let out a light breath and patted Elder Ning’s back, silently accompanying him.
He knew that the old chief was against the two of them being together, perhaps partly because of the Ning Family’s future, but mostly because he wanted to stick to his promise to his wife!
He wanted to watch their next generation on her behalf, the next generation… But he could not say these words, and the scar in his heart could not be exposed for everyone to see!
After a full half a day, the old man finally raised his head and looked at the video that was still playing. He looked at Mo Chu, whose face was slightly red, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up.
“If Jun was still here…” The old man’s voice suddenly choked with sobs. If he did not pay attention, he would not have noticed at all. “She would also like this child. She… has always liked such a delicate and pretty girl… Back then, she even said that if there was a chance, we could…”
The old man could not say the rest.
He raised his head and looked into the distance with slightly red eyes. It was as if he could see the girl with a determined face. She was laughing heartily, her eyebrows were raised, and she looked free and easy…
Chen Zhi turned his head and could not bear to look at him anymore.
The Ning Family… This whole family was full of love!
“Okay.” The old man calmed down for a moment before looking at Chen Zhi apologetically. “It’s rare for you to come here, but you actually talked about these old stories with me!”
“How can I?” Chen Zhi chuckled. “Isn’t this all that we can talk about?”
“Yes, yes!” Seeing this, the old man could not help but agree. “Back then, when we first went to the battlefield, we were really cowardly. At that time, I was at the front line…”
Wave after wave of chatter sounded in the living room, echoing…
At the same time.
Mo Chu was extremely busy.
“Can you look at this length?”
“And mine?”
“Isn’t this too thick?”
…
After such a long time, Mo Chu had only picked three people with potential out of tens of thousands of applicants.
As there were not many of them, Mo Chu decided to train them at home.
However, this result… was not ideal.
These three people were all special ability users, though their energy levels were not too high. In addition, they were very interested in Spirit Food, which was why they had come to Mo Chu’s place to register.
Logically speaking, their talent should not be a problem. However, when it came to actual practice, this shortcoming was immediately revealed.
If they were asked to cut a carrot, it would be long and short, thick and thin. When combined with other ingredients, if the energy could not fuse together, it would definitely explode!
Great!
Mo Chu thought of the most inflexible method. She personally made a stir-fried three fresh vegetables.
The carrots and green bamboo shoots were cut into the easiest slices.
Let them use this as the prototype and cut according to it! It had to be exactly the same!
In the end, she did not expect this method to be so effective!
These three people were not as skilled and sensitive as Mo Chu when it came to energy control. However, letting them do as they were told was the easiest thing to do!
“Mmm.” Mo Chu nodded her head in satisfaction as she looked at them one by one. At first, she encouraged them, “Not bad, it’s much better than the last time.”
Then, she pointed out their problems one by one. “Yes, it can be shorter.”
“This is done very well. Keep it up.”
“Look at this. If you cut it horizontally, it will be more suitable.”
…
Mo Chu had never been a teacher before. Now, she finally understood how hard it was to be a teacher. Fortunately, she only had 3 students. If it were 30, she would be exhausted to death!
“Teacher, do you think so?” Wang Shen held his newly cut carrot slices with both hands and stared at Mo Chu expectantly.
“Cough…” Faced with such a sincere gaze, Mo Chu coughed lightly. She really did not have the heart to tell him that he still would not be able to pass this test.
Wang Shen was the one with the worst intelligence among Mo Chu’s three disciples. However, Wang Shen was very honest. He believed that hard work could make up for bad work.
Every day before dawn, Wang Shen had already started practicing with the materials that Mo Chu had given them. The effect was still there, but it was not obvious at the moment.
As the saying went, the Heavens doted on foolish people.
Mo Chu was a little more patient with such a diligent student. She simply reached out and grabbed his big palm that was holding the knife. “Alright, watch my technique. I want to cut horizontally like this. Yes, that’s it…”
“Oh oh!” After being taught by Mo Chu for a few times, Wang Shen seemed to have found something. His eyes suddenly lit up. “I understand. It’s like this…”
Before he could say anything, another cold voice suddenly sounded. “What do you want?”
Hmm… ?
The few of them looked over when they heard the voice. At the door, Ning Yiyuan was staring at them with a slightly cold gaze..
Wang Shen, who was being attacked by Ning Yiyuan’s concentrated firepower, could not stand this kind of pressure. He only felt a deep chill crawl up his spine as he subconsciously opened his mouth to explain, “That… you misunderstood. We didn’t do anything! It’s… It’s true!”
Damn it!
Mo Chu almost fell!
She could not help but turn around to look at this weirdo. You’re the one who said it was weird, okay? We were fine in the first place!
Seeing Mo Chu’s actions, the coldness in Ning Yiyuan’s eyes became even stronger. He almost made Wang Shen kneel down!
“That’s enough.”MoChu turned to look at Ning Yiyuan. “How did you come in?”
“I walked in.” Ning Yiyuan’s eyes were fixed on Mo Chu’s hand that was holding Wang Shen’s hand, not moving at all.
Mo Chu rolled her eyes. Nonsense! Of course you walked in!
“Umm…” Wang Shen hurriedly moved his hand away. Hearing this, he whispered, “I seem to have forgotten to close the door… Sorry!”
“Forget it, it’s fine. You guys can continue practicing.” Mo Chu waved at them and turned around to walk towards Ning Yiyuan. She raised his eyebrows slightly. “Why? Are you… Jealous?”
Initially, he thought that Ning Yiyuan would give her a few excuses. She did not expect that this fellow would agree to it so quickly. “That’s right.”
This time, Mo Chu was unable to react in time.
Ning Yiyuan took a few steps forward and held Mo Chu’s hand tightly. “You… usually train them like this?”
There was a strong sourness in his voice. It was comparable to Mo Chu’s self-made vinegar!
“What nonsense are you talking about?!” Mo Chu reached out and pushed him. “This is the first time I’ve taught them like this…”
“And it’s the last time!” Ning Yiyuan made a firm decision.
When he saw that Mo Chu’s expression was not right, he tactfully pushed her to the side. “Let me tell you, this training of disciples is the same as us training new recruits. We can’t coddle them like this!”
“Show them the examples.” Ning Yiyuan pulled Mo Chu to the sofa, “Get them to practice over and over again. If they don’t know how to do it once, then do it twice. If they don’t know how to do it twice, then do it thrice… In the end, practice makes perfect, right?”
The two of them sat on the sofa together. Ning Yiyuan rubbed Mo Chu’s tender hands again and continued to impart her experience, “Usually, we’ll hold some small competitions. For example, if you’re the first one to complete it, then teach him a single thing… This way, not only can we motivate them, but we can also reduce your burden.”
“You can’t just follow them around all day, right?” Ning Yiyuan revealed his intentions at the end of his sentence. In any case, he just could not bear to see Little Chu get so close to another man, and even hold hands with him?!
Mo Chu naturally understood what he meant. She did not care about Ning Yiyuan’s petty thoughts. Instead, she was touched by his thoughts. There were some aspects that were indeed worth learning from…
“Beep beep –” Just as Mo Chu was deep in thought, the terminal on her wrist suddenly rang.
Mo Chu lowered her head to take a look, and her expression suddenly froze.
Then, she turned his head to look at Ning Yiyuan as if nothing had happened. “Oh right, what do you want to drink? I’ll go get it for you.”
Ning Yiyuan’s gaze was still on the three men in the kitchen. When he heard Mo Chu’s question, he answered casually, “Water will do.”
“Then wait a minute.” Mo Chu turned around and walked towards the kitchen. She avoided Ning Yiyuan’s gaze by twisting her body. Only then did she click on the message on the terminal
“Grandpa Ning: Little Chu, can I meet you? In the library next to the old house. The time is four o’clock in the afternoon.”
Mo Chu took a deep breath and switched the page to the front page..
He handed the water from the kitchen to Ning Yiyuan and the two chatted for a while before Mo Chu said, “Oh right, Teacher Chen Bai seems to be looking for me. I need to go to the laboratory. Can you help me look at these three guys first?”
Ning Yiyuan’s culinary skills were enough to guide these three beginners.
“Sure!” Ning Yiyuan nodded with interest.
When the three people in the kitchen heard this, their faces all turned pale. No way… are they going to train under Commander Ning?
Oh no, this sounds like trouble!
