She no longer needed to doubt whether Chen Zhong was going to teach her or not. It was confirmed – he was treating her like a disciple and instructing her, despite not having said it explicitly, his actions had made it clear.
“Grandpa...” Tang Yuxin put down her book in hand and ran over, pulling at Chen Zhong’s hem. She lifted her little face, blinked her eyes, and displayed a charming innocence. She was used to being young again, accustomed to starting over, and had also learned to adorably play cute and obedient.
“Grandpa, is there any medicine that can make me grow taller? So that Xinxin can be as tall as Dad?”
She asked in her milky voice.
Chen Zhong rubbed her head.
“Silly girl, if you grow as tall as your Dad, no one would want you.”
She looked really pitiful with tears dotting her eyes, and a large tear trickled down her cheek.
“Grandpa, can I still grow taller without having to write?”
“No,” Chen Zhong lengthened his face, just like when Tang Yuxin first saw him, aloof, haughty, and of course, bad-tempered.
Tang Yuxin nibbled on her finger and rolled her eyes at her childish behavior, realizing she had to play the whole card. She would have to give in deliberately.
She sniffled, “Then Grandpa, I’ll learn to write, I want to grow tall, I don’t want to be as short as Uncle Pingwa.”
Pingwa was a villager. Standing only 149 cm tall, he was short and fat and looked like a watermelon. He was over thirty and still couldn’t find a wife. Whenever the village children did not eat their meals properly, they were warned that they would end up like Pingwa – unwanted by anyone.
Of course, Tang Yuxin was one of them.
Recalling her past life when she was only 152 cm tall, just making it over 150 cm, Tang Yuxin felt like crying, even in her dreams.
