She looked at Shen Yue seriously and said, \"You did well, resisting the temptation of candy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue didn’t understand why Sister Jiang Cheng did this, but she knew she was being praised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng held Shen Yue’s hand and walked into the alley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shen Yue, don’t stand at the entrance of the alley alone in the future. It’s dangerous to encounter bad people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue raised her small head, and her little chubby face proudly said, \"I know! I don’t take things from others, and I don’t go with them. My big brother told me so.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng first affirmed Shen Yue’s cleverness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what if an old grandpa asks you for directions, a three-year-old little sister asks you to take her home, or a strong adult directly knocks you out? What will you do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng’s question scared Shen Yue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can they really do that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng matter-of-factly said, \"These are just simple tricks. There are also schemes by acquaintances. What if someone you know asks you to deliver a message or run an errand? What will you do then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue’s chubby face wrinkled, clutching Jiang Cheng’s hand tightly, afraid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng comfortingly patted her head and said, \"Remember, don’t help anyone asking for help. You’re just a child, let them ask the police for help, and you must never stay outside alone, understand?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue nodded like a little chick pecking rice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng continued to explain to her how kidnapped children might be abused, bullied, and what to do if she really encounters such situations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short, a heap of terrifying yet necessary knowledge entered Shen Yue’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng did this because a month later, Lin Chengyuan’s boss was killed breaking a kidnapping ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the two returned to the Shen Family, Shen Yue let out a long breath, finally feeling a bit relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandma Shen noticed Shen Yue’s pale face and confusedly looked at Jiang Cheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng candidly said, \"I was just educating her about the tricks used by kidnappers and what to do if truly taken.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandma Shen was dumbfounded, wondering what was said to scare the child like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiang Cheng?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng responded, unsure: Did I go overboard?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You should give Shen Xing a rundown too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng immediately discarded her doubts, her eyes gleaming. Grandma Shen indeed resonated with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re right; it’s better to give an enhanced version.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandma Shen nodded repeatedly, saying, \"Yes, yes! That boy isn’t easily scared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean not easily scared?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Shen Xing came running in and heard half a sentence. Jiang Cheng acted mysteriously, \"You’ll find out tonight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Xing pouted but didn’t pursue it, placing the washed vegetables on the cutting board and picking up a knife to help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng washed her hands to help too but was once again chased away by Grandma Shen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Such a small place, why the crowd?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s too hot, go on, go on!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng didn’t get a chance to help, knowing this was Grandma Shen’s way of saying thank you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks for her care towards Shen Xing and Shen Yue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng didn’t pretend to be modest, and when Shen Xing was also kicked out of the kitchen, she started tutoring him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue was beside them, drawing in a book with a pencil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng glanced over and was pleasantly surprised at how well Shen Yue drew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shen Yue, your drawing is really good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue tilted her head and asked unsurely, \"Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course! Trust my judgment. I’m so capable; why would I randomly praise someone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Xing, who was solving problems, paused his pen, resisting an urge to roll his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this praising herself or praising Shen Yue?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister is right!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue’s affirmation left Shen Xing speechless, feeling his sister was a bit silly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s because Shen Yue is smart enough to realize Sister is right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again praising Jiang Cheng indirectly, she took another pencil and drew a little cat next to Shen Yue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue’s eyes were brimming with admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See, if the line looks like this... isn’t it more beautiful?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng guided Shen Yue step by step, and Shen Yue listened attentively, learning quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Xing’s mouth hung open; was this the same sister who gets sleepy after recognizing a few words, uses mostly pinyin for letters, and guesses when reading them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shen Xing, you need to focus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Xing, who was drifting off, got his head knocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He covered his head and pouted, \"What if it makes me stupid?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If one hit makes you stupid, then the brain must just be decoration.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng’s words left Shen Xing unable to retort, seeming a bit reasonable, perhaps?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandma Shen was cooking by the stove, always able to see the three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her smile never faded, feeling so good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, there’s some family warmth here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour later, Grandma Shen called for dinner, and after tidying the table, the three helped scoop rice and serve dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had sorghum porridge tonight, boiled potatoes and eggplant, and spicy stir-fried with sauce, tasting really good with potatoes and eggplant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng had an extra bowl of rice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, Jiang Cheng hurried to night school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the night school entrance, Jiang Cheng chatted warmly with the old man at the door, handing him a handful of fruit candy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man shared lots of insider news with Jiang Cheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which teacher hated tardiness most, which teacher liked flattery...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mister, I have to go inside; we’ll chat tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng waved goodbye kindly and walked towards the classroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night school runs from seven to nine PM, two hours of classes, with two teachers lecturing each day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Current subjects offered include Chinese, math, physics, chemistry, biology, history, geography, politics, and Russian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Russian was newly authorized this year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This special era is nearing its end but hasn’t finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learning any foreign language requires layers of approval.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng had already researched the night school’s courses; Russian would be her breakthrough point to showcase her linguistic talents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, graduating from the night school extension program is equivalent to a high school diploma, and going further to the provincial night school equals an associate degree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jiang Cheng isn’t in a hurry; a high school diploma is enough for now, and the college entrance exam is just in the next couple of years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She plans to cement her place in the translation world during these two years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The extension classes are on the third floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Jiang Cheng entered, the noisy chatter in the classroom quieted down from front to back, step by step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiang Cheng?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Dan frowned, looking at Jiang Cheng at the door, feeling inexplicably nervous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why was she at night school?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Will she expose the Lin family’s issues?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She will definitely speak up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, she must get ahead of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Dan pretended to be surprised and looked in Jiang Cheng’s direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiang Cheng, you’ve got the wrong classroom; the literacy class is downstairs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl next to He Dan asked puzzledly, \"Literacy class?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Dan nodded with a look of understanding, \"You didn’t know, we live in the same compound; Jiang Cheng hasn’t been to school.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng: If you want to seek trouble, it’s really... quite touching.\u003C\u002Fp>",1260,"2026-06-03T05:46:21.509Z",1,"novelbin.me","a54879b51677689f72f521e4e972e0c5cae4b366b36d1573bec7bd765b24fc1c","rich-in-the-70s-i-made-a-rugged-veteran-a-millio-chapter-11","rich-in-the-70s-i-made-a-rugged-veteran-a-millio-chapter-9",340,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frich-in-the-70s-i-made-a-rugged-veteran-a-millio-cover.jpg"]
