Chapter 705: Number 9

“Great!”

Jiang Wanying cheered and tightened her hug around Tang Hao. She leaned close and kissed Tang Hao’s cheek.

Tang Hao felt awkward when she moved.

“Don’t move!” Tang Hao said quickly.

It was not easy for him to concentrate and finish the dish.

“I’m going to change my clothes. Wait for me!”

After saying that, she let go of her hands and went into her bedroom.

She came out a few minutes later, dressed in a nightgown. She twirled around and asked shyly, “Do I look good?”

Tang Hao looked up and was dumbfounded for a while.

“Yes!”

He answered in a daze.

She smiled and said happily, “It’s my first time wearing it. I bought it especially for you!”

As she spoke, she walked over and looked at the kitchen counter, “You’re done cooking? Let’s eat!” Then, she laid the dishes on the table before pulling Tang Hao to a chair.

“Let me tell you, you know Teacher Zhang in the university, right? She’s really annoying. She’s always criticizing me and even saying that I’m setting a bad example for driving an M4! How infuriating!

“She’s married to a useless husband, yet she’s jealous of others!”

She chatted about some trivial matters with Tang Hao over dinner.

Tang Hao smiled.

Jiang Wanying’s new car had indeed caused a sensation in the university. Many posts had appeared in the Tieba forum, and even the cla.s.s was discussing it.

One had to know that Teacher Jiang was the most beautiful teacher at Z University. She was the dream lover for many male students, and she was extremely popular.

The boys would even discuss what clothes she wore, let alone driving a new car.

Many people guessed that Teacher Jiang found herself a rich boyfriend, and many male students had felt sorry for themselves. Later, they found out that Teacher Jiang’s family found themselves a fortune.

That also made Teacher Jiang even more popular than ever.

“You don’t have to bother about her!” Tang Hao said.

“I know! I’ve been ignoring her!”

After dinner, Tang Hao did the dishes. Then, Jiang Wanying pulled him over to the couch to watch TV.

She snuggled in Tang Hao’s arms and curled up.

From time to time, they would tease each other for a while.

Looking at the time, she smiled and said, “Alright, your detention ends here. You can go home now!”

She stood up and carefully tidied Tang Hao’s clothes.

“Remember! You promised to come to River Delta City during the summer vacation!”

After seeing Tang Hao off, she leaned against the door and stood there for a long time.

Suddenly, she touched her lips and smiled sweetly.

She did not ask for too much from him. She would be content if she got to meet him once in a while and share a moment of intimacy.

After all, they were teacher and student. Such a relations.h.i.+p could not be made public.

As for what would happen in the future, she did not want to think about it.

The future was too far away…

After standing there for a long time, she closed the door, curled up on the couch, and hugged the cus.h.i.+on tightly.

The cus.h.i.+on carried a faint scent of plants. It was his body scent.

She lay there and slowly closed her eyes. After receiving his text message, she felt at ease and went back to her bedroom.

“Good Night!”

After saying good night to each other, she put down her phone and went to sleep peacefully.

On the other side, Tang Hao was curled up on the couch. He looked at the message on his phone and chuckled.

After browsing the Internet for a while, he sat up and took out the medicinal herbs he got from the auction yesterday. He carefully identified each medicinal herb and labeled each stalk with its name.

Then, he organized them into categories.

The process took him a long time.

There were millions of medicinal herbs in the world. Even if he memorized the Scripture of the Divine Herbalist, some of them were not so easy to identify.

After identifying all of them and confirming their effects, he began to sort the medicinal herbs according to each pill recipe.

Every time a recipe was complete, Tang Hao became a little more excited.

By about four o’clock in the morning, he finished sorting all the herbs. He took out several portions of herbs and began to make pills.

When the sun rose, he had finished making several pills. He picked up his backpack and went to cla.s.s.

In the afternoon, he received a call from Tamamo.

“My dear little brother! Do you miss me?”

Her gentle and charming voice came over the phone. It was extremely attractive.

Tang Hao coughed lightly.

She smiled coyly. “I’ve missed you…”

“Are you in Huaxia?” Tang Hao said.

“No, I wanted to go, but I don’t dare to go now. Isn’t there some big Artifact formation over there? I don’t even have an identification pendant yet. I’m afraid that if I go, I’ll be repelled.

“My dear little brother, you’re so amazing! I heard that you’ve broken through again. Is that true? Also, were you the one who set up the formation?” Her tone of voice was tinged with admiration.

“Yes!” Tang Hao was embarra.s.sed.

“Wow! You’re really amazing. I admire you so much!” She sounded like an infatuated little girl.

Tang Hao became even more embarra.s.sed.

“Well… it’s nothing. By the way, you don’t have to worry about anything. Didn’t I give you a bead earlier? That also works,” Tang Hao said.

“Really?” She said, surprised.

After a pause, she said in a delicate voice, “But I still want a pendant. One with a nice number.”

“What number do you want?”

“Do you have a number closer to the front?”

“I have numbers 1 to 10!” Tang Hao said.

He originally planned to give non-Huaxianese cultivators numbers greater than 10,000. However, she was a special case.

“How about number 9? I like the number 9!”

“OK!”

“That’s great! Please keep it for me. I’m too busy now, so I can’t go to Huaxia. You don’t know how scared those people from the Ministry of Defense are.

“I’ll go and look for you soon! When that time comes, remember to wait for me!”

With that, she giggled charmingly and hung up.
