Chapter 237: 230: She Matures a Bit Late
“Okay, that’s fine, then I’ll go for a regular class.”
When Mr. Xu heard these words, he no longer had the idea of the top-tier class.
“You two should study hard and make me proud,” Mr. Xu reached out and ruffled his daughter’s hair.
“Dad, don’t worry,” Xu Miaomiao thumped her chest firmly, not afraid to flatten her well-developed breasts.
“Dad, I’ll definitely study hard, attend university, and make you proud…”
Mr. Xu clenched his teeth, wishing he could strangle his daughter.
Tang Yuxin dared not speak. She rubbed her forehead, really not knowing how Xu Miaomiao, being so silly, managed to live to this age without having been beaten to death by her dad.
Tang Yuxin returned home. With the school matter settled, she didn’t have to worry about it anymore. She picked up her clothes and walked into the bathroom. People in the village were still bathing in public baths, but their family had installed their own. Except when it was too cold in winter, they could bathe at home, which was much more convenient.
She walked in, turned on the shower, and the water droplets broke against her body, like dew on flowers, gently sliding off her skin.
Suddenly, she hugged her chest, feeling a warm sensation.
She sighed, seeming to have hit puberty a bit late.
Fortunately, she seemed to be developing now.
As for her body, she didn’t have big expectations. She had already grown to a good height, though it was only 161 cm, it was an average person’s height. Even if she was flat-chested, it didn’t matter. She didn’t need to rely on her breasts, she relied on her brain.
However, given the current situation, she should be developing now.
When she came out, the fragrance on her body was fainter, leaving the natural smell of shower gel. She sniffed herself, but couldn’t smell anything.
Walking into her room, she took out a book and placed it on her knees, then began to flip through the pages.
The wind blew in from the outside of the window, lifting a corner of the light purple curtain and letting in some specks of sunlight, falling on her hair. As long as she lifted her head slightly or turned around gently, everything seemed peaceful.
The summer vacation this year was much longer than for ordinary students. However, for them, this lengthy summer vacation was not a time for relaxation, let alone playtime.
After so much had happened in Water City this time, it seemed that no one wanted to play anymore. For these few years, they had not really enjoyed their holidays, but had spent them in extra classes and studying.
But strangely, all three of them never felt tired.
The most terrifying thing about Tang Yuxin was not that she could help you catch up on your lessons and get good grades, but that she made you fall in love with studying, made studying a part of your life, an instinct as natural as eating. This kind of instinct was something many people desired.
Maybe it was because of her brewed herbal tea, the faint cold fragrance that she naturally exuded, or her voice, as well as the contentment and calmness she felt when studying.
That must be why people felt so comfortable around her.
Studying with her was indeed a joy.
During this summer vacation, they had already reviewed all the Grade 10 courses. And Mr. Xu had even invited a university student to tutor them. The university student was on vacation with nothing to do, so she came to teach them.
Although Tang Yuxin had attended high school, she had been away from school for a long time. The Grade 12 curriculum was harder than the lower grades’ curriculum. She was not sure if she could teach these two well.
As long as she doesn’t lead them astray.
Now that there was a university student, it was very good news for them. They could ask whenever they didn’t understand. Of course, the most important thing was that high school English was significantly more difficult than junior high school English.
Except for Tang Yuxin, the English of Xu Miaomiao and Chen Lidong was relatively poor. Now that there was a university student, there was someone to converse in English with them. The more they spoke and practiced, the better their English became.
Other people’s summer vacations were for playing, but their summer vacations were for studying. For these young teenagers, it was indeed tough; sometimes, people really can’t control themselves.
After all, people aren’t machines. They have their own laziness and their own complacency.
Everyone has this, including Tang Yuxin. However, she was now trying to overcome it. Every overcoming was a success. Obviously, she had more successes than failures. But that didn’t mean she could succeed every time. Like today, she didn’t feel like getting up. She had forgotten the time when making medicine last night, so she went to bed late. So that’s why she was so lazy in the daytime.
By the time she got up, it was already late in the day.
She sat up, yawning, and tears were still hanging from the corners of her eyes.
Then the door was abruptly opened from the outside.
Xu Miaomiao ran in hastily. Seeing Tang Yuxin’s current appearance, she was completely amazed. Who could fault her? Tang Yuxin had always been icy cold, like a piece of frozen jade, never showing much emotion. They were experiencing the throbbing of love for the first time in their youth, and even she had someone she was secretly in love with. But it seemed like Tang Yuxin didn’t have such feelings. She treated boys the same way she treated girls; even her gaze never changed.
But now, while yawning, her long eyelashes were slightly shimmering. Because she had just woken up, her face was flushed, making her white skin and delicate features more attractive. Her clothes slipped down a bit, revealing her beautiful collarbone. As a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, her figure was just beginning to develop. Maybe her figure hadn’t fully matured yet, but this youthful vitality was something mature women didn’t have.
She looked like a fresh lotus, delicate to the point it could snap with one touch.
Also, that fragrant… scent.
“Yuxin, I really love you,” Xu Miaomiao threw herself at Tang Yuxin, planting a kiss on her face.
Tang Yuxin extended her hand and pressed it against Xu Miaomiao’s forehead, “Keep your distance, you pervert.”
Xu Miaomiao sulked and silently stood aside.
Only then did Tang Yuxin start to get dressed. When she came out, she had brushed her hair into a big braid, her face expressionless as usual.
