Chapter 647 Return to Hometown_1
"Your brother tells me you’re going to be living with your professor for half a month. Remember to help out with chores and not get on your professor’s bad side, okay?" He Teng and Zhilan’s father advised her first, but instantly changed his approach, saying, "No, if she treats you badly, don’t keep quiet just because she’s your professor. I’ve heard many city people are arrogant and look down on villagers; they often bully them..."
"Dad, don’t worry, the professor’s a good person. You don’t need to worry about me being bullied." As it was a holiday, student dormitories certainly wouldn’t allow people to stay. Thus, Zhilan had to choose between the Lin Family’s home or her professor’s place in staff housing.
Considering the fact that Lin Family’s house is often empty and that living with her professor is more convenient, Zhilan chose the latter. This way, she could practice English with her professor anytime, anytime, improving her adaptability and spoken language skills. Also, she could ask the professor about anything she doesn’t understand whenever she had free time.
Studying and living with her professor for ten days brought about rapid improvements for Zhilan. Her professor was someone who shared everything she knew, as long as Zhilan was willing to learn.
In terms of foreign languages, perhaps due to her talent or her own hard work and diligence, Zhilan managed to complete a study plan of fifteen days in just ten days.
Once she had learned all that she had to learn, her professor encouraged Zhilan to return home early to be with her family. Leaving a phone number for Zhilan’s home, she told Zhilan she would let her know when it was time to return.
After getting a few textbooks from her professor, and saying goodbye to her, Zhilan brought quite a few of her things to the train station. But on a whim, she decided to visit He Teng at his troop first. She didn’t call He Teng to pick her up. Instead, she hired a car to take her to the entrance of He Teng’s barracks.
