I really shouldn’t have given her electronic devices...

Li Cheng’s eyelids twitched violently as he took the smartphone and tablet from Gray Rain amid her pleading, "First, copy these Chinese texts five times each! Every character must be accompanied by pinyin!"

Gray Rain protested, "I can understand and speak, that’s enough. Why bother learning to read and write?"

"If you can’t read and write, you can’t even understand the instructions and safety signs on household appliances." Li Cheng took the smartphone and tablet under his arm and slammed the bedroom door shut with a bang.

The effect of the translation beans is limited to allowing users to master only the speaking and listening aspects of a language, not reading and writing.

Previously, after seeing something about "no work, no food" on TV, Gray Rain actively volunteered to take on some household chores she could manage, and Li Cheng agreed after much hesitation.

Then he saw Gray Rain cramming the computer tower, laptop, gaming console, and the like into the washing machine for a wash—she couldn’t understand the manual.

"Literacy is essential, abducting a woman with an intellectual disability is a serious crime..."

Muttering to himself, Li Cheng returned to his room, opened the surveillance feed on his computer, and watched Gray Rain’s study progress through a miniature camera in the study.

(After moving out, to prevent burglary and spying by organizations like the Special Affairs Bureau, Li Cheng installed numerous miniature cameras around the home, all connected to an internal network. Whenever he left the house, he also placed strands of hair in the door latches to alert him of any break-ins).

At first, Gray Rain copied the texts earnestly in the study, but got impatient after just three minutes. She repeatedly looked up at the clock and then, with her eyes rolling, stood up and pretended to vomit.
