She Only Cares About Cultivation-Chapter 992 - 856: Super Star 30 (Part 2)

Hua Yan didn’t know what kind of discussion they had after leaving. Although she regretted not being able to participate in the shooting, which delayed her rise to fame, everything involves gaining and losing, and you can’t fight it.

Given that she had no drafts saved, homework unfinished, and lacked piano practice, Hua Yan spent five days attending classes, practicing, doing homework, and typing away. Since there was ample time in the space, those five days were enough to keep her busy, and after these five days, she went back to her retreat on the 18th.

They started school on August 25th. Hua Yan stayed in seclusion for six days, raising her level to 37, and by then, the summer vacation ended.

Only after she came out of the space did she see Ning Hao’s message, realizing he had returned the day before yesterday but hadn’t heard from her. Luckily, he brought back a lot from his hometown, which helped him scrape by for two days.

Hua Yan hurried to the Ning Family, seeing the kid sitting in the living room watching TV, she felt relieved: "Sorry little brother, I’ve been busy, so—"

"No problem sis, I’ve finished my homework. Can you help me check it when you have time? I brought back a lot of food from home, so we don’t have to worry too much these two days."

They both were due to report on the 25th, with classes officially starting on Monday, the 26th, and now it’s the evening of the 23rd, so that’s how Ning Hao’s calculation of two to three days comes in.

During her retreat, Hua Yan didn’t eat food from the outside world, instead consuming food from within the secret realm, which replenished energy rather than physical strength, so she was actually a bit hungry. When Uncle Ning came, he really brought lots of Northeast specialties.

To increase the freshness of the food, the two elders really spared no expense, vacuum-packing all the food: native chicken, mushrooms, native pork, cured sausage, cured meat, Northeastern Soy Sauce, sour cabbage, spicy cabbage, and so on.

So many local specialties made Hua Yan’s eyes tear up slightly: "They really love you!"

Ning Hao was well aware of that: "So even if I don’t want to go back, I must. With mom and dad gone, if I don’t go back, grandparents will be heartbroken."

Hua Yan patted Ning Hao’s head, glanced at F and M who had just greeted them at the door and were now surrounding them, and bent down to comfortingly pat their heads.

"My grandparents told me to listen to my sister, saying she would take care of my food and clothing, and since they can’t really help out, they’ll try to mail us as many unpolluted things as possible. This sealing machine and vacuum machine were bought by my uncle with his money. They seal everything at home, call my uncle, and he then ships it to us by sea. The postage and packaging costs are enough to buy countless things. I told them it wasn’t necessary, but they insisted, saying it’s their way of expressing care, and having something to do gives them emotional support. Sis, do you think I’m being unfilial?"

"Silly, this isn’t being unfilial. You’re caught in a dilemma. After all, you’re still young and can’t yet take care of yourself, let alone others. That’s why studying is what you should focus on. Only through diligent study can you repay them well. As for grandparents, seeing you doing well makes them naturally happy and healthy, so don’t worry. As long as we visit them more during the holidays, it’ll be great!"

"Sis, I’ve also filled up your fridge, and mine’s full too. These leftovers, I don’t know how long they’ll keep."

Hua Yan looked down and saw two big boxes, moved by the elders’ heartfelt intention.

"No problem, I’ll take them. I’ll figure things out. What would you like to eat tonight? Shall we cook at your place?"

"Sure, let’s have something light. I’ve had too much meat at home, and I’ve gained quite a few pounds."

Hua Yan couldn’t help but laugh, "Alright, I see there are vegetables too, so let’s stir-fry some veggies, make a few sticky bean buns, and cook some millet porridge. How about that?"

Ning Hao nodded enthusiastically, "Sounds good, let’s do it. After all that’s done, sis, you can check my homework."

Hua Yan gave an OK gesture and headed to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients. Seeing this, Ning Hao also came to help, and as they chatted, they brought up the topic of Hua Yan appearing on TV.

"Sis, you’re amazing. I’m so proud of you. My grandparents also feel honored and show your pictures to everyone they meet, saying this is my great-granddaughter!"

Hua Yan was amused, "It’s nothing. I just watched some videos on related topics, so later I’ll teach you some emergency measures. By the way, can you swim?"

Ning Hao nodded, "Yes, I learned when I was seven, but I haven’t practiced in years, so I’m not sure if I still remember."
