Back to reality, just think of it as a holiday.
Moreover, He Tiantian wasn’t sure what the next novel world would be like.
What if it introduced another dangerous or malicious character?
"I wasn’t sleeping, just dozing off a bit!"
He Tiantian turned her head and smiled at Zhou Zixuen.
Soon, the evening self-study session began, and though it was called ’self-study,’ it was normal class time in the second year of high school in the county.
The English teacher stood on the podium, teaching in standard American English.
He Tiantian, who had studied abroad in the USA in the last world, suddenly heard the familiar intonation and felt a strange sense of intimacy.
However, compared to her proficiency, the young teacher on the podium, who claimed to have Tem-8 proficiency, seemed a bit lacking.
Foreign Language is a practical subject, and if you don’t practice regularly, it’s easy to fall behind.
He Tiantian made up her mind to rest more in reality, but she couldn’t stop studying completely.
Also, in a few days, it would be the National Day holiday.
In the dorm, her roommates had been discussing the past couple of days—
After the holiday, should they travel or should they travel?
Traveling during the Golden Week is definitely a foolish act.
But, usually lacking holidays, if you want to go out and wander, it can only happen during holidays.
And actually, although everywhere is crowded during Golden Week, from another perspective, this congestion also speaks of liveliness, of a festival atmosphere.
Young people value the sense of occasion, even knowing that going out these days might end up being lonely, they still can’t resist trying.
Zhou Zixuen and Ma Siqi were already discussing going to a seaside city in the province, while Wu Xiaohan and Liu Qian were planning to visit popular internet attractions in the provincial city.
Chen Nan didn’t speak, but judging by her usual frantic studying attitude, she would likely stay in school and continue studying over the seven days.
He Tiantian: ...Staying in school is also an option.
It’s just her alone, which seemed a bit lonely.
He Tiantian didn’t fear solitude, but she had just lost her aunt, and it seemed like her biological parents had abandoned her in the county. Teachers and some neighbors looked at her with pity.
Of course, He Tiantian knew most of these people meant well; they genuinely felt pity for a child abandoned by her parents and unloved by relatives.
But as the person concerned, He Tiantian didn’t want to see such looks.
And she certainly didn’t feel pity for herself.
Just, it’s better to avoid such situations if possible.
He Tiantian didn’t want to stay alone in her dorm to receive people’s sympathy.
Hmm, going out costs money.
He Tiantian did have some money, but she couldn’t spend all of it in one go.
She had already broken ties with her biological parents, and in case there was an emergency requiring money, those two wouldn’t bother about her.
He Tiantian didn’t want to turn to them for help.
It’s not about pride, but about having a "contractual spirit."
Since He Shengli had already paid alimony and fulfilled his legal parental duties, He Tiantian couldn’t ask for more than that.
"How about finding a part-time job to earn some money and pass the holiday?"
"If it’s the kind that allows going out, that would be best. Leaving the county to change the scenery wouldn’t be bad!"
While the teacher went on and on, He Tiantian appeared to be looking at the blackboard with her eyes open, but her thoughts were roaming freely.
After evening self-study ended and she returned to the dorm, it was almost eight o’clock.
He Tiantian waited for a gap while her roommates washed up and browsed information on her phone.
Having experienced four "Small Worlds," He Tiantian had acquired skills in Foreign Language, Martial Arts, and Archery, not to mention a lot of life experience and wisdom which need not be elaborated here.
Now, finding a part-time job or making some money wasn’t too difficult for her.
He Tiantian casually browsed a few professional forums, still undecided about which skill to use to earn money and pass the holiday.
"Eh? Tiantian, are you looking for a part-time job as an interpreter? Is your English very good?"
Zhou Zixuen, who was quite tall, passed by He Tiantian and without trying, caught a glimpse of the information on her phone screen.
Zhou Zixuen couldn’t help but be curious.
Interpreting is not ordinary translation; it requires a certain level of proficiency in a foreign language.
After all, there’s no time to consult a dictionary or cheat with electronic devices during live interpretation.
Zhou Zixuen carefully eyed He Tiantian, aware that her new roommate was not only beautiful but also seemed transformed.
