Chapter 74 - The Power of Inheritance

Xia Yuanfang smiled and shook her head: "Where are the Holy Church Bodhisattvas? Chujian, it wasn't those gods and bodhisattvas who saved me, it was you, it was aunt's little Chujian, who saved me."

"Me? How could I?" Xia Chujian pointed at her own nose, asking in disbelief, "Aunt, I know you dote on me, but there's no need to attribute everything to me, right?"

"Your Advanced Nutrient Solution..." Xia Yuanfang skirted the issue, humorously saying, "Look, I drank all the Advanced Nutrient Solution you put on the dining table just now, and it's really amazing. After drinking two tubes, I felt my head didn't hurt, my chest wasn't stuffy, I wasn't panting when I walked, and I enjoyed my food..."

Xia Chujian commented without any politeness: "...Aunt, that's too much, the acting is exaggerated."

Xia Yuanfang laughed especially happily.

She went to the kitchen and started busying herself.

Xia Chujian followed her, never leaving her side, watching her mix the dough, knead the dough, watching her heat the oil in the pot, watching her fry the Fried Dough Sticks.

When the golden and fragrant Fried Dough Sticks came out of the pot, Xia Chujian's saliva flowed uncontrollably.

While munching on the Fried Dough Sticks, she said to Xia Yuanfang, "Aunt, I've never seen anyone make Fried Dough Sticks in restaurants outside. Like Hot Pot and Sausage, they're things you can't even find on the Star Network."

Xia Yuanfang drank her porridge nonchalantly, saying, "These are all very common foods, I'll teach you later. However, they are all recipes passed down from our Xia Family ancestors, and cannot be passed on to outsiders. Don't search for them randomly on the Star Network either."

"Oh, I understand!" Xia Chujian suddenly realized. "That's why! I won't search for them in the future, and I will definitely not let others learn them! They are our Xia Family's unique recipes and delicacies, and I will definitely not pass them on!"

Xia Chujian happily ate the Fried Dough Sticks.

Xia Yuanfang looked at the physics book, and the twenty-point test paper under the physics book, hesitating to speak.

Xia Chujian felt guilty, so she pretended not to see it, chattering away with a smile, but not mentioning anything about studying.

In the end, Xia Yuanfang didn't ask anything, only saying, "Then I'll go to the bedroom to rest, and you should rest early too. Do you have to go to school tomorrow?"

Xia Chujian nodded obediently: "Yes, I do, because I took a leave of absence for a while to do a mission in the Exotic Beast Forest."

Xia Yuanfang didn't ask any more questions, reminding her, "You'll be taking the National Higher Education Entrance Examination next year, and I'm going to make a study plan for you. If you can't keep up at school, I'll tutor you."

Xia Chujian hurriedly declined: "...Aunt, there's no need, I will study hard at school!"

"It's okay, I'll give you some predicted questions." Xia Yuanfang said calmly, "The questions I predict will definitely get you into college."

Xia Chujian suddenly felt that the Fried Dough Sticks in her mouth were not so fragrant anymore.

"Aunt, don't talk about things that affect my appetite when I'm eating." She took a sip of water. "Actually, it's okay if I don't go to college."

"You are my Xia Yuanfang's niece, how can you not go to college?" Xia Yuanfang was very insistent on this. "I told you not to worry, I'll start looking for information tomorrow and give you predicted questions."

Xia Chujian's eyes darted around, busy changing the subject, and suddenly asked, "Aunt, did my parents go to college?"

Xia Yuanfang: "..."

She was really stumped.

Xia Yuanfang stared at Xia Chujian, slowly shaking her head.

Xia Chujian was happy instead, her eyebrows dancing as she said, "Aunt, look! My parents didn't go to college, so it's impossible for me to go to college either! It's heredity! Heredity! Right?"

Xia Yuanfang knew that Xia Chujian had misunderstood, but she didn't intend to explain, saying calmly, "That's not how heredity is explained. Besides, there's still me. If I say you can go to college, you can go."

Xia Chujian put down the Fried Dough Sticks and sighed, "Aunt, you predicted the right questions for me when I went from elementary school to junior high school, and from junior high school to high school, I know. But college is different, this is the strictest National Higher Education Entrance Examination! The National Higher Education Entrance Examination with unified papers from the Five Major Planets of the Beichen Empire!"

Xia Yuanfang chuckled: "You don't need to consider that. What you need to consider is which university you want to go to."

Xia Chujian: "..."

She was speechless and could only give Xia Yuanfang a thumbs up.

Okay, aunt is not one to give up until she hits a wall.

Xia Chujian knew her own capabilities in academics.

Xia Yuanfang knew that Xia Chujian didn't believe her, and she didn't try to persuade her, only saying, "Chujian, lend me some money."

"Between us aunt and niece, what's mine is aunt's. Saying 'lend' is too formal." Xia Chujian immediately transferred 500,000 to Xia Yuanfang.

Xia Yuanfang glanced at her, "I'll buy a Quantum Optical Brain first, do you want one?"

Xia Chujian smiled and showed the latest model Quantum Optical Brain wrist watch carrier on her wrist: "Aunt, I already have one!"

Xia Yuanfang subconsciously thought that Xia Chujian had bought it for herself.

After all, Xia Chujian had too much money in her hands.

Half an hour after Xia Yuanfang placed the order, a drone delivered the Quantum Optical Brain.

Xia Chujian was surprised to find that, in addition to the wrist-worn device, Xia Yuanfang had also bought a large, high-definition physical monitor, as well as a retro-style keyboard and mouse!

"...Aunt, you still use these outdated things?"

"I'm used to it." Xia Yuanfang said casually, "I need to do research to see how I can help you with exam predictions."

Xia Chujian could only clasp her hands at Xia Yuanfang to express her admiration, and said, "Aunt, I won't discourage you. You go ahead and make your predictions, I'll go back to my room to study."

She thought that she had to go to school tomorrow, no matter how much she hated those textbooks, she had to take them out at this time to review and preview them one by one.

To be honest, she had no confidence or preparation for next summer's National Higher Education Entrance Examination.

Because she felt the pressure, she studied until seven o'clock in the evening before putting down her textbooks and standing up to stretch.

Just as she was about to wander around the room, she heard a ding, and her Quantum Optical Brain wristband showed that a message had arrived.

Xia Chujian clicked on the virtual display screen to bring up the message.

It turned out to be a very formal message from the Beichen Empire Special Security Bureau.

The message gave her an address and asked her to go there at seven o'clock tomorrow morning to be questioned by the Beichen Empire Special Security Bureau.

Xia Chujian felt that this message looked like a scam.

She checked the address on the Star Network and found that it was indeed the official residence of the Beichen Empire Special Security Bureau in Mulan City, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

It shouldn't be a scam.

As she was pondering, the Quantum Optical Brain beeped again.

This time, it was their team's communication channel calling her.

Ye Shijie had initiated a holographic video call that all team members could participate in.

Xia Chujian hurriedly closed her bedroom door before clicking to connect.

Soon, the virtual figures of Ye Shijie, Li Fu, Song Mingqian, and Ping Qiong appeared in Xia Chujian's bedroom.

Xia Chujian's figure, of course, also appeared on the virtual display screens of the team members.

The five people were having an online instant video call.

Ye Shijie said, "I just received a message from the Special Security Bureau, did you guys receive it?"

...

That's right, I said a few days ago that this book would be renamed, and now it has been changed, hasn't it? The current book title is "I'm Rewriting the Classic of Mountains and Seas in the Interstellar Era". Actually, the content is still the same, it's just that this title seems more appropriate. I hope everyone likes it. \(^o^)/~.

See you tomorrow!
