Chapter 16

Thinking about this, Jiang Ping could no longer sit still. Suddenly, he pushed away his bowl and chopsticks and stood up, saying, "I'm done eating!"

After saying this, Jiang Ping turned and entered his room without looking back.

Seeing her son's back, Zhu Yun couldn't help but frown slightly and said, "Why is this child so jumpy? He scared me!"

At this moment, Jiang Ping had no time for anything else. He quickly took out the set of ancient Qing Dynasty books and began to absorb the spiritual energy contained within. The spiritual energy in the Qing Dynasty books was naturally more abundant than that in the snuff bottles from the Republic of China period, sufficient to support Jiang Ping in using his discerning eye multiple times.

Jiang Ping soon felt a cool sensation enter his eyes from the ancient books. After he could no longer absorb more spiritual energy, he left the room in large strides, focusing on observing his mother and sister who were still eating breakfast.

However, no matter how hard Jiang Ping tried, he couldn't see any abnormalities on their foreheads. Even in front of his discerning eye, Zhu Yun and Jiang Wei were both normal, neither sick nor about to encounter any unexpected good fortune.

Jiang Wei, feeling uncomfortable under her brother's gaze, pouted and said, "Brother, why are you looking at me like that? Your eyes are weird. Did I grow flowers on my face?"

Zhu Yun also noticed that something was off with Jiang Ping and asked with concern, "Son, what's wrong?"

"Nothing," Jiang Ping couldn't reveal the truth, so he just smiled at his mother and said, "I was just a bit distracted. Maybe I'm a bit tired lately."

Zhu Yun, naturally worried about her son, quickly whispered, "If you really feel tired, go rest for a while. Although the college entrance exam is important, you shouldn't exhaust yourself for it."

Even Jiang Wei quickly advised her brother, "Mom is right. It's not worth ruining your health for the college entrance exam. Brother, you need to take care of yourself!"

The family's concern warmed Jiang Ping's heart. He gave his mother a reassuring smile and said, "I know, Mom! I'll go back to my room and lie down for a while, then start reviewing my lessons!"

Seeing that her son had no intention of relaxing, Zhu Yun exchanged a glance with her husband, and they both saw a look of relief on each other's faces.

Back in his room, Jiang Ping lay on the bed and muttered to himself, "I can't see anything at all. Could it be that because of me, my mother and sister's fates have changed, and they won't get sick in this life?"

Although Jiang Ping hoped this hypothesis would become reality, he was also very clear that it was probably just his wishful thinking. He believed a more likely reason was that his discerning eye could only see someone's recent fortune. To see his sister and mother's fortune six months from now was beyond his current capabilities.

Thinking about this, Jiang Ping felt he absolutely couldn't slack off. He still needed to find a way to earn money and save enough for his sister's medical expenses within six months. The regrets from his previous life must be remedied in this life.

Of course, there were many regrets in this life that Jiang Ping wanted to make up for. Besides his mother and sister's illnesses, the college entrance exam was also one of his regrets from his previous life. Due to the impact of his father's incident, Jiang Ping's college entrance exam results in his previous life were a complete mess, disappointing his parents.

The family's concern deeply moved the reborn Jiang Ping, so he secretly resolved to achieve a good score in this college entrance exam, at least to get into a first-tier university, making his family proud and proud of him.

For Jiang Ping, who had two doctoral degrees and three master's degrees in his previous life, the college entrance exam, while not easy, wasn't too difficult. He estimated that in the subjects he needed to take for the liberal arts, Chinese and English were not a big problem, and the comprehensive test just required some memorization. The subject he was least confident about was math.

Fortunately, Jiang Ping retained some memory of the college entrance exam from his previous life, remembering the last few major questions in math. As long as he could get the points for these questions and try to score some points on the multiple-choice questions, his math score wouldn't be too bad. As long as he performed well in Chinese and English, getting into a first-tier university shouldn't be a problem.

After analyzing his strengths and weaknesses, Jiang Ping obediently took out his politics book and started memorizing. Even as a reborn person, he couldn't take any shortcuts in some matters. For politics, Jiang Ping wouldn't be able to pass without memorizing.

The entire morning passed with Jiang Ping's recitation. To his surprise, his memory after being reborn was quite good. Many contents could be completely memorized after reading them two or three times, which was much better than during his previous college entrance exam. This greatly boosted Jiang Ping's confidence and made him even more eager for the upcoming college entrance exam.

After lunch, Jiang Ping rested for a while and then returned to his room to continue reviewing. At this moment, Jiang Wei suddenly slipped into his room, looking at Jiang Ping with a strange smile.

Jiang Ping asked his sister, puzzled, "What's wrong with you, acting so strangely!"

"Brother, I didn't realize you were so capable!" Jiang Wei, with a smile, approached Jiang Ping and whispered, "You've become so close to her without making a sound, it's really surprising! Your taste is pretty good; that girl is quite pretty!"

Jiang Ping, confused, said, "What are you talking about? I don't understand at all."

Jiang Wei laughed, "Hehe, don't pretend. She's already at our house. Mom and Dad asked me to call you. Hurry up and go out!"

Hearing his sister's words, Jiang Ping remembered that he had agreed to study with Li Qian that afternoon. It was clear that Li Qian had already arrived, which explained Jiang Wei's strange smile.

If this had happened in his previous life, Jiang Ping would have been embarrassed by his sister's teasing. But in this life, Jiang Ping was a high school student with the soul of an adult, so this wasn't a big deal for him.

Jiang Ping knew that the more he explained, the more suspicious it would seem, so he simply stood up and said, "Oh, you mean Li Qian. I'll go see her."

Jiang Ping's calm response left Jiang Wei, who was eager to tease him, somewhat disappointed. She could only wrinkle her nose at her brother's back, expressing her small dissatisfaction.

As soon as Jiang Ping walked out of his room, he heard his mother's enthusiastic voice, "Qianqian, come have some fruit. Lao Jiang, quickly get a drink from the fridge for Qianqian. It's so hot today, Qianqian must be hot!"

Hearing his mother's voice, Jiang Ping couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile. His parents knew Li Qian and knew she was his homeroom teacher's daughter, a well-rounded and excellent student. His parents always held Li Qian as a role model and often reminded him to learn from her. Now that Li Qian had come to their house, it was no wonder Zhu Yun was being so polite, even to the point of being overly polite.

Jiang Ping didn't want Li Qian to feel awkward because of this, so he quickly walked into the living room. When he first saw Li Qian in the living room, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned—today's girl was really beautiful.
