Thereafter, heaven pitied her and gave her another chance to start over.

This possibility was not unlikely.

“Teacher Xiao Qiao, don’t talk about this anymore. Let’s eat. Here’s the porridge that I brought back for you.” The female counselor was a little embarra.s.sed to inquiry about Qiao Nan’s family situation. She was also afraid that she would make things difficult for Qiao Nan.

“Thank you.” Qiao Nan was not pleased by material gains or saddened by personal woes. This kind of resilience and benevolence, as well as sedateness and maturity in personality, was different from those who were of her age. It was extremely captivating.

Seeing that Qiao Nan was indifferent to favor and humiliation, the female counselor sighed. Qiu Chenxi was seemingly mature, but she was, in fact, very childish. Her thinking was extremely immature. She yearned for instant success and even forwent her future and the long-term benefits.

On the contrary, Comrade Xiao Qiao was young. She was inexperienced about world affairs but was able to handle matters in a graceful and appropriate manner. She was adept at managing any situations with ease.

It was no wonder the political commissar had the intention to poach a character such as Comrade Xiao Qiao. She was indeed capable.

If Comrade Xiao Qiao was a man in the ancient times, she would be very suited to be an advisor or a strategist, and would definitely become an outstanding hero.

The female counselor rarely sensed this from women. As a woman, the female counselor felt very proud to know the existence of a woman like Qiao Nan.

Did you see that? Women did not only have a lot of hair and little knowledge. When they were capable, they could be very formidable too.

At the very least, during this period, didn’t most of the grown-up men address ‘Teacher Xiao Qiao’ respectfully when they met her?

Qiao Nan was totally unaware that the female counselor, who was older than her and whom she could even address as auntie, held her in such utmost respect.

Qiao Nan did not forget her basics and original intentions. She went according to the pace of her original plan step-by-step in an orderly manner. She tried her best to adjust her mindset to avoid distractions from external parties and issues.

Knock, knock, knock.

Someone knocked on the door.

Before Qiao Nan could stand up, the female counselor squeezed Qiao Nan’s shoulders gently. “Comrade Xiao Qiao, continue to eat. I’ll open the door. Most likely, someone is looking for me.”

The female counselor opened the door and saw Qiu Chenxi. “Why did you come?”

“I’m here to look for Comrade Xiao Qiao.” Hence, the female counselor could stay aside and not stand in her away.

“What’s the matter?” The female counselor slammed her hand on the doorframe with a bang. She stood straight at the door and expressed that if Qiu Chenxi did not make herself clear, she would not let her in. “It’s broad daylight now. I’ve also lit a mosquito repellent coil in this room, so there’s definitely no mosquitoes. Did you come here to look for Comrade Xiao Qiao? It can’t be that you’re here to help her kill the mosquitoes?”
