Chapter 81: Chapter 81: The Problem You Can’t Solve—I’ll Teach You with Two Methods!

Wang Xiu’e’s sharp gaze swept over them.

“Did you all hear that?”

“Wanyi is going to take the university entrance exam and contribute to the country!”

“And you? Besides gossiping, what else can you do?”

Sister-in-law Qian and Li’s faces turned red and then white.

Gu Yanshen didn’t look at anyone.

He took off his military coat and wrapped it around Lin Wan Yi’s thin body, then bent down and picked her up horizontally.

His movements were cautious, as if handling a rare treasure.

“Brother!”

Gu Lan quickly opened the car door.

Gu Yanshen sat steadily in the back seat with Lin Wan Yi in his arms, without speaking a word.

The jeep sped away, leaving the crowd with a cold, hard silhouette.

Back in the hospital room, Gu Yanshen gently placed her on the bed and covered her with the blanket.

“Are you tired?”

Lin Wan Yi shook her head and held his hand.

“I’m fine.”

At that moment, there was a sound of shuffling footsteps at the door of the hospital room.

Sister-in-law Qian and Li were pushed in by their husbands, holding baskets, their faces full of embarrassment at the entrance.

“Well… Mr. Gu, Mr. Lin…”

Sister-in-law Qian’s husband, a dark-skinned man, put on a smile.

“My wife has a loose mouth, please be generous, we’re here to apologize.”

Gu Lan was coming out with a basin of water and blocked the way.

“Apologize?”

She glanced at the eggs and a few yards of fabric in the basket.

“Just with this stuff?”

Sister-in-law Qian’s face turned the color of pig liver.

“Comrade Gu Lan, we…”

“My sister-in-law is pregnant with twins, they’re treasures of our military district.”

Gu Lan’s voice was not loud, but every word hit hard.

“You scared her so much that something nearly happened.”

“Is this all you brought to continue cursing us, or do you think my brother and our Gu family are only worth this much?”

“No… it’s not like that!” Li was almost in tears.

“Then what is it?”

Gu Lan stepped forward, lowering her voice.

“I’m telling you, this isn’t over.”

“What you did to my sister-in-law today, I’ll remember every single thing.”

“Take your stuff and leave.”

“My sister-in-law and her precious babies can’t be touched by your bad luck.”

Sister-in-law Qian and Li shuddered all over, took their things, and fled in a hurry under the pointing and whispering of onlookers.

As soon as they left, Wang Xiu’e and Sister Zhou entered the hospital room.

“Wanyi, well done!”

Wang Xiu’e immediately took Lin Wan Yi’s hand and was full of praise.

“That was more effective than slapping them in the face!”

Sister Zhou added with a smile.

“Now the whole compound is buzzing, saying that Mr. Gu’s little bride is not only pretty, but also an ambitious intellectual.”

Gu Lan proudly raised her chin.

“Of course! My sister-in-law is amazing!”

Wang Xiu’e patted her with a smile.

“It’s great that you want to take the college entrance exam, but study materials are hard to find.”

She said as she took a cloth package from the guard behind her.

“I had Old Zhang contact his comrade in Beijing, this is what his child just finished using, from first-year to third-year high school, a complete set of textbooks and workbooks, almost brand new!”

The cloth package was opened, revealing stacks of neatly arranged books.

In this era, it was a treasure more precious than gold.

Gu Lan’s eyes went wide.

“Aunt Wang! This is really timely help!”

Lin Wan Yi also sat up straight, genuine gratitude in her eyes.

“Thank you, Aunt Wang.”

Wang Xiu’e waved her hand.

“What thanks! I even found you two a teacher.”

“She’s a sister from my former art troupe, married to a professor, and she herself is a retired special-grade teacher, feel free to go to her if you have any difficult problems!”

This even moved Lin Wan Yi a little.

It’s not just providing materials, it’s paving the way to university.

Gu Yanshen quietly stayed by her side, using his uninjured hand to peel an apple for Lin Wan Yi.

He cut the peeled apple into small pieces, stuck a toothpick in them, and handed them to her mouth.

Early the next morning.

Lin Wan Yi was still asleep, woken by a clattering noise.

As she opened her eyes, she saw Gu Yanshen directing two soldiers to move things out of a storage room next to his office.

That room was the best in the entire office building, facing south with sunlight, warm in winter, and cool in summer.

“Brother, what are you doing?”

Gu Lan also ran over, hearing the commotion.

Gu Yanshen didn’t even turn his head.

“Clearing it out to make a study for you.”

A day later.

When Lin Wan Yi and Gu Lan walked into the “new study,” they were both stunned.

The room had been freshly painted, and clean wooden boards were laid on the floor.

By the window were two brand new pine desks, the corners polished smooth and round.

Next to them stood a half-person tall bookshelf, already neatly filled with the textbooks Wang Xiu’e had sent.

The air still had a faint pine scent.

“Brother… did you do this?” Gu Lan stroked the smooth desk, in disbelief.

Gu Yanshen nodded with an expressionless face.

“The dimensions were measured according to your heights, try if it fits.”

Lin Wan Yi sat down at the desk, the height was perfect.

Sunlight poured through the window, warming the pages of the book.

A few days later, Lin Wan Yi’s health improved, and she and Gu Lan officially began reviewing.

As soon as they wrote a problem on the blackboard, someone knocked on the study door.

“Come in.”

The door opened, and a few young women in military uniforms walked in.

Leading them was Zhang Qianqian, the daughter of Dean Wu from the military district hospital.

She always prided herself as a talented woman in the military compound.

“I heard Comrade Lin is studying here, we came to take a look, and maybe pick up some good luck.”

Zhang Qianqian spoke politely, but her eyes scrutinized Lin Wan Yi with a hint of disdain.

A girl behind her spoke up.

“Sister Qianqian, isn’t this the hard analytic geometry problem you mentioned to us yesterday?”

Everyone’s eyes focused on the blackboard.

Zhang Qianqian glanced at it and chuckled, covering her mouth.

“Oh dear, Comrade Lin just started reviewing and is already taking on such a tough problem?”

Her tone carried obvious mockery.

“We puzzled over this problem for a whole day and couldn’t figure it out. I’m afraid a ’capitalist’s daughter’ like Lin, can’t even understand the question. Don’t strain yourself, just pretend to study.”

Gu Lan was so angry she was about to stand up.

Lin Wan Yi, however, held her down.

She looked up at the problem on the blackboard.

Then she stood up, picked up a piece of chalk, and said nothing.

Zhang Qianqian and her companions exchanged a glance, ready to watch the show, arms crossed.

The chalk made a “scratching” sound on the blackboard.

Lin Wan Yi’s hand was steady, with lines of formulas and calculations clearly appearing on the blackboard.

Her thought process was very clear, without the slightest hesitation.

Five minutes later, the answer emerged on the board.

The smile on Zhang Qianqian’s face froze.

This… this was a standard analytic method, although complex, it was completely accurate.

However, Lin Wan Yi didn’t stop.

She picked up the eraser and erased the most tedious steps in the middle.

Then, under the astonished gaze of everyone, she drew some arrows and introduced a few coordinates with chalk.

“What’s she doing?”

“I don’t know, I’ve never seen this method before…”

Zhang Qianqian stared at the blackboard, vaguely sensing it was an advanced method she had never encountered.

Three lines.

Just three lines of calculation.

The same answer reappeared on the blackboard.

The whole process was smooth and fluid, so fast it made people’s heads spin.

Lin Wan Yi put down the chalk.

The chalk made a crisp “clack” in the chalk tray.

She turned around, without looking at anyone, and took a sip from her water cup on the table.

The whole study was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Zhang Qianqian and the girls behind her stood motionless, as if frozen.

Their faces turned from white to red, finally becoming a burning purple.
