Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 166

Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Back to the Countryside Again

Jiang Cheng looked at the list written by Old Ma Bone.

Most of the herbs were easy to find, except for one - tiger bone.

Jiang Cheng’s first reaction was animal protection, but then she remembered the era she was in, where animal protection laws hadn’t been implemented yet.

So, getting tiger bone wasn’t really too difficult.

"Is there anything else to prepare?"

Old Ma Bone shook his head, indicating there wasn’t.

Jiang Cheng left with the list.

That night, she handed Shen Que the list to copy it down, two people finding it together would be faster.

Shen Que put away the list, and while no one else was around, held Jiang Cheng’s fingertip.

"I will cooperate well with the treatment."

Because he wanted to heal.

He could accept his disabled leg himself, but he didn’t want Jiang Cheng to be ridiculed because of his leg.

Jiang Cheng turned around in response to Shen Que’s tug.

She stood, while Shen Que sat.

Jiang Cheng, looking down from above, lifted Shen Que’s chin with one finger.

She gradually leaned closer, her lowered face, rosy lips.

Shen Que’s mind went blank, the corners of his eyes reddening.

As Jiang Cheng got a bit closer, Shen Que’s Adam’s apple moved, breathing became difficult.

"I like you no matter what."

Her red lips grazed Shen Que’s earlobe, her intoxicating voice making him shudder.

"Silly—remember to breathe."

The warm touch landed on Shen Que’s forehead, fleeting.

Jiang Cheng’s eyes and brows were alluring, laughing as she retreated.

Shen Que suddenly tightened his grip on her fingertip, wanting to draw Jiang Cheng back.

Jiang Cheng anticipated the move, mischievously pointing outside: Be careful, someone might be there.

Shen Que’s restless heart was completely stirred by Jiang Cheng.

He helplessly and lovingly watched Jiang Cheng’s playful smile, ultimately only leaving him with a view of her back.

Shen Que took a deep breath, calming himself several times.

"Work, work properly! Once arranged, treat the leg!"

Meanwhile, Jiang Cheng, who ran off after teasing, bore no mental burden.

Actually, when considering who would take care of Shen Que today, Jiang Cheng thought about getting a certificate with Shen Que.

Unfortunately, Shen Que didn’t want to.

Oh... who could she blame?

Jiang Cheng hummed in high spirits, taking out books to start studying.

In the following days, Shen Que was very busy, Jiang Cheng always felt he was a bit anxious.

During these days, on Principal Wang’s recommendation, Jiang Cheng went to the city’s high school for a special exam.

After passing, Jiang Cheng directly received a high school diploma.

Simultaneously, the night school also issued Jiang Cheng a night school diploma.

Principal Wang felt a bit reluctant for a moment, always feeling that issuing the diploma severed the connection between night school and Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng saw this and laughingly said, "Why don’t you just arrange a position for me?"

Jiang Cheng was joking, but Principal Wang took it somewhat seriously.

However, Jiang Cheng ultimately rejected it.

"Forget the position, occupying it without doing anything, sooner or later someone will have an opinion."

"You better just treat me to a few meals more often, I’ll be there whenever it matters."

Principal Wang knew this was better, avoiding gossip.

Jiang Cheng was sent out by Principal Wang.

"You go back, I’ll still come to borrow the phone when needed."

"Oh right! How did I forget about that!"

Principal Wang realized it, no longer feeling sad.

Even, with an expression of disdain, pursed Jiang Cheng: "Don’t come too often without reason!"

"That’s impossible! If I don’t come, how can you improve? If I don’t come, the teachers miss me, classmates remember me."

"Excellent people always have to bear a bit more... For everyone’s sake, I will come often."

With her words finished, Jiang Cheng pedaled away, not giving Principal Wang a chance to speak.

Jiang Cheng, having left night school, returned to the communal courtyard.

In the evening, Sun Aiguo and Li Chunxiang came over to study, Sun Aiguo delivered a message.

Director Lu had something for her, asking her to visit the food factory when convenient tomorrow.
