Free Web NovelChapter 567: Chapter 567: Sugar-Roasted Chestnuts
After Jiang Ran left the classroom, she went straight to her office.
That’s right!
Having successfully transitioned from student to teacher, Jiang Ran now had her own office.
Of course, it wasn’t a private office; rather, she shared it with other teachers.
But even so, Jiang Ran was very satisfied.
When Jiang Ran arrived at the office, she saw that all the other seats were already occupied.
Jiang Ran nodded and smiled at the others, then walked to her seat.
As soon as she sat down, someone looked over at her.
It wasn’t just one person who looked over; everyone was looking at her.
Being stared at by so many people, Jiang Ran didn’t feel embarrassed; she just smiled back at them.
"Is there something you need?"
Perhaps because Jiang Ran spoke first, after exchanging glances, someone finally asked.
"I remember, you seemed to be a student before."
The person speaking was a middle-aged male teacher.
The reason he said this was because Jiang Ran had attended his class before.
Jiang Ran nodded, "Yes, I used to be a student, but now I’m not."
As for why she wasn’t anymore, Jiang Ran didn’t explain. Although they were colleagues, there was no need to tell them everything about herself.
Fortunately, these people were seasoned teachers with many years of experience, not fresh graduates who would dig for more information.
Even if they were curious, they understood what to ask and what not to ask.
Seeing that Jiang Ran didn’t continue, the others didn’t press further and went back to their own work.
Jiang Ran was quite satisfied with this.
She wasn’t really looking to become good friends with her colleagues.
Since she only came to the office twice a week, it was enough to maintain their current relationship.
After organizing her things, Jiang Ran quickly left the school.
At this time, it was only three or four o’clock, and the sun was still hanging in the sky, its light radiant.
On her way home, Jiang Ran happened to encounter a vendor pushing a cart selling sugar-roasted chestnuts, so she stopped to buy two pounds of them.
Sugar-roasted chestnuts had always been something Jiang Ran particularly enjoyed eating.
They’re indeed delicious, but they can be a bit troublesome to eat.
The main issue is that peeling them is a bit of a hassle.
But for someone who really loves them, it wouldn’t seem troublesome; instead, it would feel quite enjoyable.
Jiang Ran was such a person.
She would slowly peel the shell off each chestnut, then savor the fragrant, sweet, and soft chestnut in her mouth, relishing the softness and aroma— a supreme satisfaction.
At times like these, it’s best to have a pot of tea to go with it, eating chestnuts and sipping tea, maybe basking in the sun and reading a book. That’s the epitome of enjoyment in life.
Thinking this, Jiang Ran pedaled her bike home a bit faster.
Unfortunately, her good mood lasted only until she reached her doorstep.
Because just as she got home, she saw a young man sitting at her door.
This person was none other than Jiang Zhan, whom she had just seen yesterday.
Upon seeing Jiang Zhan, Jiang Ran couldn’t help but frown. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Why is he here again?
Wait!
Isn’t today supposed to be a school day? Why wasn’t he in school, and why had he come here?
Thinking of this, Jiang Ran’s expression grew even more displeased.
