Chapter 926: Chapter 926: Rejecting His Kindness
She took out a handmade embroidered shawl and asked her with a smile, “Is this a gift for Mom?”
“Yes.” Xia Nuo stepped forward to take out the gifts she bought for everyone.
Mr. Xia’s was a postcard from a local tourist spot, Aunt Zhao's was a handmade embroidered wallet, but there
was no gift for Leng Yan.
Mrs. Xia asked her in confusion, “What about Leng Yan's?”
She had already planned it, packing a few bags of local specialties for him. She bought a lot of local specialties
to bring back, everyone had a gift, but his was just a specialty.
Leng Yan didn’t need to think much to know she hadn't really bought anything for him, the specialty was just to
brush him off.
Though he felt hurt inside, he didn’t show any expression on his face. Taking the specialty, he said goodbye to
Mr. Xia and Mrs. Xia, and then left.
Mrs. Xia seemed to be able to tell there was a rift between the two kids.
“Xiao Nuo, are you having a fight with Leng Yan?”
“No, not at all.” Xia Nuo looked innocent.
“Good, if not. He's still young, you should give in to him more.”
“Mm, | know.” She replied like this, but didn’t really care in her heart.

He may be young, but he’s not naive. Besides, she’ll definitely give way to him in the future, and wouldn't dare
to get close to him again.
Leng Yan still cto her house every day for meals as if nothing had happened. Xia Nuo no longer interacted
with him as casually as before. She set up an invisible barrier between them, which others couldn't see, and he
couldn't approach.
In the past, Xia Nuo always looked forward to vacations, for not having to go to school, but now she most hoped
for school to start immediately. Once school began, they'd be in different schools and wouldn't see each other
often.
Distance and tcan fade everything. Being away from Leng Yan, he should finally give up on her.
Finally, the school term began.
Xia Nuo hadn't had tto rejoice before being informed of a week of military training first.
The scorching sun overhead made military training feel like torture in such weather!
On the first day of military training, Xia Nuo got tanned, and she complained about feeling uncomfortable when
she got home. Mr. Xia said she lacked exercise and deserved to feel bad.
Mrs. Xia said she was spoiled and deserved to suffer.
Xia Nuo was speechless, wondering if parents like these really existed.
Enduring till the third day with clenched teeth, Xia Nuo couldn’t hold on any longer, and fainted while standing in
military posture. She fell straight to the ground, her face getting scraped on the cement.
This time, Mr. Xia and Mrs. Xia finally felt sorry for her.
They took a day off for her to recuperate at home, and the whole family treated her as a key care object.
When Leng Yan cto eat and learned about her situation, he looked at her scraped face and asked with
concern, “Does it hurt?”
“It doesn’t hurt, just a minor wound.” Not wanting him to continue worrying about her, she acted indifferent.
“Can you skip the rest of the military training?” he asked again.
“| could, but | can't give up military
training just because of a small
difficulty, This is-a¢enge to temper
my, bh Rok | must persevere to the
end.” With a motivated look, Xia Nuo
spoke contrary to her actual feelings.
Leng Yan frowned, seemingly disagreeing with her continuing military training. But since she insisted, he couldn't
stop her.

Leng Yan sat for a while without leaving, and Xia Nuo couldn't sit still after accompanying him for a bit.
