Jiang Cheng successfully snagged a meal for tomorrow, satisfied as he left the machinery factory.
At the factory gate, Principal Wang and Manager Guo took a slightly longer route just to ensure Jiang Cheng's safe return to the courtyard houses.
On the way, Manager Guo curiously asked, "Mr. Jiang, how long have you been studying foreign languages?"
"Hmm—it's been a while—I should count—"
After hearing this, Manager Guo nodded knowingly and said, "I can tell from your level that you've been learning for quite some time."
"A month and eight days."
Both spoke simultaneously, causing Manager Guo to instinctively look at Jiang Cheng instead of the road.
"Watch out!"
Jiang Cheng pulled on Manager Guo's bicycle handlebar, causing him to ground one foot. Though the bike tilted slightly, fortunately, they didn't fall.
In front was a pitch-black lamppost with a bit of white paint on it; they narrowly avoided hitting it.
"Are you okay?"
Principal Wang rushed over with a flashlight.
