The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me! - Chapter 527

Chapter 527: Chapter 526: From Young to Old (2)
 

Women are weak during this period, but there’s never a time when they cannot move.

She could accept Bo Yan’s care in private, but this was work. It was her job, and she did not want to rely on anyone or expect any privileges.

Bo Yan understood, so he made an offer, which she refused, and he didn’t insist further.

The two continued with their tasks.

Wei Jingjing and Song Fengzhi, truly treated like wealthy philanthropists, were received by the leaders. Little Tang and Bo Yan’s driver also directed the delivery of supplies. In addition to books, there were also clothes, textbooks, stationery, sports equipment, and such. Little Tang and Bo Yan’s driver went to sort those out, while at the library here, they were actually doing the hard labor of moving things around.

Xia Siyu didn’t really mind; she had even moved bricks back in Italy before. Although she might be a bit tired on the second day, she could take a rest if needed.

Charity is about goodwill, not compulsion, and certainly not showboating. Throughout, Bo Yan kept an eye on her, and seeing her continue to work after taking breaks, he didn’t discourage her, merely handing her a bottle of water when she was thirsty.

What Bo Yan gave her was not a bottled mineral water, but a thermos. She was a bit puzzled when she took it, “What’s this?”

“Song Fengzhi brewed it for me, it’s sweet, and I don’t like it, so I’m giving it to you,” he said.

When Xia Siyu unscrewed the lid, inside were red dates and goji berries, and from the color of the liquid, it seemed that brown sugar was also added, making it pleasantly sweet.

It would be a wonder if Bo Yan drank that. Xia Siyu took a sip and clicked her tongue, “Next time, ask Song Fengzhi to boil a bit more donkey-hide gelatin when making it for you.”

Bo Yan even nodded with a laugh, “Alright.”

Though Xia Siyu looked disdainful, she took one sip after another. The water was no longer as hot as at the beginning; it was warmly comforting and just sweet enough. After finishing the water, Xia Siyu felt reenergized, as if she had been recharged, and continued with the unfinished work alongside him.

Working together, they quickly arranged the books according to the requirements. After that, the librarian registered them and placed them on the shelves. Despite their quarrels, Bo Yan and Xia Siyu had a good understanding of each other when it came to work. They finished sorting out a whole truckload of books in just over an hour.

It was fortunate that most of the books they purchased were world-renowned classics, dictionaries, “Why” books, and history books, with a majority of them on popular science, not too detailed, making it easier to log them in and place them directly onto the empty shelves. The finer details of organization would have to be managed by the school itself, and there was not much they could do to help.

Once they were done, the bell rang for the end of class, and it was time for lunch.

Originally, Xia Siyu and Bo Yan intended to leave after donating the supplies. However, the school leaders were too enthusiastic, especially as they considered Wei Jingjing and Song Fengzhi benefactors. They insisted on having them stay for a meal and even planned to call them often in the future to report on the students’ progression. They even called out several student representatives, intending to have them perform their choir for them, recite poems, and even erect a plaque for them.

Unable to decline, they sent a message to Xia Siyu and Bo Yan, who, after pondering for a bit, decided that staying for a meal was acceptable, as they were also interested in witnessing the school’s teaching conditions. However, they firmly insisted that their attendance not be publicized.

So, the school leaders, accompanied by a large group of teachers and students, surrounded Wei Jingjing and Song Fengzhi like stars around the moon and headed to the canteen together.
