Franklin ate slowly, and unlike Lauren who only ate meat, he ate a good balance of meat and vegetables. He picked up a piece of vegetables and placed it into Lauren’s bowl.

“When it comes to learning, as long as you work hard, you can see the results. If you feel that you haven’t improved, then you definitely haven’t worked hard.”

Franklin’s words had the same effect as that of a class teacher. To students like him, it was nothing more than a bowl of useless chicken soup for the soul.

“But learning is really difficult!”

Those physics formulas and German words.

Eh…

He felt a headache coming on as he thought about it. He quickly ate two more pieces of meat to calm himself down.

Looking at the beef that was quickly being gobbled up, Lauren’s heart ached as she thought to herself, ‘Is learning really that hard?’

She used a month’s time to learn a foreign language by herself.

At that moment, Quinn burst into laughter as if he had just remembered something.

“Do you still remember when Bryce was in primary school, he didn’t memorize the German words properly and was given detention by the teacher. The teacher informed our parents to pick him up. When I went with Franklin, Bryce was crying like a baby. He was crying and snot was coming out of his nose, but yet he was still reciting words.”

Speaking of the past, there was a faint smile on Franklin’s serious face at this moment.

Mr. Hayes recalled and said, “About that incident, I still remember when you guys brought Master Bryce back that night. I thought you guys did something to him that make him cry so miserably.”

“Yeah, I also remembered that Master Bryce ran away from home because he had to memorize words. We even had to drive around to look for him in the middle of the night.”

Bryce was not angry when he was remembered of these embarrassing past. He followed everyone and laughed heartily.

“I won’t be like this now because the teachers no longer give detention.”

Everyone seemed to have a good time talking about the past.

However, in the midst of their laughter, Lauren felt like an outsider.

She did not participate in their past, and they seemed to have automatically excluded her.

Lauren lowered her head and ate the vegetables that Franklin had placed in her bowl. The vegetables were still as awful as before.

After the meal, it was already seven o’clock. Franklin had made an appointment with the director at 8:30. During this period of time, Lauren had to return to her room to do some preparatory work. She had not finished writing the soul-returning talisman.

Therefore, after everyone had finished eating the hotpot and sat around the living room to eat the fruit, Lauren went back to her own room to write the soul-returning talisman.
