Chapter 483: I Only Smile at People I Like
“All right.” Yu Hanxia nodded and noticed that Tan Mo had raised her face to look at her without trying to hide the admiration in her eyes.
Yu Hanxia was curious. What was this little lady admiring about her?
Everyone knew that Tan Mo was a genius.
Not just in history and Chinese literature, but rumor had it that she was also a genius in aeros.p.a.ce engineering and mathematics.
What could a little lady like that admire about her?
However, no matter what it was, it had caused Yu Hanxia’s gaze at Tan Mo to gradually become gentler.
“Is it enough to just take photos from the third and fourth floors?” Yu Hanxia raised her head to observe the dormitory building again.
“That will be enough,” Tan Mo said. “I have already taken photos from the balcony of my dormitory from several angles, to confirm the position where the person who posted the thread had taken the photos from. I’ve compared my photos to the photos posted on the forum.
“So we only need photos taken from our dormitory. If taken from the first floor, the photos would have the same angle as mine and are obviously different from the photos in the thread, so that can be directly eliminated. The third and fourth floor photos could be zoomed in, and there wouldn’t be much noise.
“It would be too high if we went any further up. After zooming in, looking at the quality of the photos on the forum, the phone is unable to maintain its high-clarity function. I would guess that the limit is probably not even up to the fourth floor. But, to be safe, I still included the fourth floor.”
Yu Hanxia nodded to show that she understood. “Then let’s go.”
Tan Mo brought Yu Hanxia into the dormitory and registered her with the dormitory officer.
Yu Hanxia asked the dormitory officer, “Can you come with us to dormitory units 305 and 405?”
The dormitory officer was shocked. “I can, but I have to ask, what for?”
“I want to investigate who took the photos and put up the thread and I want to borrow the balconies of dormitory units 305 and 405 to take a few photos and make a comparison,” Tan Mo explained.
Yu Hanxia said, “If we just knock on their doors with no notice and request to go in, the students of dormitory units 305 and 405 may be worried and may not be willing to believe us. You are the dormitory officer. With you accompanying us, they would be more at ease.”
It had to be pointed out that Yu Hanxia was meticulous.
Tan Mo had not considered this and had only thought of knocking on the doors of dormitory units 305 and 405.
With Yu Hanxia around and her imposing manner, the students of the two dormitory units would probably let them in.
“All right,” the dormitory officer agreed.
President Mu had said that everyone should cooperate with Tan Mo’s investigation, and he had relayed this information to the entire school.
So the dormitory officer knew about it.
And President Mu had told this to Tan Mo at the entrance to the dormitory.
So the dormitory officer had already heard President Mu say it himself.
The officer walked out of her office, locked the door, and accompanied Tan Mo and Yu Hanxia to the third floor.
After she knocked on the door, the dormitory officer explained what they were there for.
As expected, with the dormitory officer around, everyone was quite cooperative.
Moreover, the photos had not been taken by them.
They were not guilty and they had not done anything bad, so it was a good thing to help Tan Mo out.
Tan Mo quickly finished the task of taking her photos, thanked her schoolmates living in dormitory rooms 305 and 405, and also thanked the dormitory officer.
When they were descending the stairs, Tan Mo asked Yu Hanxia, “Sister Yu, what do you eat usually to grow so tall?”
Yu Hanxia: “…”
“Nothing special, it is probably only because both my parents are tall.” Yu Hanxia did not have any special diet.
“But my parents are also tall, and I have three older brothers and they are all very tall.” Tan Mo gestured at the heights of her three brothers.
“In my family, I am the only one who is short.” Tan Mo was depressed about that. “Although I am in the third year of university, I am only 18 years old. I feel that I still have a chance to grow a little taller.”
Yu Hanxia could not bear to dash Tan Mo’s hopes.
You did not grow much between the ages of 12 and 16, when p.u.b.erty was the fastest, so one shouldn’t hope to grow much taller when you are 18.
Of course she could still grow when she was 16 and 17, but the speed would not be as fast as before.
Thus, a lot of girls will be taller than many boys in their cla.s.ses during their primary five and six years, and even secondary one and secondary two years.
However, when they are secondary three, the speed of growth for boys will suddenly accelerate and they grow tall quickly.
While the speed of growth for girls would gradually slow down when they are in high school.
When they are 17 and 18, they might still grow taller, but not by much.
Tan Mo was 18 and still wanted to grow taller.
Probably…maybe…should be…there was not much hope.
Yu Hanxia didn’t want to be the one to destroy Tan Mo’s hopes, so she thought a while and then said, “Exercise probably is helpful.”
“I learned martial arts when I was young and learned Judo later. I also eat balanced meals and eat a lot of vegetables every day. I eat beef, chicken, prawns, and other high-protein low-fat meat options, complex grains, and I use different cooking methods to make these complex grains. Plus all kinds of nuts,” Yu Hanxia thought for a while and felt that probably these also helped.
“Of course, I eat junk food sometimes too. About once or twice a month, I will eat what I want to eat, such as pizza or hot pot. But I only eat one kind at a time and don’t mix them together. Even if I eat them, I will control my intake and do not binge.”
“…” Tan Mo immediately decided this was not for her.
It was too terrible to not be able to eat good food.
As for exercise…she also did not like to exercise.
“Then…then, sister Yu, do you think my height is all right?” Tan Mo looked at Yu Hanxia with wide eyes.
Yu Hanxia laughed, and her smile made her cold face look as if 100 flowers had bloomed suddenly.
It was as if all sorts of brightly colored flowers had suddenly bloomed on a mountain covered with snow.
Tan Mo was stunned.
Yu Hanxia raised her hand and rubbed Tan Mo’s head.
Tan Mo’s hair was soft and silky and was good to touch.
“Your height is very suitable,” Yu Hanxia said. “It is just nice.”
“Really?” Tan Mo asked in surprise.
Yu Hanxia seemed worried that Tan Mo did not believe her, and she nodded violently and even said with certainty, “Really!”
“Then…then I will not eat that diet you were talking about,” Tan Mo said.
Yu Hanxia smiled. HMMM! “That’s all right not to eat them.”
The little snow fairy looked at Yu Hanxia’s smile and told her, “Sister Yu, you look really good when you smile.”
Although Yu Hanxia’s smile had gotten slightly smaller, she was still smiling.
Even the corner of her eyes held a warm smile. “I only smile at people I like.”
Tan Mo’s little face immediately brightened, and she said, “Sister Yu, I also like you.”
As Tan Mo said that, she happened to be exiting the dormitory building with Yu Hanxia.
