Chapter 31 Tutoring

I thought about it and looked at the message from Ye Cuicui. Ye Cuicui seemed to be unable to understand what I was saying. Even the emoticons she sent were filled with anger and they directly flooded my vision. She said to me in disbelief: [ Hey, Song Feng, are you disgusted with me? Or do you hate me? You don’t have any feelings for me.]

I swallowed and said truthfully, [No. I just think that the two of us should take it slow. Starting from being in love… being in love isn’t such an abrupt thing, right?]

After a long time, Ye Cuicui finally replied to my message. She seemed a little helpless about my attitude, but she still accepted it and said: [Forget it, you-I know how you are. It’s okay. We can take it slow.]

My relationship with Ye Cuicui seemed to have changed subtly, but it also seemed to be just the same as before. Therefore, I didn’t expect Ye Cuicui to come to my class to look for me. It was also at this moment that I found out that Ye Cuicui was quite famous in school. When she stood at the door and looked in, I realized that many male students in our class were subconsciously looking at her. When she called out my name, my deskmate, who had been ignoring me, finally glanced at me and looked at me with a very complicated gaze. He said to me, “When did you get to know Ye Cuicui?”

I casually brushed him off, but I still heard him whisper to the others behind me, “F*ck, that’s a high-level flower, Ye Cuicui. How did Song Feng get close to her?”

“I didn’t know that the two of them had even interacted before. Was it Li Yan who introduced them? I heard that Li Yan is quite familiar with Ye Cuicui.”

“No way. Ye Cuicui is quite arrogant and ignores other boys’ pursuits. She doesn’t seem like the kind of person who would talk to Song Feng…”

I ignored all those comments and followed Ye Cuicui to the corridor.

I looked at Ye Cuicui and was also a little curious about why she came to look for me. “What’s wrong? What happened?”

Ye Cuicui smiled at me. “What’s wrong? Can’t I look for you if there’s nothing going on?”

I scratched my head. “You know that’s not what I meant. It’s just that…”‘ Ye Cuicui waved her hand. Seeing that I was amused, she said honestly, “It’s nothing. It’s just that I remember that your test results seem to be quite good. You’re a famous bookworm in our grade. Can you help me?”

I thought about it. “But I’m not much of a teacher.”

Ye Cuicui shook her head. “It doesn’t matter. You just have to help me pass the next exam.”

I thought about it and saw that Ye Cuicui’s expression was very sincere, so I agreed to it.

However, Ye Cuicui suddenly started to get ahead of herself. “Then can I go to your house?”

This time, I couldn’t help but suspect whether Ye Cuicui really wanted me to help her pass the exam or if she had an ulterior motive. After all, this woman had a record of being scheming. I really couldn’t trust her 100%. I didn’t expect Ye Cuicui to see my expression and stare at me angrily like a pufferfish. “Hey, what’s up with your expression? You don’t believe that I really want to learn?”

After saying that, she added seriously, “Anyway, I have to pass this exam no matter what. If I don’t, my father will block my card.”

Ye Cuicui said, “He rarely came home, but he did recently. He’s about to die of anger when he sees my test papers. For the sake of my beautiful future, please save me.”

I looked at Ye Cuicui suspiciously. “I’m actually afraid that I won’t be able to teach you.”

On the other hand, Ye Cuicui was full of fighting spirit. She seemed to find my words very ridiculous. She snorted coldly and looked at me with disdain. “Listen to what you’re saying. Do you think I’m so stupid? Song Feng, think about it. If you can teach me, you should feel a sense of accomplishment.”

Seeing that I didn’t say anything, Ye Cuicui continued, “Alright, you didn’t even help me with this. You even said that you want to take it slow with me. I don’t think you want to date me at all. You really are disgusted with me and have no interest in me at all!”

Since she had already said so much, what else could I say? Looking at Ye Cuicui’s anxious and sincere expression, I could only compromise with her.

I looked straight at Ye Cuicui. After a pause, I couldn’t help but add, “I can teach you, but you have to learn seriously.”

Ye Cuicui was so happy that she wanted to jump up. She looked very happy. “Okay, okay, okay!”

That afternoon, Ye Cuicui came to look for me.

In her words, such things had to be done as soon as possible.

When I brought Ye Cuicui home, I was still afraid that Zhao Ting would be angry. I didn’t expect Zhao Ting to reveal a very gratified expression when she saw Ye Cuicui. She even gave me a mysterious expression that said, ‘Son, you’ve really grown up.’ It made me feel awkward and speechless.

On the other hand, Ye Cuicui seemed to have adapted quite well. She greeted mom obediently and said, “Hello, Auntie.” She coaxed mom until she couldn’t stop smiling, making me look like an outsider who didn’t fit in.

I couldn’t help but pull Ye Cuicui and bring her upstairs to my room.

I Unlike Ye Cuicui, who was a procrastinator, was indeed a very efficient person. Since I said that I wanted to tutor Ye Cuicui, I would definitely not be perfunctory or sloppy, or even dismiss her casually.

Seeing that the thick stack of books in front of her was taller than her face, Ye Cuicui seemed to regret it a little. She looked at me. She probably didn’t expect me to pick out so many books for her in such a short time. Her expression became a little ambiguous. “Isn’t this a little…?”

I pulled out the chair in front of Ye Cuicui and sat down. I didn’t answer her question. Instead, I opened Ye Cuicui’s textbook. Then, I was speechless. I was dumbfounded. “Your book is really as clean as new.”

I took out a rollerball pen, put on my black-framed glasses, and began to seriously highlight important points for Ye Cuicui. After a while, when I was basically done, I finally handed the textbook to Ye Cuicui. “Memorize all the places I marked.”

Ye Cuicui took it, but her eyes were still fixed on me. She had no intention of studying at all. “Okay.”

I was confused. “I told you to look at the book. What are you looking at?”

Ye Cuicui replied without thinking, “You.”

The atmosphere became a little awkward. As I used my knuckles to put on the cap of my pen, I asked Ye Cuicui, “Me?”
