The girls stopped talking.
They looked at the car simultaneously.
The car looked low-key but anyone who knew about cars would know that this was an extremely expensive car.
Normal people were not able to drive it.
The door on the driverâs seat opened. A man in a suit and a tie walked around the car and opened the backseat door. He respectfully invited the person inside out.
A foot wearing a leather shoe stepped on the ground. A long and straight leg appeared.
âAhh...â
âHe is so handsome!â
The moment the man appeared, girls started covering their mouths and screaming.
Shu Xue looked at the man in shock.
The girl beside Shu Xue grabbed her excitedly. âIsnât this... the man we saw at Starlight Show that time?â
âOh my god, what is he doing at our school?â
The man walked to stand in front of Shu Xue. He raised his hand elegantly. âBeautiful Miss Shu Xue, may I have dinner with you?â
Everyone gasped.
All the girls looked at Shu Xue with envy.
Shu Xueâs face turned red. She was delighted.
Ming Shu carried her pink bag and stood behind the crowd. She looked on as Shu Xue shyly and proudly gave her hand to the man.
She walked around the crowd toward her car. She climbed in.
Xuan Ge was in the car. Ming Shu was surprised. âWhy are you here?â
Xuan Ge sat in the driverâs seat. He started the engine. âThe chauffeur took a break.â
âReally?â
Ming Shu looked at him curiously. She gave a naughty smile. âWhy did you volunteer to send me home? Do you like me?â
Xuan Geâs hand trembled. His hand never trembled normally, even when he was holding a gun.
He took a deep breath. His tone was indifferent. âYouâre thinking too much.â
Ming Shu pursed her lips and smiled gently. âI hope that Iâm thinking too much.â
Xuan Ge didnât reply to her. He stepped on the accelerator.
The car drive past the low-key expensive car.
As compared to that car, Ming Shuâs car was more striking.
It zoomed past.
Peopleâs attention got caught by it.
âThat looked like Shu Xueâs car, right? I saw Shu Xue sitting in it before...â
âI donât think so. It belonged to Shu Xueâs cousin. I saw her getting out this morning.â
âHuh? The lunatic...â
âSpeaking of which, Shu Xue has been taking the same car to school every day. Do you think that the rumor is true?â
âWhat rumor?â
âThat Shu Xueâs house is actually her cousinâs but she keeps saying that itâs hers...â
The people discussed softly.
Shu Xue bit her lip. She looked at the direction the car disappeared in. Why did she leave just like this?
When she was envied by everyone, Ming Shu disregarded her.
âMiss Shu Xue, letâs go.â
The man didnât hear the discussion and led Shu Xue to the car.
Shu Xue felt slightly better.
The gazes around her were filled with jealousy and envy again. Shu Xue regained some of her pride.
Shu Ran!
You will regret it one day!
...
Xuan Ge drove steadily.
Normally, the driver would play some music. There was no music today so it seemed exceptionally quiet.
Xuan Ge glanced at the person beside him.
She was hugging her schoolbag and munching on potato chips.
She glanced outside the window casually.
Xuan Ge looked at the fair skin on her neck. Her black hair emphasized her fair skin. It seemed to be glowing.
Xuan Ge retracted his gaze and asked, âWhy did you send me food?â
âWhen did I send you food? Am I crazy? I donât even have enough for myself.â
Ming Shu was puzzled. Then, she looked as though she was enlightened. âNo wonder I have so little food every day. You stole it from me.â
She didnât look like she was faking it.
It seemed that she really didnât know...
âIt must be Uncle Yi!â Ming Shu pouted. âI donât have enough food at night yet he still stole some for you.â
Xuan Ge: â...â
At the villa, Yi Qiao sneezed. Who was talking about him?
Xuan Ge was curious too. Ming Shu seemed so sincere he couldnât suspect her.
Maybe he was thinking too much...
When they returned to the villa, Ming Shu grabbed Yi Qiao. âUncle Yi, did you take some of my midnight snacks away?â
Yi Qiao was stunned for a moment. Why would he dare to take her food?
He remembered the message he received and replied, âYoung Miss, you canât eat too much at night. Youâll grow fat.â
The two of them acted out a scene.
Xuan Ge glanced at Ming Shu secretly. He gave a faint smile.
They finished dinner and started the tutoring session.
Ming Shu lay on the table and looked at Xuan Ge as he flipped through the book.
âAre you done?â Xuan Ge didnât raise his head.
Ming Shu wrote two more words with her pen.
While she was daydreaming, she wrote the correct answers. She hurriedly changed them.
I must give the little demon some room to perform.
She finished all the questions and passed the paper to Xuan Ge. âHere you go. Iâm sure that I got everything right this time.â
Xuan Ge put down his book and took the paper. âYou always manage to evade the right answers.â
Ming Shu smiled. âThat is a special ability too.â
Xuan Ge: â...â
It was quite special.
While Xuan Ge marked her paper, a servant came up and called Ming Shu. Yi Qiao had some things to discuss with her so she made her way down.
After Ming Shu went out, Xuan Ge heard her cellphone ringing.
Xuan Ge glanced at the door.
He didnât plan to answer the call, but the other party kept calling her.
It was noisy. Xuan Ge wanted to silence the cellphone.
He took the bag and searched for her cellphone.
Lawyer Jiang was the one calling.
At this moment, Lawyer Jiang hung up. Her lock screen appeared.
Ming Shu didnât lock her cellphone. Xuan Ge turned it to silent mode and placed it back.
He saw the letter from the corner of his eyes.
He frowned. He looked at the door again. It was quiet.
He hesitated for a few minutes before taking the letter out.
He read it and then placed it back.
...
Ming Shu came up with a book. She placed it in front of Xuan Ge and asked, âTutor, help me choose. Uncle Yi says that I have to make a choice. He is so irritating.â
Xuan Geâs gaze landed on the book.
There were some exquisite pictures of furniture on the page.
âItâs your room. Why do you want me to choose?â
âIâm too lazy,â Ming Shu said, âitâs just a place where Iâll be sleeping.â
âIâm just your tutor.â Xuan Ge got up suddenly. âYou should make your own decision.â
Ming Shu: ???
Xuan Ge was shocked by his own reaction. His heart dropped. He turned and left.
Ming Shu looked at the empty room. âWhat happened to him?â
Buzz buzz buzzâ
Ming Shu took out her cellphone from her bag.
âLawyer Jiang?â
âMiss Shu Ran, I found the doctor.â
