Chu Jiangyi had been a devoted admirer for six years. One day in his junior year, he overheard her saying...
"He's just a backup, how could I ever take him seriously? How could I give...
How about this?
"But……"
"No buts. Even if the supply is unstable, I won't abandon you. If you really run out of work, you can come work as a handyman at my company. I won't let you go hungry. What do you think of this coordination plan?"
Xi Ran thought about it carefully and admitted that Uncle Chu's proposal was very tempting.
Chu Jiang interrupted, "Are you stupid? You won't agree to such a good offer? My sister may be a little slow, but as long as you teach her diligently, her chemistry grades will definitely improve by leaps and bounds. My parents will give you a big red envelope as a token of their gratitude."
"Yes, yes, yes! Little girl, please help me out, my daughter is really a headache."
Seeing Xi Ran's unmoved expression, Chu Jiang said with dissatisfaction, "Are you stupid? My dad has already promised you that if you can't find a tutoring job in the future, you can work odd jobs at the Chu Group. You can earn quite a bit of money working odd jobs at the Chu Group in a month, which is better than working hard at the convenience store for a month and only earning 2,000 yuan."
Hearing that there was a lot of money, Xi Ran's eyes lit up. "Okay, I'll resign from Aunt Bai's place tomorrow and come to the Chu family every Saturday and Sunday to tutor Ningning in chemistry. I'll make her love learning chemistry."
Yu Xuehui smiled with emotion, holding Xi Ran's hand tightly and refusing to let go. "You're such a good girl, so sensible. You're much more sensible than my Ningning. Thank you, Xi Ran."
"You're welcome, Auntie. It's what I should do."
"What do you mean by 'should' or 'shouldn't'? It's all thanks to your thoughtfulness, girl. Starting next week, you'll come to the Chu family to tutor Ningning. Jiang Yi will take you here every week, and you can go back to school on Sundays."
Chu Jiang glanced gratefully at his mother and silently cried out to her.
Oh my god!
You really are my dear mother!
He was just worried about not having a chance to nourish Xi Ran's body when his mother immediately handed him a pillow!
That's awesome!
Mom! If I can marry Xi Ran, you'll be instrumental in it!
"Yes, you'll come home with me on Saturday morning, stay at my house for one night, and come to school with me on Sunday night. Meals will be provided during the week."
Yu Xuehui chimed in, "Jiang Yi is right, let's do it that way."
Xi Ran wanted to say something more, but Chu Jiangyi stopped her with a look, so she had to give up.
"Thank you very much, Auntie. I'll be troubling you again in the future."
Yu Xuehui smiled and said, "You're being too polite, child. Don't be so polite in the future, okay?"
"Uh-huh!"
With the matter resolved, Chu Wentao and Yu Xuehui both breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Zhebin met Chu Jiangyi's gaze, and the two exchanged strange looks.
Chu Jiang also gave Xiao Zhebin a smug look.
Xiao Zhebin shook his head and smiled.
Seeing that it was time for a nap, Yu Xuehui said to Chu Jiangyi, "Take your friends to the guest rooms on the second floor to rest. You can take them for a walk around the neighborhood this afternoon. Your father and I are getting old, and if we really can't stay up any longer, we'll go back to rest. Old people start to feel sleepy when it's time for a nap."
Everyone greeted them, and the two went back to their room to sleep.
Chu Jiangning pulled Xi Ran away directly, "You stinky brother, I'll take Xi Ran to see the room. You settle your good brothers in."
"good!"
Chu Jiangning received a pardon and immediately grabbed Xi Ran and ran away.
Qiu Bojie looked puzzled. "Your sister is really outgoing. She hasn't known Xi Ran for very long, so why is she so attached to her? This doesn't make sense."
"They had already met before."
Xiao Zhebin's gossip-loving spirit began to ignite.
"You brought Xi Ran back to meet your parents so early."
Chu Jiang rolled his eyes at him and said, "I'm too lazy to argue with you. Hurry up and come check on your room. I'm tired and need to take a nap."
"I'm not sleepy. Let's chat first. I'm more interested in hearing gossip."
"What gossip!"
"My only hobby is gossiping, and you're still not satisfied with that? Are you trying to suffocate me?"
"You deserve to suffocate."
"You...you'll get your comeuppance for treating your good brother like this."
