Chapter 5 You Are Not Suitable

The first tutoring class was on Saturday, and Lin Shutang arrived at 8:30, half an hour earlier than the agreed time.

The little girl's name was Chen Runling, and she was in first grade. When Lin Shutang arrived, she wasn't awake yet. Chen Jinyao had the nanny take her out of bed. After washing her up, she hung onto her father's shoulder, sleepily resting and refusing to get off.

Mr. Chen was at a loss for words. "The teacher is here. Be good and let Auntie take you out to play after class."

After getting the guarantee, the little girl reluctantly looked at Lin Shutang straight in the eye.

Lin Shutang: "Hello, Xiaoling!"

The little girl looked at her carefully, then struggled to get down from her father's arms: "Dad, you go upstairs to work, we have class. Don't worry, I will listen to the teacher."

Mr. Chen touched his daughter's head and said, "She's so obedient. It seems Xiaoling likes her teacher very much."

The little girl nodded: "I like it."

Mr. Chen looked at Lin Shutang and said, "Teacher Lin, Xiaoling is quite naughty. I'm sorry to trouble you."

Lin Shutang took the child's hand and said, "Don't worry, I will teach Xiaoling well."

After handing the child to Lin Shutang, Mr. Chen went to the study. The nanny was busy in the kitchen, leaving only two people, one big and one small, in the living room.

When Chen Runling saw her father leave, she immediately lost her obedient appearance.

He looked at Lin Shutang with suspicion: "I heard that you are a graduate student at Peking University?"

Lin Shutang nodded.

"What I said just now was all false, don't take it seriously. Also, I advise you to give up as soon as possible. After today, go and tell your dad that you can't teach me, otherwise I will let you know how powerful I am." The baby voice with unclear pronunciation spoke threatening words, which sounded childish and had no deterrent effect.

Lin Shutang smiled lightly: "Okay. Let's start the class now!"

The little girl opened her textbook and pouted, "If I didn't want my dad to waste his money, I wouldn't even want to attend this class. I'm very smart and don't need anyone to teach me."

"Well, Xiaoling is very smart."

He is indeed smart. After half a class, he can understand most of the content after just one or two times.

This is indeed rare among first-grade children.

But, after all, they are just children. They start to get distracted frequently within half an hour of sitting down, touching this and scratching that.

"Do you have a boyfriend?" Just as Lin Shutang was teaching her about cylinders, the little girl suddenly looked up and asked this question.

Such a young child already knew the word "boyfriend". Lin Shutang just found it funny: "No, what's wrong?"

"Nothing..." The little girl opened her mouth, but then changed the subject and stopped talking. She sat up straight and whispered, "Nothing. Let's go to class!"

That little movement was like a little hamster seeing a cat, lowering its head and being so well-behaved.

Lin Shutang heard footsteps and turned around to see a tall man coming in.

The nanny stepped forward and took the things from his hand: "The master is waiting for you upstairs."

"good."

When he passed by the two of them, Lin Shutang heard the little girl call out, "Uncle."

"Hmm" was his simple response. Thinking of the scene when the little girl interrupted the teacher when he came in just now, he reminded her again: "Listen carefully to what the teacher says."

"good."

During the entire process, Li Yansheng didn't say a word to Lin Shutang, and they didn't even make eye contact, as if they were strangers meeting for the first time.

Lin Shutang watched him go upstairs. The man was tall and had long legs. When he walked, one could vaguely see the lines of his muscles tensed by the exertion under the cloth.

Lin Shutang thought, this world is really small.

"Stop looking! You two are not suitable." A baby voice came from my ears.

Lin Shutang retracted his gaze and lowered his head in confusion: "Hmm?"

"My cousin is already over 30 years old, and you..." The little girl touched her chin and looked at Lin Shutang carefully again.

"You are about the same age as Sister Xiaoshu. You two are not suitable for each other." Great-grandfather said that her cousin was in his thirties and still not married. She remembered it.
