Chapter 8: Clearly Marked Prices for Transactions
The Fu family villa is located in the chariot area where there are many new rich people. It is surrounded by mountains and water and has an elegant environment.
Although Fu Keren made his fortune in mining, he did not have many bad habits of a nouveau riche. On the contrary, because his mother, Fu Liangxia's grandmother, was an intellectual, he was brought up to be gentle and a little old-fashioned.
The decoration of the villa was also designed by him, following the most traditional style, with green tiles, white walls, bamboo forests and flowing water. Two small ancient lamps were hung in front of the main building, which was very elegant.
After Fu Liangxia got off the car, she picked up her schoolbag and went into the house. When Mrs. Zhao saw her enter, she lowered her voice and said to her, "Xiaoxia is back. We have guests at home now. The master is entertaining them in the living room. He asked you to come over when you get back."
Her father's guest? Why let her go?
Fu Liangxia was confused. He handed the schoolbag to Mrs. Zhao and asked her to put it in the house, then turned and went to the living room.
In the living room, sitting opposite Fu Keren was a man in a suit and tie. He was well-dressed, his hair was meticulously combed, and he was about 28 or 29 years old... As for why he was said to be this age? This was Fu Liangxia's intuition -
Because men in their twenties and twenties always have a kind of arrogance that "if they are a little luckier they can dominate the world."
An arrogant man certainly doesn't want to be called uncle by a high school student, but it also seems like his brother is trying to curry favor with the student, so Fu Liangxia thought about it and just said, "I'm back."
Fu Keren smiled and waved at her, motioning her to sit next to him.
"Miss Fu?" After she sat down, the man spoke, his voice a little grainy. Fu Liangxia secretly suspected that he might be a big smoker.
"Hello."
"I heard from your father that you have excellent grades. Even though you have been staying in the sanatorium, you still achieved very good results in the entrance examination."
Fu Liangxia looked up and met his gaze, nodding hesitantly: "Yes, it's not bad."
Hearing this, the man was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect her to be so unmodest. He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "How's math?"
Fu Keren, who was standing next to him, chimed in at the right moment: "Xiao Xia is best at math, and she got a perfect score on the entrance exam this time."
Fu Liangxia was even more confused. Until now, no one had come to explain to her why she was sitting here.
But she still agreed: "I like math and I'm good at math."
The man finally revealed an expression that could barely be considered satisfied. "My boss has a younger brother who's the same age as you. His grades are a real headache, especially in math. He always gets scores that make his brother doubt his intelligence."
"I'm wondering if you'd be willing to tutor him every school night from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM. I'd be happy to pay you well."
Fu Liangxia felt that the other party's attitude was not friendly. The words "I won't treat you unfairly" were also read very slowly, as if telling her to think carefully and not be ungrateful.
"His brother's situation is rather unique," he said. "He's recently sought out several experienced and renowned teachers, but their methods didn't seem to suit him, so they all left."
"His brother wants to find a student who also goes to St. Lander to be his tutor." He shook the cigarette in his hand.
Fu Liangxia didn't even notice when he ignited it, because she was just asking the system whether this was also a required task in the plot line.

Fu Liangxia: “…”
Fu Liangxia: “???”
No, don’t they mean the same thing?
And with this hilarious title, Fu Liangxia felt like her expression might have cracked for a moment.
In order to avoid being noticed, she calmed herself down and looked down carefully.

【Brief Story Synopsis:
He is the domineering and cool bad student;
She is a gentle and lovely new tutor.
They gathered here by accident to celebrate their common friend... The script was wrong, let's do it again.
They gathered here due to force majeure. He escaped and she chased him. They couldn't escape even if they had wings!
Here, score! 】
Fu Liangxia: “…”
Which idiot wrote this copy?
Despite all the complaints, Fu Liangxia stopped struggling when she realized it was something she had to do, and simply readjusted her originally planned study time.
Anyway, there are rewards for completing side quests, so she doesn't lose out.
But since she has to set aside two hours every day for tutoring, she has to make up for it in other time.
After she agreed to the man's request, how to negotiate the remuneration became a matter between Fu Keren and the man.
"Good boy."
Father Fu patted her forearm kindly with a gentle expression.
These words implicitly expressed his approval of Fu Liangxia and indirectly confirmed his approval of her actions. This scene certainly did not escape the man's eyes.
But he didn't care about it, or rather, he was happy to see it happen.
Just as he had investigated beforehand, the girl from the Fu family had excellent academic performance and was the one that Fu's father had placed more hopes on.
Fu Keren started his business in mining. After making a lot of money, he did not squander it extravagantly like ordinary nouveau riche and lived off his savings. Instead, he maintained his original industry while investing in new technologies and seeking breakthroughs.
The project he was working on recently happened to be an area of interest to the Fu Group.
However, Fu's company has many partners to choose from, and the Fu family is not the most outstanding one among them. If Fu Keren wants them to agree, he needs to come up with more attractive conditions.
At this moment, Fu Keren suddenly came to him and said that he could solve his biggest problem.
The biggest challenge?
Feng Qian almost sneered out loud. What worried him most now was the second young master of the Fu family's study problem.
Although the Fu Family could easily find renowned teachers from all over the country, or even send Fu Haoyao abroad, that would delay his exposure to the core business for at least four years. Furthermore, if the board of directors got wind of this, they would question whether someone unable to attend a prestigious university was capable of managing the company.
Therefore, the task of improving Fu Haoyao's grades and finding him a good tutor fell on Feng Qian.
Even if he doesn't want to be resurrected, at least he needs to be admitted to a good university.
After all, the second young master was not originally trained as an heir. It is enough for him to be able to manage part of the family's business.
The rest is still under the young master's care.
However, Feng Qian found it extremely difficult to fulfill this small request.
It’s nothing, Fu Haoyao is just too uncooperative!
He either disliked the teachers' difficult-to-understand speech, or disliked the teachers' arrogance and disrespect for him... In this way, he had already driven away nine teachers.
At that time, Fu Langshu, the eldest son of the Fu family, had a gloomy face. "I've almost invited you to a senior lecturer in the capital. Fu Haoyao, what else do you want?"
"Is it so hard to just stop making trouble and listen to the tutor's lessons?"
Fu Haoyao was lying on the sofa, playing games with headphones on, without saying a word.
Despite his authority being challenged, Fu Langshu still had the same expression: "This is the last time."
No one answered.
But Feng Qian knew that Fu Haoyao heard it, because he saw his fingers suddenly pause, and then returned to the rapid tapping state.
…
He was such a stubborn person, and Fu Keren told him that he had a way? Just with a girl of the same age?
Feng Qian didn't believe a word of it and even felt that the other party was making fun of him.
He didn't know anything else, but just based on Fu Haoyao's face, those little girls were fascinated by him, just like those rich girls in Saint Lander College, and some even ridiculously regarded him as some kind of "F4".
Feng Qian thought that maybe he couldn't keep up with the times.
Could it be that this is another person who is planning to sell his daughter for fame and fortune, with the intention of marrying his daughter into the Fu family?
He even had such a dark thought.
But Fu Keren had a good reputation and a clear and honest look. He had graduated from the same top domestic university as him and was even his direct senior. However, when he entered the school, he had already graduated, so the two of them had never met at school.
Or rather, he only knew him one-sidedly—
Fu Keren had excellent grades when he was in school. He published in journals without any bottleneck. It can be said that for many years after his graduation, his younger classmates lived in his shadow.
Feng Qian is no exception.
Therefore, Feng Qian felt that such a noble and upright person would not be willing to use such means.
He didn't say either good or bad at the time, but went back to investigate the daughter with excellent grades that Fu Keren mentioned.
This investigation actually made him discover something interesting.
Fu Liangxia was actually being trained as the heir.
She is a girl, and even a weak girl who has been staying in a nursing home all year round, but she is being trained by Fu Keren as his heir?
This is quite interesting.
He decided to meet her.
Make a decision later.
After meeting him in person, Feng Qian was surprised to find that Fu Liangxia was calm beyond his peers.
She sat obediently next to Fu Keren, quiet but not transparent, so that no one would ignore her. Her every move was steady and graceful like an adult.
Although Feng Qian still didn't believe that a little girl could change anything, he was now willing to give her a chance.
Then it was time for the adults. After Fu Liangxia went upstairs, he talked to Fu's father about the cooperation. Of course, he didn't agree directly, but decided the conditions based on Fu Haoyao's grades.
Fu Keren had no objection, but smiled and said, "Liang Xia is a child who will never disappoint you."
Feng Qian remained noncommittal.
Even though Fu Liangxia never disappoints, in a sense, the same is true for the one from the Fu family...
At this time, the family courtyard is restored.
The Fu Group has deep roots, spanning numerous sectors and complex industries. As the current CEO, Fu Langshu's daily workload is undeniable. While he doesn't have to manage the minutiae of the entire group, he only needs to make important decisions. However, weekly meetings with senior executives from various subsidiaries and their reports still require considerable energy.
Therefore, he didn't have much time to go home during the week, and the opportunity to take care of Fu Haoyao was even rarer. Usually, his secretary Feng Qian was responsible for any matters, and the same was true for finding a tutor this time.
After Fu Langshu picked up Fu Haoyao, he conveyed the news in the car that his new family church would be his classmate at St. Lander.
This news obviously made Fu Haoyao very unacceptable, and he even felt a little embarrassed -
He actually asked someone of the same age to teach him. Does that mean he looks down on him?
But apparently, like every other time, his protests were of no use except for a condescending glance from his brother.
"Heh." He sneered and said nothing more.
Anyway, we can just drive them away when the time comes, just like those disgusting clowns.
Thinking of his previous teachers, Fu Haoyao suddenly felt even worse.
