Lin Xiuyan quickly replied, "It's nothing, I just have a few math problems that I can't solve, so I'd like to ask Young Master Fan for help."
Ye Junfei asked, "What counts?"
Lin Xiuyan then took the manuscript paper from the table and handed it to him: "These are all."
These are the data she needs to make the mechanism; only with accurate data can she create a sophisticated mechanism.
Ye Junfei glanced at it and saw that it contained a bunch of complicated data, which actually used obscure mathematical techniques from the "Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art".
He was also somewhat surprised, and looked at Fan Xilou, asking, "Did you calculate all of this?"
Fan Xilou shook his head: "Not entirely. The previous part was all calculated by Miss Lin. I just helped her sort it out."
Ye Junfei was surprised again. He had only seen Lin Xiuyan's playboy side today, and as soon as he returned, she gave him another surprise.
Lin Xiuyan laughed and said, "What I calculated were all basic and didn't require much skill. Young Master Fan's calculations were the most accurate."
Fan Xilou hurriedly replied, "Miss Lin, you flatter me. You are the best female mathematician I have ever met."
"As for your mathematical skills, ordinary scholars are far inferior to you."
Just as Lin Xiuyan was about to continue praising Fan Xilou, Ye Junfei looked at her tenderly, and she immediately changed her tune: "I also think I'm pretty amazing."
"But I think that no matter how good I am, I am not as good as Master Ye."
Fan Xilou immediately chimed in, "Miss Lin is right. Master Ye is a man of great manners and a rare gentleman."
Lin Xiuyan continued to praise, "Master Ye is not only good-looking, but also skilled in martial arts."
Fan Xilou chimed in, "If Master Ye can teach Miss Lin etiquette, he must be a learned man."
Lin Xiuyan gave Ye Junfei a thumbs up: "Well said, Master Ye is skilled in both literature and martial arts, unparalleled in the world..."
"Hey! Why are you twisting my ear?"
Ye Junfei was too lazy to listen to her nonsense, so he grabbed her ear and shoved her against the wall: "You have no manners when you sit or stand."
"You think you can get away with just a few flattering words? Stand here for a few hours straight."
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She really didn't know what she had done to offend him.
Just as she was about to move, Ye Junfei glared at her, and she immediately stood up straight.
Ye Junfei snorted coldly and had a maid bring over a bowl. He filled the bowl with water and placed it on Lin Xiuyan's head.
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She praised him so much that he got sick?
Why is he so difficult to please!
Ye Junfei's peach blossom eyes were as gentle as spring water in March: "Stand still, if you spill a drop of water, you'll stand for another hour."
Lin Xiuyan: "!!!!!"
Ye Junfei said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Now that I have become your teacher, I must properly train you."
He emphasized the word "training," making Lin Xiuyan's heart tremble.
Even a fool would know this is definitely not a good thing.
Fan Xilou originally wanted to come over and say a word for Lin Xiuyan, but Ye Junfei glanced at him with his charming eyes and said, "What advice does Young Master Fan have?"
Fan Xilou felt as if that glance had pierced his very soul, and he quickly replied, "No advice needed!"
"I suddenly remembered I have something to do, you guys continue."
He turned and ran away as soon as he finished speaking.
Seeing his disloyal attitude, Lin Xiuyan felt that all her flattery today had been for nothing!
She could only hope that her parents would come back to rescue her, and she quickly gave Qiu Tao, who was standing to the side, a meaningful look.
Qiu Tao was quick-witted and immediately went to help her get reinforcements.
Ye Junfei didn't stop them from their little antics, but just gave Lin Xiuyan a half-smile: "Be good!"
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
When she heard his gentle voice, she felt as if the top of her head was about to fly off.
When Lin Yunzhi returned, he saw Lin Xiuyan standing in the corner with a bowl balanced on her head. He looked surprised and said, "Yan'er, what trick are you playing now?"
Lin Xiuyan hurriedly said, "Father, Master Ye is punishing me! I feel so bad, please expel him!"
Lin Yunzhi asked curiously, "Why did he punish you?"
Lin Xiuyan already knew why Ye Junfei had punished her, but she certainly couldn't reveal the real reason.
She reached out to remove the bowl from her head: "I..."
"Don't move!" Lin Yunzhi stopped her. "Master Ye is such a reasonable person, how could he punish you for no reason? You must have done something wrong!"
“Otherwise, why would you willingly stand here to be punished? He wasn’t even there to watch over you, yet you still stood there obediently, which only proves that you have a guilty conscience.”
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She tried to explain, but Lin Yunzhi waved his hand and said, "Don't bother explaining. You always have a lot of fallacies, and I won't listen."
After he finished speaking, he bowed to the west and said, "Buddha, you have finally shown your power!"
"Finally, there's someone in this world who can keep my Yan'er in check! It's like a gift from heaven!"
Lin Xiuyan: "!!!!!"
What's wrong with her dad this time?
Lin Yunzhi looked at her with great comfort and said, "I can't control you. Your mother usually only knows how to hit you, and she feels bad for a long time after she hits you."
“We’ve always been a little worried that if you keep acting like this, you might ruin your husband’s family after you get married.”
"Now that's great, Master Ye has appeared out of nowhere. He's good-looking and can even come up with a way to control you."
"The key point is that he doesn't have a family yet, making him the perfect son-in-law. With him around, you're guaranteed to succeed."
Lin Xiuyan: "...Father!"
Lin Yunzhi waved his hand and said, "Stand still. There's no way you're going to dismiss the Grand Tutor on New Year's Eve!"
He finished speaking and walked away humming a little tune.
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She was utterly speechless!
Just as Lin Yunzhi left, Qu Shuangyue returned. Seeing Lin Xiuyan's appearance, she asked, "What are you doing now?"
Having learned from her previous experience, Lin Xiuyan was about to fabricate a story to smear Ye Junfei when she heard Ye Junfei's voice: "I'm teaching Miss Lin how to stand properly."
“Miss Lin has been studying etiquette for some time, but has not made much progress. I can only use some methods that seem a bit forceful. Please understand, Madam.”
Qu Shuangyue laughed and patted Ye Junfei on the shoulder, saying, "Did you train like this back then?"
Ye Junfei nodded, and Qu Shuangyue gave Ye Junfei a thumbs up: "Not bad, you really have a way."
Seeing that things were not going well, Lin Xiuyan hurriedly cried out, "Mother, that's not it! He's just settling a personal score!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Qu Shuangyue glared at her. "Someone as beautiful as Xiaoye is so broad-minded, how could she possibly do something like settling personal scores?"
"Besides, even if it's a matter of settling personal scores, it's definitely you who offended Xiaoye first, it's your fault!"
After she finished speaking, she said to Ye Junfei, "Teach her well. As long as you don't cripple her, it doesn't matter."
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
Is this really her biological mother?
Ye Junfei bowed politely and said, "Madam, rest assured, I will definitely teach Miss Lin well."
