Su Nianyi noticed that Ye Ruan's gaze had fallen on the roses climbing the wrought iron fence several times. Remembering that Ye Ruan seemed to like those roses when they were at the castle last week, Su Nianyi couldn't help but ask, "Little Ye, do you like roses too?"
Ye Ruan looked at Su Nianqiao and asked, "Who else likes it?"
“My little aunt.” Su Nianqu shrugged coolly.
Ye Ruan understood immediately; no wonder both the Su family's manor and Gu Chen's house across the street were filled with roses.
Su Nianqiao continued, "Actually, my aunt doesn't just like roses. She likes all kinds of flowers, and she also childishly likes Peppa Pig, Pigsy, and all kinds of pigs."
Ye Ruan recalled the interior design of the milk tea shop that Gu Chen opened at the entrance of Peking University.
“But you girls, it’s normal to like flowers, pigs, and other cute things,” Su Nian said, then sighed. “Sigh, my aunt’s hobbies are just not normal at all…”
Just thinking about his aunt's room made his scalp tingle.
Not only were there fake skeletal models displayed there, but his aunt also frequently brought real bones back from the bureau to play with. She also had bottles and jars filled with formalin containing various small animal organs, such as earthworm hearts.
He even suspected that his aunt might have a secret laboratory besides the one at home, where, like those twisted murderers in movies, she might preserve organs from the people she killed in formaldehyde as her own medals.
When he was young and impetuous a couple of years ago, he even stalked his aunt. After being caught by her and dragged home by the ear several times, he finally realized that his aunt wasn't that abnormal.
When Ye Ruan followed Su Nianyi to the outside of the villa's living room, she saw a woman with a neat short haircut standing at the door. The woman had a heroic and noble air about her, and time had hardly left any marks on her face. Although she was almost forty years old, she looked like she was in her twenties.
When the woman saw her, her face was full of gentle smiles, but her eyes were filled with gossip as she looked her up and down.
Ye Ruan knew that this person was Su Yiqing's wife, Su Nianqiao's mother, Li Mo'er.
But she patiently waited for Su Nianqian to call her "Mom" before politely greeting her, "Mrs. Su."
Li Mo'er has a spirited appearance, but her smile is beautiful, with her eyes crinkling. She said warmly, "Teacher Ye, hello! My daughter Nianqiao has been talking about you since last weekend. You are Gu Chen's girlfriend and Nianqiao's teacher, so please don't call me Mrs. Su. Just call me Sister Mo'er!"
Ye Ruan readily agreed, "Sister Mo'er."
"Yes!" Li Mo'er responded and then asked, "Teacher Ye, will you start tutoring Nian Yuan today or tomorrow?"
"If we start tomorrow, how about we have some tea and chat together today?"
Ye Ruan thought she was just here for an interview, but judging from Li Mo'er's attitude, it seemed that she had already decided to have Ye Ruan work as Nian Yuan's tutor.
Li Mo'er seemed to see through her thoughts and explained, "Teacher Ye, you don't need to feel guilty. We appointed you as Nianqian's tutor not because you are Gu Chen's girlfriend."
Instead, it was Nian Yuan himself who confessed his feelings for you and wanted you to be his teacher.
Of course, we also asked our friends at Kyoto University about your academic performance. You were admitted to Kyoto University through a special admission program, and it is said that in addition to Kyoto University, several other top universities in the world extended offers to you.
"I'm sure your knowledge is more than enough to teach this newbie, Nianjin."
Su Nian stood to the side, hands in her pockets, giving her mother a resentful look. "Mom, if you want to praise Xiao Yezi, just praise Xiao Yezi. Why belittle me?"
Even though he hired a tutor, he's not a complete novice, is he?
Li Mo'er glared at Su Nianwang, "Why are you calling me 'Little Ye Zi'? Call me Teacher Ye properly."
Su Nianqiao muttered to herself, "It was Teacher Ye herself who said I could call her Little Yezi, just like Aunt Yan Yan."
Ye Ruan spoke up to ease the tension between the two, and said with a smile, "Then you can call me Teacher Ye during class, and Little Yezi at other times."
Su Nianqiao nodded vigorously in agreement, "That's right, teachers and students should be like friends so that students can learn more easily and happily."
Li Mo'er smiled demurely and said, "I don't know where this child got so many twisted ideas from. Teacher Ye, his father and I will be away on a business trip for more than a month, so I'll have to leave his studies in your care."
Ye Ruan nodded, "Okay, then I'll find out about Nian Yuan's learning progress today and then create a detailed learning plan for him."
"Okay, then you can go ahead and get busy. Nianqiao, take good care of Teacher Ye. While your parents are away, listen to Teacher Ye and don't be naughty." After instructing Su Nianqiao, Li Mo'er let Su Nianqiao take Ye Ruan upstairs to their room.
As Li Mo'er watched Ye Ruan's retreating figure going upstairs, she was unconsciously lost in thought. It was so similar, those eyes really were similar!
If she hadn't already heard from the third brother beforehand, she definitely wouldn't have been able to control her emotions upon seeing it for the first time.
Just as Li Mo'er was staring blankly at the spiral staircase, Su Yiqing walked in from outside. He walked behind Li Mo'er, bent down, and gently kissed her hair. "Mo'er, what are you looking at?"
Li Mo'er stared at Su Yiqing and suddenly couldn't help but wonder what Su Yiqing looked like when Xiao Ruanruan was still around.
