"If I go to your house, I can't always bother the driver to take me there," Qin Yuhuan pursed her lips. "I have to ask my parents if they have time. We can arrange a place and they can come to pick me up nearby."
This is Qin Yuhuan's dilemma. If she didn't consider anything else, she could agree without hesitation, but she would involuntarily consider her parents and couldn't bear to cause them trouble.
Ziyi asked, "Anything else?"
Qin Yuhuan shook his head. "That's all for now. I'm sorry, Xiaozi."
"Then let me tell you some solutions. See if you can accept them?"
Qin Yuhuan thought that by saying these words, she was already rejecting Ziyi in disguise, but surprisingly, Ziyi didn't seem to be planning to give up.
“Tuition fees are a small issue. If you feel you need to give me money, it’s not too late to pay me back when you get a job in the future. This is how Shen Zhiming owes me, and I will accept it.”
Ziyi didn't directly reject Qin Yuhuan's offer of money. Instead, she used another approach, "If you can improve your math skills, you'll definitely get into Peking University or Tsinghua University in your second year of high school, regardless of whether you choose liberal arts or science. You can choose any of the top universities in China."
Now... it's a bit dangerous. After all, with only 50 points in math, not to mention the college entrance examination, he can't even get an A in the high school entrance examination. If he doesn't get an A in the high school entrance examination, according to the admission policy, some key universities may refuse to admit Qin Yuhuan even if his score is high enough.
"Is this okay?"
Qin Yuhuan finally nodded. She agreed with Ziyi's statement and was convinced that she would have a certain ability to make money in the future.
"Second, the driver issue. This driver was hired specifically for me by my father. His salary is not low, and his only job is to follow my instructions."
At this point, Ziyi changed her position, running from across from Qin Yuhuan to sit next to her. "Look, I have to go to school every day. I only use him on weekends when I'm out for tutoring. He's usually quite free, but his monthly salary is in the tens of thousands. What's wrong with us ordering him around?"
Unconsciously, the address changed from "you and me" to "we". "Let me do the math for you. He picks me up and drops me off at most ten times a week, and each trip takes fifteen minutes. Isn't this tens of thousands of dollars a month too easy?"
"Even if," Ziyi took another big step back, "even if I include the time he spent on the road to pick me up, I'd work at most forty hours a month."
Qin Yuhuan followed Ziyi's thoughts and calculated, and found that the driver's hourly wage was really ridiculously high.
Seeing that Xiao Qin was stunned by her trick, Ziyi curled the corners of her lips, "So it's not a big deal. If I really want to make a fuss, I should thank you. You made my money worthwhile, didn't you?"
Qin Yuhuan:...?
"Then how about I bring you some fruit and snacks? My mom makes delicious snacks."
After hearing this, Ziyi felt relieved. "It's all right. I'll eat whatever you bring. I'm not picky about food, Yuyu."
Qin Yuhuan, who had been working with Ziyi for a while: ...
Saying that you are not picky about food is the biggest lie in the world.
When Shen Zhiming heard that he would have another partner to do homework with, he was very surprised. "Will Yuyu actually agree? Did you cast a spell on her?"
Ziyi picked up the eraser on the table and threw it at Shen Zhiming. "I'm going to cast a hammer spell. If I have the ability, I'll cast it on you first. I'll cast a homework spell on you so that I don't get high blood pressure just by looking at you every day."
However, she still shared the process of persuading Qin Yuhuan at noon with Shen Zhiming. Shen Zhiming: ...
"Didn't you tell Yu Yu that besides being a driver, he's also a bodyguard?"
That person was picked out by Ziyi's father Zhao Fengzhuo from countless people. He was raised at a cost of more than tens of thousands of dollars a month, just in case of any "what if" situation.
"I didn't tell her. If I had, she definitely wouldn't have come. But I didn't lie to her either," Ziyi said without any sense of guilt about "tricking anyone." Her long legs tapped the front lever of the table, and her chair swayed from side to side, her posture very ruffian. "At most, I didn't tell you everything. You better keep your mouth shut."
I was afraid that Shen Zhiming was a big mouth and would tell her behind her back.
"She's quite sensible. I heard she has three children. Maybe..."
Ziyi was just about to say that they were not financially well-off, but Qin Yuhuan's store was in her shopping mall, and it was a busy shop in the basement. She knew how much turnover a busy shop could make in a year. No matter how she looked at it, Qin Yuhuan's family had nothing to do with the adjective "not well-off".
“You’ll have to ask me about that.” Shen Zhiming smiled mysteriously, “Yiyi, how about you beg me and I’ll tell you about the situation in Yuyu’s family?”
Ziyi couldn't help it and kicked Shen Zhiming's chair across the table, "If you have to fart, let it out quickly and give it back to me, I beg you, you've become more capable, right?"
Shen Zhiming was aggrieved and muttered, "I said you must like Yu Yu. I've never seen you so good-tempered to anyone in my life."
Every now and then, during the break, she would go out to buy food and drinks. Usually, other people would bring food and drinks to Ziyi, but Ziyi would be so cold and indifferent that it was never her turn to show her kindness.
Ziyi sneered, "Hasn't my temper always been good?"
Shen Zhiming: ...
This is bullshit!
"Ah, let me tell you the truth. I heard that his family has a little sister who is only in the third grade. The little sister is very..." Shen Zhiming was silent for a long time before squeezing out a word, "cool. Nowadays, elementary schools have after-school care. Her mother sends cakes or other food every now and then, and she shares it with the whole class."
"When the parents' committee discusses what gifts to give during the holidays, her mother is always the first to rush in. From what you said today, it doesn't sound like a family at all."
It turns out that they really are from the same family.
"How do you know so much?" Ziyi thought for a moment and finally understood. "Is your aunt the homeroom teacher of Xiao Qin's younger sister?"
"That's right," Shen Zhiming slapped his thigh, "I also heard my aunt say that when she came home. She said that my family opened a grocery store in Longxing. She was whispering to my parents, are these days opening stores in shopping malls so profitable?"
"Then don't you see whose mall it is?" Ziyi chuckled. "Let me tell you this, even in Licheng, the annual turnover of a popular store in Longxing Mall won't be less than this amount."
Ziyi stretched out a palm and flipped it back and forth in front of Shen Zhiming. "That's an underestimation. Licheng has low consumption and a small permanent population, so the net profit is 200,000 to 300,000 yuan a year."
Even if it's only 200,000, it's more than enough to support a family of five.
So... is Qin Yuhuan's understanding innate?
“Yiyi, are you…” Shen Zhiming began to smirk.
"No, stop talking nonsense." Ziyi twisted Shen Zhiming back with great force, "Don't let me hear rumors about Qin Yuhuan and me outside. If I hear them, I'll twist your head off."
Shen Zhiming: ...
"This is the difference between a childhood friend and a sweetheart! No conscience!"
Ziyi: ...
