"I know," Tantai Ming gave a firm reply.
His eyes radiated confidence, his smile playful and frivolous.
The handsome and sunny face that he usually wore seemed like that of a different person when infused with this roguish charm, making him feel almost like two different men.
Chu Yanxi looked at Tantai Ming, her eyes filled with surprise and confusion. f r\eewebnovel.c(o)(m)
"Mr. Tantai, why would you know about my father’s situation?" Chu Yanxi asked tentatively.
"I know a lot of things," Tantai Ming whispered into Chu Yanxi’s ear as he leaned in close, "Don’t you want to defeat Qin Susu? Then you’ll need to put in more effort. Just using the tactics you had before won’t do the trick."
Chu Yanxi’s eyes widened in shock.
How could he know?
What else does he know?
And she’s just an ordinary child in the eyes of most people. Normal adults wouldn’t talk to her like this!
She had this suspicion the last time he talked to her, but since the conversation was brief and she got caught up in other things afterward, she never delved deep into this new teacher’s background. f r\eewebnovel.c(o)(m)
Now, it seemed that Mr. Tantai, with his surname, wasn’t as sunny and kind-hearted as he had seemed!
"I don’t have any issues with Susu," Chu Yanxi played dumb to be safe.
"Have you forgotten my last reminder for you to expose Susu’s strange strength and let others deal with her?" Tantai Ming reminded her.
Of course, she hadn’t forgotten!
She knew this man seemed to be aware of something about her.
But as long as she didn’t give a clear response, she wouldn’t leave any evidence against herself.
"Mr. Tantai, I don’t understand what you are saying! Susu doesn’t like to play with me, but I still like Susu a lot! If she’s willing, I would love to be her friend!"
Chu Yanxi deliberately responded with a childlike tone and phrasing, even claiming to like Qin Susu, to avoid being caught out.
Tantai Ming’s lips curled into a teasing smile, not surprised at all by Chu Yanxi’s feigning ignorance. He calmly pulled out his phone.
Chu Yanxi watched his slender fingers tap a few times on the phone’s screen.
Then, he brought the phone in front of her.
The moment she saw the content on the screen, Chu Yanxi’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Tantai Ming.
How could this be?
How could he...
Tantai Ming chuckled softly, "Don’t be surprised. Just go to class and do what you need to do. After school, you’ll see your father again."
His tone was light but also very certain.
"Really?" Chu Yanxi sought a more definite answer.
"What do you think?" Tantai Ming raised an eyebrow.
It must be true.
Chu Yanxi’s eyes lit up with joy; this time, she believed what Tantai Ming had said.
Chu Yanxi thanked Tantai Ming, "Thank you."
"You’re welcome. After all, it’s conditional," Tantai Ming said with a smile.
"Okay, I know, and I won’t forget. This is something I was supposed to do anyway!" Chu Yanxi promised Tantai Ming.
"Very good."
Then Chu Yanxi inquired further, "My father was arrested because of the Qin Family’s doing, right?"
"Little friend Chu Yanxi, the world is very pragmatic. If you want to have more, to know more, you need to put in the corresponding effort. If you want more information and help from me, you’ll have to show me your actions first, show me your results and progress, understand?"
