113 Collecting tutors!
“Class Ten A doesn’t need students to bring success. Of all people you should know Class A is synonymous with success.” Han Nanxian said with a gentle smile and turned his head only to find Song Xueyun and Lu Xuan in a deep argument.
Huo Mian turned his head in the same direction to find the source of surprise and uneasiness written on Han Nanxian’s face. She couldn’t help but ask, “What’s up with the students of class A? How are they acquainted with someone like Lu Xuan?”
Zhou Liling blinked her eyes innocently while a spark of fire ignited in her heart. “You don’t know?”
“What?” Huo Mian furrowed her brows.
“Song Xueyun and my cousin Lu Xuan are childhood friends,” Zhou Liling replied. “My cousin and she are so close that they often spend the night at each other’s house.”
Thud.
Huo Mian’s eyes widened in disbelief while Han Nanxian closed his eyes to refrain himself from lashing out at this girl. He knew what she was doing. She was ruining Song Xueyun’s image before the class. How ambitious!.
The bell rang and their PE class ended. It was time for the lunch break.
The argument between Lu Xuan and Song Xueyun intensified but no one went ahead to interfere. Then again, only a few people were there in the playground at that time.
Five minutes later, the students of class Ten K began coming out. An Xiulan was not allowed to eat at the cafeteria because that food was not prepared by the nutritionist that her mother had hired.
Qiao Wei decided to use the lunch break to read her Yaoi Boys that she couldn’t due to exams. Mona went to check up on her art club buddies and Song Ci had to go to the staff room to submit the homework notebooks. Therefore, only Shen Yue and Han Nanxian were with her at this time.
An Xiulan’s eyes sparkled when she saw her tutor. She wanted to go ahead and take advantage of him. Of course, in the most innocent way when she recalled that Han Zixin was still with her. She stopped in her footsteps and looked at her friend.
“Go ahead,” Han Zixin merely said with a shrug.
An Xiulan looked at him with a teary-eyed look. Actually, it was a great development for him. Him being able to be around Han Nanxian without going berserk.
However, it wasn’t only An Xiulan who was hesitant to go to Han Nanxian, Shen Yue too didn’t want to go there to have lunch with her classmates as Zhou Liling was standing there with Huo Mian. She didn’t want to cause a scene again.
In the end, she still followed An Xiulan.
Han Nanxian narrowed his eyes at the little creature that didn’t even reach his chest and had to crane her neck to look at her. She looked as if she could be blown by the gust of wind. What if she had to crane her neck for a long time and end by breaking it? Thus, he sat on the bench making it easier for her to look at him.
“Master,” An Xiulan’s voice was rather sweet and… trapping. “Thank you for visiting me when I was sick. My mother told me you came to see me with Student Song.”
“En,” Han Nanxian said with a smile. Deep inside, he felt like something was not right with this girl.
“Master, your student has been selected for the English contest. Please guide me well,” An Xiulan said, her eyes filled with gratitude as she joined both of her hands in a pleading position.
Han Nanxian was not surprised when she said she was selected for the contest among all the students in her class. Her English was good. Literally good. She could beat him in spoken English. Her grammar was even better than many students in her class. It was just that she liked to experiment with question papers and didn’t believe in her instinct.
Huo Mian and Zhou Liling snorted as they heard her. Of course, the girl would be selected. The quality of students in Class Ten K was one worse than the others.
Han Zixin merely gave those two girls a half-smile and they shut their mouths, before taking a step back.
“Xue’r how many tutors are you gonna collect? Are you collecting tutors or trophies?” Shen Yue could not help but utter these words. She couldn’t understand why An Xiulan needed so many tutors? From what she had heard, the latter had a special teacher who was responsible for strengthening her base in Mandarin, Gu Shangyan had been continuously giving her mathematics classes, and she herself had been teaching the girl social studies and a little of the language. Now she had persuaded Han Nanxian too?
What one earth was she going to do with so many tutors?
“Didn’t you mom ask to take a rest for a few days?” Han Nanxian asked. An Qinyan informed him not to take tuition classes for a few days.
“I’m well now,” An Xiulan replied.
Han Zixin gave her a dirty look but she only smiled at him. The boy was just being too strict!
“Fine,” Han Nanxian muttered. “But only English. No other subject.”
“God Han–”
Before Huo Mian or Zhou Liling could express their dissatisfaction, he flashed them an impatient look.
What a nuisance!
Since they could not express their dissatisfaction with him, they left the arena in anger. Still, it didn’t mean the war was over.
When he saw water bottles and tiffin boxes in their hands, he couldn’t help but tease them. “Aren’t you gonna invite me to have lunch with you?”
“No!”
“Yes!”
Shen Yue and An Xiulan looked at each other.
“I thought students should be sincere to their masters, “Han Nanxian commented, cocking his brow. Well, he was testing the water. He shouldn’t press the boundaries but he could not help it.
“Fine,” An Xiulan grumbled and squeezed Han Zixin’s hand.
