“I’m too much?” Her lips curled up slowly. “Speaking of which, I’m very curious. In the past, no matter how I begged you, you refused to come to my house. Today… did you really come to tutor her?”

“I’m too much?” Her lips curled up slowly. “Speaking of which, I’m very curious. In the past, no matter how I begged you, you refused to come to my house. Today… did you really come to tutor her?”

Li Tingshen clenched his fists in his pocket and said coldly, “What else do you think?”

Ye Qingqiu raised an eyebrow and said, “Last night, everyone in the Ye family probably knew that I would bring someone to my house for tutoring tonight… That Liang Xuer, who has always been arrogant, would never approach my room. Why did she suddenly appear in my room with you today?”

Li Tingshen’s pupils constricted.

!!

“I don’t know what Liang Xuer told you to make you agree to come to my house tonight. I’m glad that you’re here. But I haven’t settled some scores with her.”

“As for tonight’s dinner… If she dares to pick out anyone who isn’t my father, I’ll smash her mouth. My father wronged me not because he wanted her to go against me and give him a hard time. I’ve told her eight hundred times to stay away from you, but not only did she not listen, she even openly asked you to tutor her. She even brought you home and flaunted your relationship in front of me…”

“Do you think I should be indifferent or teach her a lesson?”

“…”

Ye Qingqiu paused for a while and looked up with a lazy and soft smile on her face. “I was very angry back then and couldn’t remain indifferent. I really hope that if I were to be with a boy who was interested in me one day, you would be like me and want to tear him into pieces.”

Li Tingshen’s eyes finally moved slightly. He lowered his gaze and looked at her quietly.

The hand that had not relaxed in his pocket tightened, and his lips tightened.

But… being torn into pieces?

“So you should be glad that I didn’t choose to be indifferent. If I’m indifferent one day, Li Tingshen, you’ll lose more than just my attitude towards you.”

Li Tingshen looked at her quietly.

Ye Qingqiu was used to his cold personality. She snorted and turned to walk down the stairs.

“So, if Liang Xuer isn’t hopelessly stupid, or if she doesn’t play tricks, she’ll be able to catch up with the classes in 20 days at most. Don’t think I don’t know that the third-year classes are just to consolidate what happened two years ago.”

“You don’t think you’re stupid. In other words, you spent a vacation last holiday. You’re playing tricks.”

When Ye Qingqiu heard that, she walked down the stairs and turned around. She looked up at Li Tingshen who was standing on the stairs and said calmly, “You sound as if you really can’t tell that I did it on purpose.”

Li Tingshen pursed his lips.

She had shot herself in the foot.

Seeing him like this, Ye Qingqiu’s beautiful eyes darted around as a smile appeared on her face.

She held the handrail of the stairs and tilted her head slightly, a lazy smile on her face.

“Why didn’t you expose me back then?”

Li Tingshen frowned and strode down the stairs, looking down at her.

A rare nonchalant smile appeared on his usually cold face.

“It’s not that I don’t want to expose you, but I personally think you’re really stupid.”

The smile on Ye Qingqiu’s face froze. Just as he finished speaking, his tall figure brushed past her. Two seconds later, her brows relaxed and she turned around to follow behind him.

Li Tingshen greeted Ye Jianyun and walked towards the door.

Ye Qingqiu didn’t only have eyes for Li Tingshen.

Xu Wenxuan had been helping her for the past few days. In fact, she had given Li Tingshen too much attention and neglected him for too long.

She had to send him off properly.

The Xu family’s chauffeur had been waiting for a long time. Ye Qingqiu sent Xu Wenxuan to the car.

“Be careful on your way back. Send me a message when you’re back.”

Ye Qingqiu was wearing a simple but expensive dress. She stood there elegantly with a gentle smile on her face.

Her soft voice was full of smiles.

It was easy to see a smile on Ye Qingqiu’s face.

Most of them had lazy smiles on their faces.

Anyone could see that official smile. It didn’t reach her eyes or her heart. It was as fake as it could be.

Regardless of whether she was smiling or not, no one was willing to take the initiative to offend her.

However, her smile was warm and sincere.

No matter what, she treated Xu Wenxuan differently.

Xu Wenxuan’s car was in front and Li Tingshen’s car was behind. He stood in front of the car and watched coldly as Ye Qingqiu waved goodbye to Xu Wenxuan.

It wasn’t until Xu Wenxuan’s car left that she retracted her hand and walked to his side.

She scanned her surroundings and pursed her lips. “You only solved one question for me tonight. You’ve given her so many days of lessons, but there’s no one at all? The eldest daughter of the Ye family sure is arrogant.”

Li Tingshen opened the car door and said calmly, “You don’t have to force yourself.”

Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips and watched as he got into the car without even leaving a window. The car started and drove away in the next second.

Ye Qingqiu opened her mouth and watched as the car drove further and further away. She turned around angrily.

“Crazy, did he provoke him?”

Back in the house, Ye Jianyun stood up from the sofa with a glass of milk in his hand.

“You sent them all away?”

“Yeah.”

Ye Qingqiu walked over and took the glass. She finished the milk and walked towards the stairs with Ye Jianyun.

When she went upstairs, Ye Jianyun placed his other hand on the railing. When he stepped on the stairs, he sighed.

Ye Qingqiu turned to look at him. “What’s wrong?”

Ye Jianyun climbed another step. “Sixteen… Are you sure it’s him?”

Ye Qingqiu didn’t know why her father suddenly asked this question. She thought that it was because it was rare for Li Tingshen to come.

She was silent for two seconds before asking,

“Dad, I’m not experienced enough at the age of 16. You’re 29 years older than me. Tell me, do you think anyone is better than Li Tingshen?”

Ye Jianyun was silent for a while before he stopped and stared at her. He asked tentatively, “The two young masters of the Bo family?”

Ye Qingqiu recalled and smiled. “I’ve met the two of them at least 80 times. If I liked them, I would have liked them long ago.”

Ye Jianyun pursed his lips. He knew she would say that.

The upper-class circle in Ping Cheng City was only so big.

Usually, there were only a few of them at banquets.

Moreover, the children were in the same school. It was normal to have seen them hundreds of times.

If she liked him, she would have liked him long ago.

That was true.

Ye Jianyun more or less understood what her daughter was thinking.

Only what she liked was the most outstanding.

Her question was about what Li Tingshen was like on the basis that she liked him.

She already knew his answer.

“What if the child didn’t choose you in the end?”

Ye Qingqiu frowned and silently helped Ye Jianyun upstairs.

“Then who will she choose? In the entire Ping Cheng City, no one can compare to what I was born with. I can give him everything that all women can’t, right? The entire Ye family, including me…”

Ye Jianyun sighed and shook her head. “The more you can give him, the more you can get. No amount of effort can be equally reported. Love is even more important, Qingqiu…”

Ye Qingqiu frowned and looked even more puzzled. “I’ve never thought of getting the same return. I can give him everything as long as he loves me and stays by my side.”

It was rare for the father and daughter to discuss this, so Ye Jianyun decided to expose her.

“Perhaps you won’t get any response from him even if you give him everything…”

“But Dad, I don’t understand. What is he thinking? A person can give him everything she has, including her unique and unreserved feelings for him. I satisfy his ambitions and his dignity. He can have everything he wants. A man, no, any person, doesn’t he want these things in his life?”

Ye Jianyun looked at her deeply. He couldn’t give her an answer to her question.

However, he could see her determination.

She really planned to give it to Li Tingshen.

She seemed to be right. What else did a man want in this life?

If he wanted to have a career, the Ye family could definitely promote him to the top.

Qingqiu never hid her feelings.

If he wanted a family, Qingqiu could give it to him.

He wanted dignity. The Ye family had the highest status and the beautiful face and figure of the Ye family’s princess were recognized by the entire Ping Cheng City. No matter what, he would not be wronged.

She only wanted him to stay by her side.

Moreover, it wasn’t that the child didn’t like Qingqiu.

If he really wanted to entrust Qingqiu to someone in the future, Li Tingshen was indeed…

Ye Qingqiu seemed to be waiting for Ye Jianyun’s answer. She turned to look at Ye Qingqiu’s beautiful and inquisitive eyes. Ye Jianyun smiled.

“Perhaps you’re right. As long as you’re certain… Don’t worry, Daddy will naturally support you.”

Only then did Ye Qingqiu relax.

“Thank you, Dad.”

Although Ye Jianyun had always doted on Ye Qingqiu, he knew very well that he wasn’t just doting on her.

If Ye Qingqiu liked another man today, or if he didn’t approve of her, it would be useless no matter what Ye Qingqiu said.

Ye Qingqiu came out of the shower and picked up her phone immediately.

Xu Wenxuan’s message was sent five minutes ago. The message was simple—I’m home.

Ye Qingqiu replied: [Okay, rest early.]

Then, she clicked on Li Tingshen’s profile picture and typed a message.

[Are you home yet?]

At this moment, Li Tingshen should have reached home earlier than Xu Wenxuan.

In fact, there was a traffic jam on the road. Li Tingshen had just reached home.

Just as she entered the living room, her phone rang.

Lian Lili walked out of the kitchen in her wine-colored pajamas.

Li Tingshen was looking at his phone and she saw a subtle smile on his lips.

His slender fingers tapped on the screen—

[What else can I do?]

Ye Qingqiu didn’t expect this message to be replied so quickly.

[You didn’t say anything when you reached home. You even asked me to ask you.]

Li Tingshen: [Did you tell me that I have to report to you when I get home?]

She was afraid that she had remembered wrongly.

At the thought of this, the smile on her face disappeared.

Her lips tightened.

Looking up, he saw Lian Lili standing at the kitchen door, drinking water and facing him.

“You seem to be back later than usual. Have you had dinner?”

“Yeah.”

Lian Lili nodded and said, “I heard that the little princess of the Ye family came last night?”

Li Tingshen paused before replying calmly.

“Tingshen, that little princess has been pampered since she was young. There are many people around her indulging her and spoiling her. On the contrary, Xu’er is the one you should take care of more, understand?”

Li Tingshen frowned slightly. “I don’t think any lady will lead a better life than her.”

In terms of living standards, who could compare to the young lady of the Ye family?

In fact, Ye Jianyun didn’t mistreat her.

Lian Lili placed the glass of water on the cabinet and crossed her arms in front of her. She smiled and walked to the stairs.

“I’m not comparing her to others. Anyway, she’s not living as well as that little princess.”

Li Tingshen’s eyes turned cold. “So, with my concern, Liang Xuer will be more comfortable than Ye Qingqiu?”

Lian Lili didn’t seem to notice Li Tingshen’s coldness at all. She nodded calmly and said, “Right?”

Then, she turned around and went upstairs, leaving behind an inexplicable sentence. “That child’s life seems to be too smooth-sailing.”

It was so smooth that it was an eyesore.

Li Tingshen narrowed his eyes.

“Do you really want me to take care of Liang Xuer, or do you want me to vent your anger on you?”

Lian Lili stopped in her tracks.

Li Tingshen watched coldly as she turned around slowly and stood on the stairs to look at him.

“There’s no conflict between the two, or… both.”

After saying that, the smile on his face disappeared.

“I know you’re rational and clear-headed, but… do you not want to take care of Xu’er or can’t bear to see that little princess suffer?”

“No one needs my care.”

Li Tingshen finished speaking coldly and strode up the stairs.

She brushed past Lian Lili.

“Tingshen, don’t make me angry.”

Li Tingshen’s slender figure suddenly paused before disappearing around the corner.

Lian Lili stood rooted to the ground for a while before slowly going upstairs to the bedroom.

—

After the exam ended, they took a break.

The results would be announced online.

Ye Qingqiu felt relaxed.

She was obviously confident in her results.

Liang Xuer was very nervous and didn’t even look for Li Tingshen to tutor her.

The results this time involved Li Tingshen.

If she didn’t do well, she wouldn’t have the face to meet Li Tingshen.

Three days later, the results were announced.

Liang Xuer did not pass the exam, but there were a few uncertain questions that Li Tingshen had mentioned.

She was still wrong. She felt a little guilty when she saw Li Tingshen.

Ye Qingqiu had indeed done well this time. Although she wasn’t in the same grade as Liang Xuer, her total score was higher than hers.

However, in Ye Jianyun’s eyes, the two of them had done well. Before dinner that night, he happily said that he would reward them and let them choose a place to travel.

Ye Qingqiu scored a few more marks than her, causing Liang Xuer to feel indignant.

She rejected him immediately. “I’m not going. I’m going to be in my third year of high school. I still have tuition.”

Ye Jianyun was certain that the children would be happy, but the smile on her face stiffened.

Ye Qingqiu hated Liang Xuer to death.

Every time, she had the ability to successfully disgust others.

“Liang Xuer, you’ve gone through seven years of compulsory education. Do you know how to be shameless?”

Ye Qingqiu had never concealed her hatred for Liang Xuer. She was too lazy to be angry, but she couldn’t tolerate her making Ye Jianyun unhappy.

Liang Xuer was used to Ye Qingqiu’s harsh words. She didn’t say anything and stood up to go upstairs.

“I’m not hungry. When I’m hungry, I’ll go downstairs to find something to eat.”

Her superior and arrogant attitude almost made Ye Qingqiu pull her hair.

Ye Jianyun called out to her softly and shook his head.

Ye Qingqiu rubbed her forehead and said, “I have to live ten years less if I live with her!”

“Stop spouting nonsense!” Ye Jianyun glared at her unhappily.

Ye Qingqiu pouted and picked up the pillow beside her. She hugged it and didn’t speak for a long time.

Ye Jianyun sat opposite her and looked at her for a long time before taking a deep breath.

“You’re actually more concerned about Tingshen tutoring her, right?”

His biological father.

Li Tingshen clenched his fists in his pocket and said coldly, “What else do you think?”

Ye Qingqiu raised an eyebrow and said, “Last night, everyone in the Ye family probably knew that I would bring someone to my house for tutoring tonight… That Liang Xuer, who has always been arrogant, would never approach my room. Why did she suddenly appear in my room with you today?”

Li Tingshen’s pupils constricted.

“I don’t know what Liang Xuer told you to make you agree to come to my house tonight. I’m glad that you’re here. But I haven’t settled some scores with her.”

“As for tonight’s dinner… If she dares to pick out anyone who isn’t my father, I’ll smash her mouth. My father wronged me not because he wanted her to go against me and give him a hard time. I’ve told her eight hundred times to stay away from you, but not only did she not listen, she even openly asked you to tutor her. She even brought you home and flaunted your relationship in front of me…”

“Do you think I should be indifferent or teach her a lesson?”

“…”

Ye Qingqiu paused for a while and looked up with a lazy and soft smile on her face. “I was very angry back then and couldn’t remain indifferent. I really hope that if I were to be with a boy who was interested in me one day, you would be like me and want to tear him into pieces.”

Li Tingshen’s eyes finally moved slightly. He lowered his gaze and looked at her quietly.

The hand that had not relaxed in his pocket tightened, and his lips tightened.

But… being torn into pieces?

“So you should be glad that I didn’t choose to be indifferent. If I’m indifferent one day, Li Tingshen, you’ll lose more than just my attitude towards you.”
