Chapter 14: Chapter 14: Have her be Qiao Yun’s tutor?
Editor: Inschain

He suddenly remembered something and asked again, “Didn’t mom and dad say anything?”

Lu Ting said helplessly, “It’s because my sister doesn’t want to go out… My sister probably didn’t have much exposure to computers in the countryside, and now she’s curious about everything. It’s very normal for her willpower to be weak.”

Hearing this, Lu Jingzhi’s face grew even darker, and his brows furrowed deeply.

She’s just curious about computers now, but what if she becomes curious about all sorts of messy things in the future?

If a single game can get her so addicted, if we don’t manage it now, will she end up skipping school, fighting, and repeating grades?

After thinking a moment, Lu Jingzhi made a request to Lu Ting, “I have a favor to ask of you. There’s only a little over twenty days left before school starts, and I’d like you to tutor Qiaoqiao.”

“Although I’m not very clear about Qiaoqiao’s academic performance, I’m sure it’s not as good as yours. If you teach her, I’ll feel more at ease.”

Lu Ting forced a smile, feeling annoyed at Lu Jingzhi’s concern for Qiao Yun. She suppressed her emotions and nodded in agreement, “No problem, but what about my sister?”

“I will talk to her about it,” Lu Jingzhi said as he headed upstairs.

Watching Lu Jingzhi ascend the stairs, the smile on Lu Ting’s face completely disappeared.

She was to be Qiao Yun’s tutor?

If Qiao Yun doesn’t learn what she teaches, there will be a joke to watch.

…

Qiao Yun watched the data processing with focused attention, a faint smile in her eyes. It was only at times like this that she felt the most at ease and the happiest.

No one to disturb her.

No need to learn how to interact with others.

At that point, there was a knock on the door.

The displeasure of being interrupted flashed in Qiao Yun’s eyes. She pushed her chair back, stood up, and pulled open the door.

It was Lu Jingzhi.

Qiao Yun was a bit surprised. She had been back for many days but had only seen Lu Jingzhi twice.

However, she could still feel that this older brother had some preconceived prejudices against her, but Qiao Yun didn’t care.

Qiao Yun lifted her face, silently looking at him.

Lu Jingzhi stared at her palm-sized beautiful face. His lips subconsciously wanted to curl into a smile, but he quickly suppressed it and said seriously, “Can we talk?”

Qiao Yun didn’t move.

“…”

Lu Jingzhi looked at the girl who protected her territory like a little cat, abandoning the thought of entering the room for a chat. In a gentler tone, he said, “Have you been playing on the computer in your room all the time?”

Qiao Yun lifted her eyelids to glance at him and spat out a few words, “I’m not playing.”

Her tone was so calm that it seemed she didn’t consider it a big deal. Lu Jingzhi suppressed the rising thought in his heart, wondering if Qiao Yun’s obedience was all an act? Was she actually very rebellious at heart?

“Alright, let’s say you are not playing, but little sister…”

Lu Jingzhi took Qiao Yun’s excuse for face-saving, choosing his words carefully and spoke unhurriedly, “Having grown up in the countryside, your exposure to people and events has been relatively simple, and you haven’t seen much of the world. It’s normal for you to be attracted to new things when you arrive in a big city, but don’t become too addicted. Your main focus now should be on your studies.”

Qiao Yun moved her head slightly and blinked slowly, only then realizing what Lu Jingzhi had misunderstood. She opened her mouth, about to say something, when she heard Lu Jingzhi continue.

“It’s understandable that you want to make a good impression on us by saying you want to attend Shengyang High School. But even if you can’t achieve it, I still hope you will take this seriously and try your best, rather than just going through the motions.”
