Jian Zhou had also heard from Lin Shen that this tutor had top-notch titles in all aspects. If the Ji family wanted to hire a tutor, they would definitely hire the best. Jian Zhou was not surprised at all.

He glanced at Shang Li, then lowered his eyes and spread out the book.

Shang Li was only one year older than Jian Zhou, but the boy in front of him was too thin and thin, like a fresh willow branch that had just sprouted buds and could not be easily broken.

"Hello, I'm Shang Li."

"Jian Zhou."

The young man did not raise his head, his temperament was much colder than his gentle appearance.

Although Shang Li was curious about him, he had no intention of exploring his identity in the Ji family. That was not something he should be concerned about.

During the tutoring process, Shang Li discovered that this young master Jian Zhou studied very seriously, but for some reason, his foundation was a little weak. He was not stupid, but he was not a particularly smart student either. His situation looked more like I couldn't study with peace of mind for a long time, so my course progress dropped a lot.

Shang Li almost thought of this and asked Jian Zhou, "Have you ever missed a course before?"

The young man froze for a moment and nodded: "I fell behind once, but I later taught myself."

It turned out to be the case.

Shang Li had to temporarily adjust his pre-prepared teaching plan based on Jian Zhou's situation.

...

Lin Shen is preparing clothes for Ji Yan and Jian Zhou to attend the Jian family banquet tonight.

Because it was a family dinner, it didn't need to be too formal, but it couldn't be too casual, but Ji Yan didn't need to worry about these things. Lin Shen was almost omnipotent and could handle everything beautifully.

Aunt Jiang, the nurse, opened the door and came in, bringing Ji Yan a cup of hot milk as usual.

The milk was placed in her hand. Ji Yan glanced at it and said to Aunt Jiang: "Send a cup to Jian Zhou, and by the way, make a cup of black tea for Teacher Shang Li that Uncle Lu sent a few days ago."

Aunt Jiang kept her head lowered, not daring to look at the eldest lady.

After the girl finished speaking, she nodded in agreement: "Okay, miss."

Almost as soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Jiang heard the gentle voice of the daughter-in-law again: "Thank you for your hard work."

This was the first time Jiang Yurong heard the young lady speak in such a gentle tone.

She couldn't help but feel a little dazed, and walked out of the young lady's room almost dizzy.

When going to make tea for the guests, Jiang Yurong met the gentleman and elegant butler again, Mr. Lin.

Mr. Lin was also in the young lady's room just now. As if he noticed her gaze, Mr. Lin walked towards her and said in a gentle and elegant voice: "The young lady has changed a lot recently. You have noticed it too, haven't you?"

Jiang Yurong was extremely nervous. Even if someone like Mr. Lin talked to her, she would not dare to comment easily on the young lady in the villa.

This job is hard-won. Jiang Yurong cherishes this rare opportunity and does not want to mess it up.

The smile on Lin Shen's lips was gentle.

The nurse chosen by the young lady was indeed a little timid, but he knew the rules very well. He couldn't help but say a few more words, "The young lady has grown up now and is very decent in all aspects. Aunt Jiang doesn't have to be so afraid of her."

Jiang Yurong nodded and continued to concentrate on brewing the tea in her hand.

She didn't expect the young lady to have a good attitude toward her. As far as she was concerned, as long as the young lady didn't fire her or drive them away, anything would be fine.

After making the tea, Jiang Yurong delivered the brewed tea and the prepared hot milk to Master Jian Zhou's room.

She knocked on the door, and it was the elegant and good-looking tutor who came to open the door.

Jiang Yurong smiled and said: "Teacher Shang Li, this is the black tea that the young lady asked me to make for you. Also, this glass of milk is for Master Jian Zhou."

Shang Li lowered his eyes, then nodded politely and said, "Thank you for your hard work. I'll just carry it in."

Jiang Yurong paused and then said: "Then I'll trouble you."

Jian Zhou was doing a question. When Shang Li handed the milk to him, he paused and heard him say, "Miss Ji had someone bring it to you."

Jian Zhou was silent, his eyes swept over the glass of milk coldly, with no intention of touching it.

Shang Li also discovered something strange about Jian Zhou. This young man had a cold personality and had no excessive emotions. His emotions would fluctuate only when he heard about the daughter.

This kind of fluctuation is not a positive emotional fluctuation. Jian Zhou doesn't simply dislike the daughter, it can even be called disgusting.

This just made Shang Li feel strange. He had also met the daughter. Her temperament made people very comfortable, her conversation and manners were very decent, and her accomplishments displayed in all aspects were hard to dislike.

Just because he had seen it with his own eyes, he felt that Jian Zhou's attitude was abnormal.

He picked up the cup of black tea prepared for him. The black tea was in good quality, the aroma was refreshing, and the taste was better than the black tea he had drunk before. Even if Shang Li didn't understand tea, he knew it was a good tea.

Shang Li couldn't help but say something nice for the daughter in front of Jian Zhou: "Miss Ji is a very nice person. I think there should be some misunderstanding between you and her."

His words made Jian Zhou's hand holding the pen slowly tighten, and his joints began to turn white.

The young man lowered his eyes silently: "There is no misunderstanding."

Shang Li didn't know Ji Yan, but Jian Zhou knew exactly what kind of person she was.

What Shang Li saw was more like her disguise, but she could pretend for a while, but she couldn't pretend for a lifetime.

Jian Zhou's attitude still surprised Shang Li. His relationship with the daughter seemed to be particularly bad.

But the contradiction is that even in such a bad relationship, Miss Ji is still very kind to Jian Zhou.

Shang Li shook his head, he still believed in his own judgment more.

After the tutoring, Shang Li took the mock papers that Jian Zhou had completed and corrected today to see Ji Yan.

The girl sat in a wheelchair, unfolded the paper with her delicate white fingers, and carefully read the paper Jian Zhou had made from beginning to end.

"Master Jian Zhou has a relatively weak foundation because he missed the course. His grades were not satisfactory when he took the mock papers on the first day. However, he has made rapid progress. It should not be a problem to enter the No. [-] Middle School in seven days."

"Yes." Ji Yan nodded, closed the paper, and raised her eyes to look at the other party, "Teacher Shang Li, thank you for your trouble."

"No trouble, this is what I should do."

Lin Shen got up in time to deliver business gifts and left. When he came back, he had the clothes for the banquet delivered to Jian Zhou's room.

Jian Zhou looked at the brand new clothes and frowned slightly.

The servant said: "Master Jian Zhou, these are the clothes you will wear to accompany the eldest lady to Jian's house for dinner tonight. You'd better change into them, otherwise the lady will be unhappy."

Jian Zhou still didn't touch the clothes.

"Please tell her that I will not accompany her back to Jane's house."

The servant looked embarrassed when he heard this: "Master Jian Zhou, you..."

When the original words reached Ji Yan's ears, the girl raised her hand and rubbed her forehead.

"If he doesn't want to change, then he won't change, but I hope he can accompany me back to Jian's house."

Ji Yan knew that the servant could not persuade Jian Zhou, and Jian Zhou did not want to see her, so she had no choice but to trouble Lin Shen to make a trip.
