When the college entrance exam entered its final 30-day countdown, students could choose not to go to school and instead study independently at home.
However, in such cases, academic pressure often only increased.
Because his family was quite well-off, Xu Huo used to attend tutoring classes, but the courses weren’t particularly difficult back then, so the tutoring effect was only mediocre.
Now, there’s no need for it.
Are you kidding?
With Ran Ran around, does he need anyone else’s help with tutoring?
Putting everything else aside, just having Ran Ran sitting nearby made him feel incredibly relieved.
Who isn’t a fan of good looks, after all?
Jiang Ran, on the other hand, became oddly “excited.”
As soon as Xu Huo finished eating and lay down, she couldn’t wait to go to the bedroom and bring out her brother’s study materials.
She asked, “Brother, where should we have class? The dining table? The coffee table? Or your room?”
Xu Huo was quick; he immediately switched screens.
“What are you doing?”
Jiang Ran curiously peeked at his phone screen.
“Just scrolling through Weibo. ‘I Am a Singer’ has a preview today.”
Jiang Ran didn’t believe it.
She saw him switch screens.
If it was just a preview, why would he need to switch screens?
It was probably some suggestive pictures in a QQ group.
Those netizens were always like that; no matter what kind of group, it would eventually turn into a suggestive picture group.
It was almost ingrained in their genes.
No matter what they talked about, a picture would suddenly pop up.
But she wasn’t too curious, afraid that if he switched back, she might see something that would make her blush.
Boys liked to look at those things.
Although Jiang Ran had no proof, she was sure that even her brother had embarrassing things on his phone.
She was different; at most, she would jump from a browser and then see some blood-boiling advertisements.
This level was already quite shocking to her.
When the webpage warned of risks, she would quickly close it in fright.
As for secretly saving, quietly learning, and then surprisingly making a splash at a specific time, she would absolutely never admit to it.
But she still wanted to ask…
“Aren’t you not planning to help her?”
“I’ll see how it goes. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll still have to help. I didn’t expect to owe Grandma Qin a favor.”
“We’ll talk about that later. Right now, the college entrance exam is the most important thing in the world~~”
Jiang Ran walked over, pointed to the side of the coffee table, and said proudly, “Little Huo, sit here.”
Listening to her slightly smug tone, Xu Huo retorted, “Don’t get too carried away!”
“How dare you talk to your teacher like that?”
Jiang Ran rolled up the test paper in her hand and gently tapped him on the head.
“Jiang Ran!”
“Call me Teacher Jiang…”
“Get lost!”
“Oh, just call me that once, please? For all the effort I’m putting into tutoring you, just satisfy my request, okay~?”
“What kind of weird request?”
“Brother~~ Please, please, just once.”
Xu Huo frowned, “Do you have some special fetish?”
Jiang Ran retorted logically, “Don’t you boys also like girls to call you ‘Daddy’?”
“Where did you hear that?”
“Oh! Don’t worry about where I heard it, just say it once~ Just once~~”
Jiang Ran vigorously shook Xu Huo’s arm.
Xu Huo couldn’t resist.
He looked at her and honestly called her “Teacher Jiang.”
Jiang Ran then contentedly curled the corners of her mouth, and her eyes, with their soft arches, lit up, her expression becoming quite subtle.
Xu Huo took a deep breath, suppressed the shame in his heart, and asked, “So, can we start now?”
“Let’s begin, but I’ll make it clear beforehand: if you don’t perform well, the cane will be waiting!”
***
Jiang Ran deliberately waved the back scratcher in her hand, making a sharp whooshing sound—
Don’t ask, it’s all about ritual.
It’s a pity it wasn’t a proper pointer, or one of those small leather whips like a horse’s tail.
Otherwise, hitting her brother with it and hearing his wails, just thinking about it made her feel wonderful.
Xu Huo was unaware of Jiang Ran’s “perverted psychology” and asked, “What should we study first?”
“That depends on your weaknesses. Anyway, your little sister is all-powerful.”
“Let me find it.”
Xu Huo rummaged through his textbooks.
Taking advantage of the free time, Jiang Ran actually pulled out a pair of black-rimmed glasses from her pocket.
After putting them on, her entire demeanor changed.
Although her features remained gentle and charming, there was now an added hint of sternness.
Xu Huo’s eye twitched, “…You have quite a complete set of props?”
“Of course.”
Since she was going to be a tutor, she naturally couldn’t treat it like child’s play.
Now that her brother had put his future in her hands, she had to help him seize it well.
“Let’s start with math…”
“I thought so too.”
Jiang Ran pulled out a test paper, “Then let’s take it little by little. You do these multiple-choice questions first.”
Sunlight streamed through the window into the room…
Xu Huo patiently worked on the questions.
Jiang Ran leaned sideways, resting her arm on the table, her right hand propping up her chin, unable to resist peering closely at her brother’s face for a while.
And her brother always caught her, raising a hand to tap her forehead a few times, making her pout with injustice and dissatisfaction.
“Here.”
Xu Huo confidently finished the multiple-choice questions, picked up his water glass, and took a sip.
“Aren’t you going to check it again?”
“Hm?”
Xu Huo turned his head to look, meeting Jiang Ran’s serious gaze.
Her arms were crossed, her left hand gently tapping her right arm, and her right hand held the back scratcher, eager to strike.
Xu Huo swallowed the water in his mouth, “I’ve checked it…”
Jiang Ran sneered repeatedly, “Then congratulations… you’re wrong.”
“Where’s it wrong?”
Jiang Ran wielded the back scratcher, pointing to the test paper, and then his scratch paper, “You used the wrong formula here.”
Xu Huo took it and looked carefully, realizing she was right.
Alright, Xu Huo was convinced.
He had been calculating for ages, and his sister knew the answer with just one glance.
Is this the power of guaranteed admission?
Truly impressive.
“Then I’ll do the fill-in-the-blanks.”
“Dream on, hand over!”
Xu Huo frowned, “Jiang Ran, don’t push your luck…”
“Xu Huo! How dare you talk to your teacher like that?”
Jiang Ran flexed her wrist, looking like she was about to beat him to death.
Xu Huo felt a little uncertain, wondering if this seemingly gentle sister had some unknown strange?
“…Are you serious?”
“Otherwise?”
Jiang Ran forcibly grabbed his hand and flattened his palm.
When her fingers touched his, a tingling sensation also ran through her fingertips.
Putting everything else aside, Xu Huo’s hands were genuinely beautiful, with long fingers and distinct knuckles.
If her body were stroked by such hands, from her cheek all the way down to her toes…
“Are you going to hit me or not?”
Xu Huo couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
If his sister wanted to play, as her brother, he’d play along.
But what was the deal with holding his palm and giggling foolishly?
“Do you know what foreplay is? Rubbing it warm makes it hurt more when I hit you!”
“AHHH!!!”
It didn’t hurt at all, but Xu Huo still cooperatively reacted with intense pain.
Jiang Ran was very satisfied, her small face slightly flushed with excitement.
No wonder her brother loved bullying her so much; it really was thrilling!
“Hmph hmph! I’ll hit you every time you make a mistake! Let’s see if you learn your lesson…”
After saying that, Jiang Ran crossed her arms and returned to her strict demeanor.
But at the same time, she fell into thought: she was pondering how to help her brother make rapid progress.
Parents who only rely on brute force are bound to fail.
A carrot and a stick is the way to go.
Perhaps, she should use a woman’s charm?
Jiang Ran looked down at her young, tender body, then let out a series of strange giggles…
Xu Huo politely maintained a safe distance from her.
This sister of his, she’s got something wrong with her head!
