The Struggles of Being A Mother of Villains - Chapter 122
Ch.122 I’m Praising Her (3)
“Thank you, I’m fine. I just…” The girl was really mad. “I just can’t forgive Xie Haiyun telling my mother that her mother lost in the piano competition right before she died, telling her that the judges said I had no talent. I… I can’t just accept my mother passing away with such rage inside of her.”
Xiao Yu held her phone and listened to them cry, quietly. She looked ahead and after a while, she said, “Okay. I’ll come and teach you once a week. $180 per hour. Is that fine?”
They seemed to be really surprised. Immediately nodding, they said, “Yes, it’s fine.”
Xiao Yu had her send the address over and said, “I can come tomorrow and teach you. We can both see if we think we’re suitable for each other. If we are, we can continue. You don’t have to pay me for tomorrow’s class just yet. If you think I’m not suitable, this class will be free. If you think I’m good, we can continue next week and you can pay me the money for both weeks. Do you have any problems?”
“No, that’s too great.” The girl said.
Xiao Yu hung up as Ji Xuan looked back and asked, “You got a new student?”
She smiled and pointed at her phone. “Not sure yet.”
“I’ll have the driver bring you over tomorrow?” Ji Xuan said.
Xiao Yu nodded. “Thank you.”
The second day, Xiao Yu got to see Fei Yutong.
Xu Haotian dropped Xiao Yu off in the neighborhood. “Madam, when you’re about to leave, call me. I don’t have class today so I’ll wait at the cafe ahead for you.”
Xiao Yu smiled. “Okay.”
“Are you…Teacher Xiao?” A gentle female voice rang.
Xiao Yu turned to see a girl standing in the neighborhood. She had noticed her before getting out of the car. She wore a loose brown striped long-sleeves knitted garment coupled with loose black long pants. She looked really casual.
Xiao Yu nodded. The girl had short hair, sharp chin, and big eyes. She looked like the girl you’d see in your neighborhood. She had a sweet appearance.
“Madam, I’ll be back after parking the car.” Xu Haotian stuck his head out of the window and exclaimed.
“C-come back?” Xiao Yu froze, not understanding.
“He is?” Fei Yutong asked.
“My driver.” Xiao Yu furrowed her brows, wanting to know what Xu Haotian meant.
But since he said this, Xiao Yu and Fei Yutong stood by the road, waiting. The two chatted casually. Xiao Yu even said that both of their names had the word “Yu” in it.
While they were chatting, Xu Haotian walked over with lots of food. “Madam, I bought some food for you guys. I’ll bring it over.”
“You’re coming too?” Xiao Yu asked.
Xu Haotian said in seriousness, “Madam, what are you talking about? Of course I’m going up. I’ll wait by the side and I won’t disturb you!”
Xiao Yu was confused. She looked at Xu Haotian and then Fei Yutong. “Oh. If that’s the case, you can go up with me. Um, Yutong, are you fine with that?”
Why would Fei Yutong reject this? She nodded and said, “Of course. I’ll lead you guys. This way.”
Therefore, the two followed along. Xiao Yu stood by Xu Haotian’s side and said, “Boy, you’re interested in her?”
“Madam, I’m a proper person. I’m just interested in her.”
“Her mother just passed away. Don’t mess around.” Xiao Yu reminded. Fei Yutong was wearing dark-colored clothes. It seemed like she was still observing mourning.
Xu Haotian said, feeling bad, “She’s so weak, pitiful, and helpless like a slowly blooming white lotus…”
Xiao Yu asked, “Are you complimenting or insulting her?”
Xu Haotian looked strangely at her. “Isn’t it really obvious? I’m praising her.”
Xiao Yu nodded. “Whatever. As long as you don’t mess around. She’s still mourning.”
“I will protect her.” Xiao Haotian looked at the figure ahead and said in a determined tone.
“This damned love at first sight.” Xiao Yu ridiculed.
Xiao Haotian laughed foolishing. Xiao Yu also laughed at seeing him like this. “At least it’s pretty nice he likes someone in this life.” Don’t be like him in his past life, living alone to his death.
