Chapter 178 - 178: 176: The Nightmare Strikes, Harbor of the Mind (3)

As she spoke, she casually pushed open the half-closed door of the study and strode in.

Bang!

She never expected that the opened door would bounce back on its own, and at twice the speed as it suddenly sprung back!

Instinctively, she raised a book to block it, but the door slammed heavily against the book, hitting her chest and almost causing her to burst into tears.

What kind of broken door is this, bouncing back automatically!

“Miss Gan, you haven’t answered my question yet.” As soon as Liu Sisi regained her composure, she asked again, not forgetting the main point.

“What progress? I don’t understand, Teacher.”

Miss Gan blinked her eyes, looking unbelievably innocent and adorable.

“What books did your previous tutors teach you? What characters do you recognize?” Liu Sisi asked, instinctively walking towards the location of the desk.

However, as soon as she stepped onto the wooden floor above the stage, it suddenly sank and she fell forward, kneeling on the ground.

“Umm….”

Both her knees hit the ground directly, causing Liu Sisi to instinctively let out a soft hum. It hurts! It really hurts!

From the corner of her eye, she saw the triumphant smile on Gan Miaoruo’s face!

But in the next instant, it seemed as though she noticed Liu Sisi’s gaze and the smile on her face disappeared.

Liu Sisi realized that her fall was most likely related to her little friend Gan Miaoruo!

Gritting her teeth, she got up from the ground, brushed off her hands, and continued to ask in a composed manner. Still, her eyes were scanning the surroundings, hoping to find the location of the next trap.

“Miss Gan, please answer my previous question.”

“What characters? What books? None of the teachers before taught me those things. Why don’t you teach Ruo Ruo instead, Teacher?”

Gan Miaoruo blinked her big clever eyes, a sly radiance flashing in their depths, looking completely innocent.

If it weren’t for the pain in her knees reminding Liu Sisi, she might have thought that the cute girl in front of her was truly innocent and that she was just overthinking.

Liu Sisi said nothing, stretched her neck to look at the book on the desk. She noticed that there was something suspicious about the corner of the book, and then there was the drawer, the stool…

She then sighed in amazement.

“Was this book brought here by mistake by the servants? It seems to have itching powder or something inside. What’s in this teacup? Fake blood made from tomato juice? And there is either a mouse or a snake in this desk, or maybe a whole cabinet full of cockroaches? Will this stool also have a trap? What do you think, Miss Gan?”

The smile on Gan Miaoruo’s face disappeared, and she stammered with her eyes wide open and mouth agape.

“How…how did you…know?”

“Very simple! Because I played like this when I was a kid too.”

Of course, Liu Sisi wouldn’t tell her that this is how it’s shown on TV, right?

She looked around amusedly, carefully surveying the beams above her head. Sure enough, she saw a wobbly water bucket and couldn’t help but shake her head.

“Miss Gan, are you sure you want to play with me…these things? If I retaliate, I don’t know if you’ll be upset.”

“Ugly monster, you dare!”

Gan Miaoruo pouted and stood up from her seat in an instant.

“Don’t think that just because you’ve figured it out, I’ll let you go! You, this ugly woman, even dream of becoming my, Gan Miaoruo’s teacher! Hmph!”

One moment she had such a sweet and lovely face, but in the next moment, after she saw through the truth, the teacher turned into an ugly monster.

What a sharp-tongued little chili!

Liu Sisi still slowed down her pace, trying to be gentle and persuasive.

“Actually, Miss Gan, don’t you think it’s a win-win situation for you to follow me in studying?”

“What win-win situation? I, the Miss, am telling you this ugly monster! Don’t try to fool me with the so-called ‘Three Obediences and Four Virtues’ of women. I won’t buy it.”

Three obediences and four virtues? If I don’t understand those myself, how am I supposed to teach you?

Liu Sisi touched her still hurting knees.

“No, no, no…you misunderstood.”

Liu Sisi shook her finger: “First, I heard that you’ve driven away many teachers. I think you must not like that teachers’ lectures are annoying and dry, and they keep nagging for quite a while, right?”

“So what if it’s true, and so what if it’s not? Ugly monster, you don’t really think that I can’t find a teacher, do you?”

The cute Gan Miaoruo blinked her cunning eyes.

“How about this! I can continue to be your teacher. If you think the lectures are boring, you can learn whatever you want, do whatever you want, how about that?”

“What are you trying to say?” Gan Miaoruo was very impatient.

“What I’m trying to say is very simple. You need a teacher who can cover for you, a teacher who won’t restrict you no matter what you do, don’t you? And I need the money. We can cooperate and get what we both want. You should see that my family is poor, and I have two children to raise at home, so I don’t want to lose this job.”

Gan Miaoruo’s eyes suddenly lit up!

“I don’t have to attend class?”

“That won’t work. Do you think your grandmother would believe that you’re studying if you don’t even attend class?” Liu Sisi denied.

Gan Miaoruo’s expression darkened, and then she pursed her lips, showing a face full of contempt.

“What do you mean? There’s no benefit to me cooperating with you, I won’t do it! Ugly monster, you better not lie to me!”

Liu Sisi smiled mysteriously: “Of course… as long as you study seriously with me, I will help you pursue your Brother Nan, how about that?”

Gan Miaoruo’s eyes lit up, and she immediately jumped up from her seat.

“Ugly monster, what are you talking about? You better clarify it quickly, otherwise, I don’t mind changing to another female tutor!”

“You should know that I call your Brother Nan my brother mainly because I work in his bookstore every day. I know what he likes and dislikes. What he likes about girls and what he hates. You could have thousands of female tutors. But there’s only one Brother Nan, and there’s only one me working in his bookstore.”

Liu Sisi smiled confidently.

You little thing!

Now that I know your weakness, I’m not afraid that you won’t obediently crawl into my pocket!

Suspicion, reluctance, entanglement, severity…

Her young face kept changing expressions, and with a stubborn look, she finally walked to her side, raised her head, and looked at her seriously.

“Is what you just said true? As long as I study hard, you’ll help me pursue Brother Nan?”

“Wrong! It’s not me helping you pursue your Brother Nan.”

Liu Sisi rolled her eyes and shook her head in exasperation.
