Class Teacher System

Chapter 45: Against heaven and earth (4)

Ren Zhu really couldn’t understand. Why did that person keep spontaneously giving him money? Although money is certainly a good thing, but just then he didn’t do anything except throw his temper at that person. Ah? He could also get money from doing that? Hence, Teacher Ren made a final conclusion about the young master Qin outside. That person was just a handsome fool with too much money.

After Teacher Ren finished washing up and came out, he was actually a little surprised when he saw a paper bag on the table. Through the steam emitted from that paper bag, he could guess that this should be the breakfast prepared for him. Ren Zhu felt that such a considerate and intelligent action was certainly not something Qin Cong would do. It was probably his assistant or chauffeur who thought of this.

.

As a result, this person couldn’t wait to assert his own presence: “Hurry up. Come here and eat your breakfast. Then, I’ll see how you’re going to tutor my brother. If you don’t have any real skills, you’ll have to refund me the tuition fee I just gave you.”

Ren Zhu rolled his eyes and then finished eating the crab meat buns that were in the bag. The flavour was actually pretty good. Just when he wanted to ask where they bought this from, sitting beside him with his chin propped up, Qin Cong opened his mouth and said: “It’s delicious right? Just from looking at your expression, I can tell that you think it’s very delicious. I bought this from Old Cui’s family bun shop. This is the most expensive, but also the most affordable crab meat bun. They’re only 10 yuan each, isn’t it very cheap? Next time, you can also go buy them yourself.”

Ren Zhu felt that it was fortunate he had already eaten those four buns. Otherwise, for a 10 yuan bun that was less than half a palm in size, his heart would probably be pained to death. Even if his bank savings were currently sitting at 7 figures, and he had a car and a house, if he ate this 10 yuan bun every day, he would also slowly become poor.

Thus, he did not take Qin Cong’s suggestion to heart and directly turned his head towards Qin Shu: “Have you finished preparing? If you’re ready, then let’s go to my study to start the lesson.”

It was also the first time Qin Shu had come to a teacher’s house for lessons. His family had many teachers specialising in different fields, but going over to a teacher’s house, he was still a little nervous. Consequently, he looked over at his older brother. By his side, Qin Cong directly nodded his head: “He’s ready. We’ll go together.”

Ren Zhu really wanted to say, what does this have to do with you? But thinking that this child’s family must have invited a lot of specialised tutors, he still agreed in the end. As for Qin Cong saying that he would see whether he was qualified, Teacher Ren didn’t even bother to think about it. He has lived for more than a hundred years. Even if it’s looking at pornographic books, he has definitely read who knows how many more than these people. What’s more, he liked Chinese and miscellaneous studies the most. Having studied the things he liked for several lifetimes, if he was still worse than others, then he should just go die.

Although each world was different to some extent, their roads converged into one. All the cultures and mentalities were similar.

Hence, in the next 3 hours, the brothers were stunned as they listened to this refined and elegant young man reference and quickly explain the articles in Qin Shu’s textbook. From time to time, he would also tell a few short stories as examples to let Qin Shu better understand the ideas and meaning the articles wanted to convey.

Qin Shu felt that all his questions became clear and interesting when the teacher explained them. He started to have a strong interest in learning about literature! As for Qin Cong, he foolishly stared at the man who suddenly seemed bright and dazzling the moment he started teaching, unable to remove his eyes from his every movement. He felt like his heart had contracted an illness, excitedly jumping nonstop. He even considered that he could continue to watch Ren Zhu forever, watching until he grew old.

The thoughts of the two engrossed brothers were smashed by the sound of the assistant knocking on the door. When assistant Xiao Zhu tentatively pushed the door open to ask them if they wanted to eat lunch since it was now already 11:40, only then did Qin Shu exclaim: “Ah. It’s already lunch time?”

Qin Cong also seemed to have woken up from a dream. However, his expression was particularly dark as he turned his head and looked at his little assistant who was trembling with fear. With a cold laugh, he said: “You know it’s time and yet you’re still not ordering take out? Do you want to make me call or something?”

Assistant Xiao Zhu immediately had goosebumps all over his body: “I just wanted to ask for Teacher Ren’s preference!” After saying this, sure enough, he felt that his young master’s complexion became a lot better. In his heart, he silently wiped his sweat. Fortunately he was quick-witted, otherwise he would probably need to be thrown into the sea again.

Ren Zhu thought for a moment and said to Qin Shu: “Let’s eat something good for lunch. You don’t need to come back in the afternoon. Just do a set of mock exam papers. Tomorrow afternoon, come find me again after you eat dinner. Your foundations are very good, there’s just some small areas you don’t quite understand. After tomorrow’s lesson, there shouldn’t be any problem.”

At this moment, the young Qin Shu had absolute confidence in this teacher who could make him forget about time. He felt that none of the tutors in his family could explain things as well as Teacher Ren. Not only could he clearly understand the explanations, but he also found them to be extremely interesting. “Then, can I get first place in the exam?”

Ren Zhu smiled, reaching out and rubbing the little guy’s head: “Rest assured. The students I teach should get first place no matter what.”

Qin Shu then foolishly laughed.

By the side, Qin Cong watched his brother interacting with Ren Zhu and suddenly felt a little displeased, wishing to quickly force himself in and say something. Consequently, young master Qin really did do just that, squeezing himself between Ren Zhu and Qin Shu. Under these two people’s frowns and disdainful gazes, he said: “That, it’s also very exhausting for Teacher Ren to help tutor Qin Shu. It’s now too late to cook, so I’ll invite Teacher Ren to lunch. How about braised pork ribs, mala stir-fry pot and sweet and sour fish?”

When Ren Zhu heard these three dishes, his brows slightly raised. For the first time, he carefully looked at this young man who, besides having money, was a complete fool. At this moment, the young man was looking at him. Ren Zhu unexpectedly discovered that this person’s expression actually had a trace of nervousness.

This foolish person with too much money could actually be nervous? What happened to his previous ‘against heaven and earth’ appearance? Thinking like this, he suddenly laughed. That laugh immediately caused Qin Cong’s heart to wildly jump. “You, you, what are you laughing at?! I, I, I invited you for a meal. You’re still not satisfied?”

Ren Zhu smiled and shook his head: “That’s not true. I feel extremely honoured ah, young master. Also, add in a crystal peach blossom cake. Who knows, does the place you’re inviting me to have this dish?”

Qin Cong’s jaw immediately dropped. By his side, Qin Shu looked at Ren Zhu in astonishment and then said with pride: “Teacher Ren, how did you know that my brother is going to take you to Sizhu Hall? Crystal peach blossom cake is Sizhu Hall’s specialty dish. There’s only a limited amount of 100 portions a day. But even so, they are always in short supply. Teacher, Teacher, did you know? This crystal peach blossom cake was actually invented by my brother! Father said that brother should actually be a chef; it must have been sheer luck that he could grow his business to what it is today.”

Then, Qin Shu was ruthlessly smacked in the back of his head. Young master Qin flew into a rage. “What sheer luck?! This is something I achieved through exerting all my efforts okay?! When Laozi was working hard making big decisions, you were still being breastfed!!”

The pair of brothers bickered with each other. Watching them from the side, Ren Zhu propped up his chin with one hand and silently read the two words ‘Sizhu Hall’ in his heart.

This is really……

As expected, they went to Sizhu Hall for lunch. This was one of Qin Cong’s leading businesses. Since they were honoured by the presence of their big boss, the kitchen and the manager were both anxious to show him their best. At this moment, Qin Cong was wearing a suit and sitting beside Ren Zhu, pressing down his fiercely thumping heart. He commented on every dish that was served, and amongst them was that sweet and sour fish. Because there was so much to be criticised about it, young master Qin demanded the kitchen to make it again. When the new one was served, sure enough, it looked more carefully made.

Ren Zhu listened to Qin Cong’s composed criticism and suddenly asked: “You actually know so much about these dishes. I assume you must also be very good at cooking?”

Young master Qin instantly stopped talking.

Qin Shu quickly exposed his brother’s back story: “No! My brother hates knives. Every time he holds a knife, especially those long knives used to cut watermelon, he would shake so much that it’s just like he suddenly had epilepsy. So although he could always easily develop new dishes, as well as learn the secrets of other people’s cooking, he never cooks himself. He only knows how to make money.”

Qin Shu was once again smacked by his brother.

Ren Zhu lightly pressed his chest and felt that place start to hurt again. “Right, it’s better to stay away from knives. In the future, you can just directly take readily sliced dishes and season them. In any case, don’t you have money?”

Young master Qin immediately wagged his tail: “Right, right! Anyway, Laozi has money!”

Hearing this, Ren Zhu laughed again.

However, before he could finished laughing, a loud racket came from outside their private dining room, followed by an explosive roar that anyone could hear:

“Shut up! Laozi gave you money but you actually don’t want it? Are you stupid?! Laozi has money! Giving it to you means Laozi has noticed you!”

Ren Zhu: “……” This familiar chuunibyou speech ah.

He turned his head and quietly glanced at Qin Cong, whose mouth twitched in response. Qin Cong suddenly felt that his face was a little painful. Standing up with anger, he thought: Mdzz!! He must see which fool dared to shout ‘Laozi has money!’ in his restaurant.

Young master Qin instantly stood up. He was suddenly very graceful as he straightened out his suit and walked out in long strides. His series of actions were quite handsome, almost causing Ren Zhu to think that this person was a very serious and handsome overbearing president.

When Ren Zhu and Qin Shu followed along and left the private room, they saw a fairly beautiful young lady being dragged by a man in the middle of the restaurant. The former had tears staining her beautiful face, while the latter was bursting with anger.

Teacher Ren raised his eyebrows. This…… seemed to be a very typical plot ah.

“I have never liked you before. Please don’t bother me anymore! The person I like has never been you. You, you can’t force me okay?” The young lady’s appearance so pitiful that it could pull at people’s heartstrings.

However, that young man roared again: “I gave you money because I noticed you! You’re such a poor teacher, what kind of good life can you have?! I’ll tell you, why don’t you just be a rich wife at home? Is it that you’re willing to hear those people say that you’re poor every day, or did you reject me because you like Qin Cong?!”

Looking like this question had hit the nail on the head, the young lady abruptly covered her mouth and gasped: “Don’t talk nonsense! A-as if I like him!”

The young man coldly laughed: “Hehe. You don’t? Then as a poor teacher, why do you come to this restaurant every day? The meals here, even if I understate it, still cost more than 1000 yuan. With your meagre wage, can you afford it?!”

Teacher Ren: Yi. This development is a little different from what I imagined. Anyway, I wonder what that secretly loved person would think.

He lifted his gaze and looked towards Qin Cong, then discovering that this person’s face was full of indifference. Qin Cong’s expensive leather shoes stepped on the marble floor. He leisurely approached and looked at that man and woman.

The two of them simultaneously let out a cry of alarm.

“Song Chun, you’re really getting more and more stupid. Uncle didn’t give you money for you to pick up chicks. Besides, you couldn’t even pick them up. Don’t you know that your own company is almost bankrupt?”

That second generation called Song Chun stared at him in shock: “What nonsense are you talking about! Yesterday, my assistant told me that I made ten million yuan!”

Qin Cong smiled, but the ridicule within simply broke through the horizon. “That’s why I said you’re getting more and more stupid. When uncle chose your name, he didn’t name you correctly. He should have called you Cong.”

Song Chun flew into a rage: “You, you-!”

“What about me? This is my domain. This entire street is my territory. If you want to do something, it’s best you first use your brain. Why not use your money to crush me to death? Don’t you have a lot of money? I really envy you.”

Song Chun: “……” Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! Laozi is about to go mad!!

He fiercely kicked the chair next to him and then directly turned around and left. Let’s not mention that he wasn’t Qin Cong’s opponent, in terms of commercial profit and investment perspective, his entire Song family couldn’t even compare with Qin Cong this demon!! Fuck! So angry!

However, from the perspective of the others in the restaurant, young master Qin’s actions were really handsome.

Can’t you see the way that beautiful lady is looking at him?!

Even Teacher Ren couldn’t help but admit that when this fellow wasn’t acting like a chuunibyou, he was actually very imposing.

So, the next step should be the hero saving the beauty? Everyone silently but fervently watched the young lady and young master Qin.

However, young master Qin slapped them in the face: “Lady, don’t come here if you don’t have money. You should recognise your own value and status. Do what you can do, don’t overestimate your capabilities. Really, what a fool.”

After saying this, young master Qin directly turned around.

That young lady completely didn’t expect that young master Qin would behave like this. She immediately teared up: “Are you looking down on me because I’m a poor teacher?! But as a teacher, an engineer of the human soul, I am proud!!”

Ren Zhu: “……” As the same engineer of the soul, I feel bad for you.
