Chapter 89: The Tutor is My Ex-girlfriend?

The visitor wore a light green dress, with buttons neatly lined up on the front. Her long, straight black hair was silky smooth, and the dimples on her cheeks made people feel happy just looking at her.

Fang Zhou almost dropped his jaw in shock.

Why was Chu Xinran here?

Chu Xinran, standing at the door, was equally surprised.

She blinked, took a step back, and glanced at the door number, muttering softly, “902, I didn’t get it wrong…”

After confirming the door number, she focused her gaze on Fang Zhou’s face and smiled, asking, “So Fang Wenjing is your sister?”

Fang Zhou, bewildered, was about to respond when his sister beat him to it.

“Yes, yes! I am Fang Wenjing, and he is my brother, Fang Zhou!”

“Pretty sister, are you here to tutor me today?”

Fang Wenjing’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Chu Xinran, her face full of joy.

Such a beautiful sister, if only she could be my sister-in-law!

Chu Xinran quickly regained her composure, her gaze moving to the girl in the white dress who looked so well-behaved.

She had a delicate face, with round eyes that looked very endearing.

However, her cheeks were a bit sunken, and her complexion seemed pale, as if she was malnourished.

The siblings, except for their thin lips, didn’t look alike at all. Probably one took after their father and the other after their mother.

Lowering her voice, Chu Xinran gently replied, “Yes, Wu Shu had something come up today, so she asked me to tutor you.”

Fang Wenjing inwardly cheered, “Well done!”

This morning, her tutor Wu Shu had called, saying she couldn’t make it today and would send someone else.

Fang Wenjing didn’t think much of it, assuming another person would tutor her just the same.

Who would have thought Wu Shu would send such a beautiful friend!

With her pure and charming appearance, even a girl like Wenjing felt moved!

While contemplating how to subtly inquire about her new tutor’s relationship status, Wenjing smiled warmly and welcomed her.

“Hehe, welcome, welcome, pretty sister, please come in and sit!”

Saying this, Wenjing squeezed past the stunned Fang Zhou, who was standing still.

She shot him a glance: ‘Go get something to entertain her! What are you standing there for? Pretty girls don’t like wooden blocks!’

Feeling his sister’s disdain, Fang Zhou dumbly stepped aside, making space for Chu Xinran to enter.

As she stepped in, she took the shoe covers Wenjing handed her while observing the apartment’s layout.

It was a common apartment with about three or four rooms, along with a kitchen and a living room.

Judging from Fang Zhou’s claim of having no money, it was likely a rented place.

“Hehe, here’s some fruit, pretty sister, have some!”

Wenjing enthusiastically led Chu Xinran to the living room, offering her fruit.

It took Fang Zhou a while to accept the reality of his ex-girlfriend Chu Xinran being at their home.

Could there really be such coincidences in the world? He found it hard to believe.

Moreover, with Chu Xinran’s background, did she need to do a 200-yuan-per-hour tutoring job?

More importantly, they had just returned from the island today. Shouldn’t Chu Xinran go home first? Any good friend would let her rest, right?

Fang Zhou found it incomprehensible.

Before he could react, Chu Xinran, taking advantage of Wenjing going to her room to fetch snacks, winked at Fang Zhou and softly said, “You seem not very happy to see me.”

Fang Zhou lightly coughed, quickly covering up.

“Not at all, we’re thrilled you’re here to tutor my sister.”

Chu Xinran, being from the same prestigious university, even if she majored in the arts, wouldn’t be lacking in the main subjects.

Had Fang Zhou not been busy making money, he might have tutored his sister himself.

Chu Xinran tilted her head and smiled, revealing her dimples. “Really?”

Though she smiled, Fang Zhou sensed her gaze was unfriendly, with hidden dangers in her dark eyes.

Recalling yesterday when she and Han Xi cornered him for answers, Fang Zhou felt this wasn’t over.

Would Chu Xinran let him off so easily?

Clearly not!

Just as he was about to respond, Wenjing ran out from her room, arms full of snacks.

“Hehe, pretty sister, have some!”

Seeing her unsteady steps, Fang Zhou hurried over to help.

“Slow down, you can bring them over bit by bit.”

As he took the snacks, Fang Zhou noticed something was off.

Potato chips? Spicy strips? Chocolate? Jerky?

Due to Wenjing’s illness, she couldn’t eat many things, so her snacks were specially made for patients.

But the pile in his arms wasn’t.

These were his snacks!

Fang Zhou gave his sister a questioning look: ‘Why did you bring out all my snacks?’

Wenjing glared at him as if to say: ‘What’s wrong with letting her eat some?’

‘Open your mind!’

With a big smile, Wenjing sat next to Chu Xinran, recommending the snacks one by one.

Fang Zhou thought: Alright, alright, I was wrong. Should I leave?

“This chocolate is super delicious! My brother is very picky, but he loves this!”

Seeing the white-packaged chocolate in the girl’s hand, Chu Xinran’s smile froze, and she momentarily dazed.

She took the chocolate absentmindedly and softly said, “Is that so?”

Isn’t this my favorite chocolate? How did he end up liking it too? Did he get influenced by me when we were together?

Wenjing, unaware of the awkwardness, continued rummaging through the snacks, confidently confirming, “Yes! He loves it! Eats it all the time!”

Attracted by their conversation, Fang Zhou glanced at the chocolate, memories flooding back, making his smile stiffen.

It seemed that when he was with Chu Xinran, she was very picky and didn’t eat many snacks.

To please her, Fang Zhou bought every chocolate available, tasting each one until confirming this was the best.

After recommending it to Chu Xinran, she indeed loved it.

Fang Zhou then only ate that chocolate, even now.

Seeing Chu Xinran’s expression, Fang Zhou knew she was reminiscing.

He inwardly groaned: Habits die hard!
