Chapter 119 Torturous

Not only did Song Yao fail to react at once, but even Taotie, the protagonist of the "falling into the toilet" incident, was truly stunned.

The atmosphere awkwardly froze for a moment. Crack! Taotie bit down on a candy he had secretly taken from Su Yuan's car when he got out. Frowning, he took a deep breath and was just about to loudly retort when Zhao Zhao quickly covered his mouth.

"Alright, alright. I know it's embarrassing, but it's just told to cousin. Don't be angry, don't be angry." Zhao Zhao's mind was spinning rapidly at this moment, quickly cutting off all of Taotie's reactions.

"Um?" Taotie unbelievably tried to pull his master's hand away. "Um um um! Um! Um um um..."

His actions and expressions looked extremely excited. One could vaguely sense through all these angry "ums" that he must be swearing very vulgarly now.

Unfortunately, a spiritual beast couldn't fight back in front of its master. And since he was in the form of a human little boy now, he could only be dragged into the bedroom with his mouth covered by Zhao Zhao.

"Cousin, I'll take Taotie in to wash up. We're leaving first." After saying that, without caring about Song Yao's reaction, she lowered her head and ran away.

Song Yao stared at their backs until they disappeared behind the bedroom door before she finally came to her senses. She shook her head and laughed in exasperation.

She really learned all the bad things. She's getting more and more proficient at lying.

Falling into the toilet? Where on earth is there a toilet big enough for such a big kid to fall into? It seemed that her innocent little cousin must have done something she didn't want her to know.

Having guessed most of it, Song Yao's mood actually calmed down. She wasn't as irritable as before.

She cleared her throat, then turned around again to look at the tutor sitting firmly on the sofa. She apologized with a smile, "Sorry, teacher. The kid might be a bit rebellious recently."

The tutor on the sofa hadn't changed his expression much from beginning to end. He truly deserved to be a professional with extremely high professional qualities and an extremely high employment price.

"Then could you please wait a moment? I'll ask her to get ready. Our kid might have a bit of difficulty with her studies. I hope the teacher can be more patient."

"That's for sure, Miss Song."

Zhao Zhao was in the room arguing face - to - face with Taotie about the slander of him falling into the toilet just now. Suddenly hearing the knock on the door, her back stiffened.

"I don't care! If this gets out, where will I put my face in the future?!" Taotie refused to let it go. The corners of his eyes were red, looking like a poor little thing who was wronged but endured it.

Song Yao's voice came from outside the door continuously, "Zhao Zhao, open the door. It's time to come out for class. Don't keep the teacher waiting too long."

"Oops, stop talking first." Zhao Zhao was extremely annoyed. The dragon scales on her neck were faintly cold, giving her goosebumps. Taotie was still shouting non - stop, which really bothered her.

"Just calm down. How about I bring you ginseng fruits in a few days?" To deal with a glutton, of course, one had to use professional means. She threw out a bait to make a deal with Taotie.

Taotie was half - believing, "The ginseng fruits from Zhen Yuanzi? Is it for real?"

"For real!"

"Okay, it's a deal. You're not allowed to lie to this young master."

"Got it, got it. So go to sleep now and stop talking, okay?"

Taotie got the benefit and, having eaten and drunk his fill, obediently went out to his own room.

As soon as the bedroom door opened, Song Yao's confused face appeared, "What were you guys doing? You didn't open the door for so long."

"Nothing. I was in a gloomy mood because I fell into the toilet, and the master was consoling me." Taotie even helped Zhao Zhao come up with an excuse. It was rare.

"Humph..." Song Yao saw through it but didn't expose it. "Alright, come with me to the study."

As a demon who had just made a mistake and didn't dare to admit it, Zhao Zhao didn't have the right to object now. She could only resign herself to follow Song Yao to the study.

Considering the practical application, after discussing with the teacher, Song Yao arranged Zhao Zhao's first class to be a language application class.

This Teacher Liu was extremely intimidating from the very beginning of the class. Zhao Zhao only managed to briefly tell Su Yuan about the incident and the reason for her push through telepathy, asking Su Yuan to go back first.

Su Yuan stared at the door panel for a long time at the door. After receiving Zhao Zhao's message, he was helpless and a bit aggrieved. Why did he feel like he was being disliked and couldn't show his face?

But there was nothing he could do. Since Zhao Zhao said so, Su Yuan could only hold his breath and go back.

"Second Miss, focus. You've got the meaning of this word wrong again."

Teacher Liu pointed at the test paper in front of Zhao Zhao with a pen to remind her.

This familiar feeling made Zhao Zhao feel as if she had suddenly returned to the time when she was learning magic on Wutong Mountain and being stared at by her master. She unconsciously tightened the pen in her hand and withdrew her wandering thoughts.

But looking down at the questions in front of her, she suddenly felt that she might be a bit dizzy from knowledge. It was so painful... She couldn't understand!

Zhao Zhao was a bit crazy. What did the teacher say just now? What on earth did the phrase "cheers resound like thunder" mean?

Holding the pen, she faced the pile of exercises as if facing a great enemy. After much thought, she finally wrote the explanation, "In the happy voices, the thunder is very loud!"

The tutor who was watching from the side twitched her eyelids when seeing such an answer. Her eyes still couldn't help showing a bit of disbelief.

Even though Miss Song had told her about the situation before coming, seeing it with her own eyes still surprised her. This... Such a beautiful girl, but actually an illiterate.

Teacher Liu also had a daughter who was in junior high school at home. As a teacher, she understood too well how important knowledge was to a person. A rising sense of motherly love and responsibility welled up in her. She must teach Zhao Zhao well!

Thinking this way, Teacher Liu took a deep breath, walked to the printer in the study, and "ambitiously" printed out a thick stack of homework for Zhao Zhao.

"Here, take these as your after - class homework. I'll check them when I come next time." At the end of the class, Teacher Liu "lovingly" pushed the pile of homework in front of Zhao Zhao before leaving.

"..." Zhao Zhao had a headache. She carefully asked, "Then when will you come next time?"

Teacher Liu smiled, "Tomorrow evening."

"!!!" Zhao Zhao felt that she didn't even need to sleep. She was doomed...

Actually, for Little Tree (Zhao Zhao), finishing the homework wasn't a problem. After all, she could split out many little vines. But the key was, she didn't know how to do it!

Watching helplessly as Song Yao politely saw the tutor off, as soon as she opened her mouth to negotiate, Song Yao's encouraging look stopped her, "Zhao Zhao will study hard and won't let cousin down, right?"

Song Yao was good at moral blackmail. Zhao Zhao ran back to her bedroom with the homework in her arms, close to tears.

After struggling alone for an hour and a half, Zhao Zhao finally couldn't help calling Su Yuan, "Su Yuan, wuwuwu. Come and save me quickly..."

Su Yuan had just taken a shower and was drying his hair. When he answered the phone, his heart was lifted by Zhao Zhao's tone, "What's wrong? What happened?"

"I have so much homework I don't know how to do. Can you teach me?"

Su Yuan let out a sigh of relief. He thought something serious had happened. It turned out that she was tortured by the homework.

He couldn't help laughing. Just imagining it over the phone made her seem so cute.

"Okay, then you turn on the video—"

"Can you come now? We'll study secretly in the room." Before he could finish his sentence, Zhao Zhao interrupted him in a low voice. Su Yuan readily gave up his original plan of guiding her via video and quickly walked to the cloakroom to change his clothes.

"Okay, wait for me."

This little thing was really good at torturing people. She was truly his ancestor.

However, although the dragon said such words, the corners of his mouth never stopped rising.
