Chapter 281: Paternalistic Inquiry by a Jealous Man
Qin Shu immediately shook her head when she heard that. “How will I treat you like a decoration? You’re a straight A student. I just feel that you work so hard every day and only go to bed at midnight. You still have to find the time to teach me. If you’re too tired, your body won’t be able to take it.”
After she finished speaking, she looked at him with her starry eyes, indicating that she only felt sorry for him.
She finally understood why the man was still angry. It was because she didn’t ask him to teach her.
Fu Tingyu stared into her eyes which revealed an innocent look. His anger subdued a little.
“I’m busy but I still could find the time to teach you. If I can’t even do this, do I deserve to be your man?”
Qin Shu didn’t know whether to be happy or angry. A woman should be happy that a man did this for her, but by doing this, he didn’t even take care of his own body. She was really upset.
She lowered down her tone. “Then, do you plan to stay up late and work overtime in the study after teaching me?”
Fu Tingyu was stunned hearing this. He did plan to do so. By hook or by crook, he would find the time to teach her, and would not let another man teaching her.
“My wife doesn’t need to be taught by another man.”
Listening to his domineering tone, Qin Shu knew what he was thinking.
“I knew you would think so. Don’t you know that staying up late will not only reduce your lifespan, it might also…”cause sudden death.
She couldn’t utter the last two words.
The word ‘death’ was like a taboo. She didn’t want to hear it or say it.
She was extremely worried.
Fu Tingyu said, “This is not an excuse to be taught by others.”
Qin Shu stared at the man in front of her and said slowly, “If you were to teach me in such a way, I wouldn’t let you to teach me either. If you don’t feel sorry for yourself, I will.”
Fu Tingyu was stunned again when he heard that. He looked at her sullen face as if she was talking about an extremely serious matter.
His Babe was concerned about him.
However..
Noticing that he was silent, her tone also softened. “The knowledge that I’m learning now is all from the university. The classes are very long every day. Your time is simply not sufficient. Anyway, I won’t let you use your working hours to teach me and then stay up late to work overtime.”
All the knowledge that she was learning now was from the university?
Fu Tingyu asked, “How long have you been studying?”
“For quite some time.” Qin Shu’s reply was a little vague because if she had studied when she was at school, she would have studied it. It was unbelievable for an underachiever to suddenly become a straight-a student without any indication.
“How did you find a teacher on the internet?”
The inquiry tone of Fu Tingyu was like a parent. He had to ask in detail before he could rest assured.
Qin Shu replied, “It was a post on the forum that I wrote about the requirements for the teacher and the class. The professor replied and I had audited the class for a few days. I felt it met my requirements, then I continued.”
Fu Tingyu frowned. “Did you see the appearance of the other person?”
Qin Shu shook her head. “No.”
Fu Tingyu continued to ask, “Then, did he see you?”
Qin Shu shook her head again. “No.”
Fu Tingyu nodded his head in satisfaction. However, he still did not want a stranger to teach her. Moreover, it was on the Internet, one-to-one. This was completely different from the condition of a male teacher teaching in a classroom.
Qin Shu noticed that his expression had softened. She asked carefully, “Are you still upset?”
Fu Tingyu looked at her and pursed his lips. He didn’t want to mention that he wasn’t upset. If he mentioned it, she would think that he was approving her actions.
Nevertheless, he still felt a little upset.
Seeing that he did not answer, Qin Shu grabbed the sleeve of his black suit and tugged at it. “Why aren’t you replying me?”
Fu Tingyu glanced at her bright eyes. He couldn’t stand looking at her innocent look. He turned around and left.
Qin Shu was stunned. She didn’t expect him to leave in such a manner. She shouted hurriedly, “Where are you going?”
“The study.”
Without turning his head, Fu Tingyu uttered these two words.
“…”
Qin Shu watched his tall and straight figure disappeared at the door. She sighed helplessly. He liked to be jealous. He was no different from a vinegar bag.
He was spoilt.
She turned around and looked at the fruit plate on the desk. The watermelons were cut into cubes, each looked like tofu cubes. Bamboo sticks were inserted into each of them.
There were also cherries which had been cleanly washed.
She could imagine how he rolled up his sleeves and washed the fruits in front of the sink. This scene would definitely be very pleasing to the eyes.
Her white fingers reached into the fruit plate, picked up the bamboo sticks, and put the watermelon cubes into her mouth. She chewed on it. It was juicy and sweet. It was really sweet.
She took a cherry and put it into her mouth. She chewed on it. There was a bit of sourness in the sweetness. It was the taste she liked.
Qin Shu looked at the cherries in the fruit plate. She thought for a moment, took the plate and walked straight to the study.
The study and the bedroom were not far from each other. If you walked along the corridor for five meters, you would reach the study after turning at the corner and walked for another three-meter.
Qin Shu held the fruit plate and ate all the way to the study. She grabbed the doorknob, pressed to open it and and walked into the room.
When he heard the sound of the door opening, Fu Tingyu who was sitting in front of the desk had just started to hold the mouse with his slender fingers.
He turned his head to look at the door and saw her walking in carrying a fruit plate. There was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Qin Shu carried the fruit plate to the desk and stood still. She glanced at the man who was staring at her with a smile.
She picked up a cherry from the fruit plate and handed it towards his mouth.
Fu Tingyu glanced at the cherry which was placed on the side of his lips. He didn’t like to eat cherries and he looked at her with questions on his mind.
Qin Shu looked at the cherry, raised her eyebrows and told him “Eat it.”
Although Fu Tingyu was puzzled as to why she suddenly asked him to eat the cherry, he still opened his month and ate it. He chewed slowly and initially tasted the sweetness. After a short while, a sour taste filled his entire mouth, causing him to furrow his long and narrow eyebrows.
Qin Shu watched him ate the cherry and furrowed his beautiful eyebrows due to the sourness. This was the first time she saw a man furrowed his eyebrows because of eating something sour.
Fu Tingyu didn’t like to eat sour food. It should be said that he couldn’t stand the sourness.
Therefore, the sourness of the cherries was enough to make him unable to stand it.
However, it was fed by a girl although it was sour. He still have to eat the cherries even if the sourness would make him cry.
After he finished eating, he spat the stone into a piece of tissue and threw it into the trash can.
Fu Tingyu couldn’t help but sighed. After so many years, she still liked to make fun on others.
When Qin Shu saw him finished eating, she held back her laughter and asked, “Is it sour?”
“…”Fu Tingyu: “It was sour.”
“Sour is the right word.” If it wasn’t sour, how could you know how strong was the smell of vinegar just now?
Qin Shu picked up the watermelon on the bamboo stick and passed it to him. “Here, this is sweet.”
