Translator: Lonelytree

I raised my eyes to look at him in bewilderment. Seeing this extremely familiar face in front of me, I wondered if Jing Tian had reincarnated as well?

Back in this timeline, Jing Tian was supposed to be unapproachable and cold-hearted. Jing Tian wouldn’t even abide by the rules of his grandfather, so why did he agree to my request so easily?

Jing Tian took out his cell phone and placed it in my hand. “Store your phone number and send me the papers for all your subjects. I’ll design a study plan for you.”

I was not going to question my good luck. I had no idea why Jing Tian was treating me this way, but I knew I had to seize this opportunity. Having each other’s number would bring me one step closer to him.

Jing Tian then turned and left the greenhouse. I swore his gait was frantic.

After the banquet started, I was found by the maid. Under her disdainful gaze, I was led to the front hall. The place was crowded. The jewels glowed and champagne flowed.

“Nan Xing! We’re here!” Jing Ning waved at me. I pretended to not see him and wandered over to a corner.

“Second miss, your father would like to speak with you.” My father’s secretary accosted me. I nodded and followed him.

“Nan Xing, come, come, come.” My father waved at me with a big smile on his face. Beside him was Old Master Jing, Jing Tian’s father and Jing Ning’s grandfather, Jing Sheng.

Jing Tian was standing beside Old Master Jing with his hands behind his back and an impatient scowl on his face.

I smiled inside my heart.

“Nan Xing, Grandpa Jing was just asking about you. Where have you been?” My father’s smile was fawning but he didn’t seem to realize it himself.

I bowed to Old Master Jing, “Good evening, Old Master Jing!”

I was not going to refer to him as Grandpa Jing anymore because my aim was to be his daughter-in-law!

Grandpa Jing didn’t notice the change in my term of endearment, after all, many people referred to him as Old Master Jing. I felt a gaze on me, without looking up, I knew it was Jing Tian.

“Nan Xing, this is 7th master, Jing Tian. You can call him little uncle. Do you still remember him?” Father’s voice was high and effusive, I had no idea why he was acting like this. His whole person was screaming the need to please the Jing Family members.

Remember him??I looked at Jing Tian, I refused to call him little uncle, I didn’t like that term.

“Of course you don’t remember! Our Nan Xing has a goldfish memory! Her memory only lasts for 7 seconds! Ha ha, 7th Master, please don’t mind her!” I felt like my father would kowtow to them if he would win favors that way.

Jing Tian was not amused by my father’s performance, instead he fixed his eyes on me. It was Old Master Jing who gave my father face and smiled, “Nan Xing is so grown up now. She is growing into such a beauty. Nan Xing, do you still remember the kidnapping when we went out for an outing when you were young? If not for you, Jing Tian wouldn’t have lived until this day! Do you have any memory of it?”

I looked at Jing Tian and then at my eager father. I shook my head slowly.

Old Master Jing’s smile faded and he sighed. “It’s good that you can’t remember it, it’ll be less pressure on you that way.”

My father concurred, “Yes, let bygones be bygones. What’s important is the present! Look at what Jing Tian has achieved!” He turned to smile sweetly at Old Master Jing, “Grandpa Jing, you must be glad to have Jing Tian at your side!”

Old Master Jing smiled, he turned to look at his son with pride plain on his face.

Jing Tian spoke, “Nan Xing is in her year 3 of high school?”

Father was startled before he nodded, “Yes, she’s in year 3, she’ll be taking university entrance exam next year.”

“How is her studies?” Jing Tian asked.

In a split second, a thought flashed through my mind. I looked at Jing Tian in surprise. He wasn’t looking at me, he focused on my father.

My father was in a bit of dilemma. My results, like my existence, was a shameful point to the family.

“It’s not so good.” I admitted softly.

My father’s face was red with embarrassment.

“Let me be your tutor then. I’ll be a teacher’s assistant at M University starting from next semester. I wish to find a student to prep before I start my work there. The tutoring will be free but you’ll have to listen to my orders!” Jing Tian’s voice was completely void of the gentleness he had in the greenhouse. Instead there was a dominance that no one dared to challenge.

We were all stunned.

I was over the moon, no words could express my joy at this surprise.

Old Master Jing was confounded. His son, Jing Tian was never a people person.?He didn’t even want come to this party in the first place. So why did he make a special exception to be Nan Xing’s tutor?

My father was ecstatic. He rubbed his hands together and stammered, “That, that is great. Oh, this is perfect! Nan Xing, do you know? Jing Tian scored the best in our city when he took his university entrance exam! Nan Xing, you have to say yes, you mustn’t let this chance slip away!”
