After school that afternoon, Wang Yi still headed toward the villa complex where he tutored, but he had already decided to end the job.

On the lawn.

"You don't want to do it anymore?" A look of mild surprise appeared on the maiden's face.

She then frowned. "Why? Is the pay too low...?"

"No." Wang Yi explained, "The College Entrance Exam is coming up soon, and I'm afraid I won't have time for this tutoring job, so it's better to end it early." Honestly, the maiden had already been paying him very well. Other Advanced Martial Arts Students usually earned a hundred an hour for tutoring, while he earned a hundred and fifty.

Gao Yurong looked at Wang Yi. Her crystal-clear eyes stared right at him, putting him under immense pressure, as though he had done something to wrong her. He inexplicably felt guilty.

After a while, the girl finally said, "Alright then..."

Wang Yi felt relieved when he saw Gao Yurong agree.

After spending so much time together, Wang Yi knew that Gao Yurong could be rather stubborn. He had been worried that she would object.

Even if she did object, it would not change anything. Still, they had known each other for so long, and it would not be good if their relationship turned sour.

"In that case, isn't the 18th a weekend? Your school should be on break, right? Come practice with me for the day." Gao Yurong's tone brooked no refusal.

"Well..."

Seeing his troubled expression, her tone turned displeased. "What? You can't?"

"I have something to do that day," Wang Yi said awkwardly.

"What do you have to do?" Gao Yurong gave a snort.

"A classmate invited me to the Monster Expo in the Jiangnan Main Urban Area that day," Wang Yi explained.

"A female classmate?" Gao Yurong frowned upon hearing that. She was very dissatisfied. I paid you, and you're actually standing me up for some girl?

I was wrong about you. So you're that kind of person!

"It's Classmate Lin," Wang Yi said.

"Lin Youyu?" Gao Yurong recalled.

She knew Lin Youyu as well.

"Are you two dating?" After a moment of silence, Gao Yurong asked.

"Classmate Lin and I aren't in that kind of relationship." Wang Yi shook his head slightly.

A girl by your side likes you?

To Wang Yi, that was all an illusion!

Just like how he thought Chen Yan might like him—perhaps it was simply the affection a younger sister had for an older brother.

That was why he had always been careful to keep his distance from girls.

In short, the important thing was not to flatter yourself!

Gao Yurong clearly did not believe him, but there was nothing she could do to stop Wang Yi from going.

At the thought of Lin Youyu possibly being with the brute in front of her, Gao Yurong felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

"That Monster Expo sounds interesting. I'll go take a look with you two as well." Gao Yurong's next words left Wang Yi stunned for a moment.

"The tickets..."

"I'll handle my own ticket. I'll talk to Youyu about it myself, so you don't need to worry about it." Gao Yurong was as domineering as ever.

"Alright then." Wang Yi did not really mind.

He checked the time, patted his butt, and stood up. "I should get going."

"It's still early. Let's continue." Gao Yurong was unwilling to let him leave. "I still haven't mastered those positions you mentioned."

Wang Yi looked at her helplessly. "We've been doing this here long enough. As for the positions, go back and watch the videos yourself. If there's anything you don't understand, call me tomorrow and ask..."

Honestly, being alone with such a young and beautiful girl almost every day, especially when she seemed to have no sense of caution and touched him from time to time, was no small challenge for a hot-blooded young man like Wang Yi.

Fortunately, his will was strong and he was an upright gentleman. Otherwise, he would have made a mistake long ago.

"I'll pay more!" Gao Yurong said coldly.

"This isn't about money..."

"Five times!"

"When do we start?"
