Chapter 44: It’s Not Jealousy! It’s Inspection!
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
After returning to Zhao Yanzi’s room, Hao Ren realized it was almost eight o’clock and decided to send a text message to Zhao Jiayi. He notified his roommates that he was not going back, just in case they got worried. The four of them had a very close bond. Thus, Hao Ren didn’t want them to worry, especially during this sensitive period after Huang Xujie’s incident.
“Who are you texting?” Zhao Yanzi came and looked when she saw Hao Ren busy texting someone.
Hao Ren turned his body away and avoided her gaze. However, this made her even more curious, and she had to see.
Di… message sent. Hao Ren put his cell phone back in his pocket.
He turned back and looked at Zhao Yanzi. “Alright, sit down and let’s start your lesson,” he said.
Zhao Yanzi sat down angrily. Suddenly, she raised her head and looked at Hao Ren from the side, “You were texting that Class President, right?”
“Since when were you allowed to question me?” Hao Ren reached his finger out and dabbed her nose. The pink pajamas made Zhao Yanzi look as cute as a rabbit, and the pink undertone of her fair skin was just like those of the porcelain dolls they sold at the store. Hao Ren had the urge to tease her a little.
Hao Ren felt funny especially when he noticed the jealousy in her voice.
Pa! She hit Hao Ren’s arm hard and had an extreme reaction toward Hao Ren’s touch.
“What? Are you jealous?” Hao Ren asked as he used his left hand to rub his right arm, which had turned red.
“Do you think I can’t kick you out?” Zhao Yanzi pointed at the outside and said viciously.
At this moment, it was still raining cats and dogs. Even though it was quiet in the house, the sound of the rain outside was still audible, and it sounded like a huge storm.
Hao Ren didn’t want to worsen the atmosphere. He sighed, “No, I sent a text message to my roommate and told him that I’m not going back tonight so they won’t worry about me.”
“Give me your cell phone!” Zhao Yanzi reached out her pink and soft hand.
Hao Ren sighed again and didn’t think he should argue with a little girl. Thus, he took out his cell phone and handed it to her.
Zhao Yanzi turned on the phone and actually started checking the text messages on his phone. Her serious expression seemed like that of a suspicious girlfriend, inspecting her boyfriend’s phone.
When she saw that the text message was sent to a guy named Zhao Jiayi, she snorted lightly and returned the cell phone to Hao Ren.
“Not worried anymore?” Hao Ren put his cell phone back in his pocket and asked her intentionally.
“What is there to worry about!” Zhao Yanzi defended herself.
After all, Hao Ren still couldn’t understand the little girl’s mindset. He flipped open the study material. “Let’s start with English. Today, we are going to emphasize the knowledge point on the infinitive ‘to do something’,” he said.
Zhao Yanzi bit her lips, ignored the thought of arguing with Hao Ren, and opened her notebook.
This time, Hao Ren explained very carefully and attentively. He tried to slow down his explanations and started with the most straightforward concepts to the most difficult ones. After tutoring a few times, he knew what level Zhao Yanzi was at and how he should explain the key points accordingly.
Zhao Yanzi seemed to be putting in more effort than before. She propped her chin up with her left hand as she memorized and processed the concepts at the same time.

The pink pajamas emitted a light aroma. Her eyebrows were slightly raised. The appearance of Zhao Yanzi in deep thought was actually a little charming.
“This little girl is still pretty lovely when she’s quiet,” While explaining, Hao Ren thought to himself.
Zhao Yanzi listened and started to blank out gradually. Her gaze moved to Hao Ren’s face. Looking at the somewhat familiar and unfamiliar facial features, staring at the brightness in his eyes, and listening to various English sentences coming out of his mouth, Zhao Yanzi felt slightly dazed.
The soft and wet hair stood up messily on top of Hao Ren’s head and reflected the light. Compared to Hao Ren’s normal dry hair, the wet hair seemed to have added some handsomeness to his appearance.
“Hey, why didn’t you write anything down?” Hao Ren waved his hand in front of Zhao Yanzi’s unfocused eyes as he asked.
Zhao Yanzi, recovering from blanking out, flushed slightly and asked. “Ah, where were we?”
Hao Ren signed helplessly, “We’re at the combination of subject grammar. Utilize “it” to be the subject of the sentence. For example, ‘it – is – my – duty – to – take – care – of – you’.”
“Oh, oh,” Zhao Yanzi wrote the sentence down but didn’t really understand, so she asked again, “What does this sentence mean?”
“How come you don’t know this simple sentence?” Hao Ren pointed at his notebook and said, “Duty is responsibility, and this sentence means taking care of you is my responsibility.”
He was angry and a bit depressed. He prepared detailed information and explained so clearly, but Zhao Yanzi didn’t even care and blanked out.
Seeing Hao Ren was getting slightly impatient, Zhao Yanzi got irritated as well. “I was at school all day and have to listen to you tutor at night. I’m already tired to death! Why can’t I snooze for a bit?”
Hao Ren wasn’t feeling that great either and got angry when he saw her finding excuses for herself. “What kind of attitude is this? I am helping you out by teaching you…”
Knock! Knock! Knock! Three knocking sounds came from the door.
The door opened soon after. Zhao Hongyu, who walked in with a plate of snacks in her hands, asked, “What are you guys fighting about?”
Half of Hao Ren’s anger suddenly disappeared when he saw Zhao Hongyu. Zhao Yanzi’s expression also turned tame.
“Uh… nothing. We were discussing a knowledge point, and Zi and I had different opinions,” Hao Ren said.
“Oh? Let me see,” Zhao Hongyu didn’t seem to buy his excuse. She walked over, picked up Zhao Yanzi’s notes, and read with fluent English, “It – is – my – duty – to – take – care – of – you, which means it is my responsibility to look after you. What’s wrong with this sentence?”
Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi were both embarrassed and didn’t know how to answer. Hao Ren felt weird as well. “Why did I get so angry when Zhao Yanzi randomly talked back?
“Hmm, it’s a great sentence,” Zhao Hongyu put Zhao Yanzi’s notes down and moved the plate of snacks towards them. “It’s been a while since we had dinner. Eat some snacks,” she said.
“Thank you, auntie,” Hao Ren grabbed a slice of cake.
“Thanks, mom.” Zhao Yanzi pouted her mouth as she carefully grabbed a piece of desserts from the plate.
“Alright, I’m not going to disturb you anymore. Study hard,” Zhao Hongyu took the plate and walked out of the room with a smile.
Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi looked at each other and felt a bit awkward. Strangely, the burning flames of anger couldn’t seem to be ignited again.
Hao Ren coughed twice and broke the silence. He followed the spirit Zhao Hongyu conveyed at dinner time and said, “We’ll stop here for English. You don’t have questions about other subjects, right? It seems like you’re tired as well. Let’s call it a day.”
Hua! Zhao Yanzi pulled out her drawer and grabbed a few thick exercise books.
A smile of revenge emerged on her face as she spoke with a clear voice, “I suddenly feel energetic again!”
