Chapter 2242: There Is a Wolf in the House, Keep Away From Strangers 25
Mr. Zhu smiled at Xi Ying.
"Mr. Zhu is indeed a former official. His mentality is different from that of ordinary people." Xi Ying complimented him.
After sending Xi Ying to the door, Mr. Zhu watched her leave. He closed the door only after Xi Ying's figure completely disappeared from his sight.
As soon as he turned around, his eyes caught the naughty girl.
"Yin Yi, come here!" Mr. Zhu's face was no longer as gentle and elegant as before, and he was very angry.
Yin Yi was preparing to pick flowers, and after hearing his call, she jumped over.
"Mr. Zhu, you called me?" Yin Yi blinked her bright and watery big eyes, looked at him innocently and asked.
"I ask you, why did you throw away Miss Zhang's water just now?"
"No reason, I just thought that glass of water looked very disgusting." Yin Yi said generously.
"Do you hate Miss Zhang?" Mr. Zhu was stunned.
"No, Mr. Zhu, is there something wrong with your ears? I mean that glass of water is really annoying. Zhang Manqing is so pretty, why should I hate her?" Yin Yi rolled her eyes at him speechlessly.
"..." Mr. Zhu was speechless, "How did that glass of water offend you? It's okay that you are rude to me during class, but you still treat guests like that. Where is the etiquette I taught you?"
"I ate it." Yin Yi smiled, "If the tea is spilled, just pour it again. Mr. Zhu, do you want me to pour it for you? Besides, I just spilled the tea, and didn't smash the teacup. It's not a big deal, right? Mr. Zhu, is there anything else? If not, then I'll leave first. I still have to pick flowers to play with!"
Mr. Zhu looked at the mischievous girl in front of him, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
He always felt that something was wrong, as if Yin Yi had stolen the concept, but he couldn't figure it out clearly.
"Mr. Zhu, do you want me to pour you another cup?" Yin Yi asked impatiently.
"Forget it, as long as you remember not to be rude to my guests in the future, that's enough. What's the point of asking you to pour another cup of tea now, you..."
"In that case, I'll go play!"
Yin Yi didn't listen to Mr. Zhu's words. When she heard that she didn't need to do anything, she interrupted Mr. Zhu and jumped back to her original position.
Mr. Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled helplessly.
Why is he competing with a child?
When he resigned from his official position and returned to his hometown to open a private school, wasn't it just to feel more of the vibrant life in the remaining time?
Yin Yi is the most lively and unrestrained one among this group of students, and also his favorite student.
Because his life is drying up step by step, and Yin Yi's life is like a spring of endless water, which can make him feel infinite vitality every day.
With Yin Yi, his remaining life seems to have color.
Therefore, Mr. Zhu didn't say anything else.
He slowly supported his chin with one hand, and his eyes followed the lively figure flowing among the flowers, plants and trees.
If possible, he hoped that such days would never stop.

Xi Ying walked out of Mr. Zhu's house and headed straight for the mountain.
Having received a positive answer, she now only needed to find a way to get close to twenty taels.
