Chapter 93: Sky-High Tuition Fees
Even though she hadn’t wanted to, here she was, going to the Hawk Manor again. In the magnificent living room, Mrs. Hawk was already waiting for her.
She couldn’t identify Tang Yu because she was wearing a mask. However, her large watery eyes were lovely. She could guess that the lady was very beautiful. No wonder Mike wanted to choose his own tutor… He must really like this teacher.
“I’m very sorry, Mrs.Hawk. I’ve caught a bad cold these few days. The doctor suggested that I wear a mask to prevent me from infecting others.”
Mrs. Hawk judged that Tang Yu was pretty good from her resume. She had graduated from a prestigious university and had many tutoring experiences during her time in school. She had even won many international awards at such a young age.
He had called the school to verify the resume. They said that she had done an excellent job in tutoring, and that she was a simple and kind person.
“Your name Is Tang Yu?”
“Yes, madam.”
“I know a girl named Tang Ye.”
“There are a lot of people with the surname Tang.” Tang Yu tried her best not to be nervous. Deep down, she wanted this to end as soon as possible so she could leave this place immediately.
Mrs. Hawk stared at her for a long time, then she said slowly, “Please teach him well. Don’t worry about the remuneration. If Mike’s academic ranking improves by 100 places, I will give you one million dollars. If he manages to enter the top 10, I will give you 3 million dollars.”
Hearing the astronomical tuition fee, Tang Yu suddenly felt refreshed. She was no longer nervous, but instead, her eyes sparkled with joy. “Really?”
“Absolutely. We can sign a contract right away.”
Originally, Tang Yu had just been here to deal with Mike. She did not expect to hit a jackpot right away. It would be a waste if she did not take the offer.
With his current results, it would be difficult to improve by 10 places, let alone 100.
However, at the mention of money, she was full of energy.
“Don’t worry, Madam!” Tang Yu’s eyes sparkled. ‘Hehehe, Mike, please study hard…’
The place for tutoring was near the school. It was a small villa of the Hawk family’s that had been abandoned for many years.
When Tang Yu and Mike reached the place, it had already been cleaned up.
Mike walked up and down the stairs happily. When he saw the house full of easels, canvases, plaster figurines, paints, and all kinds of painting books, he was so happy that he jumped in excitement.
“Big brother really didn’t lie to me!” he was so happy that he was dancing with joy.
“Big brother?”
“Nothing.” Mike realized he almost slipped up, so he quickly changed the topic. “Look, this is the world’s best paint. Look at this color. ” He quickly took out his paintbrush and showed the color.
Tang Yu had never cared about these things, but she had never seen such beautiful and dreamy colors in her life. She felt that it was very novel. “So you like to paint?”
“I’ve loved to draw and paint since I was young, but my family doesn’t support me. I can sit in my room all day painting and not go anywhere. I can even stay home for an entire month just to paint!” Mike took out his phone, showing off his previous works. “Look!”
She could not help but sigh. “Mike, your paintings are really beautiful.”
“I know I don’t have any talent in school, but I’m definitely a genius in drawing!”
His eyes lit up like a child when he talked about art.
“You didn’t bring me here just to draw, right? I don’t know how to draw, so I can’t teach you that.”
“It’s okay, Ms.Tang. Tutoring is my mother’s idea. I don’t need tuition! There is a reason why I recommended you. Just listen to me. From now on, you can accompany me every day after school and pretend to supervise me. In reality, you don’t have to do anything. Isn’t it very relaxing and comfortable? You don’t have to thank me.”
Tang Yu looked at him, feeling a headache coming. This won’t do. If Mike didn’t study, wouldn’t the three million dollars be out of her reach?
She said to the high school kid seriously, “Mike, no matter what, you might have a family in the future. Studying is very important for you. Can’t you just spend an extra hour studying every day?”
“An hour?” Mike frowned. “An hour is too much.”
Tang Yu really wanted to hit him. Shouldn’t high school students study from morning to night?!
“One hour, no less! Sit down now, I’ll teach you.” Tang Yu sat beside him as she opened his homework.
Mike stared at her as she attempted to earnestly teach him. He really felt that she was pretty, and his gaze subconsciously moved down to her chest
“What are you looking at?!” Tang Yu knocked on his head with a pen.
“If Song Yi knew that you were tutoring me, he would definitely be very envious of me. Ms.Tang, other than the content of the school cla.s.s, you can also make up for something else… I’m already a mature man, I don’t mind that you’re six years older than me…”
