Su Qiuge hesitated for a moment before asking Teacher Jia, “Then Teacher, am I handing it to you over the weekend?”
Teacher Jia shook his head, “The one coming over the weekend is the teaching assistant. You can ask him any questions you have. Later, I will ask the teaching assistant about your situation.”
Su Qiuge felt that these make-up lessons had rendered counterproductivity to herself instead.
When she answered those newly-assigned basic questions, she even purposefully picked a few questions to answer incorrectly in order to prevent Teacher Jia from having any doubts.
When the weekend arrived, the doorbell rang not long after she woke up. She was still washing her face and brushing her teeth.
In her mind, she thought about how this teaching assistant came really early. She picked up her electric toothbrush and rinsed her mouth.
She hoped that this teaching assistant would not be like that Teacher Jia. He was clearly not that old, but he was so rigid that it caused people to feel suffocated.
She previously mentioned to Yang Xue that this tutor’s teaching method might not be suitable for her, but Yang Xue still insisted that she continued.
Su Qiuge felt that Yang Xue’s method of discipline was really problematic. But the money was already paid, so there’s nothing to be done even if she doesn’t go.
While she brushed her teeth in the bathroom, she also raised her voice and said, “Wait a moment, I will open the door in a bit.”
There was still foam in her mouth, so her voice was a little vague. It was unknown if the person understood her words.
Then, she quickly picked up the facial cleanser that was off to the side and squeezed a bit onto her palm.
But at this moment, there was a slight noise that came from outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, Su Qiuge heard the sound of the combination lock of the house being unlocked.
Then the sound of footsteps that weren’t quick or slow came from the hallway entrance
When Su Qiuge heard the movement, her action of washing her face paused. She wondered in her mind, how did the door open?
She felt lingering fear in her heart for a moment.
Apparently, there has been a mentally illed person going around everyday knocking doors and harassing people recently. It can’t be that that person managed to get into her house?
She’s typically home alone, so if she really caught someone’s eye, it’s uncertain if they wouldn’t realize that after carefully watching her.
When she thought to this point, she hurriedly splashed one final handful of water onto her face, then immediately opened the bathroom door and walked towards the living room.
The moment she turned the corner, she saw a person leaning over in the hallway and changing their shoes.
They seemed to have heard her movement and raised their eyes, revealing a pair of eyes with upturned corners under fragments of black hair.
Su Qiuge wore loose floral pajamas and had a bath headband on her head with two vertical bunny ears. The entire person appeared somewhat dazed.
She stared blankly for a few seconds.
WTF.
“How come it’s you??”
She pinched herself, “Or am I dreaming? Am I still not awake?”
After she finished speaking, she breathed out a sigh of relief, “I actually dreamed of Xie Xinglin coming into my house in the morning, what a terrifying nightmare……”
Without waiting for her to finish, the sound of a boy’s voice that seemed to be smiling but also not, traveled over from the hallway, “Terrifying?”
!!!
Su Qiuge’s initial attempt at self-hypnosis failed. After she finally accepted the reality, her eyes widened in disbelief, “I’m not dreaming? This is actually real?”
Xie Xinglin was unperturbed. He sized her up with one glance before he raised his eyes and unhurriedly said, “As it turns out, the student that Jia Hesheng described as having an extremely weak foundation, dishonorable attitude, and even liked to deceive the teachers was you.”
Jia Hesheng was the name of Teacher Jia.
“……”
Su Qiuge pulled down the bath headband on her head, “Seatmate, shouldn’t you give me an explanation?”
She stretched out two fingers and tried to forcibly suppress her previous panic, pretending to be calm, “First, why are you a teaching assistant?”
“Of course, right now that matter isn’t very important anymore.”
“Second, how do you know the password to my door?”
???
This is simply a horror story.
