Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 450 - 443: So That’s How It Is

The atmosphere in the car was a bit oppressive; Cheng Shishi hadn’t expected there to be another man in the car. Although he looked familiar, she couldn’t quite recall where she had seen him before.

Cheng Shishi sneaked a glance at him from the corner of her eye. He seemed to be under forty, dressed impeccably, with a refined, gentle demeanor. He had a mature man’s charm, especially those eyes of his, which were particularly spirited, with a hint of mischief.

What a charismatic uncle!

Noticing the young girl secretly peeking at him, Wu Chengzu nodded with a smile and said in a deep, magnetic voice, "Hello, Teacher Xiao Cheng. I am Wu Jingjing’s father." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"You’re the parent?"

Cheng Shishi was taken aback. She had initially thought the driver was the parent, but it turned out it was this gentleman.

"Yes, I’ll be counting on you for my daughter in the future." Wu Chengzu continued, looking at Cheng Shishi, "Jingjing is a bit rebellious and doesn’t take well to discipline. You’re the fourth tutor after the previous three."

Chen Bei listened to his boss with a speechless expression.

The boss is usually quite smart, but why is he acting foolish now? Doesn’t he know what his daughter is like? Telling the teacher all this before she even starts is basically setting her up to fail, isn’t it?

Cheng Shishi hadn’t expected Wu Chengzu to share this information, making her expression a bit awkward.

What’s this supposed to mean? A warning? Or something else?

But Wu Chengzu laughed, "Teacher Xiao Cheng, don’t misunderstand. I don’t mean anything by saying this. It’s just that my daughter is a bit of a handful, and I wanted to give you a heads-up."

Cheng Shishi felt a wave of frustration. Was she going to teach or to face a death sentence?

The car stopped at a high-end apartment building, and Cheng Shishi looked around. Although it wasn’t as luxurious as her brother-in-law’s place, it was still where only wealthy people could afford to live.

It seems the other party is quite well-off! Cheng Shishi couldn’t help but be a little pleased with herself for landing such a wealthy client.

Wu Chengzu led Cheng Shishi into the house, and she took in the minimalist interior, which seemed to match the male owner well.

With such a father, the daughter can’t be too bad, right?

Cheng Shishi reassured herself like this...

But once she actually met Wu Jingjing, Cheng Shishi realized just how naive she had been. The child simply wouldn’t budge, doing the opposite of everything Cheng Shishi asked. Communicating with Wu Jingjing alone took up half the lesson.

By the end of the class, Cheng Shishi felt like she’d lost half her life.

After class, Wu Chengzu insisted on driving Cheng Shishi home.

In the car, Cheng Shishi was tempted several times to tell Wu Chengzu that she couldn’t handle teaching his daughter and that he should find someone else.

However, thinking of the generous pay, Cheng Shishi just couldn’t bring herself to say it.

Imagining that she, a top university graduate, would end up outsmarted by a thirteen-year-old? Cheng Shishi made a silent vow in her heart to conquer Wu Jingjing, if for no other reason than the exorbitant salary!

"Just stop here, it’s fine," Cheng Shishi instructed Wu Chengzu to stop the car across the street, and opened the car door to get out.

"Teacher Xiao Cheng, do you live here?" Wu Chengzu looked up at the building; this wasn’t a place where just anyone could live, and even Wu Chengzu didn’t own property here.

"No," Cheng Shishi shook her head. "This is my sister and brother-in-law’s place. I just stay here over the weekends. Well, see you tomorrow!"

Cheng Shishi waved goodbye to Wu Chengzu and quickly crossed the road.

A car pulled up and stopped in front of Cheng Shishi. She smiled and greeted the person in the car. At that moment, the car door opened, and Bai Yiran stepped out.

On the other side of the street, Wu Chengzu witnessed the whole scene and was slightly surprised to realize that Cheng Shishi’s sister was actually Bai Yiran!
