"Well, my lovely Theresa?"
"Tsk."
It seems to be getting even weirder...
After a few minutes, the friendly interaction between the grandfather and grandson ended.
Theresa, the initiator of this call, coughed twice and started to get to the point with a serious expression:
"Grandpa, can you please let Kiana go?"
If it was before she actually came into contact with Kiana, she might not have made such a temptation at all.
But as they spent some time together, she found that she seemed to have fallen a little.
She really began to think of herself as the other person's aunt.
Now that I think about it, this is probably something that cannot be avoided.
After all, that silly girl Kiana is so likable, who can remain unmoved after getting along with her?
Driven by "family affection", Theresa raised the question.
But it made Otto stunned.
Kiana?
Are you referring to the little girl who secretly brings cakes to Mian every day?
As she thought about it, her eyes flickered.
The next second, the omniscience and omnipotence of the personality gift instantly presented all the information about "Kiana" before his eyes.
So that's it, K423, Orchiddale...
It's really interesting that a tool that shouldn't have survived has a human name, and it was given by that human's biological father himself.
I really can’t imagine what expression the girl named “Yulan Dell” would have when she learned the truth.
Thinking of this with interest, Otto took the initiative to shut down his innate authority of omniscience and omnipotence.
In an instant, the slightly chaotic flow of information receded like a tide, and the world returned to peace again.
Looking at Theresa's delicate face full of solemnity, Otto smiled with great ease.
Then, her eyes flickered and she said casually:
"My dear Theresa, even if you hadn't come to ask me, I would not have done anything to the 'girl' you call Kiana.
"...Because, I've found something better now."
Hearing the sound, Theresa was startled at first, then she jumped up excitedly.
Then she disappeared from the communication window.
Otto blinked, thought for a moment, and finally looked down tentatively.
Unfortunately, communication is ultimately a two-dimensional transmission rather than a three-dimensional presentation.
Otherwise, she would be able to see Theresa through this longing glance, who was standing in front of the chair with her mouth twitching slightly because of her height.
After a while, Theresa climbed back onto the chair.
She was forced to calm down and opened her mouth, but she could no longer find the feeling just now.
The final tone was no longer as excited and powerful as before:
"I knew it, Grandpa, you really have your eyes on Lu Mian."
"Is there any problem with that? He is so outstanding, a perfect man - well, anyway, it's hard for me to control myself." After saying that, Otto's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing an incomprehensible smile.
Seeing this, Theresa tilted her head slightly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
She always felt that something was a little strange. Was the other party's attitude a little too ambiguous?
It doesn't look like the way he used to be when he was making incomprehensible plans to persecute others?
Um......
It's probably an illusion.
Thinking this in her heart, Theresa, who knew that the "business" had not been settled yet, shook her head vigorously, "Lu Mian is nothing special. Anyway, Grandpa, you are not allowed to have any ideas about him!"
"Is that so?" Otto was amused, and with a roll of his eyes he threw out a common but pointed question, "If Lu Mian and Kiana fell into the water, who would you save first?"
Theresa, who originally expected to make a choice between Lu Mian and Kiana, who were equally important, looked embarrassed.
Theresa was indeed in a dilemma.
However, the reason for this dilemma seems to be different.
But Theresa pinched her chin with a wise look on her face and said hesitantly:
"Why didn't you fall into the water, Grandpa?"
After hearing this, Otto fell silent.
She had to admit that, except when facing Lu Mian, there were few times in her life when her emotions fluctuated so violently and she was so speechless.
-----------------
That night.
St. Freya Academy, Kiana's bedroom.
Lu Mian and Qiyana, who had been studying together for most of the day, looked at the clock on the wall, looked at each other, and ended their study time for the day.
Lu Mian was organizing the scattered textbooks on the table in an orderly manner. Kiana watched him, occasionally opening and closing the gel pen in her hand.
I don't know if it's some inexplicable trust issue, or if the base level of goodwill between them is very high.
One is willing to teach and the other is willing to learn, and they cooperate very happily.
The efficiency has also improved a lot compared to when Wuliangta Jizi was teaching.
After learning this and coming to watch the fight for a while, the mature and beautiful Ms. Himeko herself said she had no objection.
"Great! I knew you had the solution, Comrade Xiao Lu. From now on, Kiana, the small-breasted and brainless little idiot, will be in your hands. Come on."
The above are her original words when she expressed her relief.
Oh, by the way, Wuliangta Jizi kissed Lu Mian's cheek lightly before leaving, and then walked away.
It seems calm and peaceful, but in fact, it can cause a huge uproar.
Afterwards, Lu Mian, the person directly involved, had not reacted at all, but Kiana, who was standing next to him, was deeply shocked by this unreserved, enthusiastic and open behavior, and was completely stunned.
Commonly known as numbness.
"Ah? Amian, Aunt Jizi, you two, when?" The girl, who was still not sure what was going on, asked stupidly.
In response, Lu Mian smiled but said nothing.
The main thing is that I don’t know how to answer it.
This little episode ended with Kiana saying something so naive that it made people speechless and inexplicably laughable.
details as follows:
"Then Ah Mian, why don't you... get rid of your period? Then you can just whisper something to me and I won't have to take the make-up exam, hehe."
It must be said that such leaps in thinking are indeed difficult for ordinary people to possess, and even Karin probably can't do it.
Well, back to the topic, Lu Mian sorted out the various textbooks on the table and spoke softly:
"How's it going? Have you remembered everything you learned today? Let me test you."
The implication was obviously that he wanted to give Kiana some quizzes in class that could help build up her confidence.
"Ah?" Kiana stretched her neck reflexively, and then sweat broke out as if from muscle memory. "Is this okay?"
This is probably what the less shameless poor students would look like when they are suddenly called on by the teacher in class.
Taking in Kiana's timid yet cute look, Lu Mian smiled helplessly and shook his head.
Immediately afterwards, I started asking questions without caring whether they were good or not.
Then, a magical scene happened.
Although Kiana was so nervous that her hands and facial features were all flustered, she was able to answer all the questions one by one.
It was as if knowledge and learning were gushing out of her tempting little cherry mouth uncontrollably.
Weird.
Before long, the exciting but not very difficult in-class quiz was over.
Kiana, who hadn't realized what was going on but had answered all the questions correctly, scratched her head and laughed foolishly:
"Is this all over? What? My answer is pretty accurate. Hehe, haha."
At the same time, she vaguely felt that her attitude towards learning and knowledge was no longer filled with disgust and fear as before.
Seeing that the temperature control was successful, Lu Mian's lips twitched and he revealed a satisfied smile, "I said that our Kiana would find nothing difficult to learn as long as she was willing to work hard. She answered all the questions correctly in one go."
"Hehehe, it's still you, 'Teacher' Amien, who taught well." The complacent Kiana did not get carried away and take credit for herself, but said this with a smile.
Her smile is really bright, cheerful and sweet.
Lu Mian quietly admired the desperate situation before him, with tenderness in his eyes.
He said without being overly realistic:
Great progress means the starting point is low; great progress means the starting point is extremely low and other such disappointing words.
In fact, this may not be a bad thing for Kiana. On the contrary, it may be an advantage.
After a while, Lu Mian restrained the relaxed expression on his face, handed the small schoolbag full of books to Qiana, and said seriously:
"Okay, okay, we still have a long way to go in the future. Now that we are happy, what should we do next?
"Our main goal now is not to study, but to let Theresa see your progress and efforts. Coincidentally, I saw that the lowest score among your eight subjects was history, with a zero.
"Under such a 'rare' premise, it's probably an upward progress no matter how we proceed, so let's just focus on this subject, it won't be difficult, right?"
As he was talking, he suddenly noticed that the girl in front of him, who was born with fair skin, blushed without him knowing when.
It is truly a perfect interpretation of what it means to have a face as red as blood.
"Amian, can we change the way we say it?" Kiana rarely acted like a grown-up girl, her face blushing and her voice full of shyness.
This look made Lu Mian laugh so hard, "Hahahaha, you feel shy now? Okay, okay, I will try to avoid saying zero points in the future, is that okay?"
"Hmm." Kiana mumbled in response, obviously still not getting over her shyness.
At the same time, she secretly set a small goal in her heart:
You must secretly become a learned person, as the old saying goes, "When a scholar has not been away for three days, he will be looked at with new eyes"!
When the time comes, a crooked smile will shock my aunt and Aunt Jizi so much that they will sigh that they did not recognize such a great person.
Hey.
Lu Mian on the side silently looked at Kiana who suddenly became happy again for some reason and blinked.
This, what's the situation?
Is your child becoming stupid from studying too much?
He was not very smart to begin with, and now he has become stupid. Does this mean that two negatives equal a positive?
hiss......
Chapter 35: Just Saying that an Old Friend is Coming (Five in One)
Time flies, passing in a flash.
In just a blink of an eye, a week had passed since Lu Mian decided to tutor Kiana and help her overcome the difficult hurdle called "make-up exam".
During this week, Lu Mian basically spent most of the day with Kiana and studied with her, mainly studying history.
Under such circumstances and environment, Kiana's knowledge level is constantly improving and remains stable.
However, if we continue at this pace, it will still be difficult to achieve an "amazing" level until the make-up exam in half a month.
So Lu Mian has been secretly preparing some special measures.
