"Who's embarrassed now? It's just him giving me a tutoring session, he's acting like he's doing me a huge favor, it's not like I was begging him! Besides, why should I invite him to dinner? I don't have a job or money yet, I'm not treating him!" Tianxin snapped, giving Chen Yiran a venomous glance. Then she pulled her hand from her mother's grip and darted off to her own seat.
Tianxin's mother's face turned as unsightly as if she had swallowed a fly...
"Well... this child... she's probably waiting for her grades these days... Feeling a bit... um, upset. Don't take it personally..." Tianxin's mother said to Chen Yiran with an awkward smile, unsure what else she could say.
Tianxin was usually a good girl who listened to her mother. Why was she treating Chen Yiran like an enemy today, when she used to rave about how helpful his tutoring was?...
Tianxin's mother was baffled beyond belief.
