After dinner, Lin Baici was about to wash the dishes, but Gu Qingxiang stopped him.
"I’ll wash the dishes. You go over what you learned earlier, I’m going to check on you later,"
Gu Qingxiang didn’t allow Lin Baici to refuse, and she actually liked doing these household chores.
Lin Baici entered the study and found a piece of paper on the desk. It was a study plan that Gu Qingxiang had devised based on his talents.
"This much material?"
Lin Baici noticed there was no ’tutoring’ on Tuesday and Friday nights because he had classes at school, but the rest of the time, including Saturday and Sunday, he had ’tutoring’ every evening, for three hours each session.
Clearly, Gu Qingxiang had looked over Lin Baici’s class schedule.
Lin Baici felt a tingle in his scalp. Although the feeling of staying with Gu Qingxiang was quite nice, wasn’t this study plan a bit too strenuous?
As a God Hunter, his future was already set, and the compensation was quite generous; he no longer needed to gnaw on textbooks .
Wouldn’t it be more delightful to spend all this time enjoying the sweet life of a college student?
Gu Qingxiang finished the chores and came over. Seeing Lin Baici deeply engrossed in his books without playing with his phone, she nodded in satisfaction and then sat down beside him.
"Start dictation of the words!"
Gu Qingxiang wasted no words and directly transformed into a home tutor. This tutoring session lasted an hour and a half.
Lin Baici was completely flustered.
Since graduating from high school, he hadn’t worked this hard; although he could bear the physical and mental strain, psychologically, he was slightly upset.
Gu Qingxiang put down the textbook: "What’s wrong? Do you think I’m too strict?"
"No," Lin Baici quickly shook his head. "I just think that I should get some reward for being so diligent?" Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs noᴠelfire.net
After saying this, Lin Baici regretted it.
She was spending her personal time teaching him Goryeo language without charging a fee, and he still expected a reward?
Just as Lin Baici was about to apologize, Gu Qingxiang spoke, "What reward do you want?"
Gu Qingxiang looked at Lin Baici, the soft light of the desk lamp casting a gentle glow on his face, making him look as tempting as a piece of chocolate. This compelled Gu Qingxiang to swallow unconsciously.
She’s really giving a reward?
Lin Baici didn’t know how to respond for a moment.
Perhaps because she was at home, Gu Qingxiang didn’t treat Lin Baici like a stranger and dressed casually. She wore a loose, long woolen sweater with a deep V-neckline and the hem covered her thighs, underneath gray leggings, and she shuffled in a pair of slippers.
[Devour her! Great nourishment!]
Lin Baici instinctively wrapped his arms around Gu Qingxiang’s waist. "Qingxiang, be my girlfriend?"
Actually, Gu Qingxiang was quite pretty and had a good figure. She just didn’t know how to dress up, and she often wore a pair of large glasses that covered half of her face, completely hiding her actually very expressive eyes.
Gu Qingxiang shook her head.
Seeing this, Lin Baici felt an inexplicable sense of loss. He released his hold on her and bowed his head, twirling a pen unconsciously.
Gu Qingxiang sighed seeing Lin Baici and leaned in to plant a kiss on his left cheek.
Lin Baici didn’t understand.
Wasn’t she refusing to be his girlfriend?
"As long as you perform well, I can give you small rewards , but let’s not bring up the topic of being my boyfriend again!"
Gu Qingxiang explained.
Lin Baici was totally confused.
Gu Qingxiang put her right index finger up to her lips, making a shushing gesture.
"Actually, I have a job now with a very high salary!"
Lin Baici thought Gu Qingxiang had refused because of job concerns, so she could easily resign, since she hadn’t been a counselor for many days.
Lin Baici said this with great confidence.
"I don’t need anyone to support me!"
Gu Qingxiang’s reply was cold, but Lin Baici’s declaration pleased her. So, she reached out and hugged Lin Baici’s head to her chest.
Here’s a small reward.
Lin Baici was completely bewildered.
He suddenly realized that he didn’t understand this woman at all. He had thought she was a naive country girl just starting her job, introverted, not good at conversation, not knowing how to dress up. Although she was a counselor, she was practically the same as a senior student since she had just joined the workforce.
But now, Gu Qingxiang’s values seemed quite strange?
But the touch on his face felt really good!
Lin Baici was somewhat captivated.
[Why bother thinking so much? Just devour her!]
The Eater God suggested.
At nine o’clock, Gu Qingxiang ended the tutoring session and went to the kitchen to peel a fruit. "Go back early, don’t wander around, get up on time for class and don’t keep skipping,"
Lin Baici responded affirmatively and ate the apple as he went downstairs. Once outside, he looked back up at the building.
With his vision, he could see Gu Qingxiang standing on the balcony of the living room, obviously watching him.
The neighborhood was close to Haijing Polytechnic. Lin Baici strolled into the campus, where late at night, many couples were leisurely strolling around.
In the distance, the lights were still on in the classrooms and study rooms.
If he hadn’t become a God Hunter, he too would be among those studying in those rooms, striving for a good job after graduation.
Lin Baici walked into Dormitory Building 2, and he was immediately greeted by a mix of smells—sweat, stinky socks, instant noodles, and more.
Lin Baici rubbed his nose.
After devouring a God raw in the museum God’s ruins, as Lin Baici gradually digested it, his physique began to strengthen further, including his sense of smell, with all his senses being heightened once more.
