37: I must give her a good beating.

Soon, Ye Xi took a taxi to a high-end villa complex.

Luxurious villas were built against the mountain, and the peaceful, secluded feeling was captivating.

When she reached the community entrance, a young security guard walked over.

Ye Xi sized him up; the young man was quite handsome.

She secretly marveled, 'As expected of a high-end community, even the security guards are a bit more distinguished than those outside.'

If she hadn't turned into a girl, she might have followed his path later on.

"Hello, handsome, I'm here for tutoring; I have an appointment."

Ye Xi smiled politely.

Ye Xi was well aware that high-end communities generally didn't allow outsiders to enter.

The security guard looked at Ye Xi, slightly stunned, not reacting.

"Handsome."

The security guard didn't react, so Ye Xi gathered her loose hair and called out again.

"Okay, okay, okay, let me check if there's a reservation?"

The security guard, having snapped back to reality, touched his face; after all, staring at someone like that was indeed very awkward.

He was a security guard in a high-end community; if he appeared ill-mannered, it would make their entire community seem...

On the other side.

In a room in the villa.

"Sis, I'm so annoyed! I was planning to go out and play, but Mom found us another tutor."

The boy kicked the wall, looking very helpless.

"Bro, should we scare her a bit and teach her a lesson?"

"I guarantee she'll be so scared this one time, she'll never come back."

The girl next to him, cupping her face, also looked quite helpless.

The boy and girl talking were Pan Ning's two children.

The girl's name was Zhang Jinghe, and the boy's name was Zhang Jingxuan.

"So, how do you plan to scare her?"

Zhang Jingxuan frowned slightly; the memory of him pouring hot water on a tutor last time and getting a severe beating from his parents was still vivid.

Thinking of this, he covered his bottom.

His sister, Zhang Jinghe, smiled: "Don't we have some super glue we secretly bought at home? Let's put it on the chair."

"Sister, now that you mention it, I have another idea." Zhang Jingxuan chuckled.

"What idea?"

"My friend gave me two mice; they're in a box in my school bag. Once we glue the teacher to the chair, we'll put the mice in her skirt."

The siblings exchanged a smile: "Good idea."

Just then, Pan Ning's voice came from outside the room.

"Jinghe, Jingxuan, the tutor Mom found for you is here."

"Come out quickly and greet the teacher."

The beautiful woman knocked on the door, looking quite helpless.

"Mom, I told you, I don't need a tutor."

"This thing is just a waste of money and useless."

The boy and girl still wanted to make a final struggle.

"No, our family isn't short on money. Look at your grades; what have they become?"

"If you two dare to make the teacher angry again, then I'll have no choice but to call your father back. As for how he deals with you, I won't interfere."

Hearing about their father, the two children were a bit scared and quickly opened the room door.

"Mom, if she's too shabby, we definitely won't agree."

"Yes, yes, we're both quite particular about looks."

The boy and girl responded to each other, as if they had planned it.

Pan Ning stroked the children's heads and said with a smile: "The teacher is very pretty; I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

"Hmph, you always say that."

The two children glanced at their mother.

"Ding-dong."

At this moment, their doorbell rang.

"Ding-dong."

Pan Ning tidied her clothes slightly, glared fiercely at the two children as a warning, and then walked towards the door.

After Pan Ning opened the door, she found a graceful young woman standing outside.

Looking at the girl in front of her, she was as beautiful as ever.

She stood there, her white dress like a blooming lily, pure and lovely.

A gentle breeze blew, stirring her hair, which she lightly tucked behind her ear. In that moment, time seemed to stand still, and all the beauty in the world converged upon her.

"Ms. Pan, I'm not late, am I?"

"No, no, you're even a little early," Pan Ning said apologetically.

"Jinghe, Jingxuan, come quickly and greet the teacher."

Pan Ning called out, but the two children again hid in the room, with no one responding.

The two sat down at the table in the living room.

"Ah, my children are a bit resistant to tutoring. I really don't know what to do with them. Please try your best."

Pan Ning shook her head, her face full of frustration, and poured Ye Xi a cup of tea.

"Ms. Pan, you don't need to worry too much."

"Children of this age are all very rebellious. I was pretty much the same when I was little; I almost got sent to boarding school by my father."

Ye Xi took a sip of tea, looking at her with a smile.

It had to be said that the tea was quite delicious; after all, this wasn't the 9.9 yuan, free-shipping tea from her rented room.

"Really?"

Pan Ning looked at the young woman in front of her in surprise, unable to see any mischievousness in her.

The two chatted for a while longer.

Pan Ning glanced at her phone and said with a smile: "Miss Ye, I have some things to deal with at my company. I'll leave the children with you for now."

"If anything urgent comes up, just give me a call."

"Thank you, I'll be mindful."

Ye Xi's delicate and ethereal face showed a slight smile, then she nodded slightly.

After Pan Ning left, Ye Xi looked around, but the two children still hadn't come out.

"Zhang Jinghe, Zhang Jingxuan, the teacher is here to tutor you. Your mom has already left."

Ye Xi walked to the room door and knocked, but there was still no response.

Ye Xi knocked again, and the boy's angry voice came from behind the door.

"Get out of our house right now! We don't need a tutor."

"If you don't get out of our house, we'll beat you up."

Zhang Jingxuan clenched his fists, putting on a very fierce demeanor.

"Exactly! If you don't leave, you'll suffer the consequences."

Zhang Jinghe echoed.

"How about this? You open the door first, and we'll meet. If you're still not satisfied with the teacher, the teacher will leave immediately."

Ye Xi was a bit helpless; if she was kicked out without even meeting them, how would she earn money?

No, no, no!

Earning money was a small matter, but if she couldn't even handle little brats, it would make Ye Xi feel a sense of defeat.

Listening to her sweet voice, Zhang Jingxuan's heart wavered a bit.

Such a sweet voice, she must be incredibly beautiful, right? Should he meet her?

He secretly opened a narrow crack in the door.

The first thing that caught his eye was a pair of pretty white shoes. As his gaze moved upward, a pair of slender calves were exposed, with elegant lines, as if carefully sculpted. Combined with almost perfect curves, it gave off a feeling of both purity and allure, making him almost drool.

Zhang Jingxuan grew more and more curious: what kind of face could possibly match such beautiful legs?

His gaze moved upward again, and Zhang Jingxuan's breathing hitched.

Through the crack in the door, half of the young woman's face quietly came into view.

Her skin was delicate like mutton-fat jade, with a faint pink hue, charming and captivating.

Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, neither thick nor thin, perfectly set on her smooth forehead.

Her eyes were slightly narrowed, with a hint of a smile at the corners, like a pool of autumn water, holding endless spirit and gentleness.

Just this half-face was naturally and purely beautiful.

A fairy sister has descended!

Feeling the stirrings in his body, Zhang Jingxuan quickly closed the door and quietly spoke to his sister.

"Sister, how about we listen to the lesson properly?"

"I think I should be a good student."

Seeing her brother's blushing face, Zhang Jinghe patted his head.

"Are you enchanted by a vixen?"

"But she's really beautiful." Zhang Jingxuan shook his head.

"More beautiful than me?" Zhang Jinghe pointed to herself.

Zhang Jingxuan glanced at her, wanting to say, 'You're not even fit to carry her shoes.'

But fearing his sister's beating, he considered for two seconds and then said.

"Sister, I think you both have your own unique charm."

"Hmph, no matter what, no matter how pretty she is, we have to prank her today."

Zhang Jinghe felt a sense of defeat, as she had always been praised as the most beautiful since childhood.
