Shen Jun saw Wen Nian’s sly smile and didn’t ask further. The two of them started eating.

Wen Nian turned to Shen Jun and inquired, “Shen Jun, do you happen to know any trustworthy tutors in the capital? I’m considering hiring one to ensure I don’t fall behind during my time with the production team.”

When Shen Jun heard the question, his heart skipped a beat. “Where is the time and exact location of the tutoring?”

Wen Nian had reached out to Xu Chang a few days ago, and he had recently signed a contract with a school to serve as the filming location.

Wen Nian disclosed the name of the filming location. “I don’t have the exact address, but the filming will take place at Qingyang Normal School in the capital. The hotel where they will be staying is also in close proximity. The tutoring sessions will primarily take place in the evenings, although there may be some variations. Hence, I’m hoping for the teacher’s availability during the period from January to February next year.”

Shen Jun playfully asked, “Not only would the teacher have to pay a visit, but they would also have to match your schedule Your requirements are quite demanding. So, what price are you planning to offer?”

Wen Nian adjusted the price based on the market rates in Hai City. “How about 200 yuan per hour, for three hours a day?”

Shen Jun raised his eyebrows in response. “With that price, you can only afford regular teachers. The university’s location is a bit remote, situated in a new development area with few middle schools nearby. Moreover, most experienced tutors are located in the old city area. Considering the travel expenses and commuting time, it’s already quite good to be able to hire ordinary teachers.”

Upon hearing Shen Jun’s explanation, Wen Nian realized that 200 yuan might not be sufficient to attract qualified tutors. She asked, “Then, how much would be a reasonable price?”

Shen Jun extended four fingers. “At least double.”

Wen Nian understood Xu Chang’s financial situation and wanted to help him save some money. However, realizing the need for a higher price, she sighed slightly and said, “Alright, we’ll find someone at that price.”

Shen Jun chuckled and suggested an alternative. “You have other options. You can treat me instead. For the sake of being your deskmate, just cover my round-trip travel expenses. I’ll fully cooperate with your schedule, or I can even offer my tutoring services for free.”

Wen Nian thought that Shen Jun was joking and smiled in response. “That sounds like a good deal. Not only can I cover the taxi fare, but I can also provide you with food and accommodation.”

Shen Jun nodded. “Alright, you said it yourself. When are you joining the production crew?”

Wen Nian was stunned. “Are you serious?!”

Shen Jun frowned slightly and raised his eyebrows in response to Wen Nian’s comment. “Do you think I’m joking or teasing you? Or are you trying to tease me?”

Afraid of another misunderstanding, Wen Nian quickly shook her head and clarified, “I’m grateful for your willingness to help, but don’t you still have school in Hai City? The flight from Hai City to the capital takes over an hour. I can cover your transportation expenses by car, but it’s not feasible for you to fly back and forth every day.”

Shen Jun leaned closer to Wen Nian, his gaze focused on her eyes. He asked in a deliberate manner, “Do you think my grades will be affected if I study in Hai City or the capital?”

Seeing Shen Jun leaning closer, Wen Nian felt her cheeks blush, and she gently shook her head in response.

Seeing Wen Nian’s reaction, Shen Jun couldn’t help but feel amused at her blushing cheeks. He sighed inwardly, thinking that some things only got more interesting with time. He smiled and said softly, “Then it’s settled.”

What do you mean it’s settled! Wen Nian came back to her senses and looked at Shen Jun. After thinking for a while, she asked curiously, “Why arc you offering to help me with my tutoring for free?”

Shen Jun’s heart skipped a beat. He had mentioned being in a hurry earlier, but now he realized that his uncle had advised him to ask for something significant in return. He didn’t want to come across as having ulterior motives that might scare Wen Nian away.

Shen Jun quickly tried to salvage the situation. “I need your help with something important, and I believe you arc the only person who can assist me.” Wen Nian hurriedly asked, “What favor?”

Shen Jun maintained a serious expression as he responded, “I can’t disclose the details at the moment, but rest assured, it’s something you are capable of handling.”

Wen Nian trusted Shen Jun. And so, when she heard this, she didn’t ask anymore questions. “Alright. The exact time to join the production crew hasn’t been decided. I will tell you when I receive the notice.”

When the tutoring arrangement was settled, Wen Nian felt relieved. She preferred being tutored by Shen Jun over anyone else, and she couldn’t help but feel a secret sense of happiness.

On Saturday, Shen Jun asked Wen Nian to help braise two pig heads. He then took them to Zhao Wu’s house at night.

When Zhao Wu opened the door and saw Shen Jun, he teased, “What a rare guest. I thought I would have to visit you to get these two pig heads.”

Shen Jun entered and put the braised pig head into the kitchen.. When he found that Zhao Wu was the only one at home, he asked curiously, “Where’s Sister Bai Ling? How’s the effect of that wooden sign?”
