Chapter 162 English
Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, casting dappled patterns on Shi Ning's desk.

Shi Ning rubbed her sleepy eyes, glanced at the alarm clock, and saw that it was already 7:30.

He quickly jumped out of bed, shouting as he dressed, "Shi An, get up quickly, we're going to be late!"

Shi An's muffled voice came from the next room: "I know, I know, don't rush me."

Shi Ning quickly finished washing up and went to the kitchen, where she saw Jiang Man preparing breakfast.

Jiang Man smiled gently when she saw him: "Shi Ning, hurry up and eat breakfast. Chen Yu has already gotten up and is waiting for you in the living room."

Shi Ning nodded, quickly walked to the dining table, picked up her chopsticks, and began to wolf down her food.

Chen Yu sat on the sofa in the living room, holding an English book in his hand, looking somewhat absent-minded.

After finishing her breakfast, Shi Ning put down her chopsticks, walked over to Chen Yu, and patted him on the shoulder: "Chen Yu, don't be too nervous, today is just a tutoring session."

Chen Yu looked up and forced a smile: "I know, I'm just a little not used to it."

Shi Ning nodded and looked at Shi An: "Shi An, are you ready? We need to leave."

Shi An came out of the room, carrying her schoolbag, and nodded: "Okay, let's go."

The three of them went out together. Shi Ning and Shi An rode bicycles, while Chen Yu sat on the back of Shi Ning.

Along the way, Shi Ning and Shi An chatted about interesting things at school, with Chen Yu occasionally chiming in, and the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed.

The tutoring center was located on the second floor of an old residential building. It was a small classroom filled with desks and chairs.

The classroom walls were covered with various English words and grammar rules, which looked somewhat worn.

Shi Ning and Shi An led Chen Yu into the classroom, where they saw that many students were already seated.

"You are here."

A gentle voice came from the podium; it belonged to a young female teacher named Ms. Li.

She looked to be around thirty years old, wearing a simple white shirt, her hair tied in a ponytail, and she looked very energetic.

"Hello, Teacher Li."

Shi Ning and Shi An said in unison.

Teacher Li nodded and looked at Chen Yu: "Is this a new student?"

Shi Ning introduced, "Teacher Li, this is Chen Yu. He is also a classmate of ours. He will start taking English lessons with us today."

Teacher Li nodded and smiled at Chen Yu, saying, "Welcome, Chen Yu. Please take a seat over there."

Chen Yu nodded, picked up his schoolbag, and sat down in an empty seat at the back of the classroom.

Shi Ning and Shi An sat in front of him. Shi Ning turned around and smiled at Chen Yu, signaling him not to be nervous.

Ms. Li began the lesson by reviewing the previous lesson's content before starting to explain the new grammar.

Her explanation was detailed and vivid, and Chen Yu listened with great interest. Shi Ning and Shi An also listened attentively, occasionally jotting down key points in their notebooks.

"Okay, now let's do some exercises."

After Teacher Li finished speaking, she began writing the questions on the blackboard. Chen Yu picked up his pen and started working on the questions.

He found that his understanding of English was much better than before, probably due to the influence of Shi Ning and Shi An, and his interest in English also increased.

He worked diligently on each problem, raising his hand to ask Teacher Li whenever he encountered one he didn't understand. "Teacher Li, I don't quite understand this problem."

Chen Yu raised his hand and asked.

Teacher Li came over, looked at the question, and patiently explained to him: "This question tests..."

Listening to Teacher Li's explanation, Chen Yu suddenly understood: "Oh, I see. Thank you, Teacher Li."

Teacher Li smiled and nodded, then returned to the podium to continue the lesson.

The bell rang, and Teacher Li announced the end of get out of class. Shi Ning and Shi An packed their bags and prepared to go home.

Chen Yu also joined them in packing their things. "How are you feeling today?" Shi Ning asked Chen Yu.

Chen Yu nodded: "Not bad, Teacher Li explained it very clearly."

Shi An nodded: "Yes, Teacher Li is very capable. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask us anytime."

Chen Yu smiled and said, "Thank you."

The three of them walked out of the tutoring center together. Shi Ning and Shi An rode their bicycles, with Chen Yu sitting on the back of Shi Ning's bike. Along the way, they chatted about the day's tutoring lessons, and Chen Yu gradually became part of their lives.

When Jiang Man got home, she was already in the kitchen preparing dinner.

Qin Yishen sat on the sofa in the living room. When he saw them return, he nodded and said, "You're back. How was your tutoring today?"

Shi Ning and Shi An answered in unison, "Not bad."

Qin Yishen looked at Chen Yu: "Chen Yu, how are you feeling?"

Chen Yu nodded: "That's good, thank you Uncle Qin."

Qin Yishen smiled and said, "Don't be so polite. From now on, consider this your home."

Chen Yu nodded, feeling a warm feeling in his heart.

After dinner, Shi Ning and Shi An took Chen Yu to the study and began to tutor him in other subjects.

Shi Ning is in charge of mathematics, and Shi An is in charge of Chinese.

Chen Yu listened attentively, asking questions whenever he encountered something he didn't understand.

How do I use this formula?

Chen Yu pointed to a formula in the math book and asked.

Shi Ning patiently explained to him: "This formula is used to... Look at this example, it's used like this."

Chen Yu nodded and took notes carefully.

Shi An also explained the Chinese text to Chen Yu: "The theme of this text is..."

Chen Yu listened with great interest, nodding occasionally to show his understanding.

Time flies, and it was already nine o'clock at night.

Jiang Man called out from the living room, "Shi Ning, Shi An, it's time to rest."

Shi Ning and Shi An packed up their books and said to Chen Yu, "Let's call it a day. We'll continue tomorrow."

Chen Yu nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you."

Shi Ning smiled and said, "No need to be so polite. We are classmates and friends."

Shi An nodded: "That's right, if there's anything you don't understand in the future, just ask us."

Chen Yu felt a warmth in his heart; he felt he had finally found a warm home.

Although his biological mother is missing and his biological father died due to alcoholism, he gained a better family.

The next morning, the three of them went to the tutoring class again.

In the tutoring classroom, sunlight streamed through the dappled windows, casting shadows on the floor, and a faint smell of ink filled the air.

Teacher Li stood on the podium, holding a piece of paper in her hand, with an excited smile on her face.

"Classmates, I have some good news to tell you."

Teacher Li's clear and loud voice attracted everyone's attention.

Shi Ning, Shi An, and Chen Yu sat in the back row of the classroom. The three of them glanced at each other, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Shi Ning asked in a low voice, "Shi An, do you think Teacher Li has some good news to say?"

Shi An shook her head and replied in a low voice, "I don't know either, but it looks important."
