My skill tree increases every day.

Lin Yu got the dice one last time before the game ended.

At this point, two players have already reached the finish line with three pieces.

Lin Yu and Sun Mengli.

Sun Mengli's good fortune was undeniable; her piece was closest to the finish line. Her last piece was only two squares away from the finish line.

Poor Mo Wenxue still had one chess piece that hadn't even taken off. Because singing took so long, the two of them had even been exempted from the punishment of taking off.

But the real winners aren't those who rely solely on luck and probability. Only those who can truly control the outcome can achieve victory.

Only the one holding the dice can advance!

Holding the winning die, Lin Yu's last piece was only three squares away from the finish line.

Lin Yu flicked his fingers lightly.

three o'clock.

No one else could stop Lin Yu from achieving final victory! The final winner has been determined.

Lin Yu and Chen Shuyan won!

Lin Yu reached out to take the last chess piece and took three steps forward.

The last piece stopped on the last square before the finish line.

Something's not right. Something's definitely not right.

Lin Yu fell into deep thought. There were still three squares left to the finish line. I rolled a three with perfect accuracy. Why was I still one square short?

broken!

If you forget that there are three squares between the two squares, it will take four steps to reach the finish line!

Lin Yu's upper body fell backward limply.

……

In the end, Lin Yu won.

Sun Mengli failed to capitalize on Lin Yu's momentary lapse in judgment, and her last piece failed to reach the finish line. This time, Lin Yu made no mistakes, steadily rolling a single point to secure the victory.

It's almost 10 o'clock.

For Wu Jing, who doesn't have much of a nightlife, this was already quite late.

Although Lin Yu didn't care about the time, the others still had to consider the curfew hours.

"It's about time we got ready to head back."

"How will you get back?"

"My bike is still there, I need to ride it back."

Lin Yu pointed to the parking area not far away, where his electric scooter was still parked.

"Then be careful."

"Lin Yu".

Just as Lin Yu turned to leave, Chen Shuyan suddenly called out to him.

Mo Wenxue and Sun Mengli turned their heads instantly, pricking up their ears, afraid of missing any news.

Is there going to be a result?

The two were very much looking forward to it.

"Um... give me your clothes, I'll wash them for you."

Chen Shuyan's words left the two, who had been filled with high expectations, utterly disappointed.

You suddenly stopped someone and said that?

Lin Yu turned around and looked at Chen Shuyan, a hint of doubt appearing in his eyes.

Chen Shuyan, are you awake?

"Forget it."

The look in Chen Shuyan's eyes dimmed.

Lin Yu tugged at his white T-shirt: "This is the only shirt I have. If I give it to you, do you expect me to go back shirtless?"

"Oh, that's true." Chen Shuyan tapped her cheek with her fingertip, feeling that Lin Yu's words made a lot of sense.

Snapped!

Mo Wenxue and Sun Mengli simultaneously slapped their foreheads, unsure how to describe the scene unfolding before them.

I don't know who to say for a moment.

Shouldn't you be making a romantic and heartfelt confession at a time like this?

Why does it feel like being in a laundromat?

The two exchanged a glance and immediately realized that they had wasted their time tonight.

……

The night passed, and Saturday arrived.

From the morning onwards, Xuanxuan's mother kept sending messages to Lin Yu.

They kept asking Lin Yu what he liked to eat and what he couldn't eat.

They even went so far as to subtly inquire about Lin Yu's life, such as whether he had a girlfriend and what kind of girls he liked.

But they didn't discuss Xuanxuan's study arrangements at all.

Although those questions were a bit off-topic, it's normal for parents to want to know more about the teachers, right?

However, judging from the questions she asked, Xuanxuan's mother seems to have a lot of trust in Lin Yu's teaching abilities.

Feeling trusted, Lin Yu carefully prepared for the afternoon lesson he would be teaching Xuanxuan, eagerly anticipating the class.

After a busy morning, Lin Yu looked at the several pages of teaching plans he had prepared and nodded in satisfaction.

It is absolutely worth the salary and trust of the parents.

After making these preparations, Lin Yu replied to Xuanxuan's mother: Sister, I'm ready. I'll be there on time this afternoon.

Xuanxuan's mom replied quickly: Okay! I'll be waiting for you!

Before setting off, Lin Yu specially prepared some snacks and stickers as a reward for Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan is a lovely child. Although she is a bit playful, she learns things very quickly. Small rewards can better motivate her.

Since Xuanxuan's mother trusts him so much, he needs to produce some results.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the residential complex, one could see the difference in the upscale neighborhoods. The gate was closed, and the security guard insisted that Lin Yu specify which building and apartment he was going to before allowing him to enter.

Lin Yu had followed others in last time, which allowed him to get through this hurdle undetected.

After taking the elevator, Lin Yu arrived at Xuanxuan's house.

I rang the doorbell, and the door opened quickly.

Xuanxuan's mother stood at the door, smiling as she looked at Lin Yu.

She wore a blue fitted dress, the carefully tailored fabric outlining the beautiful, full curves of her body, and her beautiful feet, clad in thick black pantyhose, were paired with lounge sandals.

Apart from her neck and cuffs, she didn't reveal any extra skin, yet she exuded mature feminine charm in every way.

"Ms. Lin is here! Ms. Chen isn't here today, is she?"

"Sister, Chen Shuyan has something to do, so if you don't mind, I'll take care of everything from now on."

"Okay, okay."

Xuanxuan's mother smiled, her eyes crinkling.

"Come in, come in! Don't stand outside, come in and sit down."

She stepped aside and led Lin Yu into the house. A fruit plate with cut fruit was already placed on the living room table.

Xuanxuan's mother is so warm and hospitable.

"Come on, have some fruit."

Leading Lin Yu to sit down in the living room, Xuanxuan's mother warmly greeted him.

"Sister, you're too kind."

Xuanxuan's mother smiled and patted Lin Yu's hand: "Don't mention it, it's nothing. I'll need your help with many things in the future! You can't refuse me then."

"Definitely, definitely."

Xuanxuan's mother sat next to Lin Yu, her legs crossed, her skirt sliding up with her movements to reveal her ankles, which were covered in thick black stockings and had a smooth, delicate curve.

"Xuanxuan, come out quickly, Teacher Lin is here!"

Xuanxuan's mother shouted into the house.

"Ms. Kobayashi!"

The little girl ran out with her two pigtails bobbing.

"Hello, Xuanxuan."

Xuanxuan stepped forward, took Lin Yu's hand, and led him to the study.

At this moment, Xuanxuan was nowhere near as shy as she had been when they first met.

"Teacher, teacher, what are we having for dinner today?"
