The anchor I was supposed to meet turned out to be my student.

Startled by my outburst, Xu Lehan huddled in her chair, grumbling, "Why did you yell so loudly..."

Forget about continuing to talk to her, I've even lost my appetite. She herself is indifferent, so why should I care about her? I'd be an idiot to keep getting involved in her affairs!

I picked up my plate and walked outside. After pouring out the food and getting some fresh air, I calmed down. It just goes to show that you really can't be an educator without patience. Otherwise, you can easily get yourself into a heart attack from getting so angry. I couldn't help but admire how amazing elementary school teachers are. They can handle such naughty students. Their mindset is truly at a high level.

But I didn't expect that Xu Lehan would also eat and follow me, walking next to me.

"Teacher, are you angry?"

Are you blind?

"You're really angry..."

Xu Lehan suddenly quickened her pace and blocked my way. With a big smile on her face, she said, "Teacher, I'll take you somewhere, and I promise you won't be angry anymore."

"Where?" I frowned.

Xu Lehan chuckled mysteriously and said, "That's my secret sanctuary~"

Then she tiptoed and whispered in my ear, "Aren't you excited? Hehe~"

"Idiot..."

She didn't seem to care what I called her; she just walked ahead excitedly, looking impatient, like... a thirsty girl who hadn't seen her boyfriend for three months dragging him to a hotel?

I want to see what I don't know about this school where I've spent eight years.

After walking for about ten minutes, she led me deep into a garden. There was a stone table there, and the tall trees overhead cast long shadows, making it very cool. Occasionally, a gentle breeze would blow by. Just as Xu Lehan had said, my previously depressed mood instantly improved a lot. However, I have to say something about this place…

"Ta-da! This is Lehan's secret garden! How's that? Are you sullen now?" Xu Lehan excitedly introduced the place to me.

"That's it?"

"Yeah, nobody ever visits here. I'm probably the only one who knows about this place, though now there are two of us. You can't tell anyone else, okay? Hehe!"

"..."

Xu Lehan's roaring scared me so much.

It's not only cool and quiet here, it's truly a rare and wonderful place, but there's a harsh truth I must tell her.

"People actually come here quite often..."

Xu Lehan's smile immediately froze.

"No, that can't be. There's no one here every day when I skip class to come here."

Good heavens, so that's where they were hiding when they skipped class!

"And what about at night?"

Xu Lehan fluttered her adorable eyelashes, speechless.

"Actually, people might come every night, and it has become an unspoken rule that it's first-come, first-served, and those who come later must leave on their own and not disturb them."

Xu Lehan found it hard to accept that her secret garden, which she had always guarded, was being secretly violated every night.

"You're lying, how do you know?"

"To be honest, this is a well-known dating spot for couples, and it's an unwritten rule that it's first-come, first-served."

Don't ask me how I know, the answer is love. I loved...

"Why are they on a date somewhere else? Why come here in the middle of the night, in the pitch black? How boring..."

So you're still too naive...

"No, I still don't believe it. I'll have to crouch behind the flower bushes tonight and observe."

"No, please don't do that." You'll scare the boy to the point of having a physical disorder.

"why?"

"If you ask me again, I'll kill you right here!"

"Awooo~" she tried to intimidate me.

"Idiot..."

……

In the end, I wasted a precious lunch break and still didn't make any progress. I had originally decided to stop caring about Xu Lehan's matter and just give her a second warning and expel or postpone her studies, but it's all that damned Wenrou's fault. I still want her to graduate normally. Who told her to look so much like my younger sister Xin Ning...

Near the end of the workday in the afternoon, I took the initiative to call my good son, Liao Zhengyang, and told him about my thoughts over the past few nights, which was about starting a business. Of course, it doesn't quite qualify as starting a business. I plan to collaborate with him to create online learning courses. With my abilities, I can probably cover courses from elementary school to university, but the focus will mainly be on math, physics, and chemistry. Although online courses are not yet the mainstream learning channel for everyone, in the future, with the increasing prevalence of the internet, online paid learning will definitely be comparable to, or even complement, traditional offline classroom learning.

Liao Zhengyang and his girlfriend Li Xiner are both skilled in video shooting, editing, and online production, so the three of them can work together to produce online courses more efficiently.

Although my idea is good, it is still an immature idea, and many conditions are not yet met, such as the location for recording online courses, how to obtain dissemination platforms, how to advertise in the real environment, and so on. My idea does not actually require much financial cost in the production stage, but more manpower cost, but the promotion stage may require a lot of money.

Li Xin'er strongly agreed with my idea because she didn't want her boyfriend Liao Zhengyang to actually venture into the no-man's-land. It's a gamble with one's life that one can't afford to take. If our idea can really succeed, and we can even establish an offline tutoring institution in the future, then the income we can earn will not be worse than him venturing into the no-man's-land, and it can even become a lifelong career.

Why did I choose this idea? It's because I considered the resources around me. Besides the three of us, I had a plan for the crucial aspect of publicity. First of all, Ye Zhi works in entertainment, so she must have many advertising opportunities. I can use her to advertise for me at the normal market price. If I let others advertise, they would have to significantly increase the price for our fledgling brand or advertise on websites with low traffic. Of course, I would also have to ask Ye Zhi for her consent.

Besides Ye Zhi, I also hope that Lu Xiaojun and Bi Antong can help me advertise, even if it's just a short message. I don't know if they will agree to help...

As for offline promotion, I'll have to shamelessly hand out flyers near the primary and secondary schools in the vicinity...

I set up free online courses in the early stages to let customers experience the effects first, and then I will set up a paid model later.

Before creating the online course, I needed to confirm that the promotional aspect was feasible. So Liao Zhengyang and I each looked into our own networks that we could utilize beforehand, and it wasn't too late to start creating the course.

This is just an immature idea, but we should try it. It doesn't matter if we fail; we can always try again. I'm not a great entrepreneur, and I don't expect to succeed on the first try, because I know I can't possibly consider everything.

(Don't underestimate this entrepreneurial idea! In the early days, many people made a lot of money in the online paid knowledge industry, some even starting with just a small team. I don't know the hardships they faced or their specific operating methods. I hope some experts can join the group to guide me in this area of ​​entrepreneurship. Otherwise, I can only write a rough draft, because this is a harem romance novel, and getting close to the heroines is the main theme of this article!!)

Chapter 5, page 126: The Little Fox Spirit

After ending my call with Liao Zhengyang, Luo Yao called at just the right time, reminding me not to forget my promise to visit her home tonight. I had agreed too quickly yesterday without thinking it through, but now, thinking about it carefully, going there would undoubtedly be like a lamb entering a tiger's den, facing a dragon's den and a tiger's lair. I might not be a virgin anymore when I come back...

After thinking about it, I decided to bring Hua Xinning along. Having her nemesis Hua Xinning there should be able to restrain her to some extent.

After get off work, Director Jiang brought Jiang Yan to my office right on time. Director Jiang took out a beautifully packaged box and gave it to me as a thank-you gift. This thank-you was, of course, in various senses, perhaps referring to the tutoring or to the fact that I took care of her daughter when he was on a business trip the day before.

"Actually, Yan Yi suggested buying this gift herself, and she also chose it," Director Jiang said.

I glanced at Jiang Yanyi, who had just put down her schoolbag, with surprise. She pouted and complained, "Dad, I told you not to say that..."

I smiled and accepted the gift without even knowing what was in the box. Since it was chosen by Jiang Yanyi, it probably wasn't anything too expensive, so it was reasonable to accept it. After all, Director Jiang had given me tutoring fees, which I refused. I insisted on waiting for Jiang Yanyi's grades to come out before discussing the tutoring fees. Giving me a gift would put Director Jiang at ease.

After Director Jiang left, I teased Jiang Yan, "Why did you suddenly decide to buy me a gift? Is it to thank me for taking you home that night?"

Jiang Yan kicked me violently and said, "He who eats another's food is bound to do his bidding. Don't forget to tell my dad what I promised him later."

Tsk, so they were trying to bribe me so I could convince Director Jiang to let her become an artist trainee...

I put the gift down, not caring what was inside, and said to her, "Don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you, but at the same time, you can't break your promise to study hard."

Jiang Yan had no choice but to give in and obediently took out the physics textbook she was supposed to tutor that day...

……

"Think again about which knowledge points you should use to solve this problem."

"I really don't know..."

"You're incredibly stupid! Of course, you should use Newton's Third Law: forces act in pairs!"

"Why is it that forces act in pairs? Can't they act alone? Just like not everyone in this world has a partner; there are plenty of single people, like you..."

"You're talking nonsense!"

"Then why do you think so?"

I doubt you'll find the answer to why forces act in pairs, no matter how much you search. That's because it's a law!

"I'll ask Newton about this for you another day..."

"Tch, turns out you're not that smart after all, and you even called me stupid..."

An hour passed, and the tutoring went fairly smoothly, except that she always asked some of the most annoying, nitpicky questions that teachers hate the most. I felt like spanking her... I realized that Jiang Yanyi is actually not stupid. She just didn't study hard before, which is why her grades were so bad. So I need to take my promise to her even more seriously.

After today's tutoring session, Jiang Yan sat on the sofa as if she had been liberated, swinging her legs clad in white stockings. They were particularly eye-catching, and I couldn't help but glance at them. Her long legs, covered by white stockings up to her knees, were small and well-proportioned, but not sickly thin; rather, they were rather plump...

Suddenly, the review couldn't continue because the owner of the legs shook off their little leather shoes, crossed their legs on the sofa, and even covered them with a cushion so I couldn't look anymore...

Jiang Yan gave me a disdainful look, and mumbled something under her breath. Judging from the shape of her mouth, it seemed like she was saying, "She doesn't even spare the legs of middle school students."

"Remember this when my dad comes to pick me up later!"

“It’s not the right time yet. I’ll bring it up with your father when your grades have improved significantly in the next exam. He’ll be more accepting that way. After all, with your current grades, he won’t let you do anything else.”

When Jiang Yan was disappointed, her mouth drooped like a duck's...

"However, I can take you to meet someone later..." I think I don't need to bring Hua Xinning anymore. With Jiang Yanyi going along, I believe Luo Yao won't dare to mess around with me.

Jiang Yan was taken aback at first, then exclaimed with delight, "Is it Luo Yao?"

I nodded.

"You're really not lying to me?"

I shook my head.

Then Jiang Yan smiled like a 500-pound fat man, and even jumped off the sofa to hug my arm, showing no sign of disgust at me looking at her legs.

"Uncle Hua, oh no, Brother Hua, you're so wonderful! I love you to death!"

Seeing Jiang Yan leaning her head on my arm, looking excited, I sighed helplessly. Why is it that I avoid Luo Yao like the plague, while others treat her like a goddess...?

Let's set off now!

Jiang Yan let go of my arm and started packing her schoolbag, looking impatient.

"You should at least tell your dad first..."

……

After Director Jiang returned, Jiang Yanyi told him about wanting to go with me to meet her idol. At first, Director Jiang disagreed, but Jiang Yanyi promised that she would study hard after meeting him. I also praised Jiang Yanyi for her recent academic progress, so Director Jiang reluctantly agreed.

Jiang Yan and I took a taxi to the neighborhood address Luo Yao had given us. On the way, Jiang Yan was so excited that she couldn't calm down. First, she took out a mirror to tidy her appearance, and then she chattered and asked me for all sorts of information.

How did you meet Luo Yao?

"She used to be my neighbor, and we had a pretty good relationship."
