Chapter 590: Unconventional Lessons

Book Chapter 590: The Kid Is Too Teachable (Update 3)

What the heck, that’s some serious yandere behavior… Xiao Yu just lost his cool.

Why call Gan Shaomei that ‘bird’?

Because ‘bird’ is a symbol of lowliness.

Ever heard the tale of the bird and the fish?

One version goes: The greatest distance in the world isn’t between life and death but when I stand before you and you don’t know I love you!

Another says: It’s not that you don’t know I love you when I’m in front of you—it’s that even though you love each other, you can’t be together!

That really pierced the heart. Then, launching into a story, Xiao Yu stared straight into Gan Shaomei’s eyes.

“Officer, your time is nearly up.”

Gan Shaomei said in a cold, almost ‘friendly’ tone.

Xiao Yu turned and left the Interrogation Room.

He needed a moment to clear his head.

The restroom is a truly magical place.

Not only can it clear your mind—the mirror makes you look better, singing gives you a surround-sound vibe, and a shower sparks wild inspirations… game breakthroughs have happened right there on the toilet…

When you’re in a bad mood, after doing your business you can even glare at the toilet and say, “Eat shit already!”

Then dash off to the next toilet!

So yes, the restroom is really magical!

So magical that just as Xiao Yu sat down, his unlucky apprentice burst in.

Not even approaching him directly!

Xiao Yu: ???

“Master, I have a question,” Wang Cheng said shyly.

Xiao Yu: ???

“Master…” Wang Cheng began to ask.

“Damn it!”

Xiao Yu couldn’t hold it in and, glaring fiercely, shouted, “You idiot! I’m in the middle of taking a dump—get out!”

Wang Cheng fled.

Damn, how did I end up with such a moronic apprentice… Xiao Yu shook his head, laughing and crying at the same time, inwardly fuming.

After leaving the restroom, Wang Cheng was actually waiting outside.

“Are you out of your mind?”

Xiao Yu glared at his unlucky apprentice. “If you’re sick, go to the hospital immediately.”

“Master, it isn’t that I’m sick—there’s an emergency.”

Wang Cheng looked frantic. “It’s just that Yan Yu Jie is really mad at me. I don’t know what to do!”

“Why is she mad?”

Xiao Yu was left utterly speechless.

“I texted her to ask if she wanted to go out for dinner tonight.”

Wang Cheng muttered, “Yan Yu Jie said she discovered her period had started… I asked her how she figured it out… and she said she used an 8x telescope to notice… then she just ignored me!”

Xiao Yu: …

What a genius—why hadn’t I realized my apprentice had some potential?

If he had any sense, he wouldn’t have been single forever, right?

Hopeless. Next life, pick a better lane!

“Master, you have to help me.”

Wang Cheng pleaded, “Help me think of a way to break down the wall between Yan Yu Jie and me.”

“What wall?”

Xiao Yu’s expression turned bizarre. “What are you trying to break… are you sure it isn’t a membrane?”

“Break it?”

Wang Cheng looked foolish. “Yes, yes, membrane. Master, how do you break it?”

With a hint of venom, Xiao Yu grinned, “You know, I’ll never forget how my classmate used his shattered Vivi phone to charge an Apple user girl 998.”

“Damn!”

Wang Cheng looked like he’d seen a ghost. “Is that really how desperate puppy love gets?”

“Puppy love?”

Xiao Yu sneered, “Do you even know what ‘puppy love’ really means? Lowering your dignity to grovel—I’ve already told you, overusing that term just makes you look pathetic and shows you have no girl by your side.”

“Uh…” Wang Cheng was stunned again.

“Puppy love started in 2016. It means when someone, despite having no affection returned, still abandons their pride to cling desperately.”

Xiao Yu snorted, “The meaning is obvious: if someone doesn’t like you and you still grovel without dignity or limits, that’s true puppy love.”

“But didn’t you just say…”

Wang Cheng was confused.

“Then do you know if that girl even liked my classmate?”

Xiao Yu replied calmly, “After graduation, they got married. They were the first couple in our class to tie the knot!”

“Uh!” Wang Cheng was stunned.

How did it come to this?

“Do you think all girls are fools, unable to tell who treats them right?”

······· Please send flowers ········

Xiao Yu asked his apprentice very earnestly, “Imagine there are two girls. One is stunning but demands constant pampering to stay by your side, while the other is plain yet gives her whole heart to you, even saving the best bite for you. Which one would you choose? And if you flip the roles, what do you think a girl would choose?”

Wang Cheng fell silent.

It seemed he finally understood.

“So you’re not calling someone a puppy lover anymore?”

Xiao Yu patted Wang Cheng on the shoulder. “Sometimes love isn’t about words or groveling—it’s about exchanging hearts. If she likes you and you like her, give her your heart; she’ll return it naturally. But if she doesn’t, then offering your heart is nothing but true puppy love. Got it?”

……

“Got it!” Wang Cheng nodded.

This time, he really understood.

“Now, do you know what to do?”

Xiao Yu smiled warmly at his hapless apprentice.

“I got it.”

Wang Cheng grinned foolishly, “I’m off to buy some painkillers for Yan Yu Jie so her period doesn’t hurt as much.”

“Mm.”

Xiao Yu nodded with a smile, “The kid is indeed teachable.”

“By the way, Master…”

Wang Cheng gave an awkward laugh, “Do you think I should also get some hemostatic medicine for Yan Yu Jie? Maybe that would cure her period altogether?”

Xiao Yu: (face palm)

So, did my half-hour of posing just go to waste?

What kind of apprentice route is this?

Not about dazzling the world with flair, but straightforward honesty?

Then why don’t you take Yan Yu Jie to the hospital for suture surgery?

That way, you’d save on medicine costs later!

Feeling utterly drained, Xiao Yu clutched his chest and waved goodbye to Wang Cheng.

Continuing the conversation any longer might have gotten him hauled off.

At the door of the Interrogation Room, Xiao Yu checked the time.

There were still 8 hours left.

Cooperating with the police in their investigation means that if no crime was committed, 24 hours is the maximum detention period.

Without evidence, they let you go immediately.

Xiao Yu pushed open the Interrogation Room’s door and stepped back inside.

It was time to wrap things up!
