Chapter 290: Tutoring (Please Subscribe)

"Good day, Mrs. Sitasu."

Aaron stood up and gave a bow.

It was evident that Mrs. Sitasu was stunned by his appearance; she seemed to take a low, deep breath before replying in a voice that sounded as if she were pinching her throat: "Good day, Mr. August... My husband has told me about you."

In fact, according to Mr. Nuo Ke Sitasu, Er was recommended by a very powerful bigwig in the "Wild Animals Specimen Enthusiasts Association," and connections within the Association were also very helpful for his business expansion.

As long as Er August was not too terrible, this kind of job application would certainly be successful.

"Just call me Er."

Everything had already been set up in the study, such as a small blackboard for lectures and a dedicated seat.

"My strongest subjects are ancient languages and scripts; I have done much research on ancient Lüsen Yu. Besides that, I am an enthusiast of linguistics, and I have dabbled in Ede, Runic, and the Voodoo Language of the colonies... Finally, I can also teach wild biology, etiquette, and natural history."

"Listen, kid, if you don't behave, this is how I'll deal with you."

Mrs. Sitasu hugged her son: "Aren't you going to greet our guest? This is politeness..."

Lu Bin's mouth hung as if a bottle could be hooked onto it, and he simply refused to speak. Only after Mrs. Sitasu promised a bunch of toys and snacks did he reluctantly say: "Good day, sir..."

Aaron thought for a moment and replied solemnly: "Excluding Saturdays and Sundays, because I need to rest and go to church for worship."

While pronouncing the words, he walked to a position out of Mrs. Sitasu's line of sight, turned toward Lu Bin with a ferocious smile on his face, and opened another textbook.

Aaron looked at the kid named Lu Bin in front of him, feeling very helpless in his heart as well.

"Of course, I am already a little man and can take on more responsibilities," little Lu Bin announced proudly: "Metana told me that before those young noble masters come of age, they have special noble ladies acting as etiquette teachers to teach them more private matters... Why is my etiquette teacher a man? I want to grow up and become an adult quickly so I can eat as much Ice Cream as I want every day..."

On the page, there was even an illustration of a prisoner being tortured, depicted vividly.

Aaron spoke with clear and crisp articulation: "Today, let us first learn some introductory basics of ancient Lüsen Yu—the Seventy-Six Phonetic Chart."

Aaron looked at Lu Bin, the corners of his mouth curving up: "Young master, let us return to today's lesson..."

'If I could, I would much rather teach a beautiful and cute young girl... unfortunately...'

Aaron closed the book and pushed up his non-existent glasses: "Little young master, you seem very precocious!"

Mrs. Sitasu hurriedly had the maid take Lu Bin away before regaining her composed posture: "I wonder which area you specialize in, Er?"

After all, she was the daughter of a Baron, with a status even higher than Mrs. Sitasu, so she could only grit her teeth and swallow this loss.

Mrs. Sitasu was somewhat hesitant; after all, she had seen with her own eyes that Aaron was teaching her child very diligently and seriously, with no signs of intimidation.

"Mom... he hit me, he pinched my neck really hard, my neck hurts so much!" Lu Bin cried with tears streaming down: "He... he also scared me, threatened me, he is a big bad guy!"

He naturally knew that in the room next to the study, a certain lady was peeking at the tutorial here through a special gap.

Lu Bin yelled: "Fire him! Fire him!"

Lu Bin watched the butler and the maid walk out of the study and close the door, then proudly lifted his little chin: "My dad told me that although you are knowledgeable, you can only work for us in the end. I don't want to learn that knowledge of the lower classes. If you dare to be strict with me, I will have my mom fire you!"

It was clear that he was very dissatisfied with this point.

Aaron almost spat out: "Cough, cough..."

'While striking the other party, placing a hardcover book as a cushion is a more common practice...'

"Alright, I know your kind..."

'It's fine... go ahead and be a brat; at least the one suffering in the end isn't me.'

"This is my son—Lu Bin!"

"Waaah!"

'Metana... Metana Yake? Baron Jacques's daughter, sixteen years old... seems to be a big mouth, very easy to leak information...'

'How to make a prisoner feel the most pain without leaving any scars—Introductory Chapter!'

With every word Aaron spoke, Mrs. Sitasu's eyes grew brighter, and by the end, there was even a hint of admiration: "You truly are a learned gentleman. I don't think I can refuse such a knowledgeable person to serve as my child's tutor... How does 7 pounds per week, with three hours of lessons per day, sound?"

"Then... when does the first lesson begin?"

Half an hour later.

Aaron smiled and sat opposite Mrs. Sitasu.

The word "fire" was a great threat; little Lu Bin had already tried it on some maids, and basically every time it was uttered, it would make their expressions turn miserable and look like they were about to cry, which made him very proud.

He actually knew full well that the etiquette teachers for those young noble masters were often very beautiful and mature, and also responsible for teaching them about relations between men and women—this was often done by their distant relatives—anyway, noble circles were just that messy.

By now, she was probably grinding her teeth in hatred, perhaps even wanting to beat Metana up—in her dreams.

Aaron heard the sound of someone falling in the next room and couldn't help but smile inwardly.

As Aaron spoke, he let Lu Bin's skin come into contact with the "Crying Blade," then pinched the muscles of his throat lightly.

The brat's tears flowed out immediately: "Mom... it hurts!"

With his back to Mrs. Sitasu, Aaron darkened his face and lowered his voice to threaten him.

"It is my honor."

It was just unexpected that such things had actually reached the ears of a little brat like Lu Bin.

"Anytime is fine. If you don't mind, I would like to invite you to dinner; my husband would also very much like to meet you."

"Of course, our whole family are also devout believers of the Holy Spirit," Mrs. Sitasu replied with a smile.

Lu Bin's expression became very bewildered, and the next moment, he heard Aaron's deliberately raised voice: "Come... read after me, pronounce it like this, the throat muscles must be pinched tight."

Not long after, Mrs. Sitasu rushed into the study and took Lu Bin into her arms.

Because of certain traditions in Invis, male tutors were often prone to having affairs with female students, leading families that cared even slightly about their reputation to choose same-sex teachers for their children to avoid scandals as much as possible.

Aaron asked.

Then, she carefully checked Lu Bin's neck and found the skin to be fair and delicate, without even a single red mark...

Her expression darkened instantly: "Lu Bin, apologize to your teacher at once! Lying is not a good habit!"

Lu Bin's tears stopped in his eyes; he looked up in surprise, his mouth agape, staring at his mother in complete disbelief.
