Chapter 37 -37: More Trouble for Sister Man
Kangkang’s dad misunderstood but became more humble, “If Kangkang has done something bad, I apologize on his behalf. Rest assured, I will definitely discipline him strictly from now on!”
“You are mistaken, this tutor is not that kind of tutor.” Jiang Man raised her eyebrows, “I want to be Kangkang’s home tutor.”
“What?” Kangkang’s dad and stepmom exclaimed almost in unison.
Kangkang’s dad was puzzled, while the stepmom had a strange expression.
“His stepmom is already a tutor, and we have no plans to change Kangkang’s tutor for now.”
“I want to change!” Kangkang immediately became anxious and agitated.
“Nonsense!” Restraining his temper and emotions because of Jiang Man and Wu Yingfan, Kangkang’s dad said, “Your stepmom is a top student, speaks three languages, and takes care of your daily life. She is the person who knows you best. Having her as your tutor couldn’t be more fitting!”
“She’s not suitable!” Kangkang said through gritted teeth, glaring fiercely at his stepmom.
Seeing this, the stepmom immediately started acting, her voice tearful, “Honey, since the child is not satisfied with me, let’s change the tutor. I know I have to manage the household and take care of the child’s studies at the same time; I can’t do both well, and I understand his dissatisfaction.”
“You’ve worked hard; it’s just that Kangkang is being unreasonable!” Completely deceived by the seductress, Kangkang’s dad felt only sympathy for his wife and annoyance at his son’s capricious behavior.
“I’m sorry, Kangkang is just being difficult at home now; this is our family matter, so we won’t trouble you both any further.” Kangkang’s dad said politely but was effectively showing them out.
Upon hearing his dad trying to send away his saviors, Kangkang became desperate, grabbing Jiang Man’s clothes and tugging relentlessly, “I’m not being ridiculous! Stepmom is way worse than Sister. Don’t you want me to get into Tsinghua University? Then we definitely need a better tutor!”
Upon hearing that Jiang Man could be a better tutor than his wife, Kangkang’s dad hesitated for a moment, then politely asked, “May I know what are your qualifications, Miss?”
Jiang Man frowned; she was now Jiang Man, not Lisite Man.
“No qualifications,” she said lightly, her voice airy.
“Pfft.” Hearing the words ‘no qualifications,’ the stepmom immediately laughed out loud, covering her mouth pretentiously, “I’m sorry, I’m really sorry; I didn’t mean to laugh, but it’s just so funny. How can you tutor someone without any qualifications? Are you teaching Kangkang, or is Kangkang teaching you?”
“Lady, I’m really sorry, but we take our child’s education very seriously. We appreciate your kind intentions, and it’s getting late, so we won’t see you out!” Kangkang’s dad issued another dismissal.

Wu Yingfan flashed a smirk several times, glancing at Jiang Man.
This little devil sure knows how to keep his cool.
“Auntie, having no qualifications doesn’t mean having no culture. When you mock someone else, be careful – you might end up being the clown yourself,” Wu Yingfan retorted.
At this, the stepmom immediately bristled, “You’re calling me auntie?”
“Hmm?” Wu Yingfan eyed Kangkang’s stepmom up and down, “Should I call you grandma instead?”
“You…you… How can you be so rude!” The stepmom trembled with anger.
Wu Yingfan just shrugged, “My mom taught me that clowns don’t deserve politeness.”
“You… Who are you calling a clown? You said that having no qualifications doesn’t mean having no culture, right? Fine, then I’ll compete with her!”
“This is you seeking your own humiliation; don’t blame me,” Wu Yingfan shrugged, turning to Jiang Man with a brilliant smile, “Man, it’s not me stirring trouble; some people just don’t learn until they see the coffin!”
“Heh,” Jiang Man sneered, her expression slightly wild, “Tell me, how shall we compete?”
She played Candy Crush with one hand, her movements swift.
The stepmom, already livid, said to Kangkang, “Don’t you have a book of English extracurricular reading? Get it out.”
Kangkang hesitated for a moment and looked at Jiang Man.
Seeing her indifferent and not shrinking back at all, he felt very confident.
He took a paperback book out from his school bag and handed it to Kangkang’s mom.
With the book in hand, Kangkang’s mom said to Kangkang’s dad, “Honey, she and I will translate the same article. Let’s see who can translate it faster and more accurately! For fairness, you pick a page at random.”
“Young lady, are you really up for the challenge? My wife has a Level 8 in English, and she has certificates in TOEFL and IELTS. You can’t beat her,” Kangkang’s dad said with a headache.
Bound by neighborly ties, he couldn’t afford to offend, especially not when the potential future financier might be the one he inadvertently offended.
However, indulging their whims, he found himself feeling bothered.
This girl looked like a clueless rich kid, probably just bored and messing around at their house.
“Win or lose, you don’t get the final say,” Wu Yingfan interrupted Kangkang’s dad, “Stop dawdling and just pick a page.”
Kangkang’s dad glanced at Jiang Man and shook his head, “Alright.”
If the young ones wanted to embarrass themselves, there was nothing he could do.
“Hold on, honey!” Just as Kangkang’s dad was about to open the book to find the longest article, Kangkang’s mom stopped him, “We need a referee for the contest, otherwise someone might not admit defeat later!”
“A referee?” Kangkang’s dad frowned, “You’re the most literate person here. You’re asking me to find a referee on such short notice, that’s really difficult.”
“How about Kangkang’s English teacher, or Principal Yu! Didn’t Principal Yu spend ten years in the UK? I’ve heard he speaks with a fluent London accent.”
“Principal Yu is too busy; it’s not good to trouble him. As for the English teacher, that might be possible.”
Kangkang’s dad immediately called the English teacher, but couldn’t get through.
Kangkang shrugged, “We have English self-study tonight, and the teacher usually sets his phone to silent mode. He won’t be able to receive calls.”
“This is so troublesome,” Wu Yingfan said impatiently, “Let’s just ask Lu Xingzhou. I read on Wikipedia that he speaks 16 languages. He’s practically a walking translator.”
“Yeah, Brother Xingzhou would make a perfect referee!” Kangkang immediately agreed.
Upon hearing this, both Kangkang’s dad and mom looked at each other, a problematic expression on their faces.
If they couldn’t get Principal Yu, getting Lu Xingzhou was even more out of the question.
Though all owners of properties in Rong Mansion, there were still classes among them.
Lu Xingzhou was the most prestigious owner in Rong Mansion, while they were just ordinary ones.
Their assets summed up to a couple of billion, but in front of someone whose worth billions, they were mere small fish.
Kangkang’s dad then painfully said, “Kid, you’re really funny. How are we supposed to invite CEO Lu? If it weren’t for his favor towards our Kangkang, we wouldn’t even have the chance to see CEO Lu.”
“That weak?” Wu Yingfan looked disdainfully and signaled to Jiang Man, “Man, why don’t you bring him here.”
Are you guys joking?” Kangkang’s mom said sarcastically, “That’s CEO Lu you are talking about; not someone you can just call over!”
“My sister actually can bring him here,” Kangkang boasted confidently.
Kangkang’s mom could not help but scoff, “Sure, sure, you call him. Just go ahead and call him. If you really can get CEO Lu here, we won’t need to compete. I’ll gladly give you Kangkang’s tutor!”
“That’s what you said,” Jiang Man said mischievously, nonchalantly.
“I said it!” Kangkang’s mom declared proudly.
