Most of all, even though Zhai Sheng was not yet the Chief, that intimidating aura that he exuded made Qiao Nan felt that she was a soldier under his charge.
Seeing that Qiao Nan was seated in an tense manner, Zhai Sheng tried to relax, was he too serious such that he was scaring Uncle Qiao’s younger daughter? “I remember that your name is Qiao Nan?”
“Er…. Yes.” Qiao Nan was stunned for a while, then nodded.
“Don’t be so nervous. Sit down.” When he saw the young lady looking extremely pitiful, similar to when he met her in the summer vacation, Zhai Sheng’s tone softened.
Of course, this softened demeanor was solely Zhai Sheng’s a.s.sumption. To Qiao Nan, Zhai Sheng’s voice sounded more aloof and frightening.
“How are your grades coming along recently?”
“Not not, not th-that good.” Qiao Nan stammered and nearly bit her tongue when she spoke.
Qiao Nan’s face was fl.u.s.tered. She turned away and patted her face gently. She felt calmer thereafter and continued to face Zhai Sheng. “As I did not revise for one summer vacation, I have forgotten some of the knowledge. I I, I have been trying to catch up recently.”
“Taken your exams?”
“Yes.”
“What have you been tested on, how many marks did you score?”
“Chinese, Maths and English. Scored 85 marks for Chinese and Mathematics, and full marks for English.”
Qiao Nan realized that she had said the wrong things. Her and Brother Zhai’s relations.h.i.+p was not akin to supervisor and subordinate. They were similar to that of parent and child!
Zhai Sheng was only older than Qiao Nan by four years, but in terms of aura even Qiao Nan, who had been through two lifetimes, did not feel worthy before Zhai Sheng.
“These grades, do you have the test papers, let me take a look.”
“The papers were already returned to the teacher, I don’t have it.” Qiao Nan shook her head several times. She felt nervous to let Zhai Sheng see the papers.
Even when Qiao Dongliang asked about her grades, she did not have this feeling. Before Zhai Sheng, she did not know why she felt so uptight and formal that she did not know where to place her limbs.
“Are you afraid of me?” Zhai Sheng realised that his several attempts to put down his airs and communicate with Qiao Nan peacefully had failed.
Before him, Qiao Nan was like a rabbit who met a tiger. She was so scared that her limbs were wobbly and s.h.i.+vering with no strength to escape.
Zhai Sheng could not help asking himself, was he really so scary?
“Not not not… ” Qiao Nan wanted to say “not scary”, but when she stammered “not” ten times, she changed her mind and said “A little.”
“Just a little?” Zhai Sheng did not believe.
“More, a little more?” Qiao Nan showed her fingers, indicating that it was more than a little.
Zhai Sheng pursed his lips. His sharp falcon-like eyes revealed a hint of a faint smile. It should be more than a little, otherwise who would dare to play tricks in front of him.
“If I am home, you can look for me if you have any questions.”
“No thanks.” Qiao Nan declined flatly. Zhai Sheng was not an ordinary man, his time was so precious, how could his time be wasted on her?
