Chapter 204 Su Ran stays to teach at Shen's Academy

Shen Li's life is like a gorgeous painting that is full, tight, seamless and extremely fulfilling.

The busy brushstrokes vividly depict her petite figure in Fuxi Villa, who is as busy as a nimble bird.

Although this little girl is only eight years old, she is very smart and clever, and her seriousness seems to be innate.

In the vast, green fields, Shen Li was like an experienced farming expert, leaning over and concentrating on carefully observing the growth of the crops.

Her big, black eyes, like the sharp eyes of an eagle, swept over every seedling and every leaf sharply. No matter how subtle the change was, it would not slip away from her eyes.

Sometimes she frowned slightly, as if thinking about how to mix the crops; sometimes she looked happy, probably because she was quite satisfied with the growth of the crops.

But once in Zhuangzi's warehouse, Shen Li instantly transformed into a shrewd and capable accountant.

The slender and delicate fingers jumped and danced lightly and nimbly on the abacus, and the abacus beads collided with each other, making a crisp and pleasant crackling sound, like a cheerful and busy music.

She skillfully fiddled with the abacus beads while mumbling the account details with her focused expression, as if the whole world was only filled with the account book and numbers in front of her.

The small building on Fuxi Street has also been renovated smoothly.

Shen Li's clever little head was like a box full of treasures. She already had a unique, comprehensive and complete plan, just waiting for the right time to show her skills.

As Shen Li's loyal servant, Shen Yu always followed her carefully, paying attention to her every move and every word, and dared not slack off even in the slightest.

He has an honest and simple character. Although he is not as quiet, reserved, steady and prudent as Nangong Qi, he also knows the limits. He just sits quietly by the side, skillfully assisting Shen Li in handling all kinds of complicated and trivial matters.

From time to time, he would ask in a soft and slightly shy voice: "Miss, do you need my help here?" His attitude was as humble and respectful as possible, just like that of an honest and responsible little follower.

Su Ran watched all this quietly from the side, like a lurker hiding in the dark, patiently waiting for the best opportunity.

On the surface, he seems gentle and calm, but in fact, the sense of urgency in his heart is like a surging tide, constantly surging and stirring.

He knew clearly in his mind that if he became a highly respected teacher in the Shen family school, it would undoubtedly be a broad and bright road that would lead him to Shen Li's trust and integration into the Shen family.

Finally, on a beautiful day when the sun was shining softly and the breeze was blowing gently, Shen Li, whom he had been thinking about and looking forward to, finally appeared.

On this day, as soon as the morning light showed a little shy face in the sky, Su Ran quickly turned over and got up.

Then he carefully selected items in his suitcase for a long time before solemnly taking out a white gown of fine texture as smooth as satin.

The fabric of the gown, gently caressed by the sunlight, seemed to be flowing with a layer of dreamy, faint halo, which further highlighted his tall and slender figure and his elegant and extraordinary temperament.

He stood there straight, took a deep breath, as if gathering the strength hidden deep in his heart, and then walked steadily towards where Shen Li was with steady and confident steps.

When he came closer, he bowed slightly and saluted with his hands clasped. His movements were as graceful and natural as flowing water, and the expression on his face was humble and gentle, just like a refined scholar walking out of an ancient and elegant painting.

His voice was neither too high nor too low, like the clear and pleasant gurgling of a mountain stream. He spoke gently and modestly, "Miss, I've been harboring a desire to stay at the Shen Family Academy, wielding the sacred teaching baton, and becoming a teacher who teaches and answers questions. However, I'm unsure whether this is the right move..."

After saying this, he paused slightly, as if waiting for the final judgment of the God of Fate.

Then, he slowly raised his head and looked at Shen Li with sincere and ardent eyes, with a hint of expectation and uneasiness intertwined in his eyes, as if he was a traveler groping forward in the long and dark darkness, hoping that a bright light would suddenly light up in the front to guide the way.

When Shen Li heard Su Ran's request, she tilted her clever and curious little head slightly and looked him up and down carefully.

A thoughtful glint flashed across her eyes, which were as bright as shining stars. Then she asked softly, "Do you have any teaching experience? What subjects are you good at?"

Su Ran quickly replied, "Miss, I have been familiar with the classics, history, and literature since I was young. I have also studied poetry, prose, and the study of worldly affairs in depth. I dare not say that I am proficient in them, but I have a basic understanding of them.

I have taught at other schools for a period of time before, so I think I am still qualified to teach at the Shen Family School."

After saying this, a humble smile appeared on his face, but there was a hint of confidence in his eyes.

Shen Li nodded gently, and then asked: "Then why do you want to stay in my Shen family school?"

Su Ran's expression straightened up, her face solemn, and she replied seriously: "Miss, I have been staying at the Shen family for these days, and I have truly felt the harmony, friendliness and positivity of this big family.

I wanted to use the little knowledge I had learned to contribute to the academic growth of the Shen family's children, and I also hoped to find a stable and long-term place to settle down here."

Shen Li raised a light, satisfied smile and said happily, "In that case, you can stay. But you must teach the children of the Shen family carefully and don't let me down."

Upon hearing this, Su Ran was secretly delighted and quickly bowed again, this time with a more respectful gesture and a firmer tone: "Thank you for your trust, Miss. Su Ran will definitely give it his all and will not dare to be careless or slack in the slightest!"
