Xi Siyan had turned it down as much as he could but could only accept it in the end. Mrs. An didn't know where she'd produced a whole pile of things with a flurry of noise and insisted that Xi Siyan take them back. At the end, she stuffed a thick envelope into his hand.
Xi Siyan tried to refuse, and Mrs. An's face darkened slightly: "Si Yan, this is what you and Aunt agreed on back then. It's one thing that you and An Rui are close, but you're tutoring Xiao Ge, and you can't not take the tutoring fee. These are two separate things."
Mrs. An looked gentle and dignified, but at her core there was a streak of dominance; whatever She said went.
So Xi Siyan had no choice but to take it. After thanking her repeatedly, he walked out of the An Family.
An Rui went with him, saying that the two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time and needed a good talk.
Once they got in the car, Xi Siyan handed the envelope back to An Rui. "Help me thank Aunt."
