"You... really want to tutor me?" Tong Mo couldn't help but give him a proper look as he spoke to this extent.
His expression was very serious, seemingly truly sincere about wanting to tutor her.
"It's true."
Viscount Li nodded.
He didn't want her to be punished by the teacher for failing the test and have to stand outside for class next week.
Honestly, Tong Mo was somewhat tempted, after all, she was already a grown girl, and being punished to stand outside during class with people coming and going at the school would be an embarrassing ordeal.
Just like the last time she preferred to pay someone to attend the parent-teacher meeting on her behalf rather than standing at the back of the class.
So after thinking it over, she nodded and agreed, "Alright, you can tutor me!"
After finishing her sentence, she immediately added, "But I must say upfront... I am really dumb... Several academic geniuses in our class tried to teach me, but they all failed."
