Chapter 430: So Tiring!

He was not an idiot. No one could find out about the process of making tomato sauce – not even his teacher!

Ye Xuan wasn’t angry. Rather, he was impressed by the boy’s wit.

He had no plans to venture into business, so why would he want to peek at how they were making tomato sauce?

Although he was genuinely curious.

“Ran Er, I understand. I’m not going in. I’m just simply asking,” he smiled and patted Liu Ran on the head.

Only then did Liu Ran enter the kitchen.

Inside, Liu Duo was explaining to the others about how and when to add sugar and lemon essence, and what thickness they should expect...

Ye Ling saw him coming in and asked warmly, “Ran Er, is Ye Xuan gone?”

“No, he’s outside. He says I can take a break,” Liu Ran answered.

Ye Yang, like an invisible man, heard the name and shot a glance at Liu Ran.

Aunt Li, on the other hand, asked, “What’s he doing here anyway?”

She didn’t hate him, but she didn’t like him either. His sudden visit made her wonder.

Ye Ling provided an answer, “He came to tutor Ran Er. He’s the teacher.”

Aunt Li didn’t say anything else. It was not a bad thing for Liu Ran to get additional lessons.

Liu Duo told him, “Ran Er, stay away from him. I can tutor you.”

She didn’t want Liu Ran to get too familiar with him. It couldn’t be helped when he was at school, but that man had actually come to their house. It was just too much.

What could he teach anyway? She was far more knowledgeable than him!

Liu Ran looked at her questioningly. His sister could tutor him?

As far as they knew, Liu Duo had only learned a bit from Ye Mo. She could read, and she could manage the accounts, but could she handle knowledge?

They had all heard what she said and looked at her doubtfully.

Liu Duo was aware of their stares. She realized that, to them, she wasn’t qualified to say something like that.

It was so frustrating for a cultured person to pretend as though she wasn’t!

She coughed awkwardly, “Ran Er, Mo can tutor you at home. We don’t have to bother others.”

Yet Ye Ling responded, “But Mo had to go with Liu and Brother Li. He’s in charge of the accounts, so he’s rarely at home.”

He too didn’t want Ye Xuan to tutor Liu Ran, but what choice did they have?

At that moment, Ye Xuan called for Liu Ran, “Break is over. We should continue with your revision!”

He didn’t enter the kitchen, but he stood outside and raised his voice.

Liu Ran looked at Liu Duo again. If she didn’t want Ye Xuan to tutor him, he was fine with that.

He could feel that Liu Duo didn’t like Ye Xuan.

After giving some thought, Liu Duo nodded at Liu Ran.

“Alright, then I’m going, sis,” Liu Ran left when he received his answer.

A while later, it seemed Ye Xuan had left on his own.

Liu Duo raised a brow and found his action very peculiar. He may have been stubborn, but he seemed to know when he was not wanted.

Actually, Ye Xuan had spoken to Liu Ran and discovered approximately when Ye Mo and Ye Liu would return home. He decided to leave before they arrived.

He knew the two brothers weren’t people he could mess with!

“Sis, how long can the tomato sauce last?” Liu Ran examined the tomato sauce contained in jars. He supposed the flavor would go bad if left for too long.

Liu Duo sealed another jar shut before replying, “About a month or two.”

No preservatives were added, so naturally, the tomato sauce wouldn’t last forever.
