The heavy wooden door slowly moved with the inertia of gravity, revealing a view of the balcony where sunlight poured in, bringing a touch of warmth and light.

After a quick glance, Yu Zhi had a good idea of the person in front of him.

There was no cap, no mask, no gloves, and no pair of eyes that, even under the sunlight, revealed no warmth.

Standing before him was simply a young man with a normal appearance and demeanor, looking quite polite.

Having just graduated from school and majoring in education, he still carried the scholarly aura of someone who is teaching and nurturing others. From a distance of one or two meters, Yu Zhi felt as though he could even smell the elegant scent of books emanating from him.

"Sorry, I'm a relative from the house across the way. I don't know much about the neighbors nearby. May I ask who you are?" Yu Zhi's expression showed just the right amount of curiosity and inquiry.

His words and demeanor gradually eased the young man's earlier guard and vigilance, making him seem to relax as he revealed a hint of politeness and apology on his gentle face.

"I'm not from here; I'm just a tutor hired by this family."

Just then, hearing the commotion, Xu's mother came over, "Teacher Bie, what's going on?"

Upon seeing Yu Zhi, she paused for a moment, "You're... Li Zhixin's uncle? I haven't seen you in years and didn't recognize you. Sorry about that! Please, come in, come in!"

"I just returned from abroad and am working at the hospital. For now, I'm staying here. I've entrusted Li Zhixin to your care," Yu Zhi said politely as he entered the house. As he brushed past the tutor, he paused and asked, "Are you leaving, Teacher?"

Teacher Bie seemed uncomfortable being too close to others and took a half-step back, smiling, "Yes, the class time is over. I'll come again tomorrow."

Yu Zhi took out his phone, "I have children at home too. If the opportunity arises, I might need your help as well. Shall we add each other on WeChat?"

Teacher Bie adjusted his glasses, hiding the emotions in his eyes. "Thank you, but it shouldn't be necessary. I'm only available to tutor during this period. After I start working, I probably won't have that much time. I'm sorry; I can't help you."

However, Yu Zhi didn't easily give up. He smiled and said, "How could that be? Even if you're busy, you could introduce me to other available teachers. It's always good to know more friends for when you need something. If any of your friends need help at the hospital, you can also ask me."

The mention of the hospital seemed to touch a nerve with the person in front of him; his fingertips trembled slightly when no one was paying attention, and a warm smile appeared on his lips, as gentle as a spring breeze. "Alright then, I might trouble Mr. Yu. After all, it's inevitable that one has to visit the hospital in life. Speaking of which, I'm the one who benefits here."

Yu Zhi glanced at him, "It's better not to benefit from this."

Teacher Bie paused in his movement to scroll through his phone, then heard the man he had just met, who seemed a bit too familiar, continue, "Who really likes going to the hospital?"

Teacher Bie's expression faltered slightly before he quietly replied, "Yes, who likes it?"

After exchanging WeChat information, the sound of the door closing behind him signaled that the man was no longer at the entrance.
