The Right Way to Train a Hound

[Gentle, beautiful older tutor x unruly, hot-tempered young master during his youth, then possessive, calculating, devoted gentleman as an adult]

When Yu Qian was in high school, he worked part-time as a tutor for a wealthy family.

The young master had been spoiled since childhood, with a terrible temper and a reputation for being impossible to handle. The previous tutors had all been scared off.

When he learned his father had hired yet another tutor, the young master sneered. If he couldn't drive this one away within a day, he'd be a puppy!

Yu Qian knocked on the door. The young master had already figured out how to torment him. But when the door opened and he saw Yu Qian, he froze.

Yu Qian started teaching him, and the young master was so dazed he couldn't think straight. He could barely remember a few formulas to begin with, and now he'd forgotten every last one.

After the lesson, Yu Qian was about to leave when the young master clung to the door, gazing at him with wide, pleading eyes. His beautiful, sharp eyes had turned into watery puppy eyes.

The young master asked, "Y-you... are you coming back tomorrow?"

Yu Qian said, "If you're willing to study hard, of course I'll teach you."

That night, the young master didn't play video games. Instead, he buried himself in his studies, keeping at it until he was so tired he fell asleep.

In his dream, he really had turned into a puppy. QAQ

Yu Qian made him do exercises, but his paws couldn't hold a pen, and he barked anxiously.

The young master grew up into the eldest young master, proud and dignified, looking down on the world. Countless people admired him, yet no one could get close to him.

No one except Yu Qian.

By Yu Qian's side, he was gentle, obedient, and refined, like a completely different person.

The most daring thing he had ever done was greedily kiss and bite Yu Qian's lips while he was asleep.

Perhaps because he had watched Qin Minshen grow up, Yu Qian still thought of him as a child, even though he was now a handsome young man nearly 1.9 meters tall.

He had always believed that Qin Minshen still respected him as a teacher, just as he had when he was little.

He had no idea how much Qin Minshen had longed to grow up faster all these years.

Only then would his beloved Little Yu Ge notice him.

Only then could he drive away everyone who coveted Little Yu Ge.

And only then could he keep his beloved Little Yu Ge by his side forever.

A gentle beauty tamed a fiery, proud puppy.

The puppy saw him as its master, and thought it was his one and only puppy.

But as the puppy grew up, it realized that the beauty was just as gentle with everyone else, and that many other dogs were waiting for him to become their master.

Curled up in the beauty's arms, breathing in his sweet scent, the puppy couldn't stop turning over greedy thoughts in its mind: Since the beauty had tamed him, he had to take responsibility for him.

Otherwise, he'd have no choice but to drag the beauty into his den and lock him up until he learned how to be his master.
