I'm a senior in high school, and the system says I'm going on a blind date with my childho

Chapter 137 It's common sense to show your feet when apologizing, right?
In the afternoon sunlight, the shadows of the trees flowed across the hems of their clothes.

Shen Yuan casually kicked away a pebble with one hand in his pocket, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw every expression on the girl's face beside him.

"What are the plans for National Day?" Shen Yuan asked Li Zhi.

Li Zhizheng walked in a straight line, stepping through the gaps between the floor tiles, his head down, the stray hairs sticking up at his neck trembling slightly with each step.

Upon hearing this, she raised her eyelashes and decisively replied, "Reading, petting cats, and training dogs."

Shen Yuan chuckled: "Don't push me to the point of madness in public."

Li Zhi immediately raised his hands: "I surrender, I was wrong, don't go crazy."

Li Zhizhen was afraid that Shen Yuan would pretend to be Wa Xuedi (a nickname) and call her "Mom" in front of everyone.

Although this wasn't the first time Shen Yuan had done this, Li Zhi still couldn't accept it.

These kinds of things are best left unsaid in private.

Pooh!
You can't shout it out in private!

She's not Ace! I like this vibe!
Is this how you surrender?

Shen Yuan's face darkened, and he rebuked, "It's common sense to show your jade feet when surrendering!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Shen Yuan was struck on the head by Li Zhiyi's electric cannon.

"Is this the time to expose XP, Thran!"

Shen Yuan clutched his head and let out a painful groan.

"I'm talking about something serious right now! You were the one who brought up dog training first."

Li Zhi rolled her eyes: "Who's acting crazy over there, and you're going to blame me?"

Shen Yuan gave a slightly awkward smile, then cleared his throat and said, "Uh, to be honest, I have to go out on the 2nd, and I probably won't be back until tonight."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi raised an eyebrow and asked, "What are you going out for?"

Shen Yuan hesitated for a moment, then replied half-jokingly, "Just going out for some fun. I've been feeling a lot of pressure lately, so I want to go out and relax, and clear my head. Do you want to come with me?"

As he spoke, he looked at Li Zhi with a probing gaze, but Shen Yuan knew very well that Li Zhi would not agree.

As Shen Yuan had predicted, Li Zhi refused without hesitation after hearing his words:

"No, I'm not going. I don't have any pressure, so what's the point of relaxing? I think you just lack confidence in your monthly exam results, so you're thinking of going out to escape. You might as well just give up."

Li Zhi's tone was tinged with sarcasm, as if he didn't think much of Shen Yuan's behavior.

The solemn ritual remains as captivating as ever.

Shen Yuan scratched his head helplessly and explained, "Oh, it's not what you think. I'm actually quite confident about this monthly exam."

"Oh? Is that so?" Li Zhi clearly didn't quite believe Shen Yuan's words. She stopped and turned around, staring directly at Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan looked away, his words revealing a hint of frankness and directness: "Uh... actually, I'm mainly missing out on your cooking, hehe."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi suddenly froze, her steps involuntarily halting, her previously suspicious gaze now becoming even more profound.

She stared intently at Shen Yuan, as if trying to discern something from his face.

After a long while, the beautiful girl slowly spoke, "Why do I feel like you're studying with a purpose?"

Her tone carried a hint of doubt and uncertainty.

"What do you mean?" Shen Yuan looked at the beautiful girl with a puzzled expression and asked.

With a flick of her head, Li Zhi's long, waterfall-like hair drew a graceful arc in the air.

The pretty girl snorted coldly: "I'm not going to tell you! If I did, you would definitely be on guard! But anyway, you have an ulterior motive."

Shen Yuan shrugged upon hearing this.

If you don't want to say, then don't say. It's not like I don't know whether I have ulterior motives or not.

"Oh, by the way, what are your goals for the college entrance exam?" Shen Yuan asked.

Upon hearing Shen Yuan's question, Li Zhi nodded without hesitation and replied, "Of course! Although I don't know if it will be achieved in the end, you always have to have a goal."

"Oh? So what is your goal?" Shen Yuan asked curiously.

"Tsinghua and Peking University, of course!" Li Zhi's tone revealed a hint of longing. "Ideally, I could also get a master's degree and then take the civil service exam."

Shen Yuan nodded repeatedly in agreement as he listened to Li Zhi's words.

However, before Shen Yuan could express his opinion, he heard Li Zhi continue talking non-stop.

"When I take the postgraduate entrance exam, I'll post on Xiaohongshu with the title 'Preparing for the Postgraduate Entrance Exam'. Once I pass, I'll change the title to 'What's it like for a girl to do postgraduate studies'. After I finish my postgraduate studies, I'll post again with the title 'Preparing for the Civil Service Exam'. Once I pass the civil service exam, the title will be 'What's it like for a girl to live in the system'."

It's so classic, so incredibly classic.

As Shen Yuan listened to Li Zhi's plan, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. He thought to himself, "You've completely figured out the secrets to Xiaohongshu's traffic!"

"Hehe, if the traffic is bad, I'll just put you, my childhood sweetheart, on the list. Who in the family would understand!"

As Li Zhi spoke, he laughed happily, seemingly full of confidence in the plan, as if he could already see its future success.

Shen Yuan rolled his eyes: "Then I really have to thank you! With your methods, I reckon I could become a celebrity no matter what."

His tone revealed a sense of ease and banter.

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi asked curiously, "Don't you consider the impact on your reputation?"

Shen Yuan didn't seem to care, and said with a smile, "Being black and red is still being red. As long as we can make money, nothing else matters!"

Seeing this, Li Zhi rolled his eyes helplessly and muttered, "That money is mine too!"

Shen Yuan quickly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't be so stingy, we can split it equally. Besides, we can also do a live stream and have a PK battle, that way we'll earn even more!"

He spoke with absolute certainty, as if he could already see piles of money beckoning to them.

Li Zhi's eyes lit up: "You? You're going to lose pretty badly!"

Shen Yuan, however, was not discouraged at all. He chuckled and said, "So what if I lost? It's just a marketing tactic. What's shameful about making money?"

Li Zhi rolled her eyes at him again and said irritably, "If I really succeed in getting ashore, I won't bother with any PK with you!"

Shen Yuan, however, disagreed, laughing and saying, "But there's always the possibility of something going wrong. What if it doesn't succeed?"

Li Zhi was immediately displeased and snorted angrily, "Hmph! You're starting to curse me now, aren't you!"

Seeing this, Shen Yuan quickly smiled apologetically, then changed the subject: "Hey, by the way, if your score were high enough, what do you think would be the reason you didn't go to Tsinghua or Peking University?"

Upon hearing this question, Li Zhi did not answer immediately.

Shen Yuan didn't press the matter, and instead walked quietly home with Li Zhi.

After walking for two or three minutes, the surrounding environment gradually quieted down, with only the sound of their footsteps echoing in the air.

Shen Yuan's thoughts were drifting when suddenly he heard Li Zhi's voice softly in his ear.

"Perhaps it's something that forced me to stay." Li Zhi's tone was calm, seemingly without much emotion.

Shen Yuan snapped out of his reverie, glanced at Li Zhi, and asked, "For example?"

Li Zhi thought for a moment, then replied, "Zhejiang University is giving too much."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan was taken aback at first, then the corners of his mouth turned up slightly and he let out a laugh.

He felt that although the reason was somewhat straightforward, it was not without merit.

After all, many people would be tempted by such generous offers.

“Then we definitely have to stay,” Shen Yuan said with a smile.

Li Zhi nodded, then turned to look at Shen Yuan.

A hint of curiosity flashed in the pretty girl's eyes as she asked, "And you? Where is your target?"

This question surprised Shen Yuan. He remained silent for a moment, then shook his head.

"If you had asked me this question before, I would have said something like teacher training or science and engineering, but if you ask me now, I can only say that I am still on the rise."

Shen Yuan stared intently at Li Zhi and said in a slightly teasing tone, "Maybe, I mean maybe, I might even get into the same university as you and keep bothering you!"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi rolled her eyes at Shen Yuan: "Same kindergarten, same elementary school, same middle school, same high school, isn't that enough for you?"

Shen Yuan flashed a bright smile: "You're so annoying."

Li Zhi was starting to lose interest in talking to Shen Yuan.

"it's up to you!"

Li Zhi tossed her head, her ponytail tracing a beautiful arc in the air, and then strode towards the residential area.

However, Shen Yuan clearly saw that the corners of the beautiful girl's mouth were slightly raised.

Damn arrogant.

……

The elevator slowly came to a stop on the 19A floor, and with a "ding," the elevator doors slowly opened.

Shen Yuan stepped out of the elevator, looked at Li Zhi standing at the door of his home, a smile appeared on his lips, and asked, "Come to my house later?"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi hesitated for a moment. Her gaze fell on Shen Yuan, as if she were pondering something.

Seeing this, Shen Yuan quickly continued, "It's just the start of the holiday, there's no need to work so hard. There are still three days left, you can do your homework tomorrow."

Upon hearing Shen Yuan's words, Li Zhi paused slightly as he took out the key, and lightly rubbed his toes on the doormat, seemingly hesitant.

The pretty girl inadvertently noticed that Shen Yuan's hand, which was in his pocket, was unconsciously rubbing his keychain, making a slight metallic clinking sound that was particularly clear in the hallway.

"alright."

The beautiful girl suddenly raised her chin, her hair cascading over her shoulder in an arc, and her slender index finger pointed at Shen Yuan in mid-air.

"But you have to start writing the test paper at 8 p.m.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan was about to open his mouth to refute, but was quickly interrupted by Li Zhi.

"Don't try to make excuses, or I won't come!"

Li Zhi's voice carried a hint of warning.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan immediately swallowed back the words he was about to say and instead adopted a resigned expression.

"I know, but... where do I do my homework?"

Li Zhi's fingers gently hooked the keychain, dangling it casually, the keys clinking together to make a crisp "ding-a-ling" sound.

She tilted her head slightly, and her ponytail slipped down, the ends of her hair brushing against her fair collarbone, like a spring breeze rippling across a lake.

Under the ceiling light in the hallway, Li Zhi's almond-shaped eyes gleamed with a cunning light.

"At your place, remember to have my ice cream ready."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhi opened the door to his house.

Before closing the door, the beautiful girl gave Shen Yuan a sweet smile.

Looking at Li Zhi's smile, Shen Yuan felt that his childhood sweetheart was evolving in the direction of a bad woman.

This is somewhat frightening.

Shen Yuan shrank back and went home.

Shen Yuan was home alone because his parents hadn't come home from get off work yet.

"Children, your father has returned!"

As soon as they got back to the room, Shen Yuan's voice startled the two kids so much that they started doing parkour around the room.

"Dad has some good news for you. Your mom will be here soon."

Shen Yuan grabbed the mistress by the back of the neck and carefully brought her to him.

"Aren't you happy? Aren't you excited?" Shen Yuan said to Xiao Sangeng with a big smile, "You'll be able to see your mom whom you haven't seen in a long time soon!"

As he spoke, he thought about going up to the kitten and giving it a good nibble on its soft belly.

Just as Shen Yuan was about to succeed, a small paw suddenly reached out and pressed against his face.

I refused your advances at midnight.

After being rejected, Shen Yuan was not angry. Instead, he found the kitten even more interesting.

He grabbed the kitten's paw, then unceremoniously brought his face right up to the cat's head, grinning as he said, "Hehe, little kitten, try to resist! The more you resist, the happier I'll be!"

Hearing Shen Yuan's words, Sangeng seemed somewhat dissatisfied and let out a protest cry.

But this didn't annoy Shen Yuan; instead, it made him even more excited. He continued to tease the kitten: "Kitty, meow away! The louder you meow, the more excited I get, hehe!"

Even if you scream your lungs out today, no one can save you!

Shen Yuan had barely finished speaking when his phone rang. Holding the kitten in one arm, Shen Yuan picked up his phone and saw that it was Li Zhi calling.

"Oh ho, your mom's here."

Before Shen Yuan could answer the phone, Li Zhi hung up.

However, Shen Yuan also knew why Li Zhi had called.

She arrived at the door.

"Let's go pick up your mom together."

Shen Yuan picked up Nao Nao again, carrying the two kittens to pick up Li Zhile.

As soon as the door opened, Li Zhi saw Shen Yuan holding two furry children.

"Ta-da! Sangeng and Naonao have come to greet Mommy!"

Shen Yuan held a kitten in each hand and offered it to Li Zhi: "Which one do you want to hold?"

"Only children make choices; adults want both!"

After saying that, Li Zhi took the two cats from Shen Yuan's hands.

"It's quite heavy. Are you raising it like a pig?"

Shen Yuan shrugged and argued, "No way, they only weigh a little over 6 pounds, they're not fat at all."

Li Zhi wrinkled her nose dismissively, let out a soft snort, and then carried the two kittens straight into Shen Yuan's room.

As Li Zhi and Shen Yuan passed each other, a faint fragrance, different from the ones they had smelled before, wafted into Shen Yuan's nose.

It had a woody scent with a slightly cool undertone.

Shen Yuan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Did you wear perfume?"

Li Zhi nodded and explained, "Well, because the cat doesn't really like the smell of oranges, I sprayed some perfume on it to cover up the orange scent."

Shen Yuan leaned forward and smelled the woody scent, then smiled and said, "It smells quite nice."

Shen Yuan didn't say this to deliberately curry favor with Li Zhi.

For someone like Shen Yuan, who has a sensitive nose, woody, cool-toned perfumes are much more tactile.

Shen Yuan couldn't stand the strong perfume scent.

Upon hearing Shen Yuan's words, Li Zhi also revealed a happy smile.

"Yes, I knew it smelled good. Actually, I quite like woody scents."

Shen Yuan nodded, then leaned closer to smell it, and became even more certain of one thing.

"The smell is quite similar to the incense my grandma used to burn when she chanted sutras."

Li Zhi raised his hand and struck.

"If you want to die, just say so!"

"Hey, hey, hey, just tell the truth! I didn't say this smelled bad!"

Shen Yuan dodged and weaved around the room, eventually escaping Li Zhi's pursuit.

The main reason is that Li Shao doesn't want to get into Shen Yuan's bed.

The pretty girl thought it was a bit dirty.

After making a fuss for a while, Li Zhi didn't want to pay attention to Shen Yuan anymore and went to play with the kitten instead.

This is completely different from what Shen Yuan did.

When Li Zhi held them, the two kittens seemed very calm.

Watching Li Zhi interact with the kitten, Shen Yuan suddenly thought of something.

"Want to play a couple of rounds of farming? Or something else?"

Li Zhi nodded: "Let's play one game first, and if things don't go well, we'll play something else."

Li Zhi doesn't get easily carried away by games; he won't get caught up in losing streaks or winning streaks and think about playing another game.

Of course, it's also possible that Li Shao doesn't play much usually.

I'll play a game when I remember, and then I'll do my homework.

Winning or losing is not as enjoyable as solving a math problem.

Therefore, Shen Yuan and Li Zhi are at different ranks and can only play casual matches.

"You idiot Shen Yuan, do you even know how to play?"

Shen Yuan:?
"I'm a Challenger, you're a Diamond, and you're asking me?"

Li Zhi frowned: "Then why did you rush up there? You're already inside the tower!"

"I, Liu Shan, sisters! I can faint from towers!"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi blinked: "Really? You're using interference?"

For a moment, Shen Yuan gave up struggling.

A wry smile appeared on the boy's face: "It's okay, it's mine. I'll be more careful next time."

"Exactly! They give away things haphazardly and then blame me."

Li Zhi glared at Shen Yuan, then continued playing the game with her head down.

Where Shen Yuan couldn't see, a happy smile curved the corners of the beautiful girl's mouth.

A game doesn't last long, and it's a matchmaking game.

Although Li Zhi's skills were average, the opposing team's defenses were breached by Shen Yuan's disgusting tower-stealing tactics.

"It's boring, not fun at all."

After winning the match, Li Zhifei quickly switched to another game.

Seeing this, Shen Yuan also turned off the game.

Playing alone isn't very fun.

After the game ended, Li Zhi lazily sank into the swivel chair, stretching as she did so, revealing a section of her fair and tender calf from under her school trousers.

Her slippers had somehow ended up under the chair, and her feet were wrapped in cotton socks, the white lace trim at the top of the socks neatly embracing her delicate ankles.

In the room filled with the scent of wood and sunlight, Shen Yuan's gaze had barely moved two inches from that swaying, snow-white ankle when he heard the swivel chair creak.

The jade-carved ankle drew a small semi-circle in the air, and Li Zhi suddenly turned to face him, his toes hovering three centimeters above his calf.

"Does it look good?"

Upon hearing Li Zhi's voice, Shen Yuan nodded repeatedly and said with great certainty, "Beautiful!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the girl kicked him in the shin.

"You filthy pervert, go to hell!"

Shen Yuansi hugged his calves, looking aggrieved, and said, "I was just worried your feet would get cold because you weren't wearing slippers and were walking on the ground!"

"Hehe, thank you for your concern. Should I award you a Women's Friendship Medal?"

Li Zhixiao's kindness, in Shen Yuan's eyes, was a harbinger of his impending doom.

If he dares to ask for it, he'll most likely get beaten up.

"Yes, it would be my pleasure."

Shen Yuan nodded firmly.

Li Zhi couldn't take it anymore and kicked him again.

"Thran, prepare to die!"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't kick me! I'm going to fight back!"

"Die!"

Li Zhi ignored Shen Yuan's words at all. Her toes, wrapped in white lace-trimmed cotton socks, suddenly exerted force, and the woody fragrance rippled in the warm sunlight with her movements.

Xiao San, who was resting on the table, suddenly opened her cat-like eyes wide.

As if he had anticipated the sneak attack, Shen Yuan suddenly clamped his five fingers around her slender ankle, which was suspended in the air, and his tiger's mouth pressed against the hollow of her ankle bone.

They really caught them.

In an instant, both of them were frozen in place.

The warmth from her palm seeped into her skin through the cotton socks, and for a moment she couldn't tell whether the woody aftertaste was warmer or the girl's skin was hotter.

A blush crept onto Li Zhi's ears, and a shy warmth instantly spread from her cheeks to her neck, turning her fair skin a pinkish hue.

"Let go...let go!"

Li Zhi moved her legs, but found that Shen Yuan's hand was still firmly gripping her ankle.

Unable to pull her leg back, the beautiful girl's ears flushed even more intensely: "Serran, let go!"

At this moment, Shen Yuan raised his head and looked intently at Li Zhi.

"You struck first, this was self-defense. Apologize and let me go."

"Dream on! I would never be like you, Thran... Ah!"

Li Zhi's words came to an abrupt halt with the sudden attack on the sole of his foot by his fingertips.

The moment Shen Yuan's fingertips touched the soles of his feet, Li Zhi sprang up as if electrocuted, the swivel chair screeching against the wooden floor.

She curled up in a ball, her back arched, and the hem of her school uniform was lifted up slightly as she struggled, revealing a faint glimpse of her waist.

"Ha... Shen Yuan, you... you... haha, bastard!"

The girl's hurried curses were mixed with broken laughter. Her lace stockings were rubbed askew as she struggled, revealing her pale pink heels.

The left leg, dangling in mid-air, kicked futilely, landing harmlessly on Shen Yuan's calf.

"Do you want to apologize?"

Shen Yuan smiled and increased the force.

"I was wrong! I was wrong! I was wrong!"

Li Zhi's voice suddenly rose in pitch, his instep arched into a crescent shape, and his calves trembled.

"Stop! Stop! I was wrong!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan stopped scratching his itch.

The beautiful girl, who had caught a moment's breath, was panting heavily. Her originally fair cheeks were now flushed as if they had been dipped in rouge, and even the tip of her nose was tinged with a light pink.

Shen Yuan's face flushed slightly, but he remained calm and said, "Where is the sincerity in your apology? What did I say before?"

"you!"

Li Zhi looked at Shen Yuan with a flushed face: "Only a pervert would make such a request!"

Before Li Zhi could finish speaking, she saw Shen Yuan's fingertips approach even closer, which startled her so much that she shrank back into the cushion, her arches taut like a fully drawn bow.

Her reddened arches trembled slightly, and the tops of her lace stockings were already rubbed askew, revealing faint finger marks on her ankles where Shen Yuan had clamped them.

"You, you're bullying me..."

The pretty girl mumbled with a nasal tone, the last syllable tinged with broken sobs, her hair falling as she lowered her head.

Li Zhi suddenly raised her reddened eyes and glanced at Shen Yuan: "You, you know perfectly well that I'm most ticklish..."

The last syllable lingered in her throat, her pearly teeth biting her lower lip, leaving crescent-shaped white marks on her cherry-colored lips.

"I……"

Shen Yuan softened.

He quickly let go of her hand.

Li Zhi suddenly pulled her long legs back and curled up in the swivel chair, her lace stockings bunched crookedly at the bottom of her feet, revealing her pale pink heels.

Li Zhi hugged her knees, turned her head away from Shen Yuan, and her hair clung messily to her sweaty neck.

The accusation, tinged with a nasal tone, was mixed with the faint gasps of breath.

"...That's too much!"
