You're my wife, don't doubt it!

On Friday, September 17th, around noon, someone requested a song for Xu Qingwei on the school radio, which became a minor topic of conversation in the grade that day.

After school that day, Zhang Zhengkai called Xiao Yao and asked him to hang out the next day.

Xiao Yao was quite surprised, because he thought that even if the last meeting had reached a partial understanding, there was absolutely no possibility that the two of them would return to being good friends.

Although he didn't quite understand, Xiao Yao agreed to go after consulting Yu Luying.

On Saturday, Xiao Yao and Yu Luying met with Zhang Zhengkai. The three of them listened to the air raid siren, had lunch, accompanied Yu Luying shopping for a while, went to the arcade with Zhang Zhengkai, and finally watched a movie together.

During this time, the two tacitly agreed to never mention Shen Jie's name again.

Shen Jie used this day to visit her grandmother—Xiao Yao only found out about this after he got home, and then complained that Shen Jie didn't take him with her.

"How can I take you with me?" Shen Jie asked. "How am I supposed to explain Yu Luying's identity behind your back to my grandmother?"

"OK."

On Sunday, September 19, after the morning Mass, Shen Jie accompanied Xiao Yao, who in turn accompanied Yu Luying to her first official action after joining the organization.

The team consisted of five members: Xiao Yao, Yu Luying, Shen Jie, Yu Bo, and Daiyu. Their mission was to prevent an invasion of the Victims' Temple—intelligence intercepted in advance by the organization's agents.

The five engaged in a skirmish with a six-man enemy squad, led once again by the Earl of Nottington. Ultimately, the target, Shadow, was successfully protected, but they failed to kill or capture any member of the enemy squad.

"Damn it, they got away again!" Yu Luying stomped her feet in anger.

He used to be someone who conquered the Hall and fought to the death with Shadow, but now he has suddenly become the guardian of the Hall and fights alongside Shadow. No matter how Xiao Yao thinks about it, it still feels strange.

What exactly is wrong...?

“I always felt that the Earl of Nottingham had gone easy on me—on us.” Xiao Yao said this at the post-operation debriefing meeting.

The other four, however, disagreed.

On Monday, September 20th, after the skateboarding club activity ended after school, Shen Jie encountered a senior high school student who kept pestering her.

Of course, he was not a member of the skateboarding club—school rules stipulated that senior high school students should not participate in any club activities.

Knowing that it was inconvenient for Xiao Yao to show his face, he entrusted Daiyu and Zhang Jialong to teach the kid a lesson and give him a warning.

On Wednesday, September 22, after school, "Rainy Day" did not show up for the second poetry club activity as promised.

Xiao Yao sent a member to check on Lin Yu in his classroom. The person returned and reported that Lin Yu had developed symptoms of narcolepsy in the afternoon and had been taken to the hospital.

"About an hour and a half ago," the man said. "That's what the student on duty in their class told me."

"Investigate further, report back," Xiao Yao said.

"Huh?" The man was taken aback: "What did you say, club president?"

"It's nothing," Xiao Yao waved his hand and said, "Why don't we do some light exercise first, Teacher Yuan?"

In other words, this is the fourth victim of narcolepsy to appear at St. Francis' School? Xiao Yao wondered.

Chapter 373 My Wife's Love Letter II

2023-11-06

The narcolepsy incident has finally caused a small-scale panic on campus, but overall it is still under control for the time being.

On that very day, Shen Jie quietly stirred up another big scandal for Xiao Yao.

When this happened, Xiao Yao had just finished the horrific ordeal of two consecutive math classes. He was lying face down on the desk, his arms draped over the desk like the neck of a plesiosaur, his face pressed against the plesiosaur's neck, and his eyes admiring his deskmate's plump, rounded legs hanging under the hem of her long school skirt.

"The old days are gone, and I will have my own wife soon. I will show her photos and tell her about you, my classmate." Xiao Yao silently sang in his heart: "Who met you, so sentimental? Who comforted you when you cried? Who tied up your long hair? Who made your wedding dress?"

"Aren't you annoying?" Yu Luying suddenly turned to him and said, "Can't you just give me ten minutes of peace and quiet?"

"?" Xiao Yao explained, "No, I didn't do it on purpose. Haven't you ever had this experience? It's like some voices keep going around in your head, and you can't stop them no matter what you try..."

"If you keep having voices that aren't your own going around in your head and you can't get rid of them, you'll go crazy sooner or later." Yu Luying ignored him and continued rummaging through the underside of the table.

Besides, it's quiet, Xiao Yao thought.

There's no such thing as quiet during the ten-minute break between classes.

At this moment, both inside the classroom and in the corridor outside the window, there was a bustling and noisy atmosphere.

Xiao Yao didn't mind the noise, because he felt that it was the noise that gave him a sense of vitality and energy, and made him strongly feel that he was still alive.

Every now and then, the boy could hear the sound of someone running and shouting down the corridor.

This suddenly reminded him of a conversation he had with Shen Jie not long after they met.

"Don't you have any crash mirrors in your school's hallways?"

"No, none of us were running in the hallway."

Now, this former rich girl has transferred to a school where "people run in the hallways." I wonder if she can adapt.

I asked her several times, and each time she smiled and replied in Shanghai dialect, "It's fine, it's fine."

Is it really "pretty good"?

Lost in thought, Xiao Yao didn't notice that the commotion coming from the direction of the classroom door was much louder than usual.

If he noticed, he would probably turn around to see what was happening at the door.

It's often said that Chinese people love to watch a spectacle, but that's nonsense.

Because people all over the world love to watch a spectacle.

In short, because he didn't notice the unusual noise at the classroom door, he was still intently admiring Yu Luying's beautiful neck.

Just then, a hand landed on Xiao Yao's shoulder from behind, which startled him slightly.

"Ugh! What are you doing—" Xiao Yao said.

"There's a girl looking for you at the door." Wang Yang innocently pointed behind him, then turned and walked away.

Girl, looking for me?

Xiao Yao stood up from his seat, completely bewildered, and walked towards the classroom door amidst whispers.

His first thought was that Zhao Xiaomei was looking for him. He wondered if her other personality had been resurrected, or if some lingering spirit was causing her to revert to her old ways.

But he quickly dismissed this conjecture.

He overheard people around him saying, "What's she doing in our class?"

"Why would it be her who came to see him?"

"Who is it? Is it that transfer student from recently?"

"Yes, that's the one. Let me tell you, she's incredibly popular."

Xiao Yao felt a chill run down his spine, instinctively held his breath, and quickened his pace.

Then he saw that, sure enough, it was Shen Jie peeking in from the classroom door, looking like she wanted to come in but didn't dare to.

Her appearance has already attracted the attention of many onlookers.

Xiao Yao was stunned.

To avoid suspicion and keep a low profile, he not only had Shen Jie enroll under an alias, but also never had any direct contact with her on campus during those twenty-odd days, which was practically a case of protesting too much.

The secret rooftop gathering at noon was also meticulously planned to counter surveillance and reconnaissance. He never walked with her to or from school, but always kept a distance of several hundred meters, either letting her go first or walking ahead of Yu Luying himself.

Even when there were guys who were entangled with her, she would ask Brother Long and his friends to help her out.

And now, she actually came to my class.

Find yourself.

They just openly and publicly named themselves when they were looking for me.

"What are you trying to do?" Xiao Yao lowered his voice to a whisper, gritting his teeth, "Go back now!"

At this moment, he only regretted that he could not secretly communicate with Shen Jie.

“Hello, Xiao Yao,” Shen Jie said clearly and loudly, “Let me introduce myself, my name is Xu Qingwei.”

As he spoke, he gave a slight bow.

"Ah, hello, hello." Xiao Yao had no choice but to return the greeting and play along, asking, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Perhaps I'm being a bit presumptuous," Shen Jie said, producing a light pink envelope as if by magic. "I have something for you, please accept it!"

As he spoke, he formally held the envelope with both hands and handed it to Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao's mind went blank, and he could only subconsciously and woodenly take the letter from Shen Jie's hand.

He knew in his heart that at this moment, at least half of the eyes in the class were on him.

"Xu Qingwei actually wrote him a letter?"

"No way, another one?"

"Probably not, it's probably a polite rejection."

"I heard that Xu Qingwei is very classy. When boys write her love letters, she always politely replies and politely declines them."

"They say he's gentlemanly... but could he just be someone who likes to keep a backup plan?"

"But doesn't he already have Yu Luying?"

"They even stick together all the time, even when they go to the toilet."
