Mr. Yan, wake up! Your wife isn't a delicate little flower.

"Buzz buzz buzz".

The phone on the bedside table kept vibrating.

Yan Mingchuan, who was lying down, glanced to the side and said, "If you're busy, you can answer the phone first."

"fine."

Cheng Xihe did not stop what she was doing and continued to give him acupuncture.

The phone rang again.

Cheng Xihe reached out and turned it off.

"After making so many calls, it must be something urgent," Yan Mingchuan's muffled voice came from under the pillow.

Cheng Xihe pressed down on Yan Mingchuan's leg and inserted a needle: "Alright, don't rush, finish your business first."

"Um."

Yan Mingchuan didn't say anything more.

"hiss."

After an unknown amount of time, Yan Mingchuan felt a burning sensation in his legs, and the pain began to spread.

Cheng Xihe leaned closer and asked, "How is it? Are you feeling it again?"

"It hurts a lot," Yan Mingchuan gritted his teeth and uttered the two words.

Seeing this, Cheng Xihe nodded: "That's right, it means your leg is almost healed."

"Um."

Yan Mingchuan was wearing pajamas, revealing his fair arms.

His well-defined knuckles gripped the pillow tightly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Cheng Xihe raised an eyebrow, took a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "It's good that you feel anything."

"Thank you, Xihe."

Yan Mingchuan thanked him, but he had to force himself to say it.

Cheng Xihe chuckled: "Come on, don't thank me. If you're feeling unwell, just say so. If you can bear it, then just endure it."

"Um……"

After the acupuncture was finished, Cheng Xihe patted Yan Mingchuan's legs and said, "Your legs are a bit thicker than when I first met you."

"Yeah?"

Yan Mingchuan lay on the bed, covered in sweat, completely exhausted.

"Of course, this means the treatment is on the right track and the treatment is effective." After Cheng Xihe finished speaking, he called Su Jin over.

Su Jin rushed in anxiously: "Sister-in-law, is Brother Yan alright? I was so worried!"

"Not bad. Take him to wash up. I'll go back to my room first." Cheng Xihe wiped the needles while packing up the things.

Su Jin quickly nodded: "Okay, okay, I'll go right away."

After tidying up, Cheng Xihe smiled at Yan Mingchuan and said, "I'm going back next door now."

"Yes, thank you, Xihe."

"You're too kind, Mr. Yan."

Back in his room, Cheng Xihe returned the call.

"What do you need me for?"

The caller was Bai Ce.

Bai Ce gathered around and said, "Boss, who did this today? My men are a bit slow. We found the owner of the haunted house, but something feels off."

"Let me log in and check."

Cheng Xihe tossed his phone aside, put on his headphones, and then turned on his computer.

"What do you mean by 'on the list'?" Bai Ce was still completely confused.

After logging onto the spider web, Cheng Xihe glanced at the content, then smiled and rested his chin on his hand, watching the computer screen with great interest.

"Have you forgotten what we do? Don't you know what a spider web is? Have you gone mad from coming back to be the CEO?"

We've already found out who did it. Didn't we send the evidence to your email? Didn't you even check it?

"Ah, yes!"

Bai Ce patted his head and said blankly, "Hehe, boss, I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it."

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take a look."

Cheng Xihe tapped the table with his finger, a smile on his face.

A short while later, Bai Ce's scream rang out: "Holy crap, you Dunnlian, you're infuriating! It's that bastard!"

"You know him?" Cheng Xihe asked curiously.

Bai Ce gritted his teeth: "We're more than just acquaintances, we're like enemies from eight lifetimes ago! I'm so angry!"

"It seems you two are quite familiar with each other."

Cheng Xihe shrugged: "Since that's the case, you can handle it yourself. I won't interfere."

"I don't need your help, boss. I'll handle it myself." After saying that, Bai Ce hung up the phone in a hurry.

Cheng Xihe picked up her phone and opened the group chat.

Mu Xiaoting: Ahhh! Sister-in-law, it's Xiaxia's midnight snack, it smells absolutely amazing! @Cheng Xihe

Nanxi: Let me tell you, Xihe, Xiaxia's cooking is super delicious! It's such a shame you didn't get to try it. @ChengXihe

Huo Ying: It's delicious! [Image]

Qin Shengxia: Sister, do you want some? I'll make it for you when you get back. @Cheng Xihe

Cheng Xihe: ?

Cheng Xihe: You guys are eating quite well behind my back.

Nanxi: Sister~

Cheng Xihe: I'll deal with you when we get back.

Turning off his phone, Cheng Xihe leaned back lazily in his office chair.

The next morning, Cheng Xihe went downstairs and happened to meet Yan Mingchuan drinking medicinal food.

"Is it good?" Cheng Xihe sat down next to Yan Mingchuan and took the bowl of noodles with minced meat sauce from in front of him.

She ate with relish.

Yan Mingchuan: "It's alright, I'm used to it now."

"That's fine then."

Cheng Xihe didn't ask any more questions and buried himself in his food.

Yan Mingchuan, who was standing nearby, asked, "I'll take you to school later, and I'll go to work on the way."

"Okay, thank you, President Yan." Cheng Xihe nodded and continued eating.

Yan Mingchuan: "There's no need to be so formal."

"I'm used to it," Cheng Xihe replied casually.

Upon arriving at school, Cheng Xihe carried his books into the classroom.

As soon as I entered, I saw Sun Danfeng and Feng Zhiying sitting in the first row.

Seeing Cheng Xihe enter, Feng Zhiying pointed to the seat opposite her: "Xihe, I've saved you a seat."

"Um?"

Cheng Xihe glanced at Shu Shu sitting next to him, then smiled at Feng Zhiying: "Thank you."

You're too kind.

"Come sit here, Xihe." Shu Shu patted the seat next to her with a smile.

Sun Danfeng was particularly unhappy: "What are you doing? Why did you save her a seat!"

"Xiao Feng, we're all classmates, what's wrong with saving her a seat?" Feng Zhiying looked at Sun Danfeng with confusion.

Sun Danfeng was furious: "You know perfectly well that I don't get along with her, yet you still saved a seat for her. Are you deliberately trying to annoy me?!"

"Xiao Feng, there's no need to get angry over such a small thing," Feng Zhiying comforted her from the side.

Sun Danfeng suddenly stood up.

The chairs in the large classroom are rows of movable chairs that can be folded up.

As she stood up, the chair bumped into the back of her legs.

Sun Danfeng pulled the chair aside and glared angrily at Feng Zhiying: "What's this little thing? You're my best friend! You're siding with her!"

"No, Xiaofeng, don't be angry, sit down." Feng Zhiying helplessly grabbed Sun Danfeng.

The surrounding classmates all turned to look.

Even Cheng Xihe put down what he was holding and looked over with great interest.

Seeing that Sun Danfeng remained unmoved, Feng Zhiying pleaded, "Xiaofeng, I beg you, the teacher is coming soon."

"I'm so angry! I'm not sitting with you anymore, get out of my way!"

After Sun Danfeng sat down, seeing that everyone was still looking at him, he angrily said, "What are you looking at!"

The students around them, who had been inexplicably yelled at, were not going to stand for this injustice and started gossiping about it.

"What are you pretending for? Do you really think you're so great?"

"I think he's just jealous of Cheng Xihe. Well, she's beautiful, after all."

"Absolutely! I think she's just pure jealousy!"

"It's always been like this; I've disliked him for a long time."

"I'm speechless. He doesn't want to make friends himself, and he won't let Feng Zhiying make friends either."

"He's too possessive."

Facing everyone's pointing fingers, Sun Danfeng's face turned red with anger: "What do you know? If you say another word, I'll sue you for defamation."

"Xiao Feng, don't be angry anymore, I'm leaving." Feng Zhiying stood up, feeling wronged.

Cheng Xihe, who was next to Shu Shu, also stood up and pulled Feng Zhiying: "Come sit here, I don't care about this seat."

"Cheng, listen to me."

Feng Zhiying came to this school not only to study, but also to build good relationships with her classmates and teachers.

After all, many of my classmates come from families with connections.

After Cheng Xihe's incident, Feng Zhiying felt that this girl was not simple and had great abilities.

But Xiao Feng just doesn't like her, and she's inexplicably jealous, which is why she hasn't gotten involved with Cheng yet.

"Xiao Feng has just been in a bad mood lately, I..." Feng Zhiying grabbed Cheng Xihe's arm.

Cheng Xihe patted her hand with a smile: "It's okay, you can sit here, I have plenty of seats."

"Xihe, my classmate."

Yin Haisen patted the seat next to him: "Come sit here with me, my seat is pretty good, right in the center."

Yin Haisen, who was sitting in the third row, saw that his opportunity had come and greeted everyone with a smile and great enthusiasm.

Tian Ce looked at him in surprise: "Dude, what's the difference between you and a simp?"

"What do you know!"

Yin Haisen glanced at him, then looked at Cheng Xihe: "Come on."

"It's okay, I'll just sit in the second row."

I don't know what happened, but all the girls were sitting in the first row, the second row was empty, and the rest of the people were sitting in the third row and beyond.

It's hilarious.

Cheng Xihe walked behind Shu Shu and sat down: "I'll sit here."

"Okay, Xihe." Shu Shu smiled.

"Ha, another bootlicker," a girl in the far corner said sarcastically.

Cheng Xihe glanced at her but didn't say anything.

Shu Shu retorted fiercely, "What kind of person are you if all you can do is yell? If you're so capable, why don't you become the top scholar in the imperial examination!"

"Me! You!"

The man was speechless and dared not speak again.

"Knock knock knock".

The teacher tapped on the door with a small stick: "Didn't you hear the school bell? What are you all making so much noise in the classroom?"

"The teacher is here!"

Someone gave a heads-up, and everyone immediately fell silent.

The teacher strode in and introduced himself: "Let's begin the lesson."

When the class ended, Cheng Xihe stood up.

Shu Shu quickly followed, "Where are we going, Xi He? Take me with you."

"Take a break and go to the restroom."

After Cheng Xi finished speaking, he turned and left.

Seeing this, Shu Shu asked again, "Do you need me to go with you?"

This class is just a ten-minute break; we'll continue later.

Cheng Xihe waved his hand: "No need."

As soon as Cheng Xihe reached the door of the women's restroom, he heard cries coming from inside...
