A little girl at a magic school, she's a goofy troublemaker who can do anything.

Humanoid magic weapon? !

No wonder.

No wonder Li Wenyin felt that Zhu Yunxi's human-computer interaction was so strong, even more so than Ruiyuan's.

So it really was a human-machine interface.

People's perceptions are indeed very flexible and changeable. Before Li Wenyin knew that Zhu Yunxi was a magical artifact, she felt that Zhu Yunxi was a bit dull and strange.

Now that I know she's a magical artifact, I suddenly feel, hey, she can walk, jump, and talk, that's already amazing!

"I really didn't realize... It's so realistic and exquisite, it's actually a magical artifact."

Li Wenyin sighed, quietly opened the door and looked outside. She saw Zhu Yunxi half-leaning on the railing of the corridor outside the medical department downstairs, squinting her eyes.

It's like they've entered a standby mode, or maybe they've accidentally wrecked the medical department and been kicked out to wait.

Zhu Yunxi was clearly unaware of her mistake. She obediently lay there idly, observing the busy students coming and going downstairs. She softly nestled half of her face in the crook of her arm, leaving only the upper half exposed. Her overly clear and innocent eyes were fixed on the people downstairs.

"Shangguan Yu started giving her big data training a long time ago, hoping that she could become more human in terms of consciousness."

Yu Chi Quan tidied his clothes, closed the door, and came out, standing next to Li Wenyin as they watched Zhu Yunxi downstairs.

"Unfortunately, the technology is still not mature enough, so it is still very difficult for her to understand human consciousness and emotions."

"I understand," Li Wenyin said with admiration, "but Senior Sister Zhu looks exactly like a human now. That's amazing. It must be very difficult to make such a magical artifact."

"More or less. Her identity isn't a secret, but it hasn't been publicized either. Many student council members don't know she's a magical artifact."

Yu Chi Quan paused for a moment, then calmly threw out another bombshell.

"As for the cost of Zhu Yunxi, it seems to be one million per gram."

Li Wenyin: "?"

She almost lost her mind and her vision went black, and she fell straight off the fence.

"Hmm?" Yu Chi Quan reached out and pulled her by the back of her collar to steady her.

Li Wenyin's mind immediately went blank.

Holy crap, it's a million per gram!

She knew that the school was basically for the rich and powerful, and for some reason, many members of the student council were the richest of the rich and powerful.

But she was still shocked by the wealth of this group of people.

Oh my god, Young Master Shangguan and his precious darling worth hundreds of billions!

Li Wenyin's breathing became heavy, afraid that if her breathing was too heavy across the floor, she might accidentally blow away Zhu Yunxi's precious hair.

-

"Let's go," Yu Chi Quan reminded her, "to my office."

"Ah," Li Wenyin turned her head blankly, "What?" She hadn't recovered from the shock yet.

"You came to see me because you need something, didn't you?"

Yu Chiquan turned his head slightly in confusion, his eyes holding a mixture of doubt and a smile.

"Or are you really coming to sleep in my room?"

"Oh, oh, oh," Li Wenyin snapped out of her daze, remembering that she had important business to attend to. Her mind raced as she came up with a reason, "I'm not here to sleep, I'm here to see the president... to talk about life ideals and appreciate the beauty of nature."

Yuchi Quan: "..."

This sounds like another way of saying "sleep together".

Seeing that Yu Chiquan hesitated for no apparent reason, Li Wenyin added fuel to the fire and continued, "President, you see, we've known each other for quite a while, but we've rarely had a heart-to-heart talk. Today, the windows are bright and the sun is shining, so let's sit here at our desks and be completely honest with each other..."

Yuchi Quan: "..."

He became even more hesitant.

Every time she opens her mouth, she rambles on about all sorts of things, like "the windows are spotless and the desk is clean and tidy," but what kind of honesty is she talking about?

Why aren't you wavering?

Seeing that he was becoming increasingly wary and looking at her with an indescribable, complex expression, Li Wenyin thought that perhaps she hadn't been sincere enough.

"Was I too hasty?"

Li Wenyin said again.

She softened her voice and coaxed him gently, just as she always did when he was small.

"It's okay, we can take it slowly. I understand, there's a first time for everything..."

-

Student Council President's Office.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Li Wenyin and Yuchi Quan sat facing each other across a desk.

Yuchi Quan turned slightly to the side, squinting as he pondered.

Li Wenyin propped her elbows on the table and leaned over to ask, "President, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Yu Chi Quan shook his head.

He felt like his mind was dirty, as if he had heard a lot of vulgar language that a kitten his age shouldn't hear.

Li Wenyin rolled her eyes as she thought about how to gradually and thoroughly understand Youyou's affairs, learn about his relationship with Si Zeyi, and ideally, prevent Si Zeyi from being imprisoned.

Step by step, step by step, how do you mean step by step?

Li Wenyin once taught Yu Zhiyuan a seven-step method for making friends, and now she is also figuring out the key to it herself.

Got it!

When trying to get closer to someone, don't ask questions so abruptly at the beginning...

"Youyou, do you have a penchant for imprisoning people?"

"?"

-

It took Yuchi Quan a while to process what he heard before he realized he hadn't misheard.

He turned around, crossed his long legs, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and asked with a smile, "Why do you ask?"

"Friends...know each other's little preferences, right?" Li Wenyin explained, and even considerately defended him, "I understand! You don't need to worry too much."

Yuchi Quan: "What am I worried about?"

"Don't worry about how others will see you. Times have changed, and people's ideas are more open and tolerant. As long as you're honest and open to it, this fetish of imprisonment...is really nothing!"

Li Wenyin offered her advice in a kind and persuasive tone.

"..." Yu Chi Quan gave a soft "hmm" and said, "Go on."

He's able to listen to what I'm saying! It seems there's still hope for him!

Li Wenyin quickly pressed her advantage: "Well, actually, in this era where everyone has all sorts of bizarre tastes, for some people, being imprisoned by you might actually be a reward!"

"......Um."

Yu Chi Quan maintained his smile, listened patiently, and even took out a notebook from the drawer to take notes on the conversation in a very professional manner.

According to the original schedule, he had been working non-stop for several days, and this afternoon was reserved specifically for rest and sleep.

Li Wenyin was an unexpected arrival, but since she's here, we'll just give her the whole afternoon.

Li Wenyin became increasingly excited and talked incessantly, while Yu Chiquan remained patient, responding appropriately and taking careful notes.

-

Li Wenyin was very satisfied with Yuchi Quan's attitude.

What? It's still a very well-behaved cat!

She's still very teachable and obedient! Not as difficult to persuade as Li Wenyin had imagined.

She continued with a smile, "So, we should practice moderate, healthy, and proper imprisonment. We need to choose the right people and the right places. Inappropriate imprisonment is unacceptable!"

"..."

Her words sounded strange, but upon closer inspection, they made perfect sense.

Yu Chiquan paused slightly, carefully considering his words, before continuing to write.

After talking for a while, her throat was a little dry. Li Wenyin looked at him expectantly and asked, "How was it? Did you gain any insights?"

"We must master the correct and healthy methods of imprisonment; extreme imprisonment is unacceptable," Yuchi Quan reported, then smiled and asked, "So, Wenyin, how should I properly imprison her?"

"Well, let me think... it should be reasonable... wait," Li Wenyin suddenly realized, looking at him in disbelief, "You want to imprison someone?"

Yu Chi Quan looked up at her: "I have."

"Who? When?" Li Wenyin asked anxiously.

Could it be that she has missed the opportunity to persuade him, and that there has been some conflict between Yuchi Quan and Si Zeyi?

Yuchi Quan: "You."

"what?"

Li Wenyin was stunned.

"No, me? Huh, when?"

"So you didn't come to discuss this with me because you already knew this..." Yu Chiquan looked at his handwritten instructions on reasonable and healthy methods of imprisonment with a hint of regret, and then asked, "Do I have to be honest about this too?"

"?" Li Wenyin almost thought she had misheard. What was he asking? "Of course, you want to imprison me, you know?"

Were they talking about something very polite and courteous, something that required you to defer to me?

Yu Chi Quan smiled gently and confessed honestly.

"It was a long time ago, the time your clouds sent me up to the sky."

"I did have a brief thought that I wanted to lock you up and keep you by my side."

"You tormented me all night, and I do want you to pay me back a little."

Li Wenyin gasped.

That's way too vengeful!

It's been so long! What has he been thinking about all this time? Has he been repeatedly considering and confirming whether it's feasible?!

Wow, you evil cat...

Yuchi Quan smiled gently and kindly, as if he were harmless.

-

"And then what happened?" Li Wenyin asked cautiously.

Yu Chi Quan smiled gently, expressing slight regret, and said, "It was just a thought at the moment; I never intended to implement it."

Li Wenyin felt a little relieved.

"But you gave me a lot of suggestions today," Yu Chiquan glanced down at the health imprisonment manual he had written, "Hmm... the time is during your free time, and the place... you mentioned my office is bright and sunny, so how about the office?"

Li Wenyin: "..."

"Any other suggestions?" Yu Chi Quan tapped his finger lightly on the table, examining the instruction manual he had written. "Sorry, I forgot to ask, what kind of imprisonment method do you prefer?"

He showed great patience and respect for Li Wenyin's opinions.

"President, again," Li Wenyin changed her mind, "could we talk about something healthy and positive?"

"Hmm? That's right."

Yu Chi Quan smiled and underlined the title written on the paper with his pen, then read it aloud.

"You taught me the methods of reasonable and healthy imprisonment."

Just because someone says "healthy" doesn't mean they'll become healthy just by being imprisoned!

What on earth is he saying?! Oh no, what was I saying before?!

Li Wenyin closed her eyes in sorrow, her heart roaring.

Yu Chi Quan watched her with an appreciative smile as she looked at him, filled with self-reproach and regret. A mischievous glint appeared in his eyes, and he chuckled softly.

Upon hearing this laughter, Li Wenyin immediately realized that he didn't really intend to imprison her. He was just going along with it for fun, chatting with her for fun, and watching her feel pain and remorse was also fun.

Li Wenyin: "..."

She was truly impressed.

-

This wasn't the first time Li Wenyin had sensed that subtle sadistic vibe emanating from Yuchi Quan. After several encounters, she felt that this person probably really had some kind of desire within him.

The novel describes him as arrogant, controlling, scheming, and perverted, which isn't entirely without merit; there's some truth to it.

Li Wenyin had actually felt this vague, suggestive S-sense several times, but she had never confirmed it and couldn't get angry.

Because whenever she began to have doubts, Yu Chi Quan would always find a moment that made Li Wenyin feel that he was so cute.

For example, right now.

Seeing that Li Wenyin remained silent, Yuchi Quan also kept quiet.

He shifted his gaze with slight curiosity to a pot of sunflowers on the tabletop watch.

That was a sunflower that Li Wenyin gave him when she was learning plant magic. It had a smiling face on its head and was swaying its body to produce little rays of sunlight.

Yu Chi Quan stared intently at it, and when their eyes met, he suddenly reached out slowly, his curiosity getting the better of him, and gently pried off a petal.

He spread his long, slender fingers slightly, gently pinching a sunflower petal between the pads of his two fingers, and then twisting it between them.

Presumably feeling good about it, Yuchi Quan went even further, pinching the petals and trying to pull them out.

They really have nothing better to do than pluck flower petals.

The next second, he got burned because he was being impulsive.

The tiny rays of sunlight silently landed on Yuchi Quan's fingers, burning his fair and slender fingers red.

Yu Chi Quan tucked his fingers away slightly, looked innocently at the sunflower, and then at Li Wenyin sitting in front of him.

Although he didn't say anything, his eyes, filled with hesitation and grievance, clearly said, "Look, the flowers you planted are burning me."

It really looks like a cat that got punished for misbehaving and is now innocently seeking its owner's judgment.

Oh, so cute.

"..."

wrong.

Li Wenyin was heartbroken and disappointed in herself, lamenting her lack of self-confidence and sighing to the heavens.

Yuchi Quan smiled knowingly.

-

"I promised you I'd make it up to you, and I meant what I said," Li Wenyin shamefully conceded. "Is imprisonment the only option?"

She needs to mentally prepare herself and choose an auspicious day to face it.

"I haven't decided yet, I'll keep it for now," Yu Chi Quan said gently.

He then asked, "Since you didn't come because you knew what I was thinking at the time, why are you suddenly asking me this?"

"It's nothing, just asking. I had a nightmare," Li Wenyin thought for a moment, "Besides me, have you ever thought about imprisoning anyone else?"

"I only detain people according to the rules and regulations."

Yuchi Quan answered.

"You are the only one for whom I am not legitimately entitled to be with you."
