"..."

Li Wenyin's feelings were complicated.

On one hand, she was a little touched. Wow, she was actually his only one! She felt a little honored.

On the other hand, he's the only one who actively wanted to be imprisoned!

What are you even moved by? You're crazy!

However, upon learning this, Li Wenyin inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that thankfully, he probably hadn't done anything wrong.

Out of a kind of unfounded trust, Li Wenyin always felt that since Yuchi Quan had said so, he wouldn't do anything to her. The sense of reliability that Yuchi Quan gave her made her not even afraid of him.

Perhaps it's because although he always puts on a professional, gentle, and kind facade, he is genuinely gentle at heart.

Li Wenyin remained silent. After a moment of silence, Yuchi Quan asked, "Did you have a nightmare?"

"Yes, I dreamt that you committed many evil deeds and were overthrown," Li Wenyin answered honestly.

Yuchi Quan: "..."

He was speechless for a while, thinking to himself, "Can't you dream about me in a nice way? I finally managed to get him into her dream, why is he like this?"

In addition, Yuchi Quan noticed a point.

"Why is this a nightmare for you? Is it because the nightmare is about me committing evil, or because the nightmare is about me being overthrown?"

"You're the one who'll definitely be overthrown; the important thing is you."

Li Wenyin answered without hesitation.

She had viewed him through the lens of a novel from the beginning, knowing he would do evil, so Li Wenyin wasn't surprised if he did.

But later I gradually realized that he didn't seem to have it, so naturally I didn't want him to be overthrown for no reason. That would be terrifying, you know, he was the model student council president that so many students longed for.

Li Wenyin spoke very directly and didn't think it was anything special, but Yu Chiquan, upon hearing the answer, suddenly fell silent, blinking his eyes in a daze.

He looked at Li Wenyin quietly without saying a word. The cunning and wickedness in his eyes vanished in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, he looked somewhat bewildered and helpless, like a butterfly flapping its wings and startling still water.

Li Wenyin had seen this before.

When he was a little boy named Muyou, Li Wenyin would pull him along to draw with everyone, even though he was drawing alone.

He was in a similar state at that time, silent and still, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

Even if one knew in the past, it would have been difficult to truly connect Yuchi Quan with that little boy named Muyou.

Looking at it now, it really is one person, almost enlarged to the same scale.

The way they looked when they were burned by sincerity was exactly the same.

He's just a teenager who's only recently turned eighteen.

-

Li Wen chuckled, then leaned in with a cheeky grin and asked, "President? Youyou? Why aren't you saying anything? Did you get touched when I said you're important? Did you?"

"..."

What a lousy, dog-like thing.

Yu Chi Quan smiled kindly, reached out and pressed her head back as she leaned in, avoiding the question and asking instead, "So you had a nightmare and came straight to me to verify it?"

"yes."

Li Wenyin plopped back into her chair and answered directly again, even shamelessly adopting a serious demeanor.

"You know, I've always been gifted with extraordinary abilities. If this nightmare happens to have some kind of precognitive quality, of course I have to give you a good reminder."

"You..." Yu Chiquan was about to speak.

Li Wenyin added, "I'm very worried about you."

Yuchi Quan was speechless.

Li Wenyin's genuine shamelessness has been invincible, and she has never suffered a defeat to this day.

-

She sat there happily, feeling the conversation was going quite well, and then asked, "Youyou, I'm quite curious about someone, do you know him?"

"Who?"

"The Southern Si family, Si Ze Yi."

"Oakwood Academy, third year," Yu Chiquan pulled out a file. "Coincidentally, I've received quite a bit of news about him in the last few days."

"How so?" Li Wenyin asked, leaning closer.

Yu Chi Quan: "Shangguan Yu reported that Si Zeyi has been going to the medical department to get medicine for a week straight."

"What medicine? Can you tell me?" Li Wenyin had just run into Si Zeyi and saw him coming out of the medical department room.

"It's nothing," Yu Chiquan said, looking down at the report. "A common magical potion to help you sleep and calm your mind."

Li Wenyin asked curiously, "Do I need to go to the medical department to get this medicine for a whole week?"

Obviously not.

Yu Chi Quan: "That's the suspicious point. Shangguan Yu had already prescribed him enough nourishing medicine for half a year a week ago, but he still comes every day, as if he has forgotten that he has already come."

forget......

Li Wenyin thought of Si Zeyi from the novel, whose future was filled with amnesia and madness, and he suffered terribly.

She thought Si Zeyi's amnesia and madness were side effects of being imprisoned, but wasn't that the case? Now that Si Zeyi is out and about without being imprisoned, he's already showing signs of forgetfulness?

And this isn't just ordinary forgetfulness, is it? How can someone forget that they've picked up their medicine every day, yet remember to pick it up on time every single day?

it's wired.

"We also received several complaint letters," Yu Chiquan continued, "which said he doesn't walk properly and keeps bumping into people."

"I saw him in the medical department. He bumped into Senior Sister Zhu before leaving," Li Wenyin continued.

She pondered, "This Si Zeyi is so strange. Could something be wrong with his health?"

Bizarre forgetfulness and bizarre accidental bumping into people while walking.

Li Wenyin still remembers the complicated look in Si Zeyi's eyes when he looked at her back then.

Why?

"Therefore, I had Shangguan Yu examine his physical condition under the guise of a routine check-up," Yuchi Quan said. "Everything is normal, no illnesses whatsoever. The only abnormalities are poor sleep and neurasthenia. Considering that the midterm exams were recently held, this could be attributed to post-exam anxiety, but..."

But he always felt something was wrong.

"But Si Zeyi has never had any exam anxiety before, right?" Li Wenyin chimed in.

Yu Chi Quan glanced at her.

"Hmm. Based on my understanding of Si Zeyi, never."

Li Wenyin asked thoughtfully, "Youyou, how much do you know about Si Zeyi, or the Si family?"

"The Si family basically doesn't participate in any factional struggles. They develop steadily, without being particularly glorious, but their strength lies in stability and progress, which allows their family magic to be passed down smoothly."

Yuchi Quan spoke gently and in detail.

"I have virtually no contact with the Si family. I only met them at a banquet a few years ago. The Si family currently has one son and one daughter. In addition to Si Zeyi, they also have a younger sister."
