I really don't want to date a girl addicted to the internet!

"I suggest you don't talk to me unless it's absolutely necessary. I find you more agreeable." The girl simply turned her gaze to the star chart on the table. Once she had filled her stomach, she wanted to join the ranks of data workers.

"So you've started to like me lately? That's great! You probably don't know, but before, I was worried every day that you'd suddenly kill me." The boy patted his chest exaggeratedly.

"You weren't wrong to worry about that," Ye Shuang said with a hint of malice.

"Master Ye, I'm actually quite curious about your opinion on the corridor?" Cheng Fei changed the subject.

"I'm not interested in games; I only played with you, Miss." The girl's expression was indifferent.

"I know, what I mean is, do you believe the corridor really exists?" Cheng Fei observed her beautiful face and sighed inwardly, thinking that she truly deserved her 8-point charm.

……

184. Miriam's Plan Part Two

"Let's leave that aside for now. I'm just here to keep an eye on you for Miss and take a vacation at the same time." Ye Shuang looked at him for a moment, then looked away uncomfortably.

"Master Ye, you really are stubborn."

"What do you mean?"

"I know how much Xuanqi likes you, so there's absolutely no need to worry about that."

"Talking to me won't work; I only care about your actions." Ye Shuang's smile turned cold.

"As the old saying goes, all talk and no action makes a fake skill, all action and no talk makes a foolish skill, only talking and action make a good skill..."

"Nonsense." Before he could finish speaking, the girl said this and went to Shen Xi's side to learn about the steps for calculating the coordinates.

The boy, unfazed by the cold shoulder, shook his head. Noticing that Nagasaki Asuna was secretly watching him, he shrugged at her, devoured the chicken burger in a few bites, and then, not satisfied, grabbed two chicken drumsticks and three chicken wraps to eat.

Nagasaki Asuna took a new cup of cola, secretly swapped it with the one she had drunk from, and then gave hers to Cheng Fei, who accepted it without hesitation under her secretly pleased gaze.

Perhaps because he attacked Nagasaki Asuna twice today, the [Stamina - Rapid Recovery] skill has made the boy eat more than usual.

After Cheng Fei devoured another beef burger, Milian was stunned. "Junior, you can eat so much!"

"As expected, he's a pig." Shen Xi commented sarcastically.

“It’s normal for us martial artists to have a big appetite, right, Master Ye?” Cheng Fei looked to the other side.

"I'm sorry, we're different." Ye Shuang, who hadn't intended to speak, cut him off with a polite smile.

“You have cheat codes.” Cheng Fei stared at her, looking her up and down.

The fact that someone with 889 attributes can still maintain the appearance of a delicate young girl and has not significantly increased their appetite suggests that this is also some kind of extraordinary ability.

Regardless, after filling their stomachs, the four of them got busy. The only onlooker, Miriam, scratched her head, looking awkward like an outsider. "Junior, why didn't you give me a few bills to calculate?"

"Senior, your role is logistics, and your task is to cheer everyone on," Cheng Fei said seriously.

"I see." Miriam breathed a sigh of relief.

The other three girls all remained silent.

If we were to rank the Sakura Club members by academic performance, then Miriam would be the one who single-handedly dragged down the Corridor Research Club's overall level.

Feeding the data she processes to the model might actually pollute the AI.

……

After finishing his work, Cheng Fei went back to his cabin to wash up.

The luxury of the Miriam was beyond his imagination before boarding the ship. The boy even had the illusion that he was more comfortable on the ship than when he stayed in Miriam's villa.

Just as the young man, wrapped in a bath towel and steaming hot, stepped out of the bathroom and breathed in the pleasant air from the combined effects of the air conditioning and humidifier, thinking to himself how good it is to be rich, the cabin door was opened with a key card.

"Holy crap! What are you doing, senior?" the boy exclaimed in surprise.

"What are you afraid of, junior? I'm not interested in men." Miriam mysteriously closed the door.

“That makes sense…” the boy said frankly, since he was wearing a towel around his waist anyway.

The blonde, blue-eyed British girl stared intently at his waist and swallowed hard.

"What are you looking at, senior?" the boy asked hesitantly.

"Junior, you should put some clothes on. Your abs are too stimulating." Miriam covered her eyes and turned around.

"Didn't you say you weren't interested in men?"

"It's exciting even if you're not interested."

The boy opened his mouth, but had nothing to say.

After getting dressed, he looked at the blonde girl who was honestly covering her eyes and facing away from him, and asked, "So, senior, what brings you here?"

“I’m here to discuss the battle plan with you,” Miriam said, eagerly approaching.

Cheng Fei paused for a second before remembering how he had tricked Miriam into lending him the yacht.

British lesbians truly haven't forgotten their original aspirations.

“This is Shen Xi’s spare key for cabin number 1.” Miriam handed him a card.

"Okay." The boy put it away without making a sound.

"Let me tell you the main event first. I plan to stage an accident on the way back," Miriam said in a low voice, her eyes shining.

"What accident?" Cheng Fei couldn't help but think of the story from last time when she caused a power outage at the villa, only to find herself the one who got scared.

"On the return trip, Sebastian will have the Miriam deviate from its course and run aground on my private island. That island is completely undeveloped and in a pristine state, with even venomous snakes and wild animals roaming there. Of course, don't worry, there will be rescue ships on standby in the nearby sea, so it will be absolutely safe."

"What do you want to do?" Cheng Fei became a little serious, not expecting her to be so unscrupulous.

"Hmph, of course it's about everyone surviving on a deserted island together, junior. Have you ever heard of the suspension bridge effect?" Miriam said smugly.

I've heard a little about it.

"That's good. In short, we'll play it by ear when the time comes, you know what I mean." Miriam said, opening the wine cabinet in the corner, taking out a bottle of red wine of unknown origin, pouring two glasses with its fragrant aroma, handing one to Cheng Fei, and elegantly clinking glasses with him, "Junior, I wish us success this time."

"Okay." Seeing the girl gulp down a big mouthful, Cheng Fei also forced himself to take a mouthful.

After finishing her drink, Miriam covered her forehead and frowned. "I'm suddenly so sleepy. Let's talk about other things tomorrow. I'm going back now, junior."

"Take care, senior."

Cheng Fei watched her figure disappear and wondered if she was a poor drinker.

It was 11 p.m., but Cheng Fei didn't feel sleepy. After all, he had been going to bed around 1 or 2 a.m. lately, and he was usually still reading and studying at this time.

The boy thought for a moment and decided not to read a book today. Instead, he went out of the cabin to the flybridge, which is the open-air deck at the top of the yacht, to look out at the sea.

The sea was completely dark, with no moonlight. The yacht was speeding towards the area where the corridor was located. He couldn't hear the engine and felt as if he were immersed in a thick darkness.

Cheng Fei stood by the railing with his hands in his pockets, deep in thought.

If he were to go to the lower deck now and take away the small boat that the Miriam came with, wouldn't he be able to escape Academy City directly?

They could live a free and unrestrained life without Lin Xuanqi's threat, but the price was giving up everything they had.

Footsteps suddenly came from behind.

A cool, aloof girl with long, dark hair appeared on the flying bridge carrying a box. Upon noticing Cheng Fei, she paused for a moment before sitting down on a sofa not too close to him, her face expressionless.

"Good evening, Ms. Shen," the boy greeted her casually.

"Good evening, Cheng Fei," Shen Xi replied hastily, opening the box and taking out the equipment inside.

"Teacher Shen, you're very cute tonight too." The boy sat down in front of her, admiring her beautiful and delicate face.

Shen Xi seemed not to hear those words, lowering her eyes as she fiddled with the equipment.

"Teacher Shen, I have a question for you."

……

185. Three years later, Cheng Fei will storm Academy City.

"Let's skip the boring or sordid questions." The girl didn't even look up, her face indifferent.

"Hey, you're being way too wary of me now, but this time I'm really serious." The boy said earnestly.

“Then tell me.” Shen Xi looked at him.

"Did you and Nana buy your over-the-knee socks from the same store? They look exactly the same."

"As expected." The girl narrowed her eyes and continued with her work with a calm and cold expression.

"Don't be angry, Teacher Shen. I was just joking to lighten the mood."

"Don't misunderstand, Cheng Fei. I'm just expressing my disappointment with your predictable fickleness," Shen Xi said coldly.

"How am I being fickle again?"

"You even noticed the texture of the over-the-knee socks. I wonder what you're usually staring at," Shen Xi sneered.

"Of course he was staring at you. Nana just glanced at you out of pathetic male instinct."

"hypocritical."

"It's not disgusting?"

"I'm too lazy to even say those two words anymore."

"Looks like the desensitization was successful?" Cheng Fei pondered, stroking his chin.

"Disgusting." The girl looked up with a look of disgust. "Are you satisfied now?"

"That feels so good." Cheng Fei let out an exaggerated sigh of relief. "Teacher Shen, you have no idea how cute your little frowning expression is."

Shen Xi gritted her teeth and kicked him under the table.

"It's also cute that you like to kick me quietly to express your little emotions." Cheng Fei nodded in approval.

"Shut up if you're spouting such disgusting nonsense."

"Okay, seriously, I wanted to tell you something." Cheng Fei said calmly, "I'm planning to go down below and take a small boat away."

Shen Xi stopped what she was doing and stared at him suspiciously. "Where are we going?"

"Maybe, anyway, once we're out of Academy City, Lin Xuanqi won't be able to control me."

"So he was afraid of her and wanted to desert." The girl said sarcastically.

"What deserter? I call this a strategic retreat," Cheng Fei said earnestly.

"Ha, cowardly men never run out of excuses."

"That's not important. What's important is what you'll do, my princess." The boy looked into the girl's eyes.

"What? What should I do?" The girl frowned slightly.

"To avoid not seeing each other for several years, would you like to come with me? I will marry you in the future, Shen Xi."

"Are you serious?" The girl frowned.

"Marry you? Of course, you haven't doubted my feelings for you, have you?"

"Stop spouting your disgusting nonsense. I'm asking if you're really leaving?" the girl glared at him.

"You can't bear to part with me? I knew it, that's why I came to ask if you wanted to come along."

"So-called awareness of protecting me is nothing more than this; I'll run away at the first opportunity," the girl said in a muffled voice.

"Hey, Teacher Shen, it's true that I want to protect you, but living under the constant threat of Lin Xuanqi's death is very stressful. I have no choice. I need to protect you, but I also need to protect my own life. Please understand me. I'll return to Academy City in three years." The boy said with a pained expression.

Shen Xi stared at the direction of the stairs behind him for a second in silence, her eyes flickering, "So besides me, who else do you want to take with you?"

"Teacher Shen, what kind of question is that? Of course, it's only you." The boy was stunned for a moment, then quickly replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

"Really?"

"It's true."

“If you take me away, it means you'll break up with Lin Xuanqi and get back together with me.” The girl’s face was unreadable.
