“Alright, Your Highness, please go change and get ready. We won’t be going home tonight.” The young man gestured for her to proceed.

"Why don't you go home?" Shen Xi asked warily in a second.

"Because I'm planning to take you to a hotel, remember to bring your ID card." The boy said seriously.

"Cheng Fei, I just said that the premise is that you abide by all the agreements." The girl raised her voice.

"I didn't say I wouldn't follow the rules. Booking a room doesn't mean we have to do *that* kind of thing. It just saves us from having to travel back and forth. Teacher Shen, you're overthinking it. Or are you going to object to this too? As compensation for me, at least I should be in charge of the itinerary, right?" The boy shrugged.

Shen Xi stared intently at him, then turned her face away after a moment and walked toward the bedroom with extremely displeased steps.

"Ms. Shen, could you please dress a little more cutely? That's one of my requests. Thank you, you've worked hard. I'll go back to my car now and pick you up at the intersection later," the boy said to her retreating figure.

"I know, trash." The girl's words fell through gritted teeth, followed by the sound of the door slamming shut.

Seeing this, Cheng Fei put his hands in his pockets and strolled leisurely out the door and downstairs.

……

At 8 p.m., Guang'an Street is bustling with students and office workers walking at varying paces, creating a peaceful and reassuring atmosphere amidst the diverse yet orderly hustle and bustle of the city.

A cool, aloof girl with long, dark hair walked to the roadside carrying a small shoulder bag. Due to the chilling aura emanating from her, people who noticed her subconsciously kept their distance from her.

The pretty young girl with delicate features wore a navy blue corduroy pinafore dress that accentuated her slender waist. She layered a plaid vest with a gold brooch over it, and wore a retro-style shirt underneath, tied with a pretty knotted neckline.

In contrast to her slightly elaborate upper body attire, her slender legs, exposed beneath her skirt, were encased in black over-the-knee socks and wore sleek black patent leather loafers. Her calves were long and shapely, and her ankles were small and rounded. At first glance, they resembled a spotless work of art, exuding an indescribable delicacy and beauty.

She stood by the roadside, clutching the thin strap of her handbag, and after a short while, a low-slung, sleek silver Panamera stopped in front of her.

Those around her, who were secretly watching her, all wore expressions of "I knew it would happen again" and looked away.

Faced with the sports car parked in front of her, the girl took a half step back with a cold expression, her demeanor showing a strange wariness.

The car window rolled down, and the handsome young man with his hands on the steering wheel looked at her. "Teacher Shen, what's with that expression? Get in the car."

The girl then reluctantly opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.

"Don't forget your seatbelt, little one." The boy rolled up the window, gripped the steering wheel, and merged into the traffic.

"Where are we going? I'm hungry." Shen Xi put her handbag on her lap, gripped the seatbelt with the same motion as before, and stared ahead with a cold expression.

388. That's the extent of Shen Xi's abilities.

"It's kind of cute to see someone sitting there so obediently and complaining of being hungry." The boy holding the steering wheel smiled.

So the girl frowned slightly, turned her head and glared at him; normally she would have already kicked him.

"If you're hungry, I'll take you to eat first," the boy said again.

"I want to eat at that dim sum restaurant." Shen Xi said expressionlessly.

"Teacher Shen, I know you're sentimental, but since we finally have a date, can't you go with someone else?" the boy said helplessly.

"Then let's go to that Northeastern restaurant. Besides, no one else wants to go on a date with you," the girl said coldly.

"Here we go again. I'll take you to eat something else. Besides, friends can also talk about going on a date, so please don't argue with that."

"Don't think that just because I'm putting on airs, driving a beat-up car, and going to a fancy restaurant, I'll let you do whatever you want like those short-sighted girls do to me." The girl's brows furrowed even more.

"Yes, yes, yes, Miss Shen has seen it all, she's not so easily fooled. But Mr. Shen, I've never done anything like that to other girls. The only person I want to do anything to is you, so don't underestimate me." The young man said seriously as he drove.

"Here we go again. Don't spout your filthy arguments at me. I've said it before: a crime against one person is still a crime. Besides, I hope it's not just empty words." The girl sat upright in the passenger seat and sneered.

"Tch, time will prove me right. You'll have to apologize to me then, Shen Xi."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Panamera's three-section rear wing rose, the twin-turbo engine roared to life, and it transformed into a silver snake as it quickly changed lanes and drove onto the elevated highway.

The strong push-back sensation instantly pressed the unprepared, aloof girl in the passenger seat into the sports seat.

"Cheng Fei! What are you doing?" Shen Xi quickly grabbed the handle above the door frame.

"Don't be afraid, little cutie, I'm a top-notch driver." The boy's lips curled into a slightly malicious smile.

You were speeding!

There is no surveillance footage in this area.

"That's dangerous driving!"

"Driving without encountering danger is not considered dangerous."

"Cheng Fei, you're a lunatic!" Shen Xi couldn't help but curse.

……

After driving over an elevated section, the Panamera returned to normal speed and retracted its rear wing.

Shen Xi breathed a sigh of relief, her sharp gaze glaring fiercely at the young man in the driver's seat, her teeth clenched. "Cheng Fei! I never thought you would be so childish. Driving like this is irresponsible to me, and also irresponsible to yourself."

"Teacher Shen, don't worry, how could I be irresponsible towards you? It's just that you should have noticed that my reaction speed has been unusually fast lately, right?" The boy took a moment to reach out and rub the girl's head.

Shen Xi stared at his profile, her eyes flickering, and after a moment of silence, asked, "Why?"

"It's a secret." The boy gestured for silence.

"Trash." The girl turned her face away from him, observing the street scene outside the window, and said in a muffled voice, "Where are we going?"

"Since Miss Shen dislikes high-end restaurants, let's go eat at a low-end one then," the young man said casually.

"Whatever you want." Shen Xi's tone was unreadable.

"By the way, Ms. Shen, the overalls are very cute and suit your temperament perfectly."

"Thank you, but that's obvious." The girl tossed her hair.

"So frank?" Cheng Fei raised an eyebrow.

"As expected of Cheng Feiyu, who is always disgusting. You're the one who told me to be frank." Shen Xi glared at him. "Besides, there's nothing wrong with giving me normal compliments."

"I understand, it just means I'm not acting normally normally."

"It's good to know."

"By the way, Ms. Shen, have you noticed that we're wearing matching outfits again?" the boy said smugly.

His coat was the same navy blue as Shen Xi's pinafore dress, and his khaki trousers complemented the girl's light apricot retro shirt perfectly.

"I can't understand how someone can persist in such a pointless behavior." Shen Xi took a deep breath and frowned as she looked out the window.

"Of course it's because my love for you has never wavered, my little cutie."

"nausea."

"By the way, if I may ask, Ms. Shen, how much did your dress cost? Thirty thousand? Fifty thousand? Which luxury brand is it?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Xi slowly turned her head and looked at him with a complicated look of incomprehension and sympathy. She uttered five words slowly and deliberately, "One hundred and eighty-eight."

"You remember it so clearly?" the boy asked in surprise.

“I have hyperthymesia,” she continued, emphasizing each word.

"Well, I have to admit that you're definitely better than me in terms of memory." The boy nodded seriously.

"Cheng Fei, you're getting more and more absurd. You've only known Lin Xuanqi for a short time, and your understanding of clothing prices has already become like this." Shen Xi's disdainful words carried a hint of disappointment.

"Don't misunderstand, Teacher Shen. I just think you dress very elegantly. I didn't expect you to make a 188 yuan outfit look like 18,800 yuan. You're really amazing." The boy seemed to be marveling at something.

"I won't deny that, that's just how I am." Shen Xi snorted and tossed her hair.

"His narcissism is equally impressive." The young man nodded casually.

"Shut up. I already said this is a clear self-awareness," the girl said coldly.

"By the way, if I may ask, do you usually wear lip balm?" The boy glanced at her plump, pink lips, which were both stubborn and alluring.

"Why are you suddenly asking about these things?" Shen Xi asked suspiciously.

"Just think of it as me being curious about your life; it can't be considered a disgusting question, can it?"

"I'm sorry, I never use any cosmetics." The girl said expressionlessly.

"Understood." The boy nodded.

"What do you know?" Shen Xi was even more puzzled.

"As expected, our charm is unmatched by ordinary people, and I don't need makeup." The boy said seriously.

Shen Xi squinted, hugged her arms, and shivered with disgust. "Cheng Fei, I know you rack your brains every day to flirt with girls, but please, as a guy, don't talk like that. It makes me sick."

“Teacher Shen, this is sexism. Boys also have the right to pursue beauty and can use cosmetics.”

"Cheng Fei, that's enough. I suddenly feel nauseous. Stop the car."

"That's too much, cutie."

"I'm serious."

"No, let's not talk about this anymore."

……

Cheng Fei led Shen Xi to an old street filled with the smoke of cooking. The neon signs of the roadside food stalls were brightly lit, and folding tables and bright red plastic chairs were scattered in the open space. It was past eight o'clock, the peak time for customers. Students, office workers, family and friends, all kinds of diners gathered here, and the aroma of food and the hustle and bustle of the city intertwined in the air.

The Panamera slowly drove into the street. Compared to the messy electric bikes and low-end cars on the roadside, the silver coupe with its yellow and black shield-shaped logo stood out from the crowd. Its smooth body lines and deep engine roar immediately attracted a lot of attention.

At the entrance of the most popular food stall on the street, a silver sports car squeezed into the only remaining parking space on the side of the road. The surrounding noise continued, but while many people were enjoying their food and chatting, they all took the time to glance at the car.

389. Cheng Fei becomes a spoiled brat.

When the car door opened, everyone who turned their gaze to it was momentarily lost in thought.

Stepping out of the passenger seat was a stunningly beautiful young woman with waist-length black hair. Her delicate features had a cool and clear quality, like a fragile piece of glass. She wore black over-the-knee socks under her skirt, and her slender legs, clad in black loafers, were particularly eye-catching.

Although the girl did not show any obvious disgust, the way she gripped the thin strap of her small handbag tightly after getting off the bus and looked around expressionlessly gave off the feeling of a pampered rich young lady who was subconsciously wary as she came to the streets for the first time.

As for the boy who got out of the driver's seat, well, let's just ignore this damn rich kid who looks all high and mighty. Everyone who saw that guy labeled him as hateful.

Shen Xi stood by the roadside, looking up at the street sign, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. "Hubin Road? What kind of place is this?"

"Don't worry about it, just come with me." Cheng Fei walked up from behind, naturally putting his hand on the girl's small shoulder and embracing her delicate body.

Shen Xi shivered as if chilled, her body tensing, and she turned to glare at him, "Cheng Fei!"

"Teacher Shen, from now until the day after tomorrow, I can hold your hand and hug you freely. Have you forgotten?" the boy said calmly.

The girl's eyes flickered before she lowered her head, paused for a moment, and then gritted her teeth, "You piece of trash."

"Please cooperate willingly. Others might think I had a fight with my girlfriend."

"No one here is your girlfriend," Shen Xi emphasized coldly, gradually relaxing her body and moving slightly closer to the boy, appearing less indifferent.

"You are my girlfriend, Shen Xi."

"Cheng Fei, let me go."

"Teacher Shen, I was wrong. What I meant was that in my absurd delusions, you were my girlfriend."

"If you know it's absurd, then don't dream about it."

"Everyone must have dreams. My dream is to marry you one day."

"Enough, shut up. It's disgusting to say things like that so casually."

The exceptionally good-looking teenagers talked as they walked toward the food stall, weaving through the open-air tables and chairs.

Shen Xi let Cheng Fei put his arm around her and walk forward, her face indifferent as she ignored the prying eyes around her. She glanced around and said, "There are no seats left in this restaurant."

"If I want him, he has to have me." The boy said arrogantly.

"Cheng Fei, don't do anything pointless." The girl frowned at him, a sense of worry creeping over her.

"Teacher Shen, is your little brain starting to use its imagination again?" the boy said with a sidelong glance.

Cheng Fei put his arm around Shen Xi and led her to the stove near the entrance of the food stall. The middle-aged owner, wearing a headscarf, was skillfully stir-frying the food. The loud noise from the powerful stove and the intense flames scorched the blackened wok. Several other chefs were also preparing other dishes nearby.

"Stand here and wait for me." Cheng Fei said, leaving Shen Xi behind, and walked inside with his hands in his pockets.
