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

Suddenly, a loud bang came from underground, startling the two of them so much that they instinctively shrank back.

The boy, clutching his shoulder, then walked down the stairs to the ground floor, saying, "Ouch...that hurts a bit."

"Are you injured?" The aloof girl followed beside him expressionlessly, scrutinizing him, her pure, dark eyes concealing an almost imperceptible concern.

536. Cheng Fei received compensation again.

"Thank goodness, I shouldn't die." Cheng Fei grimaced and looked up, suddenly noticing two figures rapidly moving away from the area. "What are those two doing here?"

Zhou Han and Ruan Jingyi walked hand in hand quickly, as if they had seen a ghost. Their steps were stiff and they didn't look back, as if they were completely unaware of what was happening in their direction.

Shen Xi blinked at the two of them, then casually stepped forward and hugged the boy, her small hands climbing up his back, her delicate body pressing against him, and whispered, "Never mind."

"Teacher Shen?" Cheng Fei was stunned.

"What's wrong?" The girl asked in a muffled voice, her face buried in her hands, her soft and gentle voice no less captivating than when she was underground.

"Do you really want me to confront Lin Xuanqi right now?" The young man gently stroked her back.

"That's ridiculous. I've already said I didn't mean it that way." The girl seemed displeased, her tone less cold than usual, and she just shifted her body slightly.

"Isn't this just so they'll find out about our relationship?" Cheng Fei watched until the two completely disappeared from sight before feeling relieved.

Shen Xi paused for a second, then said, "I'm just fulfilling our agreement. Besides, they won't spread the word if they see this."

"While the feeling of taking the initiative to fulfill it is also quite endearing, why are you so certain?" the boy wondered.

"It's a secret." There was a hint of vengeance in his tone.

"There's a secret about this too? Okay, I won't ask anymore, hiss..." The boy shrugged habitually and gasped.

Shen Xi looked up at him, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. "Is it serious?"

"It's alright, as long as the little cutie continues to stay obediently in my arms." Cheng Fei tried to push her back.

"If it's serious, go back and deal with it quickly." The girl pulled away and grabbed his hand.

"It's not serious, really, let's continue." The boy's expression hardened, and he shook his head, standing still.

"Finish it before continuing, and hurry up." The girl frowned, her tone commanding.

"Is that so? Okay then." The boy breathed a sigh of relief, as if it were a serious matter, and took her small hand.

"An incurable aquatic mammal." The girl glared at him with a completely harmless expression.

"I've always been hopelessly in love with you."

"Shut up."

The boy and girl maintained a delicate atmosphere as they walked towards the tower, still holding hands in secluded areas, only separating when others were around.

……

Shen Xi took Cheng Fei straight back to her room.

After closing the door, the girl pulled the boy to sit on the small sofa, quickly found the first-aid kit in the room from the cabinet, and expressionlessly carried it to the coffee table in front of the boy. She then squatted down and began rummaging through the first-aid kit.

During this process, the boy's gaze moved from her serious profile, partially obscured by her thick hair, to her slender legs encased in black over-the-knee stockings beneath her skirt. He felt that the girl possessed an indescribable allure from head to toe.

Shen Xi found what she was looking for, stood up and looked down at him, her flat voice sounding both puzzled and disdainful, "Will Cheng Feiyu never be able to rein in his filthy gaze?"

"Of course I can't hold back in front of my little darling." The boy looked proud rather than ashamed.

"Take off your clothes," the girl commanded.

"Huh? Teacher Shen, this is too sudden." The boy's expression changed.

"Please put away your lewd and disgusting fantasies first, I need to treat you." The girl's brows furrowed, and she kicked him symbolically.

"Oh, is this it? You should have said so earlier." The boy shook his head in disappointment, took off his jacket and casual shirt, revealing his muscular upper body.

The girl's eyes flickered, and she lowered her gaze, avoiding his chest and focusing only on his injured shoulder.

It can be seen that the boy's shoulder is already red and swollen, obviously relying on Shi Ling's power to break through the door exceeded the limits of his body's endurance.

Shen Xi leaned down and stared at the boy's shoulder without saying a word.

"Teacher Shen, what are you looking at?" Cheng Fei looked into her pure, dark eyes.

"How are you feeling? Any signs of a fracture?" The girl looked up at him, then looked back at her injured spot, her face serious.

"Probably not, at least the activity is normal, hiss..." Cheng Fei moved his shoulder.

"Then let's apply a cold compress first." Shen Xi tore open the disposable ice pack in her hand, crushed the contents, and then wrapped the ice pack with a large towel, placed it on the boy's shoulder, and wrapped it with a bandage to secure it.

"Teacher Shen, by the way, what is this towel?" Cheng Fei looked at her focused face and felt the warmth of the ice pack gradually spread from the towel to his shoulder. It was cool but not biting, just like the girl herself.

"What's wrong with my bath towel?" The girl asked without looking up.

"No wonder it smells good," the boy said knowingly.

"Don't talk nonsense." Shen Xi set up the ice pack, draped the boy's coat over his shoulders, and then fiddled with the first-aid kit. "Do you want some painkillers?"

"no need."

"Then apply the anti-inflammatory gel after the cold compress." The girl carefully read the English on the packaging, left the necessary items on the coffee table, and put the first aid kit back in its place.

After doing all this, Shen Xi returned to the boy and stared at him, her expression inscrutable.

"Are you hesitating about whether to take the opportunity to kill me?" Cheng Fei looked at her curiously.

"Let's continue with our agreement." The girl raised her chin. "If you have no objections."

"Of course I have no objection, but how do we plan to carry it out?" Cheng Fei sat motionless on the small sofa, glancing at his shoulder, which was being treated with a cold compress.

"Sit still and don't move," the girl said softly.

Then, first one knee was raised and placed beside him, followed by the other.

Looking down at the boy for a second with the feeling of looking down at an insect, I knelt down. Just like the previous two times, I was tense at first, as if sitting on pins and needles, and my back was arched. After a while, I got used to it, relaxed my waist, and slowly moved my position so that my body gradually got closer and finally fit together perfectly.

Shen Xi wrapped her arms around the boy's back, buried her head, and said in a muffled voice, "Just do it."

Cheng Fei looked down at the gentle and sweet girl in his arms. Her long, ink-black hair completely covered her small face. She wore a black dress, black over-the-knee socks, and black uniform shoes. The black blanket, as light and soft as a feather, was spread over the boy, giving him an indescribable sense of comfort.

"Shen Xi, this is too unfair," the young man said, gently stroking the back of her head.

The girl remained motionless, then after a moment of silence said in a low voice, "You may touch my ankle this time, if you like."

"Huh?" Cheng Fei was shocked. "Are you still Shen Xi? Have you been possessed by a female ghost? First, answer me, when was our first kiss?"

"Shut up. It's just compensation for protecting me from injury, barely satisfying your disgusting, shady fetishes. Anyway, we've already done it before." The girl twisted her body.

"There's compensation for this too?" The boy asked in surprise, his gaze sweeping over her ankle. The joint, wrapped in black velvet, was rounded and delicate, spotless, with an indescribable sense of refinement.

The girl remained motionless and did not respond.

Cheng Fei was silent for a moment, then became relieved and sighed, "Shen Xi, so you really are my little darling."

537. Cheng Fei continued forward.

"Stop talking nonsense, if you like it, hurry up." Shen Xi kept her face down and didn't move.

"Understood, thank you for the treat." Cheng Fei said seriously, then grasped the girl's knee, which was covered by black over-the-knee stockings; the touch was indescribably delicate and wonderful.

The room fell silent as the boy and girl immersed themselves in their time alone, feeling each other's presence with an unspoken understanding.

"Shen Xi, this is really strange." The young man suddenly said, smelling the familiar faint fragrance emanating from the thick hair so close to his face.

"What crazy things are you going to say this time?" The girl buried her face in a comfortable position, her slender and delicate body completely relaxed and boneless.

"How can both gentleness and thoughtfulness and sharp-tongued arrogance exist in the same person? That's just too illogical." The boy seemed to be pondering a difficult problem, his palm slowly sliding down.

The girl twisted her small feet in her uniform shoes and hugged him tightly. "Cheng Fei, let me emphasize again, I don't know how much more gentle and considerate I can be to you. I've done everything I could. Please find out who has been kind to you from the beginning and has never treated you unfairly, tolerating and forgiving your repeated bad behavior and shameful betrayal. If you have any moral compass, then don't do anything to disappoint me again."

"While that's true, Ms. Shen, are you really not using manipulative tactics?" the boy thought for a moment.

"Only someone like you, Cheng Feiyu, would resort to such witty remarks all day long. I can't stand it anymore! I'm going crazy trying to reform a despicable person like you. Let go!" The girl began to twist and turn.

"Teacher Shen, I was wrong. I actually questioned your broad-mindedness with my narrow-minded thoughts!" The boy quickly hugged her tightly.

"Trash!" The girl buried her face and punched him lightly before calming down.

The young man breathed a sigh of relief.

"Also, I've always just pointed out the problems directly, and I don't see anything wrong with that. I don't know why I'm being labeled as sarcastic. As for being arrogant, that's ridiculous and laughable. It's just a delusion you've created by misinterpreting my meaning." The girl's tone was cold.

"Teacher Shen, in a general sense, you're being sarcastic," the boy exclaimed. "As for being arrogant, well, you're quite frank most of the time, which is also quite endearing."

The girl took a deep breath, her chest heaving. "Fine, think what you want."

The air was quiet for a moment.

"Shen Xi".

"what?"

"I have a small request," the boy said casually.

The girl paused for a second, then asked, "What does Cheng Feiyu want now?"

"Besides the ankle, could you move it up or down a little? It won't make much difference to you, right? But it's really important to me. I hope you'll agree if you can, but if you don't, just pretend I didn't say anything." The boy was very cautious.

"Cheng Feiyu is pushing his luck again." The girl's tone remained unchanged.

"That's right, I'll always push my luck with this kind of thing." The boy hugged her tightly and said frankly.

"Just a reminder, you haven't broken up with that guy surnamed Lin yet." The girl's voice was unreadable.

"Even though we didn't break up, at least you can see some of my sincerity, right? If I really wanted to be with her, I would just spend every day with her now." Cheng Fei buried his face in the hair near her ear.

"..." The girl remained motionless.

"Teacher Shen?"

"Ten minutes," the girl said abruptly, her voice trembling.

"What do you mean?"

"Given your behavior so far, I'll reluctantly agree to this request and allow you to touch my calf, but only for ten minutes until the cold compress is finished. Also, if it makes me feel too nauseous or uncomfortable, you must stop," the girl said slowly.

"I think my injury is quite serious, and I need to apply cold compresses more often," the boy said quickly.

"Applying cold compresses for too long will cause blood vessels to rebound and dilate, worsening the swelling. Doesn't the foolish Cheng Feiyu even have this basic common sense?" the girl said coldly.

"Okay, can we continue after the cold compress?" the boy asked quickly.

“Cheng Fei, that’s enough.” The girl said slowly and deliberately, “Or are your shady fetishes really so severe that ten minutes isn’t enough to satisfy you?”

"Okay, I understand." The boy nodded decisively. "Then did you take your shoes off?"

"Disgusting," the girl responded with a deep breath as if facing a formidable enemy.

"It's all because you kick me all the time."

"That cunning aquatic mammal is trying to shirk responsibility again. I've told you before, you know exactly where you've been eyeing me since the first time we met. You're filthy inside, so don't blame me." The girl gritted her teeth and punched him again.

"Alright, Your Highness, I'll have to oblige you."

"If you know, then shut up. You have eight minutes and twenty seconds left," the girl said coldly.

"So precise?" Cheng Fei asked in surprise.

"I've been silently counting the time ever since you started applying ice. Is there a problem?"

The boy paused for a second, then said, "Although it's cute that you're taking such good care of me, Ms. Shen, there's something seriously wrong with your little brain."

"Instead of talking such self-deceiving words, you might as well just admit that you're not as smart as me," the girl scoffed.

"Well, my little darling is really smart."

As soon as he finished speaking, the boy made his move.

With two thuds, one after the other, the small black uniform shoes fell casually to the ground.

The girl shivered slightly as if she had caught a chill, her brows furrowed, and confusion, bewilderment, and disgust mingled in her voice. "I really can't understand how someone with such disgusting tastes could exist in this world."
