System, so what are you, and how can you do this?

Naturally, his question received no response.

The boy shook his head, withdrew his hand, and banished those vague and fantastical ideas from his mind.

"Forget it, I'll just go to sleep."

Meanwhile, on the 36th floor across the street.

A cool, aloof girl with long, dark hair stood in the corridor and knocked on the door in front of her, her small face expressionless.

A moment later, the door opened halfway, and the familiar, sweet-looking girl tilted her head and looked at her. "Good evening, Shen Xi?"

The aloof girl pushed open the door without any politeness, looked around, and her gaze locked onto the phone on the bedside table. She picked it up but couldn't unlock the screen. She held it up to Nagasaki Asuna and said in a cold, unyielding voice, "You vixen, open it."

"Hey, what's all this time?" The sweet girl hid her hands behind her back, unmoved.

"I want to see your chat history." Shen Xi's gaze was sharp.

Nagasaki Asuna immediately realized who she was referring to, her gaze darting left and right as she hesitated, "This, um, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"This is an order." Shen Xi emphasized, narrowing her eyes.

"Should I ask Cheng Fei first?" The sweet girl's eyes darted around.

"Ask away." The aloof girl handed her the phone, her eyes lowered.

“Okay.” Nagasaki Asuna obediently replied, took the phone, and quickly hid it behind her back, staring at the other person with a wary look.

"You vixen, what do you mean?" The aloof girl became displeased.

"Shen Xi is too cunning; she wanted to snatch it after I unlocked it." The sweet girl stared at her face and said with certainty.

"Your senses have indeed become stronger?" Shen Xi was taken aback.

"This level of skill doesn't require becoming stronger?" Nagasaki Asuna said nonchalantly.

Shen Xi took a deep breath, her cold voice turning impatient, "Tell me everything you know about what that jerk has done to you recently."

"No." The sweet girl shook her head without hesitation, her coffee-colored sideburns swaying with her movements.

"You vixen, find out who's been so merciful as to let you live here." The aloof girl's eyes narrowed.

“But Cheng Fei told me not to say anything.” Nagasaki Asuna continued to shake her head.

“Even if you don’t tell me, I’ll still get it out of him. It’ll be no different from you telling me now.” Shen Xi stared intently at her.

"There is a difference."

What's the difference?

"It would make me seem disobedient and unruly," the sweet girl said earnestly.

Shen Xi frowned, paused for a second, pinched her brow and sighed, a feeling of disgust and helplessness in her voice. "Unlock your phone and show me. I'll allow you to go see that jerk now. You can stay and not come back tomorrow if you want."

"Huh, really?" The sweet girl's bright eyes widened suddenly, like a cat seeing a large amount of cat food being poured into a bowl.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll go ask him myself." Shen Xi turned her face away, her expression one of pity for his misfortune.

"Teacher Shen, please look~" The sweet girl instantly handed her the unlocked phone with both hands.

The aloof young woman took the phone, opened WeChat, frowned, and quickly browsed the pinned chat labeled "Master".

Then, his pure, dark eyes suddenly narrowed, losing focus and becoming empty.

"What do you mean by not using props?" She slowly raised her head, staring at Nagasaki Asuna, her tone unwavering.

"It means exactly what it says?" The sweet girl met her gaze, blinked casually, still innocent and naive.

Shen Xi's eyelids twitched.

A bone-chilling cold emanated from her, enveloping the entire room.

"Goodbye, Shen Xi!" Nagasaki Asuna shivered, snatched back her phone, grabbed the light pink cardigan she had worn during the day from the coat rack, and rushed out of the room as if fleeing for her life, as agile as a cat on the run.

The aloof girl stood motionless, inhaling, exhaling, inhaling again, exhaling again, her flat chest heaving violently.

So, ten minutes later...

Meow~?

Why did you come here?

"Meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow?"

"I don't understand, speak like a human."

"You missed your master, so you came?"

Where is Shen Xi?

"Shen Xi...should still be at home, right?"

"She allowed you to come?"

"It's accurate..."

"?"

"Cheng Fei, it's a bit cold outside."

"Never mind, come in first, or you'll catch a cold again."

"Once the cold is gone, I can eat glutinous rice balls again."

"Good my foot."

"Cheng Fei's bed is so warm, hehe~"

"So what exactly happened? Explain it clearly."

"Doesn't Cheng Fei want to pamper Nana right now?"

"Put your clothes on, don't move, explain first."

"Okay... Well, Cheng Fei, I'm sorry, Nana couldn't resist the temptation and let Cheng Fei down."

"What temptation?"

"The Temptation of Cheng Fei".

"?"

“Shen Xi just said that if I show her the chat history, she will allow me to come see Cheng Fei tonight.”

"So she saw our chat history?"

"Hmm~"

"..."

Is Cheng Fei angry?

"I'm more concerned about whether she's angry?"

"I'm so angry."

"what are you doing?"

"Kneeling on the bed, kowtowing and begging for forgiveness?"

"?"

"Cheng Fei, I'm sorry. It's all because this cat is so unruly. It surrendered as soon as it was tempted. Please punish it as you see fit, Cheng Fei. The cat will not resist and will obediently admit its mistake."

"Then what are you doing?"

"Hey~ Ready for a lesson?"

……

On Sunday, Shen Xi did not ask anyone to go online, and Cheng Fei did not receive any contact from her. The entire Academy City was shrouded in an extremely eerie and deathly silence, as if the end of the world had arrived (at least that's how he felt).

Asuna Nagasaki said she was too scared to go home and stayed with the boy, and the two spent the second night together.

……

on Monday.

Despite pondering all sorts of things (including whether God truly exists), Cheng Fei still went to school.

The Lamborghini slowly drove up the gentle slope of Yinghua.

"Cheng Fei said before that this car would be too conspicuous at school, but he still drove it?" Nagasaki Asuna sat in the passenger seat, her bright eyes reflecting the watchful gazes outside the window.

"I was originally planning to drive the GLS, but since you're here, I'll drive this one instead." The boy on the steering wheel looked straight ahead.

"Why is that?" the sweet girl tilted her head.

"Because you deserve it." The boy said nonchalantly.

"Huh?" Nagasaki Asuna tilted her head, then broke into a bright smile. "Okay~"

The white supercar drove into the school gate parking lot. The boy pulled the girl in front of him and savored her sweet scent for a while before getting out of the car.

Asuna Nagasaki habitually tidied her messy hair and collar, when she suddenly noticed something, glanced at the rearview mirror, and her expression changed. "Cheng Fei."

"what?"

"later."

The boy looked back following her finger and saw a haughty girl with cascading black hair standing quietly not far away, carrying a shoulder bag in both hands, as if waiting for him to get off the bus. Her graceful figure, with her legs encased in thin black pantyhose in her Sakura school uniform, was eye-catching.

"What should I do? Would it be bad if Lin saw what I said?" Nagasaki Asuna looked at the boy and pursed her lips.

"You're scared?"

"No, I'm just worried about affecting Cheng Fei." The sweet girl shook her head obediently.

"If she sees it, she sees it. Just act like usual and let her think what she wants."

As soon as he finished speaking, the boy lifted the car door first.

Nagasaki Asuna nodded and got off the train first.

When the Lamborghini's scissor doors opened and Lin Xuanqi saw the familiar, sweet-looking girl emerge from the passenger seat, her pupils contracted, and she tightened her grip on her shoulder bag slightly.

Nagasaki Asuna met her gaze, nodded briefly, and said nothing more.

When Cheng Fei got out of the car, the sweet girl followed him at a distance that was neither too close nor too far, just as she would in front of strangers.

The two walked toward the school gate on their own, without stopping.

Lin Xuanqi frowned slightly, and only after the two had walked past for a few seconds did she turn around and catch up, trailing far behind.

“Cheng Fei, she’s been following us.” Nagasaki Asuna didn’t turn around, but glanced to the side out of the corner of her eye.

"Idiot, you have hair around your mouth." The boy said, and before the sweet girl could react, he casually smoothed the hair that had gotten messed up in the car.

Nagasaki Asuna paused for a moment, then tilted her head and smiled at him.

Lin Xuanqi watched this scene from afar, her eyes trembled, her heart skipped a beat, and she looked away.

……

Lunch break.

For obvious reasons, the small group in Class 6 disbanded again, leaving only the boy still busy with his own things at his seat.

The haughty girl who had been listlessly slumped over in front of him all morning turned her chair around and occupied a small part of his desk again, lying down with her eyes, which held complex emotions, staring straight at him, something brewing within them.

The boy didn't even look up, seemingly completely unaware of her presence.

"Cheng Fei," Lin Xuanqi called out softly, as if testing the waters.

The boy ignored him.

"You don't actually like Shen Xi either, do you?" the girl asked him, looking at him.
