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

"Then I'll be going now, Miss Lin."

The young female doctor finished speaking softly and left the bedroom.

Lin Xuanqi lay on the bed and exchanged a glance with the boy sitting on the chair on the edge of the bed.

The maid had cleaned up the mess on the floor, and the room was now quiet.

"Then I'll be going too." Cheng Fei immediately prepared to get up.

"Husband, don't go!" Lin Xuanqi quickly leaned out and grabbed him, her hand covered with an IV patch, her strength pitifully weak.

"Tsk, what else do you want?" The boy looked annoyed, but didn't shake her off for the time being.

"My husband came all this way to visit me, can't you at least have a meal before you leave?" The young woman asked, her eyes lowered and her voice pleading. "Cheng Fei, please."

"First of all, I'm here to complete a mission, not to visit you," the boy said irritably.

"Yes, yes, it was all Shen Xi's task. My husband definitely didn't mean to worry about me." Lin Xuanqi nodded quickly.

The boy paused for a second, then shook his head. "Never mind, I'll leave after I finish eating."

"I'll have someone prepare it right away." The girl smiled and picked up her phone to make a call.

"Prepare well... make it lavish... no rush..."

The boy looked at her expressionlessly.

Lin Xuanqi put down her phone and glanced at him. Her eyes flickered, and she tilted her head towards the boy with a charmingly innocent expression, presenting her fair cheek to him. She tapped her fingertips twice and revealed a smug smile. "Why is my husband staring at me? Do you think I'm cute and want to pick me up and kiss me? No problem, husband can kiss me however he wants."

"Nonsense, tell someone to hurry up and make it so I can eat and go back." The boy looked away, too lazy to look at her.

"But the doctor told us to pay attention to nutrition, we can't just eat instant noodles again." The girl knelt down and looked at him, her face full of honesty.

"Come on, it's just a minor cold, why are you talking about nutrition? Only private doctors would say something like that." The boy rolled his eyes.

“Yes, I think so too.” Lin Xuanqi nodded in agreement without hesitation, then paused, “But they’ve already sent someone to do it, honey, just wait a little while we chat and play around, it’ll be done soon.”

As the girl spoke, she closed one eye and made a serious "just a little bit" gesture. Her charming little face had a mischievous, devilish look that made it impossible for anyone to dislike her.

The boy pursed his lips, too lazy to pay her any attention.

Lin Xuanqi stared at his face for a moment, then, still kneeling, pulled the blanket up and wrapped it around herself, leaving only her head exposed, making herself look like a dumpling placed on the edge of the bed. She then picked up the glass from the bedside table, bit the straw, and drank water. "Husband, I want to ask you a question."

"What nonsense are you spouting now?" The boy glanced at her.

"You really didn't steal my luck just now?" The girl asked, holding the glass in both hands.

"Nonsense! I've told you no one here is stealing your luck. If you don't believe me, so be it. Think what you want." The boy said impatiently.

"It's not that they don't trust their husbands, they're just asking because they're unsure." The girl looked innocent, then thought for a moment and asked doubtfully, "Then tell me, where exactly did they roll the dice? I can't even guess."

"Go ask Shen Xi yourself, I don't know either." The boy said without any guilt.

"Okay." Lin Xuanqi nodded, put down the glass, and leaned closer to him, supporting herself on the edge of the bed. "Honey, I have another question."

"Do you think I'm some kind of big language model, someone who answers every question?" The boy looked out the window.

"I was just asking, it's okay if you don't want to answer, honey." The girl peeked into his field of vision, "Honey, what did Shen Xi mean when she said that Asuna and Xiaoshuang would help you realize your fantasies?"

“You misheard, she didn’t say that.” The boy looked away.

"Did I hear that right?" The girl peeked into his field of vision again, staring at his face, and muttered to herself in a serious tone, "What is it that you need Asuna and Kosui to help you with? They usually get along quite well, and they're both pretty and know how to dress up. Would it be nice to have them do 'that' together?"

"You're asking me? I don't know. Don't come to me with your own filthy thoughts." The boy said with obvious disdain.

"Mmm, I am filthy. All I think about all day is my husband doing those things to me." The girl nodded, her voice softening. "I want to be...abused by my husband."

"Lin Xuanqi, I'm warning you, don't try that trick on me." The boy pointed at her, then quickly withdrew his finger, as if on guard against something.

"Honey, I have a fever right now, I'm burning up. You can touch me if you don't believe me?" the girl said slowly, while one leg tentatively stretched forward. Under her light-colored silk pajamas, something small and soft, strangely similar to Shen Xi, touched the back of the boy's hand.

Her neatly trimmed nails were a pale pink, and her toes were as round as pearls, just like a young girl's delicate face, perfectly natural and without a single flaw.

Just as she said, it exudes a warm, stove-like heat, making one want to hold it in their hands and feel it carefully in the cool autumn air.

"Honey, I'm even hotter inside now, don't you want to try this... a shopping spree?" The girl's eyes narrowed slightly, her rosy eyes exuding a hint of allure, and her face was tinged with a sickly redness. "Honey, I won't resist whatever you do now. Even if you leave me half-dead here after you're done, it doesn't matter, how about it?"

As her seductive words faded, silence fell over the room.

"Put your foot back, I still have dinner to eat later." The boy said coldly and without any politeness.

Lin Xuanqi cautiously met his gaze for a moment.

"Oh."

The girl responded with a sense of resentment and helplessness, obediently pulling her leg back.

"husband."

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'm really leaving."

"Could you peel a lollipop for me? It's on that shelf over there."

"Tsk, what a childish brat."

"That's just what people like."

After a while, the maid brought dinner into the suite's living room, and the two moved there to eat.

Perhaps because she had finished the IV drip, Lin Xuanqi was in slightly better condition and was not as weak and listless.

During their casual conversation, the two finished eating.

Despite Lin Xuanqi's strong desire to stop him, Cheng Fei took his leave and drove his GLS back to Guang'an Street from Nanwan.

The next day.

"Honey, the doctor said I need another IV drip, so I won't go to school today. I'll come and keep you company when I'm better."

In the morning, the boy received this message on WeChat.

"The injection really hurts, honey, can you comfort me?"

"Class is in session, don't make noise."

"My husband even replied to my messages during class, so it seems he cares about me, hehe."

"One more word and I'll block you."

"Wrong"

During lunch break, Zhou Han and Ruan Jingyi came to the boy again to ask him questions, and everything proceeded as usual.

After school, Shen Xi didn't announce any club activities, and Cheng Fei didn't go to the club activity room either, leaving the school to do his own work.

In this atmosphere, it was Friday morning.

The seat in front of the boy remained empty until the school bell rang.

He glanced at it, ignored it, and focused on his own work, not even looking up until the end of get out of class.

Amidst the noisy students in the corridor, a figure with cascading black hair walked by with light steps, her graceful curves accentuated by thin black pantyhose beneath her school uniform skirt.

The meticulously crafted high-end uniform shoes stopped in the corner of the classroom by the window. When the boy looked up, Lin Xuanqi, with her hands clasped behind her back, leaned forward towards him, her charming face beaming with a smile, "Honey, did you miss me?"

The boy seemed not to see anything, and continued with his own business.

"Looks like you're too shy to say it, hehe." The girl didn't care. She sat down, turned around, and looked at him with her hands supporting her chin. She had a half-smile on her face, and her toes tapped the ground rhythmically under the table, giving off a feeling of being fully recharged.

Seeing this from afar, Zhou Han grabbed her hair and sighed, "It's over, it's over, Ruan Jingyi and Lin Xuanqi are here again."

The quiet girl glanced at it but didn't offer any opinion.

When the bell rang for the end of the last get out of class in the morning, hungry students once again rushed to the cafeteria to grab food.

Cheng Fei continued to act with his small group as usual.

"Hey, are you ready, kid? Tonight is an incredibly important night! Uh..." Chen Hao habitually put his arm around the boy's shoulder and spoke in an excited tone. Halfway through his sentence, he saw the other side of the boy, and his throat seemed to be choked as his expression changed.

"An incredibly important night?" Although Lin Xuanqi's smile was harmless, her red-rimmed eyes still held an undeniable air of arrogance that instilled fear in others. "You guys chat as you please, don't mind me."

Chen Hao swallowed hard, looked away, and leaned close to Cheng Fei's ear, lowering his voice as if he were being cautious in front of a teacher, "The information about the Great Teleportation Gate BOSS will be released tonight. Is your Corridor Research Department ready?"

Lin Xuanqi followed the boy with her hands behind her back, listening in as if nothing was wrong.

For this reason, Zhou Han and Ruan Jingyi could only follow behind and watch from afar, like herbivores driven out of their water source by a fierce predator.

"Is this important?" the boy asked nonchalantly.

It seems the foundation has figured out a way to remove that giant shield. Last night, the game's official announcement stated that information about the BOSS would be released in 24 hours, meaning players can start their strategy tonight.

"What a joke! You can only kill the Great Portal Boss once! This is your only chance to stand at the top of the player rankings!" Chen Hao grabbed at the air, his expression turning fanatical. "Don't you want that feeling of becoming the number one player?"

"First of all, let me remind you that even if any guild succeeds in the end, it will be the result of teamwork. There is no such thing as a number one player." The boy shook his head.

"It's simple! Just act as the main combat force when fighting the BOSS, and then deliver the fatal blow at the end, right? Then you will naturally become the focus of attention of all players!" Chen Hao patted his chest, as if he were the person he was describing.

On the other side, Du Xinhua glanced sideways and said, "I advise you to calm down. Nie Zhe is out dating again. The two of us can't compete with those big guilds."

The vice class monitor, who had recently been in a cold war with the black-haired class monitor and had come to hang out with the clique, is nowhere to be seen today. It seems that the two have reconciled thanks to Miriam's interference during the adaptation training.

"That traitor is no big deal, but tonight we must break through the encirclement and take down the BOSS!" Chen Hao said with resentment, waving his hand.

Lin Xuanqi blinked and looked up at Cheng Fei, "Honey, are you two going to play in the corridor together tonight?"

"Whether you play or not is none of your business." The boy remained expressionless.

"Can I come with you? I can call my people to help, and I'll give my husband all the good stuff." The haughty young woman was eager to try.

“Then go find Shen Xi. She’s the president, I’m not.” The boy remained unmoved.

"Okay, I'll ask her." He nodded and picked up his phone, as if he really intended to send a message.

The boy glanced at it and decided not to comment.

Lin Xuanqi seemed determined to stick close to the boy this time, even going to the same food stall as him when getting food.

"Is this the legendary braised chicken rice? It smells so good." Lin Xuanqi lowered her head and sniffed the steaming, rich broth.

The boy ignored her. As soon as he turned around, he found a familiar figure blocking his way. His expression changed, and he instinctively hid the plate to the side to protect it.

Ye Shuang was taken aback by his reaction. "You scumbag, what are you hiding from?"

"I'm afraid you'll take it and throw it away again." The worry on the boy's face seemed genuine.

"I already told you I can't." The obedient girl stomped her foot, looking a little aggrieved.

"Xiao Shuang, do you want to eat with us?" Lin Xuanqi asked casually as she watched her from the side.

"Miss, Shen Xi sent me to find you." Ye Shuang's eyes darted around as she cautiously pointed behind her.

Cheng Fei looked in the direction she was pointing and found that the aloof girl with long black hair was already sitting in a certain place, looking at him with an indifferent expression. She narrowed her eyes when she met his gaze.

Beside him, Nagasaki Asuna waved to him sweetly and smiled.

"Master Ye, are you planning to switch jobs soon and stop being Lin Xuanqi's maid?" The young man turned around and raised an eyebrow.

"Don't talk nonsense." The obedient girl stomped her foot and then said to the other side, "Miss, Shen Xi said she needs to talk to you. Let's go over there quickly."

"Okay." The haughty girl nodded slightly.

Soon enough, the five of them occupied a table in the corner of the cafeteria.

"Teacher Shen, what good food are you eating? Let me try some." Cheng Fei glanced at the fried chicken strips on Shen Xi's plate and reached out with his chopsticks.

As a result, the aloof girl rudely intercepted his chopsticks and glared at him.

“Cheng Fei can eat mine, and mine is fine too.” Nagasaki Asuna pushed her plate forward; she and Shen Xi probably got their food from the same stall.

Under the extremely displeased gaze from the side, the boy picked up a piece, put it in his mouth, and nodded, "Delicious."

Shen Xi took a deep breath, temporarily averted her gaze, and looked at Lin Xuanqi opposite her, coldly and without a trace of emotion, "Lin, if you want to act with us, fine."

"Teacher Shen, what nonsense are you talking about?" Cheng Fei interrupted her, as if he had heard a fairy tale. "She is neither a member of the club nor a member of the guild. I strongly disagree with her joining."

"Shut up, stop pretending. Since she volunteered to be cannon fodder, we should make use of her to maximize our chances of killing the BOSS." Shen Xi kicked him without any politeness.

975. Temporary Expansion of the Corridor Research Department

"Teacher Shen, don't you think you've really become despicable?" Cheng Fei looked at her, shocked. "You're simply unscrupulous and profit-driven."

"Don't use those adjectives that are only for you on me." Shen Xi glared at him fiercely.
