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

"Stop talking nonsense and get out."

"Husband, what are you doing? Let go of me, husband, Cheng Fei!"

"you can go now."

"What time is it? I need to have tutoring, let go of me!"

"I didn't see you being so studious just now."

"Cheng Fei, I was wrong, I was really wrong!"

"It's too late to say anything now, let's stop here for today."

During the heated conversation, the arrogant girl, who was struggling desperately, was forcibly carried out of the room by the boy and placed at the door.

"You asked for this, don't blame me." The boy pointed at her one last time.

Then, the door slammed shut.

Lin Xuanqi, her hair disheveled, stared wide-eyed at the tightly closed door, her face filled with disbelief.

The haughty girl clenched her fists, lowered her head, her thick bangs obscuring her face, and her body trembled slightly.

Then, unable to contain herself any longer, she yelled at the door, "When I stick out my tongue, I'm sucking so hard, it's obviously very comfortable, who can't see that? What are you pretending for?!"

"Are you that afraid of Shen Xi?! You useless thing! You're making me so angry!" She kicked the door hard in frustration.

The next second, the door suddenly opened.

"What did you just shout?" the boy asked, staring at her expressionlessly.

"Nothing, what's all this shouting about?" The haughty girl's eyes darted around, she tilted her head with her hands behind her back, and smiled charmingly, "Honey~ are you going to let them in?"

"Dream on." The boy coldly uttered two words and threw her shoulder bag out.

Then, the door slammed shut again.

Lin Xuanqi held the bag and blinked blankly.

……

At noon, Cheng Fei ordered takeout and ate alone.

Just as the time was about right, a WeChat notification sounded; it was a message from Ye Shuang.

"Is Miss still there?"

"They've already gone back."

"So fast?"

"Master Ye, it's already noon."

"Did you bully the young lady?"

"No"

The boy did not hesitate.

"You're not allowed to lie to me..."

"Bullying is sometimes a subjective matter; perhaps Master Ye should ask her about it."

"..."

He could almost picture the stubborn and resentful look on the obedient girl's face as she stared at him without saying a word.

"Although there was a minor accident, it's really nothing serious. I've been very polite to her, so don't worry, Master Ye."

"What a jerk! I knew it..."

"/pat head"

"I'm going to eat now, that's all..."

"Don't rush off, remember to come back tonight to receive your punishment."

The message was sent, but there was no response for several seconds, as if the other end had really put down the phone.

"knew……"

Then came a feeling of extreme reluctance.

"I'd like to see the light blue sailor uniform, and the hair tie with the white pom-pom design. Also, remember to bring a few extra pairs of over-the-knee socks."

"abnormal……"

This time, you could even hear a strained voice.

The boy put down his phone, sighed with a sense of relief, and quickly finished his food.

A few minutes later, the phone rang.

He picked up the phone to see the caller ID, then answered, "Good afternoon, Professor Shen. Are you planning to have lunch with me? Unfortunately, I'm almost finished eating, although it's not impossible for me to keep you company."

"Where are you?" a cold voice rang out from the other end, as if the speaker hadn't heard him.

"At home?"

"Where is the person surnamed Lin?"

"They left without hesitation once the test was completed."

"Didn't do anything?"

"No."

"Call me by my name."

"Wife."

I heard deep breathing coming from the other end.

"Teacher Shen, no matter what, I still decided to get rid of her decisively. Let's not pursue it too much and give each other some space. You're the best. I love you."

"You're just spouting nonsense!" came an annoyed voice from the other end. After a pause, he added, "Never mind, we'll talk about this later. Let's go online first."

"Your internet addiction has flared up again? I just finished eating and did a little work..."

"You have ten minutes."

The phone call ended as soon as he finished speaking.

The boy looked at the screen, shook his head, and sighed.

……

When Cheng Fei arrived at the rift dimension, there was no one under the World Tree; the group of elves that had come had already left.

Is it just a coincidence or is it just extraordinary luck that I encountered this unexpected situation on my first visit?

The boy pondered this question, then entered the research station. After asking Isena, he found Shen Xi and Nagasaki Asuna.

The two were in a laboratory where a rainbow crystal, pried from the core of the Great Corridor Portal, was placed in the center of some kind of device, with something resembling a mechanical arm deftly surrounding it.

On the interface in front of Shen Xi, a beam of light shone into her eyes. The girl was intently manipulating something out of thin air, while Nagasaki Asuna watched from the sidelines, her hands supporting her chin.

"Teacher Shen, what should we do?" Cheng Fei stepped forward.

"What? What should we do?" The aloof girl stared intently.

"When Lin Xuanqi arrived, she happened to run into the elf, and Xiao An even talked to her. She must have realized something was wrong." The boy shrugged.

Although Lin Xuanqi was unexpectedly kicked out before she could ask anything, she's not stupid; she'll definitely think about it when she gets back.

"So what?" Shen Xi said coldly, without any change in expression.

"What if she figurees out the secret here?" The boy and Nagasaki Asuna exchanged a glance.

"That's Cheng Feiyu's problem." The aloof girl narrowed her eyes.

"Teacher Shen, do you think it's reasonable for you to be so cute?" the boy asked in surprise.

"Hey, you two are just as decisive when it comes to shirking responsibility," Nagasaki Asuna remarked, looking around.

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Xi paused for a moment and narrowed her eyes.

Cheng Fei looked at Nagasaki Asuna.

The sweet girl silently covered her mouth.

Shen Xi remained silent for the time being, continuing to busy herself with her own affairs, controlling the robotic arm to emit beams of light from different angles to illuminate the rainbow crystal.

"Oh, right, did Leia just say something?" Nagasaki Asuna thought for a moment and then said, "The humans and elves in the Fallen Lands already know about the World Tree being corrupted. The Empire and the Allied Forces plan to hold peace talks in the elven territory in the World Tree canopy, and they will invite us to participate."

"Is that so? I understand." Cheng Fei clicked his tongue and nodded seriously. "The moment for Her Majesty the Empress to once again rule over the fallen land has finally arrived. However, Her Majesty is busy with many affairs and her energy is limited. I, as the governor, will take over the management of this small rural place."

“Shut up. We’ll go together then. It would be best if the war could end at the Fallen Land. After that, we should guide them to save their own world.” Shen Xi interrupted him, her tone casual yet authoritative.

"Yes, Your Majesty is wise." The young man bowed respectfully.

The aloof girl's face was icy cold; she didn't even look at him.

"Speaking of which, Shen Xi has been working on this for half a day now, without even having lunch, and she still hasn't finished?" Nagasaki Asuna looked at what Shen Xi was doing, not without worry.

"Teacher Shen, you're not eating properly again? You're always messing with yourself, no wonder you're not gaining any weight." The boy said righteously.

"What did you say?!" The aloof girl's pupils contracted, and she turned her head sharply to look at him. Still controlling the mechanical arm, she moved her small hand slightly, and the mechanical arm, which was originally pointing at the rainbow crystal, turned around completely, with its thin tip, almost invisible to the naked eye, pointing directly at the boy, releasing a faint killing intent.

"Teacher Shen, calm down. Don't point professional instruments at people." The boy raised his hands in surrender. "I misspoke. Her Highness had a natural birth, and her legs are slender and perfect, which means she has grown in all the right places. The fact that she doesn't grow in some places just makes her feel cumbersome."

"You rebellious trash, if I could bring this machine to Earth, I would definitely find and burn all those rebellious nerves in your brain." The cold girl's teeth seemed genuine as she gritted her teeth, controlling the mechanical arm to turn back and continue shooting extremely fine beams of light at the rainbow crystal.

The boy swallowed hard.

Fortunately, there are the mutated order entities; these things will never be able to move to Earth, he thought to himself.

"She's so slim and had a natural birth, how erotic." Nagasaki Asuna muttered, resting her chin on her hand and looking at Shen Xi.

"You vixen, if you want to die, say one more word." A beam of light shot from the mechanical arm and swept past the sweet girl's eyes, startling her so much that she opened them wide.

"Teacher Shen, let's just have a laugh and move on, don't do this." The boy quickly stopped them.

The three spent some time at the research station in this casual conversation.

"I need one of the collections from the corridor. Come with me to get it." The aloof girl released control of the mechanical arm and breathed a sigh of relief before suddenly giving the order.

"Okay?" The boy, who had been watching with his hands in his pockets, nodded immediately, then looked to the side and said, "Nana, let's go."

“Okay~” Nagasaki Asuna quickly got up.

Although they didn't know what problem Shen Xi had encountered, the three of them followed her orders and returned to the corridor to hunt down a BOSS to exchange for the collectibles she needed.

Before setting off, Cheng Fei received a limited-time reward for failing to defeat the target.

A perfectly intact crystal staff, classified as a sixth-tier item according to the game's rules.

As the boy held the staff in his hand to examine it, the aloof girl beside him stared at him out of the corner of her eye, her eyes unblinking and her small face expressionless.

When the boy turned his head away, she subtly shifted her gaze, as if admiring the scenery.

"Little cutie, do you want it?" The boy waved the item in front of her.

"Hey, this is the reward for defeating the BOSS? What functions does it have?" Nagasaki Asuna asked curiously, her hands behind her back.

"The function is very simple, it's teleportation." The boy opened the instructions.

"Hyperdimensional Leap Scepter: Consumes energy to teleport yourself to any location within your field of vision."

Cheng Fei raised his staff and looked toward the highest point of the clock tower near the large teleportation portal on the first floor.

With a familiar bang, the boy's figure vanished from the spot, reappearing at the top of the clock tower, his method of reappearance exactly the same as that of the failed attempt and the black umbrella.

"Cheng Fei?!" Nagasaki Asuna covered her mouth and exclaimed softly.

Shen Xi also widened her eyes slightly, her pure blue eyes revealing a look of surprise like a little girl seeing a doll.

The next second, the boy returned to the two of them, looking at the staff and rubbing his chin. "It's not that powerful, but it's pretty powerful too. Nana, do you want to try it out?"

With that, he handed the item to Nagasaki Asuna.

During this process, Shen Xi's gaze followed the movement of the staff closely, and her eyelids twitched.

"Let me see how to use it." Nagasaki Asuna also tried to lift the staff, then disappeared from the spot in the next second, flashed to the other side of the road, and returned to the two of them.

This scene drew curious glances from passing players.

"You vixen, give it back to me." The aloof girl frowned, extending her small hand, her tone leaving no room for argument.
