It's obvious that they're in a hurry to go to someone's place.

Knowing her personality, she'll probably keep bothering me for a long time tonight, since we've finally gone public with our relationship.

It's great to be in a relationship; being in a relationship means you can do those things legitimately.

The obedient girl stared down at the absolute territory created by her white over-the-knee socks, her eyes darting around as she recalled the comic she had read the night before.

It's roughly about a girl who becomes a popular idol, reunites with her childhood friend, and the various things that happen afterward.

Being an idol comes with many advantages in those situations; I wonder how Nagasaki Asuna will use it…

The girl's thoughts raced, her dark eyes blinked, and a blush crept up from behind her ears.

No, no! What nonsense is this?

What Nagasaki Asuna does is none of her business!

The girl snapped back to reality, frantically shaking her head to banish those unspeakable images from her mind, her twin ponytails swaying along with it.

She jumped up and fled the classroom with stiff steps.

On the other side, Nagasaki Asuna strolled to the entrance of Class 6 with her hands behind her back, stood at the back door, and acted as if she was just standing there casually.

She blinked and looked towards the corner of the classroom by the window, only to find that the familiar spot was empty.

"Huh?" The girl tilted her head and let out a soft sound of doubt.

In front of that spot, a haughty girl with cascading black hair silently got up and walked out of the classroom, meeting her gaze.

"Asuna?" Lin Xuanqi's face showed a hint of curiosity. "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to see Cheng Fei?" Nagasaki Asuna looked at her.

"Cheng Fei? Didn't he take the day off this morning? Didn't you know?" Lin Xuanqi asked suspiciously.

She had expected the boy to appear in the afternoon, but she waited all day at her seat and he never showed up.

"You took leave? I didn't know." Nagasaki Asuna looked blank.

"You actually didn't know?" Lin Xuanqi couldn't help but mutter.

According to the established rules, the sweet girl in front of her was already the boy's legitimate girlfriend. In any case, it was better than Shen Xi taking this position, that's what she thought.

"I'll ask." Nagasaki Asuna took out her phone and quickly typed a message on WeChat.

Lin Xuanqi stood to the side without moving, intending to wait for the result.

A moment later, the sweet girl put down her phone and breathed a small sigh of relief, placing her hand on her chest.

"How is it?" Lin Xuanqi observed discreetly.

"Cheng Fei told me to go home and wait for him, that's all I know?" The sweet girl blinked her clear, bright eyes.

"Okay." Lin Xuanqi turned her face away, her eyes darting around.

She knew all too well what the sweet girl, universally acknowledged as the most beautiful girl in Yinghua School, would do after going home.

"I'm leaving now. Where's Lin-kun?" Nagasaki Asuna pursed her lips, glanced at the stairs, and her eyes showed a hint of impatience.

"I'm leaving too, shall we go out together?" Lin Xuanqi came back to her senses and gave her a forced smile.

"Okay?" The sweet girl nodded.

Suddenly, the situation changed to the two leaving the campus side by side.

After walking in silence for a moment, Lin Xuanqi thought for a moment, "So Shen Xi was behind this today too, right? Cheng Fei didn't come."

“Probably? After all, he called me yesterday and said some strange things.” Nagasaki Asuna said, sounding troubled.

"Strange words?"

"Well, anyway, they just deliberately told me that I was going out with Cheng Fei, so I wouldn't overthink it or something."

"Huh?" Lin Xuanqi frowned slightly, as if she had heard something unbelievable. "Does this lunatic just like being with other people's boyfriends?"

The sweet-looking girl glanced at her sideways.

"I was just talking about Shen Xi," Lin Xuanqi said seriously.

"Maybe Shen Xi is just like that? She's Cheng Fei's favorite, but they just can't be together," the sweet girl sighed.

"If you ask me, I'd say she deserves it for her bad temper." Lin Xuanqi rolled her eyes, making no attempt to hide her sarcasm.

During their casual conversation, the two arrived at the school gate, where a convoy of black luxury cars was waiting as usual.

"Shall I have someone take you?" Lin Xuanqi asked the sweet-looking girl.

"I can just take a taxi myself?" Nagasaki Asuna shook her head.

“It’s not comfortable to wait for a taxi, come on, don’t be shy.” Lin Xuanqi gestured to the man in black next to her.

The sweet-looking girl glanced at the open car door, then looked at her again, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded. "Alright then, thank you, Lin?"

1036. Of course I'd mind.

It was evening.

The master bedroom door of the hotel suite was pushed open forcefully, and a cool, aloof girl with long, dark hair emerged from inside.

"It's disgusting, really disgusting." Shen Xi frowned, squinted, and covered her mouth. Her small face showed an intense disgust that she couldn't hide. As if she wanted to escape from something, her slender legs moved quickly.

"Teacher Shen, what's wrong?" The boy followed closely behind, peeking out from her side at the same pace.

"Still pretending? You know what you've done. If you can't stand it, don't come near me." The girl took a deep breath as if she couldn't breathe, turned her face away as if she couldn't bear to watch, and continued walking quickly down the corridor.

"I didn't do anything wrong, did I?" The boy shrugged, looking completely innocent.

"Nothing happened?" The girl looked at him, her eyes widening slightly, then she clenched her teeth, her face showing disbelief. "Does Cheng Feiyu really have no awareness whatsoever of his despicable behavior?!"

"What kind of behavior could be so serious?" the boy asked calmly.

The girl turned her face away, took a deep breath, and continued walking quickly, gritting her teeth. "It's one thing to be filled with those filthy desires on my legs and feet all day long, but I've gotten used to the disgusting nature of aquatic mammals by now. I thought Cheng Feiyu's low standards were already as low as the deep seabed, but I didn't expect her to have even more absurd behavior now. It's as bizarre as a deep trench in the ocean. You can't imagine how ugly the creatures in there are if you haven't seen them."

"Is it really that exaggerated? It can't be that bad, can it?" The boy rubbed his chin.

"No way?" The girl was shocked, then her flat chest heaved violently as she cursed, "Then Cheng Feiyu, answer me now, what kind of mentality would someone have to put a high school girl's foot inside—originally thinking that following her around like a mouse every day was just to make it easier to climb up, but it turns out that this is the ultimate goal!"

The girl stopped abruptly, as if she could no longer bear it. She covered her mouth again and walked forward quickly, almost to the point of jogging.

"Teacher Shen, the only reason I'm going to talk about it is because you're so cute with your small and chubby appearance, and you have a lovely body fragrance. Plus, there are absolutely no microorganisms on Teacher Shen's skin, so there's no harm in trying it, right?" The boy followed her in silent mourning.

"That's no excuse for Cheng Feiyu to do such a thing!"

"Teacher Shen has let me kiss her hands before, so there's really no difference, right? Besides, Teacher Shen herself said that I could play around as long as it didn't disturb my sleep."

"And don't try to find excuses over there!"

The girl entered the living room from the hallway, looked around, and began to walk quickly around the sofa. Because the living room of the top-tier suite was huge, there was plenty of room to move around.

Chased by the boy, she jogged one lap and then continued with the second.

"Teacher Shen, why are you running laps now? Have you finally realized the seriousness of your weak body and decided to turn over a new leaf?" The boy followed behind her, curious.

"I don't want to get close to Cheng Feiyu, whose absurd quirks keep popping up. Who knows what else he might do to me in the future?!" The girl covered her mouth with one hand and her chest with the other, shivering as she looked on, seemingly lost in thought.

"It's nothing serious, I just thought Teacher Shen looked so beautiful and cute that she looked really delicious, so I just tried a little. Doesn't Teacher Shen often like to bite me?"

"You still dare to slander me? Get a clear picture of why I bit Cheng Feiyu – it was just a test and a warning. Nobody here would like to put a squeaking rat in their mouth!"

"When you're doing something like putting something in your mouth, there's no point in saying you don't like it." The boy shook his head and sighed.

"What is Cheng Feiyu still saying?!" The girl stopped abruptly and glared at him.

"It's nothing. I was saying that Teacher Shen is pure and virtuous, while I am filthy and vulgar." The boy lowered his head honestly.

The girl's face tightened, and she started walking forward again.

The boy stood still, watching her walk around the huge sofa once before turning to face her.

"Come on, cutie! Just a few more laps and we'll have reached today's exercise goal," the boy said earnestly.

The girl's pupils contracted, seemingly both surprised and furious, then she kicked him without hesitation, as if he were a discarded soda can on the roadside. "Trash!"

Then, he walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window and stood with his back to him, not moving an inch.

Just as Cheng Fei was about to speak, an untimely WeChat notification sound suddenly rang out.

The boy opened his phone and found a message from his tea ceremony teacher.

"Cheng Fei didn't come to school today?"

"I took leave to accompany Teacher Shen."

The boy replied immediately.

"So, as you said yesterday, you'll still come back to spend time with the cat?"

"I'll be back soon, you wait here."

"Okay~ The cat will go back to miss its owner now, it misses them so much..."

By the floor-to-ceiling window, the aloof girl first tilted her chin up to overlook the view of the coastline, her face as cold as ice. Then, she subtly turned her head to glance back out of the corner of her eye and found the boy standing there staring at his phone, biting his lip slightly.

After the boy finished replying, he put down his phone, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly walked up behind the girl. He coughed lightly and said, "Teacher Shen, have you walked enough? It's getting late. You must be eager to go home after being forced to stay with me for so long. In that case, let's end it here for today."

"..." The slender figure remained motionless.

"Mr. Shen, would you like me to drive you home, or will you go home by yourself?" The young man paused for a moment, then added formally, "Since you don't want to tell me your address, you probably plan to go home by yourself? In that case, I'll take my leave now. Thank you for your cooperation today, Mr. Shen."

After speaking, he bowed slightly with a sense of respect, took two steps back, and then turned to walk towards the door.

"Stop." The two words floated lightly in the quiet room.

The boy stopped with his back to her, a bad feeling creeping over him, and a bead of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Come back." The two words floated over again, as if looking down at him from another dimension, understated yet leaving no room for argument.

"Ms. Shen, is there anything else?" The young man turned around casually, put his hands in his pockets, and walked to her side. "Planning to have dinner with me before we part ways? That's not impossible."

At some point, the girl regained her expressionless demeanor, glanced at him, turned and walked to the sofa, pointing, "Sit down."

"Okay?" The boy did as instructed.

The girl's knees fell to either side of him as she knelt down and gazed at him face to face.

"Whose message was that just now?" The girl narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Zhou Han, reply to my request for leave." The boy didn't hesitate.

"A lie." The cold voice spoke without hesitation.

"Why does Teacher Shen care about this?" The boy's lips twitched.

"Is the vixen waiting for you to come back?" The girl lowered her eyes and sneered. "That makes sense. After all, you just received a public confession, and now you're her official girlfriend. She must be looking forward to being together."

"Sigh, let's leave aside this topic that makes Teacher Shen unhappy. If I could, I would also like to have Teacher Shen as my girlfriend, but there's no point in saying such things now. If Teacher Shen is willing to continue being forced, to be honest, I was just planning to do it tomorrow."

"No." The girl interrupted him, her voice cold and unwavering.

"You're not allowed to continue forcing me? Really?" The boy looked hesitant, as if he were serious.

"You're not allowed to go back." The girl stared at him, enunciating each word clearly.

After he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the large room became quiet.

“Teacher Shen, although I really want to force you to continue spending time with me, you said this morning that spending more time with me today is the limit and you need to set a limit. For the sake of the sustainable development of our relationship, I have decided to respect your wishes to avoid you going back to the police or something.” The young man spoke in a businesslike tone.

“They can continue to force me, make me stay against my will, and do those hard things. After all, I owe Cheng Feiyu my life, so there’s nothing I can do but cooperate. I can’t call the police no matter what.” The girl turned her face away, her soft voice, devoid of emotion, as if stating a fact.

"Teacher Shen, don't give up on yourself like this. Go back and get a good night's sleep, and come back when you're refreshed. Tomorrow is always full of hope." The boy pressed down on her shoulder, his expression becoming serious.

"Let Cheng Feiyu continue to force me, and forbid me from going back, do you understand?" The girl frowned slightly and stared at him, a little impatient.

"Teacher Shen, what's with that commanding tone?" The boy observed her, pondered for a moment, and said, "If I remember correctly, the bet we made about me being your servant is null and void. Now, I'm forcing you, Teacher Shen. Isn't it up to me to decide?"

"Excuse me, although we are no longer master and servant, I am the Empress and I still have the right to command Cheng Feiyu, who is an apostle." The girl raised her chin and turned her face away.

"Teacher Shen, I've already promised Nana I'd go home tonight, so let's just forget about it?" the boy said mournfully.

"It's none of my business." The girl squinted at the wall.

"Shen Xi, this is too extreme." The boy nudged her shoulder, forcing her to look him in the eye. "I'll continue to accompany you tomorrow, okay?"
