I'm a senior in high school, and the Emperor Development System has arrived!

Chapter 139 The United Xia Mi Alliance

"technology?"

Lu Mi suddenly raised her head, her wet eyes filled with a mixture of shame and indignation, along with a hint of confusion.

Her entire face turned as red as if it were about to bleed, and even her neck was tinged with a thin layer of pink.

How is this feeling any different from having just finished a performance?
Chen Zhou...

It was obviously intentional.

"Technology..."

Her voice was soft and trembling as she glared accusingly at Chen Zhou's triumphant smile.

Finally, her pent-up emotions exploded. Lu Mi grabbed a pillow from beside her and, without thinking, threw it at Chen Zhou's face.

"Your skills are terrible! You pervert! You lecherous senior!"

The soft pillow landed on Chen Zhou's chest, posing no threat whatsoever, but rather like a coquettish confirmation.

Chen Zhou swiftly grabbed the edge of the pillow and pressed it back onto the bed, leaning forward slightly to trap Lu Mi between himself and the bed.

"Completely rotten?"

He raised an eyebrow, his voice deepening, his gaze fixed intently on her blushing face:
"Junior, don't lie through your teeth. Who was so comfortable that their toes were curled up just now? Hmm? And who was so weak at the end that they had no strength left? Hmm?"

"Ah! You...you shut up!"

When Lu Mi was exposed, she was so ashamed that she wanted to bury herself in the pillow.

But with the pillow pressed down by him, she could only helplessly cover her burning cheeks with her hands.

Chen Zhou looked at her like this, smiled gently, and said:

"I'll let you off this time, but I'll show you what's what next time."

Lu Mi's heart skipped a beat at his words "next time," and her embarrassment and annoyance instantly overshadowed the tingling sensation she had felt earlier.

She suddenly raised her hand to push him away, but her strength was as soft as cotton.
"Who, who wants a next time! You big scoundrel!"

Chen Zhou stood up and said meaningfully:
"Next time, senior won't be so well-behaved."

Upon hearing this, Lu Mi shuddered and shrank back behind the bed.

Seeing her like this, Chen Zhou chuckled:

"Just kidding. Senior, you've always been an upright and honest person. How could you do something like this?"

After saying that, he put away the essential oil bottle and left Lu Mi's room with a leisurely air.

Seeing Chen Zhou close the door, Lu Mi finally breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart was still pounding.

Her gaze shifted downwards, then her face flushed slightly, and she clenched her fists.

It's all that stinky senior's fault...

I'm studying history now.

……

Chen Zhou returned to his room, glanced at the time, and found it was only eight o'clock, so he took out his holiday homework.

A total of three days off.

Two days have passed, and the mountain of homework still hasn't been touched.

I'm going to the comic convention with Bai Qianqian tomorrow.

Chen Zhou looked at the composition of the assignment and found that Shao Xi, that unscrupulous old man, was especially despicable.

Mathematics alone made up half of the holiday homework.

You only scored 150 points in one subject, which should only account for 1/5 of the total score. Consider whether this is due to your own shortcomings.

Then there's another third of English, and the rest is politics, history, and geography.

As for Chinese language, Mr. Ren Feng, the No. 1 most beloved teacher, doesn't assign any homework during holidays.

If only all teachers were as adorable as Ren Feng.

Chen Zhou sighed slightly and began to think about how to solve this homework that resembled milky white snowflakes.

After thinking for a long time, he logged onto QQ, preparing to remotely summon a master to come out of seclusion:
"Class representative, it's extremely urgent, I need your help."

After a while, Lin Xiaomeng replied:

"What's the matter?"

Chen Zhou stated frankly:
"I can't finish my homework, please come to my house and help me finish it!"

Lin Xiaomeng typed a question mark:
"??? No, it's not that I don't want to help you with your homework, but it's so late and I'm going to your house..."

Chen Zhou quickly reassured him:
"It's alright, do you think I'm going to eat you? Besides, my parents are home."

Hearing that Chen Zhou's parents were home, Lin Xiaomeng felt a little relieved, but still hesitated and said:

"But I always feel that this is not appropriate..."

Chen Zhou sighed helplessly and unleashed his ultimate move:
"Class representative, you didn't want this either..."

Before Chen Zhou could send another message, Lin Xiaomeng immediately agreed:
"Okay! I'll go! But you can't do anything too outrageous!"

Chen Zhou patted his chest and said:

"Class representative, we've been classmates for over two years, don't you know me yet?"

Lin Xiaomeng sent a sighing emoji:

"It's because I understand you that I..."

Several black lines appeared on Chen Zhou's face:

"???"

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Lin Xiaomeng quickly changed the subject:
Send me your location, I'm coming over now.

Chen Zhou sent his location.

Then Lin Xiaomeng exclaimed in surprise:

"We don't live far apart! I live in Dongfang Jiayuan."

Chen Zhou was stunned. Dongfang Jiayuan was indeed not far from Xingfu Jiayuan, about two or three blocks away.

He replied with a smile:
"That's fantastic! The class representative can come and help me with my homework more often now."

Lin Xiaomeng was speechless and began to condemn her own foul mouth.

It would have been better not to say that at all.

But since things had come to this, she could only helplessly say:
"Wait ten minutes, I'll be right there."

Chen Zhou sent an "Mmm" emoji:

"Thank you for your hard work, class representative!"

Seeing that he had successfully recruited someone, he leaned back in his chair, looked at the homework on the table, and a relaxed smile appeared on his lips.

A major matter has been resolved.

He wouldn't bother writing it himself if there were free labor available.

With a few minutes to spare, Chen Zhou opened Douyin (TikTok).

He Lili's video was released as scheduled.

About seven or eight minutes later, the doorbell rang as expected.

Chen Zhou, shuffling in his slippers, strolled leisurely towards the entryway and addressed Chen Fang, who was about to get up and open the living room door:

"Dad, he's my classmate."

Upon hearing this, Lao Deng nodded, assuming it was Li Bin or Zhou Xinglun.

Chen Zhou opened the door.

Standing outside the door was Lin Xiaomeng, who was holding a canvas bag and looked somewhat worried.

However, she finally felt relieved when she saw that Chen Zhou's parents were indeed sitting on the sofa.

Seeing the familiar pigtails, Chen Zhou took a pair of guest slippers from the shoe rack, then smiled and pointed to the dining table:

"Don't be so anxious, just write here."

Lin Xiaomeng nodded, changed her shoes, sat down at the dining table, and then greeted Chen Zhou's parents who were on the sofa:

"Hello, uncle and aunt!"

When Shen Qinghe and Chen Fang saw that a beautiful girl had entered, they first smiled and responded, but then they couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.

If someone can be invited to your home, then the relationship must be quite special.

That relationship is unusual, but just how unusual? That's another thorny question.

After what happened in the past two days, the two of them were somewhat disgusted with the girl next to Chen Zhou.

After settling Lin Xiaomeng in, Chen Zhou headed towards the room:
"Wait a moment, I'll bring the homework over."

Lin Xiaomeng nodded, and just as she put down her canvas bag and was about to take out her pen—

On the other side of the living room, the bedroom door was gently pushed open a crack.

Lu Mi, who was about to go to the restroom, suddenly froze when she saw Lin Xiaomeng on the dining table:

A pretty girl? Appearing at Chen Zhou's house late at night?

In an instant, countless thoughts popped into her mind, but they all ultimately pointed to one point:
What is the relationship between Lin Xiaomeng and Chen Zhou?
Is it possible...

Is she about to have another competitor?
Hey senior, can't you just shut up for once?

At this moment, Lin Xiaomeng, sensing that something was wrong, also looked up in confusion.

She saw Lu Mi dressed in a cool and simple outfit deep in the corridor and couldn't help but open her mouth in surprise.

Although she always kept a close eye on everything else and focused solely on studying the classics.

But ever since Lu Mi brought food to Chen Zhou last time, she has also learned about the situation from her classmates.

But the problem now is—

How did Lu Mi end up living in Chen Zhou's house?
Lin Xiaomeng was still in awe of this discovery, which was no less surprising than when she first learned that the airplane learning method could improve grades.

The two exchanged surprised and bewildered glances in the air, and time seemed to stand still for a moment.

Chen Zhou came out carrying his homework, only to find that the situation outside was not optimistic.

It was only then that he suddenly realized this problem.

Lu Mi was staying at his house, which was a secret that could not be known to anyone.

However, this secret has now been discovered by Lin Xiaomeng because of his momentary carelessness.

Chen Zhou was thinking about how to "kill him to silence him," but he maintained a lazy, innocent expression on his face.

He paused for only a moment, then very naturally walked to the dining table with his homework in his arms.
"Class representative, the task is arduous, and these are the main points."

Lin Xiaomeng twitched the corners of her mouth, her eyes full of questioning:

"Good heavens, so you haven't changed a single word?"

Chen Zhou scratched the back of his head and said with a smile:
"I can't help it, I've been busy these past few days."

Lin Xiaomeng, seeing through everything, blushed and said:
"Busy dating your girlfriend, huh?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhou's expression turned serious, and he said solemnly:
"Class representative, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I am a person who is not changing my name or surname, and I am currently still single."

Lin Xiaomeng scoffed, looking completely unconvinced.

She said slowly:

"Say what you will, after all, you have something on me, and I dare not refute you..."

Because there were other people around, the two were communicating almost in encrypted form.

But in Chen Fang and Shen Qinghe's eyes, this became a symbol of intimacy.

Chen Fang stared at Shen Qinghe, his gaze sharp as a knife, as if to say:
"Look at the fine son you've raised."

Shen Qinghe glared back:
"It's not like you're the one talking about?"

Then, the two of them sighed at the same time.

What terrible karma did I create to give birth to such a child?
Lu Mi, with her doe-like eyes narrowed, walked out of the bathroom and looked at the two who were doing their homework together with a subtle expression.

After thinking for a moment, she pretended to come out to watch TV and sat down next to the sofa.

Then, Shen Qinghe and Chen Fang stared at each other silently, like two statues nailed to the ground.

What to do? Suddenly I feel awkward.

Next to her is Lu Mi, with whom she has lived for some time.

The person sitting at the dinner table was a classmate of my son whom I did not know.

The parents were sitting there feeling like they were sitting on pins and needles.

An extremely eerie silence filled the living room.

Even the exaggerated advertising on TV couldn't mask the suffocating embarrassment.

However, at that moment, a knock on the door broke the silence.

Chen Zhou got up and opened the door amidst the relieved looks of the two old men.

As soon as the door opened, Jiang Xia beamed with a bright and energetic smile:
"I came to ask you to help me with my homework..."

Before she could finish speaking, she looked at Lin Xiaomeng sitting at the dining table, and her smile instantly froze on her face.

When Lin Xiaomeng saw another official wife appear, her fingers gripping the pen tightened suddenly.

She suddenly lowered her head, her face turning bright red at a visible speed.

Not many people know about Lu Mi's relationship with Chen Zhou.

But anyone in Class 8 knows the relationship between Jiang Xia and Chen Zhou.

The moment Lin Xiaomeng put herself in Jiang Xia's shoes, she felt utterly ashamed.

Late at night, a strange woman appeared at her boyfriend's house.

However, when this unfamiliar woman turned out to be none other than herself.

Lin Xiaomeng felt as if her world was about to collapse.

At this moment, the toes inside the slippers have already started to grip the ground.

If Chen Zhou's home were to remain in this atmosphere for another half hour, its original 100-square-meter area might become 200 square meters.

On the sofa, Shen Qinghe and Chen Fang reacted even more dramatically.

The situation between the two of them was already awkward enough, and now Jiang Xia has to come along too?

That scene was less painful than simply killing them.

The two old men exchanged a glance and immediately understood each other's meaning.

Chen Fang stood up, smiling, and walked towards the kitchen:

"Xia is here. Please have a seat. Let me pour you some water."

After pouring a glass of water for each of the three, he and Shen Qinghe said in unison:
"You guys chat! We're going back to our rooms to rest!"

Before the words were even finished, the two had already returned to their room and slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

"..."

An even more eerie silence fell over the living room.

All that's left are the noisy TV commercials promoting their "powerful dandruff remover," their shrill voices making one's heart race.

At this moment, Jiang Xia also sat down at the dining table, looking at Lin Xiaomeng with a puzzled expression, and asked Chen Zhou:

"Who is this……"

Although Jiang Xia often hangs out in Class 8, it's impossible for him to know everyone in Chen Zhou's class.

Moreover, Chen Zhou and Lin Xiaomeng's relationship wasn't exactly close before.

Chen Zhou pursed his lips, a hint of embarrassment at being caught in bed with someone else appearing on his face, and then replied:
"This is Lin Xiaomeng, the math class representative in my class. I called her over to do my homework."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xia and Lu Mi both raised their eyebrows in confusion:
"Homework writing service?"

Faced with a new enemy, the Xia Mi Alliance is more united than ever before.

Chen Zhou nodded quickly, gave Lin Xiaomeng a reassuring look, and then said:
"There's just too much homework, and we definitely won't be able to finish it on the last day. Luckily, she offers homework-writing services, so we asked her to make the trip."

Hearing Chen Zhou's explanation, it made perfect sense, and the two of them instantly breathed a sigh of relief, becoming much more amiable towards Lin Xiaomeng.

Seeing that Chen Zhou had given her a way out, Lin Xiaomeng nodded repeatedly and said:
"Yes, yes, I'm just here to do my homework. Don't worry, Chen Zhou and I are just ordinary classmates."

These words, once spoken, made the two of them wary again.

They knew Chen Zhou's personality all too well; he was always talking nonsense. How could they believe everything he said?
Moreover, Lin Xiaomeng's obvious attempt to conceal something immediately put alarm bells in their minds.

Jiang Xia and Lu Mi exchanged a glance, confirming a common understanding:
This woman is hiding something!
After noticing the changes in Jiang Xia and Lu Mi, Chen Zhou couldn't help but shake his head inwardly, then glanced at Lin Xiaomeng.

Why do you have to say so much?

It makes it seem like we're really together.

At this moment, Chen Zhou felt an unprecedented sense of sorrow.

Why is it so hard to be a pure boy who won't be misunderstood?
