"Seriously, she's a woman in her twenties, always drinking black tea. Can't she drink more alcohol?" Misaki Sasaki couldn't help but complain.

“Stupid dog…” Nanami Nagatsuki glared at Sasaki Misaki.

“Isn’t that right?” Sasaki Misaki retorted firmly.

"Heh~ I remember Chen doesn't like women who drink alcohol." Nangong Nayue sneered.

"Really?" Sasaki Misaki paused for a moment, then immediately confessed, "Actually, I can't drink much, I was just saying that casually."

"..."

Chapter 47 Treatment

Before it got dark, Shichen and Nangong Nayue returned to their apartment.

At this time, the izakaya was indeed a bit quiet, with no atmosphere for chatting at all. The three of them were just focused on eating and only had one drink.

Misaki Sasaki still wanted to go with Toki and the others to visit their house, but Nagatsuki Minami disagreed.

There was nothing she could do but wait for another opportunity.

On the way back, Shi Chen and Nangong Nayue walked side by side. The two were of different heights, and if Shi Chen hadn't looked so young, they might have been mistaken for father and daughter.

But they're definitely siblings.

However, the two are actually reversed, but since there are no outsiders present, Shi Chen would never admit that she is the older sister.

"Natsuki-chan, why didn't you just teleport back today?"

"What? You don't want me to accompany you?" Nangong Nayue frowned as she looked at him.

"No... I'm just a little curious."

"Hmph, can't I take a walk to digest my food?"

"You still want to digest?" Shi Chen looked her over and blinked.

"You know quite a lot... Never mind, I don't care. I just have something to ask you."

Why not ask this question when we get home...? Shi Chen wouldn't be so foolish as to ask it. It's a rare opportunity to travel with Nangong Nayue, so he can't let this chance to strengthen their relationship slip by.

"what's up?"

Did you encounter any problems in class today?

"So Yue-chan is worried about me?" Shichen looked at her with a smile.

Nangong Nayue sneered: "Heh~ Don't overthink it. I'm just worried that you have ulterior motives towards the female students."

"...What do you think I am?" Shi Chen's lips twitched.

"Is there a problem? If you can be interested in me, isn't it normal for you to be interested in younger girls?"

"Please, you're different from them."

"What's the difference? Aren't they all pretty much the same?"

“You are legal.” Shi Chen’s expression was serious.

"..." Nangong Nayue was speechless.

"I'm a law-abiding good man, so Yue-chan, can you please stop misunderstanding me?" Shichen asked sadly.

"...You really aren't interested in those young girls?"

"I'm really not interested. They're not even fully developed yet, what's there to be interested in?"

"..." Nangong Nayue couldn't help but look down at herself, then glared at Shichen.

"Ahem! I didn't mean this kind of development when I said development. I like flat-chested people too," Shi Chen immediately said.

"Shut up!" Nangong Nayue snapped angrily, nearly sending her fan flying at him.

"Oh." Shi Chen obediently shut up.

"I'll just trust you for now... Have you encountered any other problems?" Nangong Nayue asked, changing the subject.

"what is the problem?"

"Problems in teaching."

"What problems could possibly arise during a physical education class? We can't expect the students to start fighting, can we?"

"Isn't it still possible for students of this age?"

"Don't worry, trust me, okay?"

"Alright, I'll check the situation further." Nangong Nayue nodded. "Then I'll head back now..."

"Wait a minute!" Shi Chen quickly called out to her.

"What else?"

"I have something to report to you."

"explain."

"I might have to go out of town soon."

"Go out? Where to?" Nangong Nayue asked calmly.

“I wasn’t just wandering around. I ran into a student whose mother seemed to be quite ill and the hospital couldn’t treat her, so I had to help.”

“Her?” Nangong Nayue grasped the key point.

"Ahem, it's a female student."

"What did you just say? You're not interested in little girls?" Nangong Nayue looked at him expressionlessly.

“I’m really not interested in young girls, but she looked so lifeless that I couldn’t help but ask her.”

"And then she told you everything? You're quite something, getting a young girl to open up so easily." Nangong Nayue chuckled softly, a slightly cold laugh.

"She's a young girl, she needs someone to talk to, and I'm a teacher," Shi Chen explained.

"But you're a PE teacher!"

"Why distinguish between teachers? As long as they are adults, it doesn't matter."

"...What does that girl look like? What's her name?" Nangong Nayue asked expressionlessly.

"Why are you asking so many questions, Yue-chan? Are you jealous?" Shichen tried to brush it off.

But Nangong Nayue remained unmoved: "Speak quickly!"

"Uh... she's alright looking, her name is Aiba Asagi."

"Lan Yu... are you really just helping her?" Nangong Nayue stared at him seriously.

"Don't worry, I swear, I'm only trying to help him!" Shi Chen raised his hand.

"You also have the ability to heal?"

"Almost, but rather limited."

"Whatever you want... I hope you're not lying to me." Nangong Nayue didn't ask any more questions, turned her head, and walked forward.

"Why would I lie to you? I was even thinking of rescuing you and taking you far away."

Nangong Nayue paused for a moment, and then a magic circle appeared in front of her, which then swallowed her up.

In an instant, she vanished, leaving only one sentence behind.

"Say less unrealistic things."

“How could it be unrealistic? I’m very serious.” Shi Chen looked at the spot where Nangong Nayue had disappeared and replied with a smile.

Two days later, on Friday, while teaching a physical education class to Akira's class, Asagi Aoi took advantage of the time when everyone went to get equipment to tell him that he could go and save her mother.

"Didn't your father say anything?" Shi Chen asked curiously.

“My dad didn’t believe it at first, but when I told him that Teacher Shi was Teacher Nangong’s younger brother, he agreed.”

“Okay…” Shi Chen shook his head and chuckled.

It seems that he can only rely on Nangong Nayue to guarantee his credibility now.

This is not the situation a good man should be in. He has to find a way to rely on himself, but he can't find a way for the time being.

"Teacher Shi, when are you free?" Lan Yuqian asked expectantly.

If possible, her mother will be saved tomorrow.

"I can go today... but let's go tomorrow, Saturday is plenty of time."

"I understand. How about I pick up Teacher Shi tomorrow?"

"Do I need you to answer?" Shi Chen couldn't help but flick her forehead.

"Um...you can't get in if I don't come to pick you up, teacher." Lan Yuqian covered her forehead and pouted as she retorted.

"That's right... I'll wait for you at the school gate tomorrow morning."

“Okay!” Asagi Lanyu nodded happily.

"Teacher Shi, come and play ball!"

"We're sure we can beat you today, teacher!"

"You two... haven't learned your lesson yet?" Shi Chen turned and ran towards the two of them.

Lan Yuqian followed slowly, then joined the girls in the class, silently cheering for Shichen.

......

The next day, Shi Chen brewed some black tea for Nangong Nayue and then left the apartment to head to the school gate.

To his surprise, a discreet black car was already parked at the school gate.

"Teacher Shi." The back window of the car opened, and Lan Yuqian waved to her.

The time was for boarding from the other side.

"You're here so early?"

"Yeah, I can't wait." Lan Yuqian nodded, pursing her lips.
