Nobody said that teachers at elite academies have to be heartthrobs.

Yu Fuli has been sleeping very restlessly these past few days.

Nightmares would haunt him the moment he closed his eyes, and when he woke up, he always felt a heavy weight pressing on his chest, making it hard to breathe. Today, he even overslept, and when he opened his eyes, sunlight was already streaming in through the gaps in the curtains, making him squint.

He propped himself up on the edge of the bed, stared blankly for a while, and then dragged himself to wash up.

The cold water splashed on his face, but the drowsiness didn't subside at all; instead, it felt like a damp cotton ball, hanging even heavier on his eyelids. His stomach felt empty and burning, so he thought about buying a cup of milk tea to tide him over.

Sweet things can always be refreshing.

Qiyun Pavilion wasn't far away, but he was too lazy to ride his bike, so he slowly walked there along the street.

When I reached the intersection, I ran into an extremely long red light.

He stood still at the zebra crossing, the bright sunlight casting a blinding glow that made him feel even more drowsy. He yawned again, a few tears welling up in his eyes, blurring the flashing red numbers in his vision.

[Host, you seem very sleepy?]

The system's voice rang in his mind. It had taken in Yu Fuli's condition over the past few days and knew that if it didn't intervene in his mental state, things would be over.

"Hmm." Yu Fuli responded in her heart, lowering her eyelashes. "These past few days, I've been having nightmares every time I sleep."

What he didn't say was that those dreams were so real that he would be stunned for a long time after waking up, before he could confirm when and where he was.

The image of Jiang Yu coming to his door was still etched in his mind. The other party clearly carried memories from before the time travel, and the complex emotions in his eyes made him feel uneasy.

The small world has clearly regressed.

Why does Jiang Yu still remember?

If Jiang Yu remembers, then... what about Lin Xun?

Once the thought took hold, it clung to him like a vine. He wanted to go and test the waters, but Lin Xun had been using the excuse of working to save up for tuition fees and hadn't returned for several days in a row.

At first, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He was even relieved that Lin Xun hadn't come back, otherwise he really wouldn't know what expression to use to face that person.

The words spoken by that white, dough-like world consciousness in the tree hollow that night are still etched into his heart. The soft voice spoke of the cruelest things, each word taking root in his mind. So much so that now, whenever he thinks of Lin Xun, he involuntarily recalls the way the other died tragically.

Yu Fuli knew he was a fox with a sense of morality.

Otherwise, after he gained his wisdom, he could have lived freely in the mountains and fields like those wild foxes. Why would he have bothered to think about the public good and learn to live a conventional life in human society?

He values ​​human morality and etiquette. He is even willing to help those in need within his capabilities.

So when he heard Lin Xun say on the phone that he wouldn't be back for the next few days, he held his phone and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

But before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, Jiang Yu came knocking on his door.

Jiang Yu still carries her memories.

What about Lin Xun?

Yu Fuli dared not think further; how painful would it be to be strangled to death?

My trachea was blocked, my breathing was cut off, I felt a burning, suffocating sensation in my chest, and my vision gradually darkened until I couldn't see anything at all.

If Lin Xun really does have memories...

So now, is he still trapped in that nightmare every night? Repeating the moment he was strangled over and over again, unable to wake up, unable to escape.

And all of this was caused by him.

Before that fleeting sense of relief could even settle, it was crushed into dust by an overwhelming wave of guilt, weighing heavily on his heart, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

【Host? 】

The system's voice sounded at the right time, carrying a cautious concern.

Don't be sad. Tell me what happened, and I can help you.

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Fuli noticed the system interface flicker. The familiar icon had changed, and the system had switched her to the "Psychological Master" section, even adopting a posture of being ready to listen at any time, with a small stool already prepared.

Yu Fuli knew the system's tricks.

These systems, besides assisting the host in completing tasks in the small world, ensuring the host's safety, and supervising against any reckless actions, also serve as the host's psychological listeners. After all, the small worlds are ever-changing, and the plot never follows a script. Most of the small worlds that require completing tasks are inherently unstable, and the plot can easily veer off in a bizarre direction, impossible to reverse.

In such a world, the hosts who undertake missions are easily affected by the absurd plot and experience indescribable things.

Therefore, the systems are all equipped with psychological modules so that, in case something really happens, they can provide the host with timely psychological comfort.

Of course, Yu Fuli knew the main reason was that he was afraid the hosts would be so badly affected that they would quit immediately.

The Quick Transmigration Bureau already has a small number of employees; if they all leave, it would truly be a loss.

But at this moment, it's always good to have someone from his "family" who's willing to listen to him.

Yu Fuli paused for a moment before speaking, "Qiaoqi invited me to a hot spring hotel, but when I arrived I found out that Jiang Yu had used Qiaoqi to invite me, so I prepared a rather revealing outfit."

The system listened, and the small light on the interface bobbed up and down, as if nodding.

Yes, that's very much Jiang Yu's style.

Yu Fuli then briefly summarized what had happened during this period, speaking slowly and calmly.

The system was astonished, and the light spots on the interface flickered and left afterimages.

It never expected that its host would be so wild during the time it was away.

It's so spicy.

It likes it.

"And then?" the system asked, the light spot moving closer, like someone listening intently to gossip.

"Then Jiang Yu kidnapped Lin Xun." Yu Fuli paused, "and even drugged me, and then we..."

He paused again.

"...and Lin Xun witnessed the whole thing."

【Um. 】

The system responded instinctively.

【Um? 】

The light spot stopped.

【Um?!】

The system interface is flashing wildly; the CPU is about to burn out.

How did things escalate from dog training to sex?

And the main character was watched by everyone the whole time?!

It remained silent for three seconds, and the light spot on the interface slowly shrank into a question mark, hovering there for a long time without dissipating.
