All the goddesses in the world are lusting after my body.

But for some reason, the smile on my lips only grew stronger.

"Shixue, what do you think of... Tianfu University?"

Jiang Tang lay in bed, browsing information about one university after another, and suddenly asked a question.

Shi Xue, dressed lightly in just a loose-fitting women's t-shirt and underwear, was sitting on the bed drawing intently on a folded plastic table when she heard this.

"It seems pretty good. It's quite close to here, only a two-hour train ride!"

Jiang Tang's face showed disdain.

"What does distance matter? When this lease ends, wherever I go to school, you'll go too. We'll rent a place together, a big place!"

Shi Xue didn't hear the first half of Jiang Tang's rather chauvinistic statement at all, or perhaps that was her wish all along.

Her mind was solely focused on the "big house" behind her, and she beamed with joy.

"Great! Let's rent a big room with two bedrooms, a living room, a bathroom, and a kitchen!"

Jiang Tang raised an eyebrow, neither confirming nor denying.

Two rooms? Even Shi Xue is starting to have her own private space?

A strange feeling arose in Jiang Tang's heart. Before he could recover, Shi Xue continued speaking.

"Keep one room empty for emergencies, or to store some odds and ends, and have Shixue and the young master live in the other room!"

"Don't you mind the crowd?" Jiang Tang teased, but his tone was lighthearted.

It was clear that Shi Xue's words resonated with him.

"I...I'll try to sleep in the corner, and I'll only cover myself with a little blanket. Please don't send me away, young master..." Shi Xue pretended to be pitiful.

The only outcome was that Jiang Tang would pull him over and give him a good "lesson".

In no time, the bed was in complete disarray.

"Ah~ Young Master, haha... Don't, don't scratch me, it was my fault... I was wrong!"

After all that fuss, Shi Xue was completely exhausted and nestled dreamily in Jiang Tang's arms.

The latter sat close to Shi Xue's work area, putting his arm around her while looking at her sketches.

"No...~"

Shi Xue's struggles were so weak that they resembled a childish pout.

Jiang Tang pushed aside her "claws" to reveal the screen on the digital tablet.

On the screen, there was a handsome young man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes... well, let's not go on describing him, that would be a bit narcissistic, the picture on the screen is of myself.

The only difference... is that I'm still wearing clothes.

However, Jiang Tang in the painting is depicted with his upper body naked.

Looking at the canvas, which was long enough, Jiang Tang suspected that if he gave this girl another two hours, she could paint an indescribable depiction of the lower body.

"..."

Ye Shixue covered her face, which was as red as a monkey's bottom. She knew she was too ashamed to face anyone, especially her master.

"Well drawn."

Shi Xue peeked through her fingers in surprise, staring wide-eyed at the young master.

Jiang Tang simply observed the painting carefully, pointing out a few shortcomings, without feeling offended at all.

"You've used a clever trick to cover up your lack of skill over the years, and your painting style still has an academic feel to it. Here and here... try this brush."

Jiang Tang personally held Shi Xue's hand and began to draw and paint on the digital tablet.

Shi Xue held her breath and, following her master's guidance, felt all the awkwardness she had felt while painting vanish.

She suddenly remembered that, compared to herself, the young master was the artistic genius who could draw so effortlessly that even the art teacher hired by the master would be full of praise.

"Do you understand?"

"Hmm... Young Master, don't you dislike me drawing this kind of thing?"

"You call your dear young master 'thing'?"

"No, no!"

"Silly girl, as long as you don't make jokes that go too far, you can draw me as the main character in a comic book, it's fine."

"Really?"

"It's fake! I don't want to find my face in the body of the protagonist of some famous BL manga one day!"

……

At 5 p.m., the two appeared at a seafood buffet restaurant in the city center.

Shi Xue was overjoyed to have two precious concert tickets in her hands, and she confidently told Jiang Tang.

"I absolutely have to make this meal worth it!"

022 An unexpected encounter at a buffet

Jiang Tang remained calm and composed, leisurely enjoying the shrimp meat that his maid had peeled for him in the heart of the city where housing prices were in the hundreds of thousands per square meter.

Even in casual clothes, almost no one could ignore the air of someone who had been pampered since childhood about Jiang Tang.

In comparison, aside from the slightly unnatural white eye mask on her cheeks and her unforgettable charm.

Shi Xue gives people the feeling of being a lively and approachable neighbor.

As for whether she's the older sister or the younger sister, can't we have both?

Shi Xue gives people the feeling of being a kind older sister with the soul of a girl next door.

However, this feeling is only apparent when she is by the side of her master, young master Jiang Tang.

Otherwise, whether she goes out or works at a maid cafe, she always gives people the impression of being cold and aloof.

She can be conscientious and dedicated, but it's impossible for her to force a smile.

"I'll go get some sea cucumber and abalone for the young master! He'll need some to nourish himself."

"Does your young master need supplements?"

Shi Xue blushed and muttered to herself.

"It can't hurt in the end..."

Boiling water bubbled and rose in the pot. Fresh shrimp, blue crab, and neatly cut Arctic cod were added. Then, all that was left was to wait quietly for them to cook and be taken out of the pot.

Jiang Tang opened his phone, but as usual there were no messages. So he went back to the Tianfu University page to prepare for filling out his college application after the results of the college entrance examination were released.

Suddenly, a voice rang in my ears that, rather than being familiar, evoked a sense of returning to my school days.

In the past, she always did this, unexpectedly playing the sheng and xiao.

"Is Jiang's desired university... Tianfu University?"

Turning my head in the direction the sound came from, I happened to see a pair of intelligent yet gentle eyes.

Zhou Zhitu.

The girl was slightly bent over, a strand of hair falling naturally to obscure her view, but she was holding a tray full of food in her hands, making it inconvenient for her to move.

Therefore, Jiang Tang had no choice but to take over the task.

Even though such intimate behavior had never occurred between the two of them before.

But even Jiang Tang had to marvel at her beauty, which made him momentarily lose his senses.

In that instant, Jiang Tang's fingers, as if caressing a young girl's cheek, tucked her hair behind her ear and then lingered on her face.

So soft was the touch on my fingertips, as if I were sinking into a cloud.

Not far away, Ye Shixue, carrying a tray of abalone, sea cucumber, and king crab legs with light steps, was searching for her and her host's place, her heart filled with joy.

Until he witnessed this scene by sheer coincidence, his smile froze.

The perfect use of camera angles between the girl and the boy gives this scene a special meaning.

At the buffet restaurant, the girlfriend brought fresh seafood for her boyfriend, and the boyfriend, understanding her hard work, brushed away a stray strand of hair for her.

Tie up her black hair.

And what about me...? What am I then?

Ye Shixue looked at the food on the tray in her hand and her heart skipped a beat, but she quickly concealed it well.

She bit her bright red lips, which further accentuated her snow-white face and aura.

She walked towards the young master, as if it were either her or me.

Then its momentum grew weaker and weaker...

By the time she finally stood before Master, she was able to force a smile and greet the young girl.

"Excuse me, who are you...?"

She didn't forget to put down the tray, straighten her chest, and win this contest between women in silence.

Shi Xue is quite confident in her figure.

Zhou Zhitu didn't seem to care; instead, she appeared somewhat panicked and apologized repeatedly.

"I'm so sorry... I didn't know Jiang was on a date with her boyfriend. I'm sorry to have disturbed you."

The word "lover" coming from Zhou Zhitu's mouth made Ye Shixue glow with happiness.

But then she changed the subject and murmured curiously.

"But Jiang seems to have never mentioned having a boyfriend."

Ye Shixue: "..."

Tiny fish bones are often more hateful than bones, and Zhou Zhitu's words were like a fishbone stuck in one's throat.

Although Ye Shixue clearly knew in her heart what her status and identity were, she was unwilling to have them exposed by outsiders other than her master.
