I really don't want to date a girl addicted to the internet!

The girl paused for a second, then accepted the item. "Thank you."

"Can you feel my sincerity now, Shen Xi?" The boy observed her face.

"Shut up, it's one thing to use sweet talk as an excuse." The girl turned her face away and sneered.

"There's no sweet talk involved. I've already called you by your name. I just want to know your true thoughts. If you don't want to answer, just say so. I'm not expecting anything anyway." The boy shrugged.

A long silence followed.

Shen Xi suddenly raised her head, frowned, and stared at the boy with a serious expression, saying, "This time, I really felt that you, Cheng Feiyu, still have some human-like sincerity. I will respond to you at the appropriate time. Are you satisfied with that?"

Cheng Fei met her cool gaze and was surprised. "I'm satisfied. I love you too, Shen Xi."

"No need for your nonsense." The girl gritted her teeth and kicked him.

"Okay." The boy continued to bow his head.

A moment later, Shen Xi took out a tablet from her bag, placed it on the table, and turned it on.

In a dilapidated courtyard, a young girl in a blue and white sailor uniform gazes at the blue sea and sky with her back to the camera.

Shen Xi poked her.

Isena immediately appeared in front of the camera with a white umbrella, her small face beaming with a bright smile, "Good afternoon, Your Majesty, Consul."

"Teacher Shen, why is she back to using the tablet again?"

“She’s on both sides; as long as there’s internet, it can be synchronized.” Shen Xi said expressionlessly.

"Digital life is really convenient." Cheng Fei nodded in understanding. "Xiao Yi, show me the recent investment situation."

“Yes, Your Excellency.” Isena immediately opened the trading software.

Cheng Fei inspected it.

Lin Xuanqi's account showed daily returns fluctuating between 2% and 5%, a sea of ​​red that looked quite pleasing. Anyone unaware of the situation would think the stock market was in a bull market where everything was making money.

Shen Xi's account never saw a day with a return of less than 8%, as if he had a cheat code for investing in a game.

Isena's success rate in catching stocks that hit their daily limit is frighteningly high. She buys a large number of stocks every day, and even if she encounters unpredictable low-probability events such as scallops running away, the impact on her total returns is negligible. By diversifying her holdings, she smooths out probability fluctuations, which is the wisdom of mathematical statistics.

The initial capital of 1.5 million has grown to 2.3 million after a week of compound interest growth over five trading days.

The wealth that ordinary people can only accumulate in a lifetime is flowing into the pockets of these two people.

Of course, Cheng Fei didn't feel any guilt at all, after all, the stock market is risky and investment requires caution.

As he was engrossed in admiring Isena's brilliant trading strategy of perfectly buying at the bottom and accurately selling at the top, Shen Xi next to him frowned and kicked him hard under the table.

"What is it now, Teacher Shen?" The boy quickly looked up.

"Let me remind you again, the most important thing right now is to save money to upgrade Isena's hardware. If you dare to use it for anything else, I will never forgive you." The girl said coldly.

The boy's gaze swept over her small, rounded ankles and spotless uniform shoes. "Teacher Shen, have you ever thought that it's because you keep kicking me like this that my feelings for you are becoming more and more abnormal?"

……

251. Just the Daily Life of the Corridor Research Department

"Shut up! It's one thing to be inherently despicable, but to blame me for it is utterly absurd." Shen Xi glared at Cheng Fei.

The boy shrugged. "Okay, but please prepare yourself mentally, just in case we get married in the future and you, as my wife, will need to take on this responsibility."

“I told you to shut up. Even if we take a trillion steps back, after we get married, as your wife, I will still correct you as necessary. I will never let you go down this low.” Shen Xi glared at him.

"It must have been hard for you to retreat so far. You are destined to marry my virtuous wife and loving mother, Teacher Shen."

Shen Xi kicked him, her eyes fierce, "Stop your baseless delusions right now, or I can't stay in this room with you any longer."

"Okay, then never mind. I desperately want to marry Teacher Shen, who is my wife." Cheng Fei zipped up his lips.

"I can't take it anymore." The girl took a deep breath and stood up with a cold face.

"I was wrong, Teacher Shen, please forgive me." Cheng Fei quickly grabbed her small hand.

Shen Xi looked down at him with an icy gaze, "Cheng Fei, let go."

"Okay." The boy sat up straight in a second.

The girl then sat down with a furrowed brow.

Cheng Fei looked at the tablet and coughed lightly, "By the way, Xiao Yi, I have a question for you."

"Please speak, Your Excellency," came the response from the tablet.

"I've been wanting to ask you before, do you have an older sister or a younger sister?"

"I was created as a special managing apostle of the corridor, and there are no sisters in the records." The childish girl shook her head.

"Think again, someone about your height, with long hair and a blank expression, wearing a black sailor uniform, and carrying a black umbrella," Cheng Fei gestured.

“A black umbrella? Impossible. This umbrella is a symbol of control over the labyrinth; there are no similar replicas.” Isena frowned slightly. “What exactly is the Archon talking about?”

"Uh……"

Just as the boy was about to speak, the door to the club activity room was pushed open.

Nagasaki Asuna walked in nonchalantly, tilting her head, "Good afternoon, you two?"

Shen Xi frowned slightly and quickly turned off the tablet.

"Good afternoon, Nana." Cheng Fei's expression turned serious as he moved his seat to the side of Shen Xi, his gaze unconsciously sweeping over Nagasaki Asuna's over-the-knee socks.

As expected, the two girls' over-the-knee socks were almost identical in style, with the only difference being their leg shape; Shen Xi was very slender, while Nagasaki Asuna was more well-proportioned.

Shen Xi lowered her head and continued with what she was doing, letting out a cold laugh that was hard to decipher.

Asuna Nagasaki strolled over and sat down opposite Cheng Fei, resting her chin on her hand. Her clear eyes were fixed on the boy, and she tilted her head with a smile. "Have you missed me these past few days, Cheng Fei?"

The biting cold instantly swept through the entire room.

"Nana, please, please don't do this." Cheng Fei sighed helplessly.

Nagasaki Asuna glanced at the aloof girl with her eyes lowered, puffed out her cheeks, and said, "Alright."

After a moment, she turned her gaze and swept it over the two people's faces. "Um, I think I heard there were three people in here just now. Was it just my imagination?"

“You’re mistaken,” Cheng Fei said immediately.

"None of your business," Shen Xi sneered.

Asuna Nagasaki's expression remained unchanged.

The atmosphere in the room froze for a moment.

"Teacher Shen." Cheng Fei clasped his hands together.

"Is there a problem with me, Cheng Fei?" Shen Xi raised her head and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"No, let's talk about something constructive, about this week's small online performance." Cheng Fei said seriously, then looked to the other side, "Nana, is Saturday okay?"

"Is there a problem with the timing?" Nagasaki Asuna pondered for a moment.

"That's good. I'll give you the sheet music and the online performance tools when I get back. Remember to familiarize yourself with them beforehand." Cheng Fei said seriously.

"Okay, so when exactly is the concert going to be held?" Nagasaki Asuna blinked.

"Based on the progress of preparations in all aspects," Shen Xi said, exchanging glances with Cheng Fei with a blank expression, "we are tentatively scheduled to officially challenge an online concert with a capacity of 100,000 people before the midterm."

Nagasaki Asuna's bright eyes reflected their images as she muttered softly, "So fast..."

Cheng Fei browsed his phone. "After all this preparation, apart from you, each of our C-site accounts has more than 100,000 followers. Next, as long as we take advantage of the momentum to promote to the players, attracting 100,000 players to the event with a high-quality performance should not be a problem."

“Leaving me aside…” Nagasaki Asuna sighed, seemingly unintentionally.

"After all, your account has already reached a million followers through the company's management, so there's no need to say more." Cheng Fei said calmly.

At this moment, the door to the activity room was pushed open again.

Ye Shuang walked in, her gaze sweeping over the three of them. She smiled at the two besides Cheng Fei, "Shen Xi and Asuna, good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, Shuangshuang," Nagasaki Asuna replied with a smile.

Lin Xuanqi appeared a step later. The girl with cascading black hair lazily yawned, sat down on her own sofa, crossed her arms in front of her chest, raised one leg, and struck a pose as if she were resting with her eyes closed.

Cheng Fei casually moved to her side, put his arm around her small shoulders and pulled her close to his chest. He lowered his head and looked closely at her naturally charming face. "Xuanqi, didn't you sleep well?"

After a few seconds of contact, Lin Xuanqi casually pushed him away, saying, "Get lost, I'm so sleepy."

Her body naturally used it as a pillow, easily twisting and adjusting it to a comfortable position.

Lin Xuanqi closed her eyes and whispered, "Cheng Fei, come back with me later."

"Okay." The young man gently stroked her flawless face and massaged her temples.

The girl's arrogance and haughtiness remained unchanged, as did her imposing demeanor and the silky, semi-transparent pantyhose.

Asuna Nagasaki blinked at the two of them, seemingly lost in thought.

Shen Xi frowned slightly, and a chilling aura slowly emanated from her.

The room suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

Shen Xi sneered, "Some people are really living a comfortable life right now."

"Envious? It's too late for envy, Shen Xi." Lin Xuanqi's lips curled into a strangely sarcastic smile as she buried her face in the boy's chest to make herself more comfortable.

Shen Xi frowned. "What do you mean by late? That's ridiculous. I just wanted to ask why you came here. I was even planning to remove you from the club's membership list."

“Okay, go ahead and cross it out. Oh, and cross out Cheng Fei too, so he doesn’t waste his time here.” Lin Xuanqi said with a smile.

“It’s not suitable for Xuanqi. It’s hard to find a club where you can leave early,” the boy next to her quickly said.

"Don't interrupt me when I'm talking to her," Lin Xuanqi said, giving him a disgruntled look.

"Okay." The boy lowered his head immediately.

Shen Xi stared at him with the look of "looking at a slick rat in a sewer," her face full of disgust. "I can't understand how someone could be so servile."

"Who are you calling subservient? Shen Xi, it's one thing for you to insult me, but to insult my Cheng Fei as well, don't go too far." Lin Xuanqi raised an eyebrow, a murderous glint in her eyes.

……

252. Cheng Fei's life became easier.

"So what if I curse him?" Shen Xi snorted coldly, narrowing her eyes.

The sharp stare between the two lasted only a moment before Lin Xuanqi suddenly looked away.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you now." Lin Xuanqi smiled and took out a lollipop from her pocket and tore it open. "But let me remind you, next time you go out looking for trouble, don't bring him along. I don't want to hear about encountering pirates or other such absurd things again."

Shen Xi watched as Lin Xuanqi put the lollipop in her mouth, paused for a moment, and her eyes flickered. "I don't need you to remind me."

"By the way, Xuanqi, are you free this Saturday afternoon?" Cheng Fei interrupted the two girls' conversation again.

"This afternoon? I'm free, what's up?" Lin Xuanqi turned her head, a suggestive smile playing on her lips.

"We plan to put on a small band performance in the corridor."

"I'll head over there as soon as I'm done," Cheng Fei added.

"Online is fine, I'm not busy lately, I'll play with you guys." Lin Xuanqi chuckled, as if she hadn't heard his next sentence.

"Then I'll send you the sheet music, remember to practice it." Cheng Fei took out his phone.

Nagasaki Asuna watched the scene nonchalantly, then glanced at Shen Xi, who had fallen silent.

……

The club activity has ended.

The boy and girl walked out of the school hand in hand, and got into a black luxury car and drove away amidst the envious and jealous gazes of the students at Yinghua.

On the bus, the girl's expensive uniform shoes fell to the ground with a thud.

The two were in a disheveled and hurried state.
