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

"Then can't you tolerate Ye Shuang a little longer..." Nagasaki Asuna muttered.

"You vixen, before you let your sympathy get the better of you, make sure Ye Shuang doesn't need your sympathy. Do you think she's taken a lot of benefits from the Lin family since she was a child? She's been loyal to the Lin family. Do you think she'd be a traitor given her temperament? You should be grateful you don't have to be her enemy in the future." Shen Xi narrowed her eyes.

“But I can tell that Ye Shuang is very sad and conflicted. Maybe she really thought about betraying Lin, but she didn’t dare. She was afraid that Cheng Fei was just playing with her and that she would have nothing left. So she decided to keep it to herself and endure it. If we help her, maybe the outcome will be different.” Nagasaki Asuna pressed her hands on her chest with a little force, as if she were empathizing with the feelings of the other girl.

Shen Xi glanced at her, then looked ahead and said coldly, "Then we absolutely cannot help her."

"Why? Aren't you and her friends? You're all happy living together. You've been adventure partners together, it's so strange to separate and become enemies like this." Nagasaki Asuna's voice trembled slightly.

"You vixen, do you think it's not strange to sleep with her? Then call her over to share a room with you, and the two of you can be considered one person. You can do whatever you want with that scumbag, but don't come out here to disgust me. I have no objection if you want to do this." Shen Xi raised her voice.

“Shen Xi classmate…” Nagasaki Asuna lowered her head, her hands hidden behind her back, her fingers twisted together.

at the same time.

Cheng Fei placed his hands on the steering wheel and watched as the pretty girl with pigtails got into the passenger seat with a cool expression. His gaze swept over her long, straight, and pleasing legs, which were covered in white over-the-knee socks, and he stepped on the gas.

The silver Panamera drove out of the Sakura parking lot and merged into the traffic.

"Master Ye, where are we going now?" the young man asked casually.

"My home." The girl paused for a second, her clear voice devoid of emotion.

"Xuanqi is at your house? What's going on?" Cheng Fei was taken aback.

"Not here." Ye Shuang raised her chin, her eyes flickering, her expression unreadable.

Cheng Fei glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, "So you're going to go home to get your things first, and then go to South Bay?"

"No, we're going to my house. It has nothing to do with Miss." Ye Shuang frowned slightly.

"Didn't you say Xuanqi wanted to see me about something..." Cheng Fei thought for a moment, then realized, "Damn it, Master Ye, you actually forged an imperial edict?"

Ye Shuang remained silent.

"You should at least tell me what you're going to do, right?" The boy smacked his lips.

"You'll see when you get there," the girl said, her expression unchanged.

"Couldn't you have given me a heads-up? You're scaring me." The boy observed her beautiful yet ruthless profile.

"There's nothing to reveal," Ye Shuang said without even looking at him.

"Alright," the boy had no choice but to nod.

Soon, the Panamera stopped in the community garage, and a young boy and girl entered the elevator one after the other. The stagnant atmosphere was completely different from the last time they came.

Upon arriving at the familiar duplex apartment, Ye Shuang opened the door, bent down to get slippers for the boy, and seeing him peeking around, she lowered her eyes and said, "No one's here, come in."

Cheng Fei glanced at the girl's face and nodded, "Okay."

Their methodical way of speaking conveyed a sense of unspoken understanding.

"Come here." Ye Shuang walked straight upstairs, leaving him with an unusually cold back view.

Cheng Fei followed the girl into the bedroom, which was filled with a dizzying array of comics and related merchandise, exuding a strong anime and manga vibe.

"Wait here." Ye Shuang walked to the desk, opened the drawer, found the envelope hidden deep inside, and slammed it into the boy's arms with great force. "See for yourself."

The girl sat down on the chair without saying a word and stared at the wall.

Cheng Fei glanced at her suspiciously, opened the envelope, and found a stack of photos inside. Upon seeing the contents, the boy's pupils contracted.

Near the ticket gate in the waiting hall, a girl with short, brown hair tiptoed and threw herself into the arms of a tall, handsome boy. The two embraced tightly, as if they wanted to become one...

"Master Ye, where did this come from?" The young man looked at the girl without saying a word.

Ye Shuang stared at the wall. "Is this question important?"

The young man's expression hardened. "Master Ye, please let me explain. It's a misunderstanding. At the time, Nana was overwhelmed by the entertainment company's problems and was preparing to return to Japan. I helped her resolve the issue at the last minute, so she excitedly threw herself into my arms. There's nothing more to our relationship. Please don't tell Xuanqi, otherwise she..."

"Enough, Cheng Fei, you don't need to explain to me." Ye Shuang interrupted him, her tone unusually calm. "This was taken by my people when Madam Lin secretly asked me to monitor you without Miss's knowledge. No one else knows about it except me. I was going to continue investigating, but I'll let it go now. As a way of repaying your life-saving grace, I'll pretend I don't know anything about this. We're even. If I find out you ever do anything to wrong Miss again, I will show no mercy. You'd better watch yourself."

552. Ye Shuang's love affair ended before it even began.

"Master Ye, I'll be going now." The young man waved with a smile.

Ye Shuang simply nodded, her face expressionless.

As the door slammed shut, the girl with pigtails stood motionless, staring at the door, her slender hands clenched tightly, as if waiting for something.

After a moment, the girl shook her head vigorously, her smooth black hair swaying, and turned to go upstairs.

Ye Shuang returned to her bedroom, expressionless, and like a robot, tidied up the scattered comics on the table. Then she hugged one of them to her chest, leaned back on the bed, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

"Is this... alright?" the girl murmured to herself, her eyes slightly red.

She rolled over, lay on her stomach on the bed as usual, and opened the comic book in her hand, only to find that it was the last volume of "The Witch Who's Good at Making Love Potion and the Serious Knight".

The girl flipped to the end and saw the witch and the princess in wedding dresses, their faces beaming with smiles, each arm in arm with a disheveled knight.

"It's so good that we can finally be together..."

Unlike her relationships, which ended before they even began, it's strange.

……

As dusk fell, the silver Panamera sped towards Guang'an Street.

The boy gripped the steering wheel, made a phone call via Bluetooth, and placed the envelope on the passenger seat.

The call connected, and a familiar, sweet voice came from the other end, "Hello, Cheng Fei?"

"Have you eaten yet?" the boy asked casually.

"Huh? I was just about to do that."

"I bought some groceries when I got back."

"Is everything alright with Lin?"

"It's alright, let me talk about it when I get there."

"Okay~ Kitty is waiting for its owner." The girl's voice on the other end was filled with excitement.

……

Shen Xi stepped out of the bedroom, her smooth, delicate nostrils twitching as she caught a whiff of an enticing fragrance.

The girl walked out expressionlessly, saw the boy's back as he was busy in the kitchen with Nagasaki Asuna, and sneered, "That guy surnamed Lin won't even give you dinner, or has he finally broken up with her?"

"Teacher Shen, although I know you're really looking forward to that day, it's just too cute how you keep saying you can't wait," Cheng Fei said, glancing at her with a hint of teasing.

Shen Xi's expression changed, and she sat down at the dining table with a cold look on her face. "No one here expects that kind of thing."

The boy was busy thickening the sauce before the dish was finished cooking and did not respond.

Shen Xi shifted her gaze and saw an envelope on the table. She picked it up, opened it, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Cheng Fei, what's going on?" Shen Xi stared at a stack of photos, her brows furrowed slightly.

"Ye Shuang gave it to me." The boy placed the still-steaming tomato and shrimp balls in front of the girl, along with a pair of chopsticks. "She said we're even now."

Shen Xi's eyes flickered, and she shoved the photo back with disgust. "Heh, Cheng Feiyu is out fooling around with vixens all day long. It's no surprise that she got caught. If it weren't for luck saving her life, you would be confronting that Lin guy right now."

“Teacher Shen, this isn’t just luck. These photos are from two months ago. The fact that she’s kept quiet for so long proves that my efforts to improve her favorability were absolutely correct.” Cheng Fei untied his apron and brought out the sushi and other dishes made by Nagasaki Asuna.

"To toy with the feelings of innocent girls for his own selfish gain and then feel smug about it, Cheng Feiyu is indeed heartless and ungrateful." Shen Xi sneered.

"Don't mention it. I was just trying to protect myself. Besides, she's Lin Xuanqi's number one henchman, so she's not exactly an innocent girl, is she? Furthermore, what I'm doing now at least proves my loyalty to both of you, so please don't call me heartless." Cheng Fei went to get the bowls and chopsticks, and when he came back, he found that one of the tomato shrimp balls on the plate was missing. The aloof girl put the chopsticks far away, acting as if it was none of her business.

Nagasaki Asuna wiped the kitchen countertop, sat down next to Shen Xi, and noticed the chopsticks of unknown origin in front of her. Her eyes darted around, and she quickly poked a tomato shrimp ball into her mouth. With a look of enjoyment, she rested her chin on her hands, squinted her eyes, and puffed out her cheeks as she chewed, as if it were some kind of heavenly delicacy. After swallowing the food, she said, "I also think that although Cheng Fei seems frivolous on the surface, he is actually very devoted to us, so Shen Xi, please don't say that."

Shen Xi watched her every move the whole time, his brows furrowed. "Before you defend him, you should at least understand the meaning of the word 'devotion' itself."

"Then focus on the second major?" Nagasaki Asuna tilted her head, intending to poke another tomato shrimp ball, when she noticed the aloof girl next to her staring at her with a murderous gaze. She shivered and quickly put down her chopsticks.

"Gentlemen, let's eat." Cheng Fei sat down opposite Nagasaki Asuna and casually served each of them a tomato and shrimp ball.

Shen Xi lowered her eyes and stared at the food in the bowl. After a moment of silence, she slowly picked up some food and began to eat.

Nagasaki Asuna, who was sitting next to her, had already finished her sushi with a happy expression, and then picked up another piece for herself. "Cheng Fei, is this really okay?"

"Like this?" the boy asked, looking at her.

"I'm breaking off all ties with Ye Shuang."

"It's not as extreme as breaking off all ties, is it?"

"But I feel like we've broken off all ties. You two will never be as close as before, right?" Nagasaki Asuna asked with a worried expression.

"Idiot, isn't this a good thing for you?" The boy raised an eyebrow.

"Is it a good thing? But I feel sorry for Ye Shuang." Nagasaki Asuna put down her chopsticks, pressed her chest and sighed softly, "Looking at her is like seeing myself back then."

"It's not as exaggerated as you think. At least she won't act like she's going to die. She'll calm down after a while." The boy shrugged.

"So Cheng Fei really doesn't like her at all? He didn't even try to keep her this afternoon." Nagasaki Asuna tilted her head, her bright eyes clearly reflecting the boy's figure.

Shen Xi kept her head down and didn't say a word, as if she was focused on eating.

Cheng Fei paused for a second, then ate his sushi with a nonchalant air. "To be honest, I also think she's quite cute, very upright, single-minded, and a reliable companion. But ultimately, I was just using her. How could I possibly like her?"

“A lie.” Nagasaki Asuna stared at him intently, her voice stubborn.

"So all this time he just didn't dare to admit it. What a hypocritical and cowardly Cheng Feiyu." Shen Xi sneered heavily.

The boy was a little embarrassed. "Uh, Ms. Shen, we've been through thick and thin together, so it's only natural to have some feelings for each other. But as the old saying goes, actions speak louder than words. I've already distanced myself from her, so please don't pursue this further. Nana, please keep your mind-reading abilities in check at times like this."

"I know." Shen Xi narrowed her eyes and turned her face away.

"Um, actually... I want Cheng Fei to bring her over!" Nagasaki Asuna suddenly slammed her chopsticks on the table, raising her voice, "She's clearly our comrade, whether she's a lover or not, as long as we're all happy together, isn't that all that matters? Why worry about so much!"

"You vixen are at it again. Do you even know what nonsense you're spouting?" Shen Xi pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed deeply. "I think you really need to see a psychiatrist, or you'll drive yourself crazy sooner or later."

553. Cheng Fei refuses the mission.

"I just don't want Ye Shuang to be abandoned like this. If you mind, then just treat me and Ye Shuang as one person, as you said!" Nagasaki Asuna stared intently at Shen Xi.

"You're really loyal. Have you ever thought that once this scumbag finds a new love and forgets his old one, you'll be the one who gets used and dumped? You'd better look forward to the day when Ye Shuang pities you just as much as he does when you're kicked out and become a stray cat." Shen Xi sneered.

“I don’t think Cheng Fei is that kind of person!” Nagasaki Asuna’s eyes trembled.

"Heh, I advise you not to be so confident if you can't really read minds." Shen Xi crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"In the end, it's your own opposition that's the problem. Don't use me as an excuse. Every day you say it doesn't matter how much Cheng Fei goes out and fools around, making it seem like you're very magnanimous, but you're actually a petty and selfish person. The so-called Celestial Queen is just pretending to be high-minded!" Nagasaki Asuna spoke faster.

Shen Xi's expression changed, her eyes narrowed, and her voice turned cold, "Vixen! So who gave you the courage to yell at me again? First, understand your own identity. What right do you have to decide Ye Shuang's affairs?"

The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became tense, as if dark thunderclouds were looming overhead, making everyone uneasy.

"You two!" The young man beside him raised his hand to block their view of the confrontation. "Listen to me, give Cheng Fei some face. Since things have come to this, how about we eat first?"

"Teacher Shen, please don't be angry, I will teach her a lesson."

"Nana, calm down. I know you sympathize with Ye Shuang, but please don't do this."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Xi snorted coldly, turned her face away with a flickering look in her eyes, and picked up her chopsticks.

“Cheng Fei, classmate…” Nagasaki Asuna bit her lip and lowered her head to poke at her rice with her chopsticks.

Like a fleeting downpour, the air at the dining table calmed down.

After a while.

"Shen Xi, how despicable!" Nagasaki Asuna suddenly shouted.

"What's gotten into this vixen now?!" Shen Xi retorted without backing down.

"You ate all the tomato shrimp balls by yourself?!"

"Didn't you eat two too?!"

"So I only got to eat those two!"

"Letting you eat two is already the maximum I've tolerated. That's enough!"
