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

"But I still feel very uncomfortable."

"If you don't like it, come to my house next time and we'll be even."

"It's even more disgusting. Stop talking nonsense and hurry up."

"Yes, sir." Cheng Fei lay back, saluted, and closed his eyes.

Shen Xi stared at the boy's profile without moving for a few seconds before turning her gaze away and focusing her attention on the tablet.

When Cheng Fei opened his eyes as required, Shen Xi was sitting at the table, engrossed in reading. Her long eyelashes fluttered occasionally, and the warm light from the desk lamp tucked one side of her long hair behind her ear, illuminating her pure, dark eyes.

When the girl realized she was being stared at, Cheng Fei spoke up first, "Teacher Shen, what should we do since it's daytime in the game?"

"Then let's wait."

"When will that be?"

"We'll see when it's time."

“I understand, you want me to stay overnight at your place.” Cheng Fei nodded.

"I'll lend you the helmet for today, you can go now."

“Since we’re already here, I’ll stay with you until eight o’clock, and then we can order some takeout, how about that?” Cheng Fei placed his infiltration helmet next to her.

Shen Xi watched as the boy didn't ask for her opinion at all, and sat down to start doing practice problems on his own. She rubbed her temples as if she had a headache.

The room was quiet for a while.

"Teacher Shen, why are you studying celestial phenomena again?" Cheng Fei approached the girl.

"What do you want?" Shen Xi glanced at the chairs where the two were almost touching with a warning look.

"Sorry." Cheng Fei moved about ten centimeters away.

The girl stared at him coldly, without saying a word.

"Isn't that enough?" Cheng Fei moved another ten centimeters away.

The girl was still staring at him.

"I really can't do anything with you." Cheng Fei moved another ten centimeters away.

Shen Xi's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly as she turned back, saying, "This time, I need to figure out the exact route of the corridor."

"Then, shall we officially set off to find the corridor?"

"Ah."

"So, what's the purpose of capturing images from the first and fifth layers now?"

"If the game system doesn't interfere with the starry sky, I'll switch to stargazing on the first floor from now on, which will reduce the hassle and provide a better view."

"A wise choice. So how long will this stargazing trip last?"

"I don't know, maybe a month."

"Drawing every day? That's too tiring."

"No need, I will record all the footage."

"Then all you have to do is watch the replay?"

"Don't ask nonsense."

"Smart. It can be left running 24/7, and you won't get kicked offline no matter how long you leave it in the corridor." Cheng Fei thought for a moment. "After figuring out the movement route, how about we take the Shen family's private jet?"

"Airplanes are too dangerous and inconvenient; I plan to use a boat."

Cheng Fei nodded, "The corridor happens to be at sea, but ordinary small boats definitely won't do; we need large ships with ocean-going capabilities."

"I'll try to rent a yacht, but I probably can't afford to hire crew."

“It’s okay, we can learn to sail beforehand and drive ourselves. Self-driving tours are quite comfortable.”

Shen Xi turned her head to observe Cheng Fei, her face full of suspicion.

"Is there a problem?" The boy touched his face.

Why don't you argue with me?

Why should I argue with you?

"You don't believe me at all."

Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter, I like you.

"What do you mean?"

"I'll go with you to the ends of the earth, as long as you want," Cheng Fei said seriously. "I said I'd protect you, how could I let you go on an adventure all by yourself?"

The two stared at each other for a moment, then Shen Xi turned her face away expressionlessly, lowered her eyes, and said, "Sweet talk is enough for everyday use."

"Should I take leave then? It doesn't seem like it would affect my studies. Maybe I should find a short holiday or just wait for winter break," Cheng Fei muttered, stroking his chin.

"Heh, you don't need to go back to your hometown for the Spring Festival during winter break?" the girl sneered as if she had caught something out.

"Teacher Shen, let me repeat myself, I am an orphan. If you have any compassion, please start a family with me as soon as possible."

"Shut up."

……

80. Agility is a problem

At eight o'clock in the evening, night finally fell in the corridor.

"Teacher Shen, I'm ordering takeout." Cheng Fei picked up his phone with perfect punctuality.

"I want to eat out." Shen Xi frowned, clearly showing her resistance to takeout.

"No way, I have to keep an eye on the game. I can't afford to lose my equipment." Cheng Fei shrugged.

Shen Xi thought for a moment, "Then let's record for another half hour and then go out to eat."

“That works.” Cheng Fei nodded.

At 8:30, Cheng Fei put on his infiltration helmet, reconnected to the corridor, and ended the smuggling operation, packing everything into his bag.

Shen Xi changed her clothes, wearing a white inner layer with a black knitted sweater on top, and wide-leg pants and canvas shoes on the bottom.

"Teacher Shen, just as I expected."

"what?"

"You look adorable no matter what you wear." Cheng Fei looked the girl up and down.

Shen Xi glared at him expressionlessly and pressed the elevator button.

The two walked out of the apartment side by side.

"Teacher Shen, what would you like to eat?"

"That dim sum restaurant."

"Eating again?"

"Is there a problem?"

"No, it's just that I discovered something."

"If it's disgusting nonsense, then there's no need to say it."

"You are a really stubborn person."

"why?"

"If you like a certain type of yogurt, fill your refrigerator with it; if you like a certain type of bread, only buy that type; if you like a certain shop, keep going there to eat; if you've decided on something, keep doing it."

"You have a problem with that?"

No, I like you just the way you are.

"why?"

"Because someone like you will definitely continue to like them."

“I’m in the middle of nowhere.”

"How can this be called stupid? It's an endearing quality. There's a saying that geniuses are often obsessive. Obsession can also be described as focus, and focus is a very important talent."

"I agree with the latter point; you should be more focused like me."

"Am I not focused? So far, I've stuck to the things I've decided to do quite well."

"Heh, you know it yourself."

"Teacher Shen, what exactly are you referring to?"

"Shut up, I don't want to talk to you anymore."

"Ok."

After they had eaten, the boy escorted the girl back downstairs.

"See you tomorrow, Ms. Shen." Cheng Fei waved to her.

Shen Xi glanced at him expressionlessly, "See you tomorrow, Cheng Fei."

Back in his rented room, Cheng Fei received a WeChat message from his tea ceremony teacher.

"Cheng Fei"

"?"

Did anyone notice my legs this afternoon?

What happened to your leg?

"Your classmate Nana is wearing black over-the-knee socks."

"I saw it, it's beautiful."

"Cheng Fei didn't notice, actually I wasn't wearing it today because I wasn't supposed to see you."

"..."

"I don't mean to blame Cheng Fei, but since I mentioned it yesterday, I'm making it up to you now."

The next thing sent was a selfie.

She appears to be lying on a sofa, with shapely, milky-white legs. One side has an over-the-knee sock tightly wrapped around the middle of the thigh, while the other side is only pulled up to near the knee. It's a perfect treat for leg lovers.

Cheng Fei switched chat windows with a blank expression.

Teacher Shen

"?"

"Please send me a picture of your legs now. It's really important for maintaining our relationship, please."

The message was sent but disappeared without a trace, and there was no response for a long time.

"Teacher Shen?"

"You are not yet his/her friend. Please send a friend request first."

……

The last period on Friday was physical education class.

Chen Hao, Du Xinhua, and Cheng Fei are playing a soccer passing game.

The so-called football passing game is basically three people standing in a triangle, and one person kicks the ball to another, trying to get the other person to catch it. This boring game was just invented by three people.

While playing football, Chen Hao and Du Xinhua were exchanging opinions on whether competitive sports or e-sports are more difficult.

Chen Hao believes that the sweat-drenched physical competition is the true essence of challenging human limits, while Du Xinhua believes that e-sports, which tests mental strength, is the ultimate pursuit of humankind.

Since both sides held their own views and gradually deviated from the original topic, the details of their debate will be left aside for now.

After a long period of contemplation, Cheng Fei raised his head and said, "I'd like to say, if we divide a person's physical attributes into three aspects: strength, endurance, and agility, what do you think is the fastest way to improve agility?"
