"Heh, starting to play dumb, Cheng Feiyu's usual trick." The girl crossed her arms in front of her chest and glanced at him with disdain.

"Could it be a problem with the chat history? Nana told me you read our chat history." The boy rubbed his chin.

"Don't waste any more time spouting nonsense." The girl narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Little cutie, are you really that concerned about whether or not she and I use props?" the boy asked cautiously.

The girl frowned, turned her head, and stared at the boy with an incredulous yet condescending expression.

"Teacher Shen, you know that your asymmetrical eyes are also cute?" the boy asked, scrutinizing her.

"Cheng Fei, I have a question for you." The girl took a deep breath, her expression becoming serious.

"Please speak," the boy said, sitting up straight.

"If things continue like this, and something goes wrong one day, are you planning to just go along with it and marry that vixen?" The girl's voice was soft, and her tone was devoid of any emotion.

"Don't mention it, I've said I would definitely marry Teacher Shen." The boy looked at her tense little face.

The girl paused for a second, unmoved, then asked, "What about the child?"

"Child? Whose child?" The boy looked at her, his expression genuinely bewildered.

"You and that vixen." The girl spoke slowly and deliberately, her gaze sharpening.

"Don't worry, Ms. Shen, it definitely won't happen." The boy looked at her earnestly.

The girl remained expressionless and silent for a moment.

The atmosphere in the club activity room fell into a deathly silence.

"Shen Xi, I didn't lie to you, you actually believe that?" the boy added.

The girl's pupils contracted, and her expression suddenly became strange.

"Teacher Shen, what kind of expression is that?"

"Cheng Fei."

"what?"

"You...you really aren't human?" The girl looked him up and down, her surprise and doubt as if she had suddenly realized something.

The boy opened his mouth, "You mean I'm not human, right? That's not true."

The girl's eyes flickered. "Call me by my name."

"Shen Xi, I'm human, is that alright?" the boy said immediately.

The girl fell silent again, this time staring at him with a hint of sympathy and pity, making her look even stranger.

"Teacher Shen, although your little expressions are cute all the time, can you just say what you want to say directly?"

"Cheng Fei, so you actually... have a problem with your bodily functions?" the girl asked hesitantly.

The boy paused for a moment, then said in a moment of silence, "Teacher Shen, please stop using your excessive imagination. I'm perfectly healthy, thank you."

“Then the fox spirit has a physical problem.” The girl spoke quickly, as if she had finally found the right answer and felt relieved.

"Unless something unexpected happens." The boy shook his head decisively.

"Then why is that?" The girl frowned, her face showing confusion.

"It's a secret." The boy made a shushing gesture. "Anyway, there won't be any problems. Teacher Shen, don't overthink it. If you really want tiramisu, you can just snuggle into my arms and act cute."

The girl ignored him as if it were the most natural thing in the world, picked up the tiramisu on the table, slightly parted her pink lips, took a spoonful, looked into the distance, her small face showing a thoughtful expression, her eyes flickering.

Seeing this, the boy breathed a slight sigh of relief and picked up the caramel macchiato, intending to take a bite.

The girl's gaze subtly shifted to him, her expression revealing neither joy nor anger.

The boy shivered and silently put the things back in their place.

After a long while, Shen Xi finished half of her dessert, lowered her eyes, and spoke softly, "Cheng Fei."

"Huh?" The boy, who was busy with his own things, put down his pen.

"So you can use that method to enhance the fox spirit's senses, right?" The girl stared at him expressionlessly.

915. Shen Xi gets closer to the truth again.

The club room fell silent as the two stared at each other in silence.

Cheng Fei casually shifted his gaze, "Teacher Shen, your legs are beautiful today too. You're not only the cutest in the multiverse, but your legs are also the most beautiful in the multiverse?"

Shen Xi glanced down, nodded slightly, and remained expressionless. "Yes, that's just how it is for me."

The boy hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

"If you like it, answer the questions honestly, and then you can look as much as you want." The girl casually lifted the hem of her school uniform skirt slightly, revealing more of her dazzlingly white skin, and continued to stare at him.

"Teacher Shen, could you please not be so decisive every time things happen like this?" The boy looked at her beautiful yet cold face.

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me quickly, are you using that method to enhance the fox spirit's senses?" The girl's pure, dark eyes remained unblinking.

The boy paused for a second, then spread his hands helplessly, "Teacher Shen, have you been looking at some strange things lately? You're getting worse and worse."

"Then explain why her senses have become stronger." The girl frowned slightly.

"How would I know? Maybe Nana has grown up recently, right?" The boy nodded with certainty.

The girl's eyes flickered. She looked at the boy, took a deep breath, then gritted her teeth and looked away. "Trash, I don't want to use safe words."

"Then no need." The boy nodded again.

"But I want to know the truth." The girl looked at him again, emphasizing her words, a stubborn look appearing on her face.

Looking at that conflicted little face, Cheng Fei couldn't help but sigh, "Shen Xi, I think that's one of the things that makes you so adorable."

"You sweet-talking trash, that's why you won't tell me anything, and you still have the nerve to say you're cute." The girl raised her uniform shoe and kicked him in anger.

"Little cutie, I have my reasons for this too," the boy said with a helpless sigh.

The girl stared at him for a moment, then her face turned cold. She raised her chin and said, "Trash, I'll ask you one more time, is there any connection between the fox spirit's heightened senses and what you've been doing to her lately?"

"No." The boy shook his head without hesitation.

"Call me by my name." The girl's gaze sharpened.

The boy was taken aback. "Teacher Shen, you just said you didn't want to use safe words? Please return the favor and thank you."

“I didn’t want to use it just now, but after thinking about it carefully, I decided against it. There’s no need to be lenient with Cheng Feiyu, who’s a habitual liar.” The girl glared at him, as if she had come to a decision, and became quite blunt. “Hurry up and call my name to answer the question.”

"No comment." The boy zipped up his mouth.

"That's related." The girl chuckled, stroking her chin as she pondered to herself, "So Cheng Feiyu can not only change his own abilities, but also others', which makes sense, but why does it have to be that way? What's the necessity? I can't understand..."

The boy watched her, as if she were pondering some important matter, her small face serious, and he was speechless.

Shen Xi raised her head and gave him a light kick, her expression unchanged. "Trash, we'll have a meeting when we get back today, and I'll barely satisfy your disgusting delusions."

"Teacher Shen, you're not thinking about taking samples for testing or anything like that, are you?" the boy asked suspiciously.

"..." The girl's gaze shifted.

"Teacher Shen? Please answer honestly as a response to my promise to keep the safe word." The boy said seriously.

"No comment." The girl gave a soft hum to the wall.

"As expected, there's no point in doing those things. I still hope that Teacher Shen's purpose in being with me is pure." The boy said sincerely.

“Then the regular meeting we just discussed is canceled,” the girl said immediately.

The boy's expression changed.

The girl noticed this out of the corner of her eye, and a smug smile appeared on her lips. Realizing that the boy was staring at her, she immediately composed herself and became indifferent.

The boy noticed the subtle change in her expression, sighed, looked away, picked up his pen, and said, "Never mind, I'd better get back to work."

After saying that, he began to write furiously, as if he had lost interest in her.

Shen Xi stared at the boy for a few seconds, and seeing that he still ignored her, her face turned annoyed, and she kicked him again, "Trash, you're not allowed to write."

"Teacher Shen, what's wrong with you now? Don't stop me from pursuing a better life." The boy complained in a serious tone.

"Enough nonsense. Cheng Feiyu will be my servant for life." The girl said coldly, pushing the half-eaten dessert in front of him. "I have some questions for you."

"Alright, since you're so cute." Cheng Fei reluctantly picked up the tiramisu and scooped up a large piece of dessert with the spoon that the girl had used many times before, and put it in her mouth.

"What exactly are your conditions for helping others change their abilities?" Shen Xi stared at his actions, her brows furrowed, a hint of disgust on her face.

"Trade secret." The boy took another sip of his caramel macchiato.

"So you used the same method to mess with that guy surnamed Lin before?" The girl spoke very quickly.

Cheng Fei was taken aback, realizing she was referring to Lin Xuanqi's loss of luck. "My dear Teacher Shen, please don't let your imagination run wild."

Shen Xi stared at him for a moment, then took out her phone. "Never mind, I'll check it myself."

"How can we confirm this?" the boy asked, puzzled.

"Ask her if you did the same thing during that time." The girl said seriously, and then opened WeChat.

"Teacher Shen, calm down!" The boy quickly pressed her small hand down. "Given your current relationship, how can you even ask such a question? I'm truly impressed by you."

"Trash, let go!" The girl was unhappy. She tried to break free but couldn't. She glared at him fiercely. "Since this Cheng Feiyu refuses to tell the truth, I'll have to gather the facts myself to deduce the truth!"

"I'm scared, Your Highness. Can't I just tell you there's no one?" the boy said helplessly.

"Call me by my name." The girl's face was icy.

"Shen Xi, I didn't treat her like that, are you satisfied?" the boy lamented.

The aloof girl shifted her gaze, continuing to ponder, "So, strengthening and weakening are accomplished through two different methods..."

Cheng Fei watched her smack her lips and decided to continue eating dessert.

"Trash, is it possible for you to change anyone's abilities in the same way if you want to?" The girl stared at him again.

"Teacher Shen, let me emphasize one point first: even if I could do it, I would never thank any man." The boy raised his hand to interrupt her, his face serious.

The girl paused, narrowed her eyes, as if she had realized something, "So, not using props is a necessary step..."

The boy choked up, "Sweetie, is your reasoning ability somewhat influenced by Uncle Shen's profession?"

The girl turned her suspicious gaze to him again, scanning him up and down with a serious expression.

"What's wrong now?" The boy asked, a hint of nervousness in his voice.

"Garbage, answer me, is it really useless to use your sample for testing?" The girl was skeptical.

"It's impossible for it to work." The boy shook his head.

If abnormalities could be detected by testing, then the system would be useless.

"Call me by my name." The girl raised her chin.

"Shen Xi." The boy seemed unsure how to react.

“Tell me the whole story, stop with the tricks.” The girl glared at him, like a dutiful policewoman interrogating a suspect.

"Testing won't help, Shen Xi." The young man looked at her, thought for a moment, and then added cautiously, "Probably, that's my guess."

"As expected, let's go back and have the regular meeting now." The girl took a deep breath and stood up without hesitation.

"Teacher Shen, please stop!" The boy quickly pressed her down. "Can't our relationship be a little purer? I really don't want you to do that kind of thing with me for any other reason."

"Trash! He always tries to take advantage of me whenever we meet, and now he's using this excuse to morally blackmail me!" The girl was a little annoyed.

"Even if I'm taking advantage of you, it's out of pure affection. So please don't question the pure love between us, okay?" The boy seemed to be earnestly trying to persuade him.

"And you still have the nerve to talk to me about pure love? Shameless aquatic mammal." The girl turned her face away and sneered, gritting her teeth even more, but managed to sit back down and not move.

"Teacher Shen, calm down, let's get back to the main topic." The boy felt sweat on his forehead and used his workbook to fan himself between the two of them.

Shen Xi looked him straight in the eye again and said coldly, "So you're not entirely clear about the truth behind all of this either, are you?"

"Did I express that meaning?" the boy asked, puzzled.

"Stop pretending." The girl kicked him.

The boy pursed his lips and remained silent.
