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

"I think a long skirt would look better," Cheng Fei said, stroking his chin.

"Didn't you say that the shorter the skirt, the higher the number of views?"

"I don't want anyone to see your legs," Cheng Fei said seriously.

"Shut up."

Shen Xi carried her violin to the balcony and draped it around her neck.

Cheng Fei had no choice but to point the camera at her and adjust the living room lighting so that one side of the girl in the picture was bathed in the dim light of dusk, while the other side was illuminated by the light, perfectly presenting her beautiful face.

Since there was no professional equipment, the video was recorded using Shen Xi's mobile phone because of its high resolution.

Midway through the girl's performance, Cheng Fei, who had freed his hands, also took out his phone and pointed it at her.

Although Cheng Fei can't play the violin, it sounded very good. Intuitively, I didn't notice any mistakes, so there was absolutely no need to re-record.

After Shen Xi finished playing the Butterfly Lovers, Cheng Fei applauded for her, saying, "Teacher Shen, you must also know Canon, why don't you record another one?"

"I'm not prepared, and I don't want to record."

"Since we're already here..."

"No."

"I want to hear you play it for me." Cheng Fei looked at her with a serious expression.

Shen Xi paused for a moment, then picked up the zither expressionlessly. "Tsk, I'll play it for you, albeit reluctantly."

Cheng Fei quickly prepared for the recording.

The violin has a completely different timbre from the piano, and the same melody can be played in a different style.

The girl tilted her chin up, her eyes slightly closed, and swayed gently to the melody, her skill level completely different from what she said.

Cheng Fei sat on the sofa, gazing at the girl's slender figure, feeling that she was as gentle and beautiful as music.

After the piece ended, Shen Xi put down her violin, opened her eyes, and stared at Cheng Fei with narrowed eyes. "What have you been filming with your phone from the very beginning?"

"Of course I was filming you." The boy put away his phone without any guilt, then took her phone off the tripod to check the video.

"Although I really don't want you to post this, I have to say it's perfect. Teacher Shen, why are you so beautiful?" Cheng Fei exclaimed in admiration.

The girl tossed her hair, gave a cold snort, and offered no comment.

After reading the second paragraph, Cheng Fei swiped right to see the first paragraph, but ended up swiping a little longer.

Shen Xi narrowed her eyes and quickly snatched the phone away. "Don't look at it."

"Teacher Shen, what was that picture just now?" Cheng Fei felt that the fleeting photo looked like it had been taken without his knowledge.

"It's none of your business."

"These aren't private photos, are they? Let me see what they're about."

"I have no obligation to show it to you."

"Could they be taking pictures of me without my consent?"

"Forget about your wishful thinking." The girl said expressionlessly, hiding her phone behind her back.

"Sigh, if you don't want to give it to me, then don't. You're being stingy." Cheng Fei hesitated for a moment but still didn't try to take it by force.

"I can't imagine what would happen if I gave the key to someone like you." The girl put away her phone, her expression returning to its coldness.

"Not at all, I didn't do anything, did I, Teacher Shen?" Cheng Fei shook his head.

"I'm not interested in your excuses. You can leave now." The girl packed up her violin and tripod.

Cheng Fei glanced at the sky. "It's lunchtime, Teacher Shen. Let's go eat together. It's on me."

"No need," the girl said coldly, taking her things back to her room.

"So, you've completely ascended to mechanical form and no longer need to eat?" Cheng Fei followed her.

"I mean, I don't need you to pay." The girl turned around and glared at Cheng Fei with a cold face, her expression of disgust like that of someone being followed by a rat.

The boy opened his mouth, "Teacher Shen, how come your arrogance has reached this level?"

"Shut up."

"Teacher Shen, your cuteness level has threatened cosmic peace."

"Shut up."

"If you marry me, Ms. Shen, I will cherish you for the rest of my life."

"It's definitely more peaceful to eat alone."

"Teacher Shen, I was wrong."

"I told you to shut up."

Cheng Fei zipped up his mouth.

……

91. The Second Vision

Young boys and girls strolled along the street.

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

"That dim sum restaurant."

"That dim sum restaurant."

The two spoke in unison.

Shen Xi frowned as she looked at him.

"Teacher Shen, although I know that the owner of that restaurant treats you like my girlfriend and you are very satisfied, can we change things up once in a while?"

"Suddenly I'm not hungry anymore, I'll just go back." The girl turned and left.

Cheng Fei grabbed her hand, "Teacher Shen, please, forget I said anything."

Shen Xi glanced at Cheng Fei's hand that was gripping her wrist, her eyes turning sharp.

Perhaps because of the hand warmer, the girl's hands didn't feel very cold to the touch.

Cheng Fei released her without making a sound, as if surrendering.

Shen Xi looked up and glanced around indifferently. "Then let's eat at that Northeastern restaurant."

"Okay." Cheng Fei breathed a small sigh of relief.

The two entered the restaurant and found a seat by the window.

Shen Xi ordered sweet and sour pork and shrimp dumplings, while Cheng Fei ordered stir-fried eggplant, potatoes, and green peppers and pork and chive dumplings. The waiter said that the restaurant's portions were very large, so the two of them didn't dare to order too much.

"Teacher Shen, you seem to really like sweets." Cheng Fei watched as the girl picked up a large piece of sweet and sour pork and took a small bite.

"Is there a problem?" The girl raised her eyes.

"Just asking." Cheng Fei also picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and took a big bite, feeling the crispy crust and the sweet and sour meat flavor released on his taste buds. He then ate a dumpling.

For some reason, even though he had never been to Northeast China, he inexplicably felt that the taste was very authentic.

"Teacher Shen, let me tell you something you'll definitely be interested in," Cheng Fei said while eating.

"What?" The girl raised her head expressionlessly.

“Last night, Lin Xuanqi and I went to the fifth floor.” Cheng Fei picked up a piece of eggplant from the stir-fried eggplant, potatoes, and green peppers and ate it, realizing that this dish should be served with rice.

Shen Xi slammed down her chopsticks and squinted her eyes.

"Don't rush, let me finish." Cheng Fei quickly put a piece of green pepper from the "Three Treasures of the Earth" dish into her bowl.

The girl glanced at it and said coldly, "I don't like green peppers."

Cheng Fei then placed a green pepper into his own bowl right under her nose. "Here's what happened. We encountered something strange in the foundry on the fifth floor."

“Go on.”

"You would never guess that this strange person doesn't seem like a player."

"Explain yourself clearly." The girl's brows furrowed.

"A little girl in a black sailor uniform, with long white hair," Cheng Fei gestured. "She was carrying a black umbrella, very powerful. She attacked as soon as we met. I was about to win, and then she suddenly opened the umbrella. Guess what?"

Shen Xi remained expressionless and did not respond to his words.

The boy smacked his lips. "She opened the umbrella, and then vanished with a bang."

The girl stroked her chin thoughtfully for a moment, "Did she say anything?"

"He didn't speak at all, he was completely mute, which is why people say he doesn't seem like a player."

"Is the umbrella some kind of teleportation device?"

"Anyway, I've never seen it before." Cheng Fei shrugged and mixed the stir-fried potatoes, eggplant, and green peppers with dumplings to eat.

A passing waiter glanced at his behavior and quickly walked away.

“I’ll go down with you to find her.” Shen Xi said solemnly.

"That's what I thought too." Cheng Fei nodded. "By the way, you've been AFK the whole time, haven't you?"

"Mm." The girl nodded.

"How many days has it been?"

"Today marks exactly one week. I'll organize the video footage first, and we'll take action tomorrow."

"I have no objection," Cheng Fei shrugged.

After they finished eating, the two left the restaurant. Cheng Fei escorted Shen Xi downstairs before returning to his rented apartment.

The boy continued his studies and exercise.

Perhaps due to lack of sleep last night, drowsiness quickly overwhelmed him, and he let out a deep yawn.

"Go to sleep."

Cheng Fei took a quick shower, went to bed much earlier than usual, and turned off the lights to sleep.

……

Cheng Fei was sleeping soundly.

In his dream, the girl in the black sailor uniform with the black umbrella reappeared, wielding her black umbrella and fighting him. The two fought fiercely, neither gaining the upper hand.

Cheng Fei was awakened by his cell phone ringing.

It was already late at night, and the night outside the window was as still as water.

The boy's first reaction was that Lin Xuanqi had gone crazy again, because he had Do Not Disturb enabled, and regular phone calls couldn't get through.

He struggled to open his eyelids, which felt like they were glued together, and was momentarily stunned when he saw the caller ID.

"Teacher Shen, you can talk to me tomorrow. There's no need to bother me in the middle of the night." Cheng Fei put the phone to his ear.

"Could you... come over now?" The girl's voice trembled slightly for some reason.

"what happened?"

"Something happened."

"Where are you?"

"At home."

"Are you feeling unwell?"

"No."

"How about tomorrow?"

"I...I want you to come here now," the girl said softly, as if she were afraid of something.

Cheng Fei remained silent for a moment.
