……

The new week begins, and campus life continues for Yinghua students.

early morning.

"Next week is the school trip, I can't wait..."

"Where is your class going this time...?"

Amidst these hushed conversations, students entered the Sakura Garden gates in twos and threes.

Cheng Fei walked in alone with his hands in his pockets, and yawned.

In the morning, the same dream appeared again: a small doll that looked just like Shen Xi was sitting on the wardrobe, unable to move.

Moreover, no one woke him up this time, which caused him to talk to the other person in his dream for a long time (one-sidedly) before he was finally freed.

Could it be a vengeful ghost like those in supernatural novels?

Firstly, this vengeful ghost's appearance is too cute, and secondly, I always feel that it is inextricably linked to a certain Celestial Queen.

The possibility that this is some kind of celestial curse still cannot be ruled out. Although yesterday, Shen Xi, who was annoyed by his repeated questions, scolded him severely and told him to observe for a few days. She even dreamed that they went to the hospital for a check-up together.

"Good morning, honey." A confident and familiar voice entered the boy's ears, pulling him back to reality.

Lin Xuanqi was under the cherry blossom tree as usual. After spotting the boy, she walked up with light steps, her naturally charming face beaming with a smile.

"Xuanqi, good morning." The absent-minded boy nodded without thinking and continued walking forward while still pondering.

The arrogant girl dropped her backpack with a thud, her red-rimmed eyes widening as she stared blankly at his retreating figure, an expression of disbelief on her face.

Then, she ran up to him and suddenly hugged his arm, looking up at him with trembling eyes and a complex expression that was hard to tell whether she was happy or sad. "Husband, you've finally forgiven me?!"

"What's gotten into you all of a sudden? Don't dream so early in the morning." The boy met her gaze for a second, realized what had happened, and frowned.

"You called me the same way you always do!" Lin Xuanqi frowned, her face suddenly turning mournful.

"You're mistaken. Let go, or don't blame me for being impolite." The boy pointed at her.

"Oh." The haughty girl lowered her head and responded reluctantly, standing there with her head down, biting her rosy lips tightly.

"Want to be a sculpture? If you're not coming, I'm leaving." The boy glanced back at her, then walked on as if nothing had happened.

The haughty girl snapped out of her daze, her eyes flickering as she watched his retreating figure. She took a deep breath, composed herself, quickly picked up her bag, and jogged after him.

"Honey, you called me just now anyway, so it seems you don't dislike me, hehe."

"Heh, you're kidding me. I just didn't sleep well."

"Why didn't my husband sleep well? Who did he sleep with last night?"

"Thank you, one person!"

"You didn't sleep well because you were alone? Why didn't you ask me to come keep you company? I'm available 24/7."

"That's enough, shut up."

In this ambiguous conversation, the two of them headed toward the classroom.

990. Shen Xi accompanies Cheng Fei to see a psychiatrist.

At noon, Cheng Fei ate lunch with his group in the cafeteria as usual, with Lin Xuanqi clinging to him and following along.

"Damn it, I could have dodged that attack. I never thought I'd be killed in an instant just because I wasn't paying attention!" Chen Hao's face was filled with regret, as if he were grinding his teeth.

"Can you really dodge it?" Du Xinhua asked, glancing sideways while holding his chopsticks.

"Tch, give me a break. With your reaction speed, even if you're lucky enough to dodge the first hit, you won't be able to dodge the second. You're a noob." Zhou Han curled her lip, making no attempt to hide her disdain.

"Damn it, we all have pretty much the same equipment, so why were you able to beat the BOSS? I don't understand!" Chen Hao clenched his fist.

Zhou Han held up one finger and uttered four words, "Technological gap."

The boy in the middle didn't participate in the conversation and ate his meal quietly.

"Honey, here, have this." Lin Xuanqi stuck to him and put the tiger-skin quail eggs from her plate on his plate. After being glanced at by the boy, she obediently put the food back on his plate.

"Never mind, whatever. I'm tired. I won't waste time in the corridor anymore." Chen Hao tilted his head back and rubbed his face.

"Planning to quit the game?" Du Xinhua raised an eyebrow.

"My original goal was just to leave my name on the kill log, but now that goal is gone too," Chen Hao sighed.

"That's true, after all, there wasn't even a bystander at the time." Du Xinhua nodded.

"Those idiots online only care about the Corridor Research Department. I posted dozens of posts to clarify that the two of us participated in the war, and not a single person replied. It's outrageous!" Chen Hao became indignant again.

Du Xinhua's lips twitched. "It would be a miracle if anyone paid any attention to you like this."

"But it's good, their Corridor Research Department doesn't have a good reputation online right now, so it's not all bad that nobody knows about us." Chen Hao exaggeratedly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let those people on the internet say whatever they want. Anyway, we've achieved our goal, right, right, Cheng Fei?" Zhou Han snorted dismissively, then turned around and smiled.

The boy in front of her nodded.

Lin Xuanqi thought for a moment, then said with some concern, "Honey, there's a lot of talk about you online right now. Should I ask someone to reduce the buzz?"

"No need for thanks," the boy said nonchalantly.

Naturally, the incident that happened at the Authority Tower that day had already spread among the players, making the Corridor Research Department, including him and Nagasaki Asuna, the focus of attention.

Although the entire Corridor Research Department simply chose to ignore it.

"Speaking of which, it seems my brother really went too far and got his account banned. I've been wandering around the area for the past two days and haven't run into him, even though we used to bump into each other all the time. Sigh." Chen Hao sighed again, his expression becoming wistful.

"It's normal to get banned for cheating, why do you seem so sorry?" Du Xinhua hesitated before continuing.

"What are you talking about? That's the big brother who raised us!" the boy with the pompadour said indignantly.

The question of who their elder brother was is destined to become an unknown ripple in the long river of history, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

In the afternoon, the bell rang for the end of the last get out of class.

Cheng Fei was tidying up his things at his seat.

Lin Xuanqi turned her head, propped her chin on her arm, and leaned on the edge of his table, her reddened eyes blinking curiously. "Honey, are you going to the club?"

"It's none of your business, thank you." The boy didn't even look at her.

"My husband keeps saying thank you to me now. Is it because he's afraid that being too cold will hurt my feelings? Hehe." The arrogant girl's eyes flickered, and a devilish smile curved her lips.

The boy frowned in disdain. "He's completely unresponsive."

After speaking, he left under Lin Xuanqi's smug gaze.

He had just stepped out of the classroom when he received a message on WeChat from a friend named Xiao A.

"Come down, let's go get a hotel room today."

The boy stared at the screen in silence for a second, then walked towards the stairwell.

Outside the teaching building, a cool and aloof girl with long, dark hair stood alone in the open space, her delicate face expressionless, exuding the same chilling aura that kept others at bay as always.

The boy, hands in his pockets, casually walked up to her and stood beside her. "Teacher Shen, have you noticed that you've completely fallen from your former pure and elegant self to a completely different person?"

Shen Xi turned her head, her brows furrowed, and her expression became puzzled. "Cheng Feiyu has been driven mad by nightmares. She started talking nonsense as soon as she appeared?"

"You're the school's undisputed cool and beautiful girl, yet you couldn't wait to message someone to go to a hotel room as soon as school was over, even skipping club activities. If word got out, people might think I'm slandering you." The boy shook his head and sighed.

There was a moment of silence between them.

"Sorry, I suddenly think I should call off the date. I'm going home. See you tomorrow." The girl's expression turned cold. After saying that, she took a step forward without hesitation with her slender legs encased in black over-the-knee stockings.

"Teacher Shen, you were wrong." The boy grabbed her small hand and said seriously.

The aloof girl gave him a perfunctory shake, turned her head and squinted at him, biting her lip and taking a deep breath, her spotless black uniform shoes delivering a blow to his head.

"Hopeless." The girl glared at him fiercely. "Make sure you know that today is important, and considering that Cheng Feiyu will definitely be eager to go on a date at the start of the new week anyway, why not take advantage of the situation and try to slander him again?"

"So it was a decision made after careful consideration by Her Majesty the Empress. I was narrow-minded." The young man bowed respectfully.

"Enough with the nonsense, let's get going." The girl grabbed him without any politeness.

"Yes." The boy immediately followed.

Throughout the process, the boy did not let go of the girl's slightly cool and soft hand.

He turned his head to observe that cold yet beautiful little face and found that she was looking straight ahead, as if she didn't realize that the two of them were holding hands.

After thinking for a moment, the boy decided to pretend he didn't know anything and left the campus hand in hand with her.

As the two passed under the cherry blossom tree at the school gate, students who noticed them and their companions whispered among themselves.

A low-slung, sharp-looking white supercar drove away from Yinghua.

"By the way, how was Cheng Feiyu this morning?" Shen Xi sat in the passenger seat of the Lamborghini, staring blankly at the receding street scene outside the window.

"What happened this morning? Your Majesty, rest assured, you are still our top priority." The young man gripped the steering wheel.

"You're asking if Cheng Feiyu still has that dream?" The aloof girl glared at him, her small face showing impatience.

"I did it," the boy nodded honestly.

"What did you dream about?" Shen Xi frowned slightly.

“Same.” The boy looked at the road ahead.

"Looks like my doll?" the aloof girl asked suspiciously.

"It's not just similar, it's exactly the same."

Shen Xi pinched her chin thoughtfully, her small face turning disgusted. "I always feel that it's Cheng Feiyu's excessive infatuation with me that has finally led to a mental illness."

The boy hesitated, then said, "Teacher Shen, please don't be like this. It's true that I like you a lot, but we see each other every day. It's not like I'm sick from missing you, is it?"

"Nobody here will associate with you." The aloof girl retorted softly, as if it were a habit, and continued to stare out the window, frowning in thought, muttering to herself, "I've had the same disgusting dream for three days in a row. Why is that?"

"Teacher Shen, is it really not that you are gradually awakening the power of the Celestial Queen, which makes your mental strength very strong, and that you have a morbid desire to control me, so you invade my dreams?" the boy said seriously.

The girl did not respond immediately; her eyes flickered.

The boy noticed her reaction and hesitated, "Could it really be like that?"

"Stop judging others by your own standards. Even if it were true, I wouldn't do such a pointless thing." The girl made no attempt to hide her disdain.

“I mean passive influence, after all, you yourself don’t even know what power you have.” The boy also rubbed his chin.

"Then the first one to be affected should be that shameless vixen. If I could, I would definitely teach her a lesson in my dreams." The girl emphasized in a cold voice.

“That makes sense.” The boy nodded, then paused. “If that day ever comes, I’d really appreciate it if Teacher Shen would not bully her for my sake. I’ll do anything for her.”

"Sorry, but hearing how concerned you are about her only makes me more ruthless in my reprimand," the girl scoffed.

The boy opened his mouth, but ultimately decided against giving his opinion.

Shen Xi thought for a moment, then raised her chin and said, "In that case, let's go with Cheng Feiyu to see a psychiatrist right now."

"Now? Isn't it too late?" the boy replied instinctively.

"It's barely enough time. At least I can try to register." The girl checked the time on her phone.

Since the two left right after school, it was still quite early.

"How about we go another day? It'll take time to go anyway, so why not have a date?" the boy asked, glancing sideways.

Shen Xi turned her head to stare at him, her stubborn, pink lips tightly closed.

"What's wrong?" The boy asked, puzzled by the gaze, and quickly replied, "I mean, Teacher Shen's business is important."

"How naive does Cheng Feiyu have to be? As long as you're sincere, there's plenty of time for dating. Go see a doctor and take care of your health issues first." The girl's expression was serious, and her tone left no room for argument.

"Okay." The boy simply nodded.

The atmosphere in the car was quiet for a moment.

"Teacher Shen."

"what?"

I want to call you Mom.

"Shut up."
