The sweet girl seemed to sense her discomfort as well, and gently twisted her body, pressing her soft body even closer to the boy.

The aloof girl with her eyes lowered took a deep breath.

They didn't seem to get along particularly well.

The rest of the people in the club activity room seemed to ignore this scene.

This situation continued until a sudden knocking sounded at the door.

Because Milian was the closest to Ye Shuang, she went to open the door (as a repeat student seeking help from Ye Shuang, a high school student with average grades, Cheng Fei had reason to believe that her chances of survival next summer were slim).

"What brings you here again?" The blonde girl opened the door and immediately put her hands on her hips, adopting an unwelcoming stance.

Outside the door, a gloomy girl wearing black-rimmed glasses, carrying a shoulder bag, half-buried her head with her bangs covering her face, said in a low but defiant voice, "What's it to you?"

"I'm a member of the Corridor Research Department, so of course it's related to me!" The blonde girl puffed out her extremely flat chest, speaking with righteous indignation.

“I’m a member too.” Yin Ranran stared at her and raised her voice slightly.

"You too, uh, how is this possible?!" Miriam's eyes widened, and she looked like a duck being choked, turning around to cast a pleading look, "Junior!"

"Senior, she has indeed joined the club. Let her in." Cheng Fei put his arm around the sweet girl's shoulder to prevent Nagasaki Asuna from falling.

Yin Ranran silently walked around Milian and went inside, brushing past Milian's shoulder and almost causing her to fall.

The gloomy girl looked around, her gaze lingering on the face of the sweet girl over there for a moment, before finally choosing the empty seat closest to the door and sitting down with her head down.

Miriam stared intently at her with a look of intense hostility on her face.

"Hello, hello, your name is Yin Ranran, right? I'm Zhou Han, and this is Ruan Jingyi." The petite girl next to her thought for a moment, then pulled her best friend and greeted them with a smile.

"Hello," the gloomy girl replied stiffly.

“Junior! How can we let someone of unknown origin join the club so easily?” Miriam sat back down, scratching her hair with a sense of humiliation.

“Yeah, honey, why do I have to take the test while she can just come in? Is she your distant cousin?” Lin Xuanqi also looked puzzled.

"I forgot to tell you yesterday, but anyway, from now on, Yin Ranran has officially joined our Corridor Research Department. Everyone, please welcome her." Cheng Fei coughed lightly and raised his voice slightly to lead the applause.

Even Nagasaki Asuna, who seemed to be asleep, clapped her hands softly with her eyes closed, causing the aloof girl not far away to furrow her brows slightly.

Seeing this, Zhou Han and Kato Ai clapped along in a coordinated manner.

Miriam covered her mouth, her eyes brimming with tears.

Amidst the sparse applause, the gloomy girl looked up and then lowered her head again, her whole body stiffening as if she were very uncomfortable.

After the welcoming ceremony, the atmosphere in the room became slightly more relaxed than before.

Zhou Han poked her cheek with her pen, then suddenly became interested, "By the way, Cheng Fei, what's our club's showcase activity for this year's cultural festival?"

The boy hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What festival?"

"The cultural festival is less than a month away," the petite girl said matter-of-factly.

The boy thought for a second, then remembered that there seemed to be such a thing, and turned to ask, "Teacher Shen, what is our club's presentation activity for this year's cultural festival?"

Shen Xi looked up, her small face showing hesitation, "What holiday?"

"The cultural festival is said to be less than a month away." The boy glanced at Zhou Han over there.

"I don't have time to participate in such a meaningless activity," the aloof girl said without hesitation.

"I support it, but Minister, if I remember correctly, every club has to have a showcase event, otherwise the club will be disbanded." The boy thought for a moment.

"Is that so?" The aloof girl frowned.

"I talked about this last year, have you forgotten?" the boy asked cautiously.

The aloof girl turned her face away, her eyes flickered, and then she raised her chin. "Given that we have more important matters to attend to, the task of planning this year's exhibition will be handed over to us."

She looked around and said, "Leave it to Zhou Han, you'll be in charge."

"Me, me?" The petite girl sat up straight, her eyes vacant.

"From now on, you will serve as the deputy secretary of the student association. I look forward to your performance." Shen Xi said expressionlessly.

"Ah, ah?" The petite girl froze on the spot.

"Everyone, please welcome him!" Cheng Fei was the first to applaud.

The club activity has ended.

The Lamborghini drove toward Guang'an Street.

Nagasaki Asuna leaned towards Cheng Fei, who was lying in the passenger seat, and yawned lazily, muttering, "They actually made Zhou Han the deputy secretary. Are they planning to replace me as the secretary someday?"

"Don't think too badly of her, classmate." The boy holding the steering wheel shook his head and sighed.

"She's so mean! She actually called the cat like that yesterday. That's so mean! She doesn't deserve to be called a vixen at all!" the sweet girl complained.

"Does this fox spirit have any rules?" The boy's lips twitched, and he barely managed to hold back from asking.

"Hey classmate, did you get a good night's sleep last night?" he suddenly remembered.

Her listless demeanor in the club activity room made it hard to believe her speech that morning.

"I rested very seriously and tried my best." The sweet girl's eyes became unfocused, like a cat that had done something wrong and was being held up by its owner.

"Tell me honestly what you mean."

"That's right, because she made a video call yesterday, and after hanging up, although she wanted to go to sleep right away, she couldn't help but miss her owner and couldn't fall asleep, so she missed him for a long time." The sweet girl looked innocent and naive, speaking softly as if telling a fairy tale.

The boy remained silent for a long time, and could only let out a sigh.

"Fool."

"Ok?"

I'll deal with you tonight.

"Okay!" The sweet girl's eyes widened and she nodded emphatically.

The atmosphere in the car was quiet for a moment.

"By the way, Cheng Fei." Nagasaki Asuna pursed her lips and curled her hair with her fingertips.

"Huh?" The boy looked at the road.

"As a girlfriend, can the cat also make some demands on Cheng Fei?" The girl's eyes darted around cautiously.

"What do you want? Just tell me," the boy said casually.

"I want Cheng Fei to do something."

"what?"

"How about Cheng Fei goes on a date with Lin tomorrow afternoon?"

"?"

The boy stopped at the traffic light and looked at her with a puzzled expression. "You have research projects too?"

Nagasaki Asuna shook her head and put her hands together. "It's not a subject matter. It's because the cat made a deal with her, so could you please sacrifice yourself, Cheng Fei?"

"What kind of deal?" the boy asked suspiciously.

"Cheng Fei will find out later, can we not tell you now?" The girl looked at him with her head down.

The light turned green, the boy smacked his lips, and continued driving.

“If Cheng Fei is really angry, the cat can take off its clothes and dogeza (bowing on its knees) to apologize.” Nagasaki Asuna kept her hands clasped together and lowered her head even further.

"I give up, a normal date is fine, right?" The boy rubbed his chin, unable to contain his worry.

It was one thing for Shen Xi to order him on a date to test his abilities, but now he's being asked to go on a date by his girlfriend, Nagasaki Asuna.

Why did things turn out this way?

He couldn't understand it.

"Yes, a date like the one we had before will do." Nagasaki Asuna nodded quickly, then put her hand on her collar and fiddled with the buttons, her expression becoming somewhat unnatural. "Um, should the cat do a dogeza right now?"

"That's fine for now, thank you!"

"I understand." He let out a small sigh, sounding somewhat regretful.

In this ambiguous conversation, the white supercar disappeared at the end of the road.

Not long after Cheng Fei returned to his rented apartment, a message popped up in the high-level discussion group of the Corridor Research Department.

"Please both of you log on, thank you."

The text is brief, yet conveys a sense of impatience.

The two logged into the game and traveled to their home planet with the aloof girl with long silver hair.

……

In the dim midnight light, the cold moonlight streamed through holes in the ceiling of the dilapidated, unnamed church, which was covered in black ash, illuminating the lush morning flowers growing in the cracks between the floor tiles.

"Teacher Shen, there's something I'd like to discuss with you seriously, and that's about your recent relationship with Nana. I think you two..."

"Shut up, it's too noisy."

“Cheng Fei, if she doesn’t want to listen, that’s fine with me.”

The silence was broken by the conversation, and the figures of the three appeared at the foot of the broken statue.

Nagasaki Asuna noticed something first, looked down at what was in front of her, and asked in a puzzled voice, "Eh?"

Cheng Fei and Shen Xi also looked down and were both stunned.

A person was kneeling in front of the three.

To be precise, she was a young girl, about the same age as Isabella whom we had met before. Her gray hair was tied into a neat ponytail, and she had a few freckles on her delicate face. Her gaze was pure and firm. She was wearing what should be the rough gray-white work clothes unique to witches (the three of us had seen them in the parish last time), and she also wore a necklace that symbolized her identity.

Upon closer inspection, one can see clearly visible silver lines in her pupils, growing in a spreading pattern.

The girl remained upright with her fingers clasped in front of her, in a posture resembling prayer. She looked up and met the gazes of the three people, her brows slightly furrowed and her eyes filled with confusion.

After a brief but lengthy eye contact, Cheng Fei asked seriously, "Hello, who are you?"

The girl's expression changed, and with agile movements, she leaped backward and landed a few meters away, staring intently at the three people with a solemn expression.

"Cheng Fei, you seem to have scared her?" Nagasaki Asuna tilted her head with her hands behind her back.

"I'm sorry, it was my fault." The boy pursed his lips and lowered his head.

"Who are you? Why are you in the old church?" The silver-haired girl opposite spoke, her sharp gaze sweeping over the necks of the three, noticing that Cheng Fei and Nagasaki Asuna's necks were bare, her expression becoming increasingly tense.

"So this place is called the Old Church?" Cheng Fei looked up and around curiously. "Is there a New Church here too?"

The silver-haired girl slowly retreated with a sense of wariness. "You don't even know where this is, so why did you come here?"

“We are, uh, travelers, yes.” The boy nodded to himself.

The silver-haired girl remained silent.

Nagasaki Asuna, hands behind her back, pondered for a moment, then tilted her head. "Um, were you praying just now? So you recognize this statue?"

"I don't know her." The silver-haired girl shook her head without hesitation.

"Don't be afraid, we won't do anything to you, we're good people?" Nagasaki Asuna blinked, as if sensing something.

The silver-haired girl glanced behind her out of the corner of her eye and continued to back away, seemingly ready to run away at any moment.

"Nana, you seem to have scared her." Cheng Fei covered his mouth with the base of his thumb.

In the tense atmosphere, hurried footsteps could be heard outside the church.

"Eileen!"

Another short, short-haired girl ran in shouting. She was also dressed in witch labor clothes, but she wore a red scarf that fluttered behind her as she ran, covering the neck ring that should have been there.

"Where did these three people come from?!" The girl with the red scarf stopped next to the silver-haired girl who had been praying earlier, her eyes wide.

She looked two or three years younger than the silver-haired girl, and her voice was full of youthful energy.

"I don't know, it just appeared out of nowhere." The silver-haired girl glanced at her companion, grabbed her hand, and shook her head softly.

“Teacher Shen, I have a feeling he’s one of your followers. Why don’t we come clean?” Cheng Fei observed the two of them, tilting his head and lowering his voice.

Shen Xi frowned slightly and nodded gently.

The boy stepped forward, cleared his throat, and said, “Listen carefully. Standing before you now is the first Holy Maiden of Elkonis, the Moon Princess of the Twin Worlds, the most adorable person in the multiverse, and of course, the master of the Sequence 613 Apostle Cluster, the owner of this planet, the new generation Protoss Queen Shen Xi. If you are her followers, bow down immediately!”

He finished speaking in a serious tone, then patted the head of the aloof girl next to him, as if it were some kind of treasure.
