Actually, it wasn't like she left him nothing, at least she still left him some socks from the sewing box to comfort him.

Xiao Yao was secretly glad in his heart. If Shen Jie hadn't made some noise with the hairpin, he might not have been able to pass his father-in-law's test.

"I will leave no trace of you behind. I will draw a clear line between us. Go out for a walk later," Shen Jie ordered, "and see if there are any other people secretly watching us in the corridor or alley."

"Yes, my dear wife!" Xiao Yao said.

Behind me, I heard the sound of the spittoon lid hitting the spittoon, and along with this sound, the odor in the room was reduced a lot.

"This place is no longer habitable." It was unclear whether Shen Jie was talking to Xiao Yao or to herself.

At least, she still accepted the title of "wife", Xiao Yao thought.

Then, Xiao Yao heard the sound of the elastic band when the pants were pulled up: "Are you ready? Can I turn around now?"

"No," Shen Jie told him, "Just stand there and don't move."

"Okay, okay," Xiao Yao raised his hands in surrender, "I was just thinking that when I go down to investigate, I'll help you take it down."

"You don't need to be so attentive here!" The girl shouted, "Did you just...just...just see me?"

I saw you? What do you mean? Of course I saw you.

Oh, Xiao Yao quickly realized what Shen Jie meant by "see me".

"I saw it, what's the matter?" Xiao Yao answered in a deliberately nonchalant tone.

In fact, he saw nothing. In that fleeting glimpse, he only remembered that Shen Jie's thighs were really white, and he didn't see anything else. However, he deliberately lied to her and said "I saw it."

"You -! Go to hell!" Shen Jie's voice sounded furious.

Xiao Yao thought to himself, if I saw it, I saw it. I already bumped into it last night...

However, he felt that her anger might be real, so he kept his mouth tightly shut.

The air froze for about seven or eight seconds, and then Xiao Yao heard the girl sitting down on the bed: "How's school going?"

"Wait for me." Xiao Yao said and ran back to 2004, bringing a copy of the agreement to 2034.

"Make-up exam? Similar? How many things are you hiding from me?" After reading the copy of the agreement, Shen Jie placed it on the bed.

Ever since Shen Jie left without saying goodbye this morning, Xiao Yao finally got to see her beautiful face again.

Her eyes were a little swollen, and it seemed that what Shen Tianyun said about "crying all the time" was probably true.

The girl was not wearing her nightgown today, but a pair of wide-leg pajamas.

At this moment, Shen Jie was placing a crystal clear bare foot on the bed and casually trimming her own toenails with a pair of nail clippers, making "click" and "click" sounds in the silent air.

Xiao Yao looked a little dazed.

"Tell me?!" Shen Jie shouted impatiently.

Is this the true temper of the women in Shanghai? Xiao Yao wondered.

"I solemnly promise you that I will not hide anything from you for the rest of my life," Xiao Yao said, "The exams are similar, it's like this..."

……

"I wonder why your class teacher is so nosy. I think you are a bad apple." Shen Jie finally finished cutting her toenails. She piled the cut toenails on the copy of the agreement and then started scratching the back of her feet.

"What's wrong with your foot?" Xiao Yao asked her with concern.

"Nothing, I just suddenly felt a little itchy." Shen Jie answered casually.

"Could it be that I have athlete's foot?" Xiao Yao grinned.

"How could it be possible--" Shen Jie raised her head suddenly: "It's possible! It's all your fault that you always make me wear wet socks!"

"? How is that possible? I was just kidding," Xiao Yao hurriedly tried to distance himself from the matter, "Beautiful girls don't get athlete's foot."

"You'd better hope that I'm not! Otherwise you're dead!" Shen Jie continued to scratch the back of her foot: "You're really amazing. A poor student cheated to get first place, and you don't even know what cheating is."

"How can you say it's cheating? No matter how you learn it, if you know it, you know it."

"Getting something for nothing is cheating, so are you sure you can pass the make-up exam? I tell you, Xiao Yao, if you can't even get a high school diploma, I won't let Tian Yun recognize you as my father. It's not shameful enough."

"I'm sure he'll have no problem with the exam. If he's capable of breaking off the symbiosis, I might even have to thank him."

"Tsk, alright, it's good that you know what to do in the exam," Shen Jie muttered, "It's great that you can solve it so easily - but even if you pass this time, your head teacher will not let you off easily in the future, he will definitely make things difficult for you."

"I've thought about this section, too," Xiao Yao told her, "but let's discuss the class change with Director Lin after the make-up exam."

"...If there is nothing else, you can leave." Shen Jie ordered them to leave.

"I want to cut my toenails, too." Xiao Yao didn't move.

Shen Jie raised her hand and threw the nail clippers over. The nail clippers drew a parabola in the low air and Xiao Yao quickly reached out to catch it.

If it were yesterday, she would have cut her own toenails by herself, but as for today... people should be sensible.

"Where are the dishes you used for lunch? I'll wash them." Xiao Yao turned his head and looked at the empty dining table.

"I don't need you. I have a filial daughter." Shen Jie said.

"Is the shredded pork with green peppers that I made delicious?" Xiao Yao asked her.

"There's a burnt smell, much worse than last time." Shen Jie frowned slightly.

Xiao Yao felt relieved: Shen Jie still ate the food he cooked, which was a good sign.

"So...what do you want to eat tonight? I'll cook it for you."

"No thanks," Shen Jie said, "I've already told my daughter that she'll buy the hottest super macarons of 2034 today, so I'll save some for her."

"What are macarons? Is there one for me?"

"Yes and no."

……

He fiddled for a while before saying awkwardly, "Then... I'll go first?"

"Bye." Shen Jie lowered her head.

Xiao Yao hesitated for a few seconds, then suddenly strode forward and reached out to hug his wife.

The girl stretched out her right hand like lightning and pressed it against his chest with astonishing strength and a stern expression.

The boy sighed, picked up the copy of the agreement, and picked up the spittoon the girl had used: "I'll empty it for you."

Having said this, he walked towards Shen Tianyun's closet with the spittoon in his hand.

"Xiao Yao." The girl called him again from behind.

"Ah."

"When you empty the spittoon, be careful to find my father's secret sentry. Also, don't let them find out that you are looking for them." Shen Jie reminded him.

"You said you wanted both," Xiao Yao replied stiffly, "I can take care of it myself."

"Also," Shen Jie thought for a moment and said, "Can you help me find something?"

"what is this?"

"Oh, right," Shen Jie didn't say what she was looking for. She clapped her hands and thought of another thing: "Put the spittoon down first, and when we get over there..."

--split line--

Xiao Yao went back to 2004. Without turning on the lights, he gently poured the clipped nails into the trash can in the dim light, as if he was not throwing away garbage but placing some collection.

These nails are crystal clear and curved like crescent moons, very cute.

Then, he took out the small flashlight that Shen Jie gave him, and holding up the small light, he searched every corner of the room in the darkness.

After repeated checks, he returned to 2034 and reported to Shen Jie: "No camera was found."

"sure?"

"I've searched for it seven or eight times."

"it is good."

After going out to empty the spittoon, he changed his clothes and walked around the alley several times. He basically didn't see any suspicious new faces. Instead, he ate a lot of snacks for cover - thanks to his father-in-law for the advance payment of the operation funds.

However, it was hard to say on this dark and windy night.

From an optimistic point of view, the most dangerous place is the safest place, especially after being swept away by a round.

However, after all, there is no way to be 100% sure that the father-in-law has given up, so we should still be safe.

With a heavy heart, he knocked on the wooden door of a neighbor who was a junior high school student.

"Brother Xiao Yao?" It happened to be the child who came to open the door.

This child is about the same height as Shen Jie. He just started the first grade this year and will be promoted to the second grade in the second half of the year.

When Xiao Yao first came to Shanghai in the first year of high school, he often came to his house to play Super Mario and Contra together, but he rarely came again after he finished the games.

Xiao Yao entered the house and sat on the sofa next to the dining table for twenty minutes. He exchanged pleasantries for twenty minutes, then politely declined the other mother's invitation to "stay for dinner" and walked out with a bag of old clothes in his hand.

mission completed.

He returned home, cursing as he cleaned up the pile of cigarette butts on the floor and threw them into the trash can, then went to the next room with the bag of old clothes.

Shen Tianyun had returned, and the mother and daughter were sitting around the table, sharing... So this was the so-called super macaron? They were talking and laughing while eating, and the scene was very warm and cozy.

"There's really no share for me?" Xiao Yao widened his eyes.

Shen Jie rolled her eyes and wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing.

“Yes, yes, yes.” Shen Tianyun put down the macarons in her hand and lifted up an upside-down plate: “I was late in the queue today and almost didn’t get one. In the end, I bought this one. Mom specially left half of hers for you…”

"Stop talking nonsense, kid, how can you lie to my face without blinking an eye?" Shen Jie scolded, turning to Xiao Yao and said, "Tianyun bought you some extra ones."

"I can show you the receipt!" Shen Tianyun shouted.

"That's the leftovers because I thought they didn't taste good!" Shen Jie said in panic.

Xiao Yao probably understood what he heard, so he sat at the table and clasped his hands together, "Thank you, wife! I'm starting to eat - are you guys just going to have dessert tonight?"

"Yes, there are hamburgers." Shen Tianyun bent down and took out another paper bag from under the table: "Convenient, delicious, and fast."

After the family finished dinner, Xiao Yao picked up the bag of clothes borrowed from the junior high school student and urged Shen Jie to try them on.

"You go out first." Shen Jie ordered.

"I'll turn around and not look at you." Xiao Yao faced the wall.

"Why are you so annoying..." Shen Jie made a "tsk".

"Please don't leave me alone in the cold darkness across the street!"

"...scoundrel." Shen Jie muttered, but still changed into the uniform that Xiao Yao brought back.

"My dad said that in the past, people like me would be shot for hooliganism," said Xiao Yao.

"My dad is so right - okay, turn around." Shen Jie put the emphasis on "my dad".

Xiao Yao turned around and looked up and down at Shen Jie in front of him.

This is the uniform summer uniform for junior high school students in Demon City. It consists of a white short-sleeved top and dark pants. It is of the same color and style regardless of gender. It can be seen everywhere on the streets in summer.

Xiao Yao's DNA moved. Why could she be so cute no matter what she wore?

In order to make the play complete, Xiao Yao even borrowed two red scarves for her. At this moment, the girl was clumsily tying the red scarf on her chest: "How...how did you tie it? I forgot."

(Note: Unlike other regions in China, junior high school students in Shanghai also wear red scarves)

"You're so stupid! Let me do it." Shen Tianyun walked forward and helped Shen Jie tie the red scarf.

"Are they similar?" Shen Jie opened her arms, turned around and asked Shen Tianyun.

"It looks good, really good." Xiao Yao said.

"Who asked you if you are good-looking? Do you look like a junior high school student?" Shen Jie said fiercely.

"It looks exactly like it. The clothes fits me really well," said Xiao Yao.

"It's like she came out of a period drama, absolutely amazing!" Shen Tianyun clapped his hands and said, "Xiao Yao, get me a set too!"

Xiao Yao laughed dryly and perfunctorily answered his daughter, but Shen Jie opened the closet door and looked left and right in the floor-length mirror.

This level of disguise seems far from safe.

Do you want to wrap your chest and dress like a boy?

This hairstyle is considered short for women, but too long for boys.
