"Xiao Yao," Shen Jie lowered her head and pondered for a while, as if she had made a great decision, and raised her head: "If we can get out of here alive, I will talk to my dad and ask him to transfer you to a better high school, right?"

"Ah?" Xiao Yao said, "Can the school chosen by the high school entrance examination be transferred at will?"

"It's more troublesome to work in the system," Shen Jie said seriously. "I was just thinking, I'll ask my dad to transfer you to a private international high school, and I'll find someone to help you with your English during the holidays. Because your grades in the first year of high school were so bad, you can only go to a community college in the United States for the first two years of college, and then transfer to a prestigious university in your junior year. After graduation, you can come to the company to gain some grassroots experience, and then our family will sponsor you to study for an MBA at a world-renowned business school, and you can help me when you come back..."

"No, wait, how do you know that my grades in high school are very good... Business school? MBA? Don't make decisions on your own!" This was arranged inexplicably, and this was never in Xiao Yao's plan: "Did I tell you that my dream is to go to a theatre..."

"But, if you want to be the son-in-law of the Shen family, you will have to help take over the business in the future, right?" Shen Jie's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally she simply buried her head in her arms.

???

It took Xiao Yao several seconds to react to the girl's understated tone: "You mean, you changed your mind and agree to have sex with me--"

"What are you laughing at? I didn't agree to anything, and I didn't change anything!" Shen Jie raised her head and said hurriedly, "Just like what the white knight said, if you want to be king, you can only move one square at a time and you have civil officials and military generals to protect you. You must first become a knight who has made military achievements to prove that you are qualified, right?"

Xiao Yao felt that his symptoms of hypoglycemia had eased, so he held the chocolate wrapper and handed it to Shen Jie's mouth.

Shen Jie did not accept his offer, but took it from his hand, drank a few sips, and gave it back to him: "What future do you have if you live in this kind of school and work under this kind of teacher?"

Although Xiao Yao was very happy at the moment, he was still not happy after hearing this: "What do you mean by this kind of school? Our school is pretty good, okay? It's a key school in the district anyway."

"Not bad, a bunch of people in your class bully you alone?"

Shen Jie's words left Xiao Yao with no way to refute: "What kind of teacher is this? Teacher Yao is very good to me..."

"I said he was a good man," Shen Jie interrupted him, "but - I just came to my senses now."

So you were so upset just now because of this? Xiao Yao laughed, then changed his mind and decided to have a positive conversation: "He is indeed a good person. At least so far, has Teacher Yao done anything bad? Didn't he also reject Zhou Qi? If thinking about it is a crime, I would have been arrested long ago - many people would have been arrested long ago."

"Did I let it slip?" Shen Jie smiled with a hint of mischief: "You and him are kindred spirits, and master and disciple are like birds of a feather! How could I ever fall for someone like you in the future? No, I'll go back and do a paternity test with Tianyun, but it might just be a scam."

Xiao Yao told himself that Shen Jie was joking, but he was still very unhappy.

The flesh on his cheeks twitched twice, but he didn't say anything.

Shen Jie folded up the chocolate wrapper after drinking it, and put it back into her pocket when she didn't see the trash can. "That Zhou Qi is so pitiful. Could such a terrible thing happen in a bad school? I never knew such a thing could happen before."

Hearing the sense of superiority she unconsciously revealed when she said "bad school", Xiao Yao got furious: "We are all bad schools, only your No. 7 Middle School is a good school!"

"I'm talking about Zhou Qi's junior high school - you, you are mean to me?" Shen Jie was stunned.

Xiao Yao's face darkened, and he stood up with his hands on the ground: "Zhou Qi is pitiful, the enemy who bullies your future son-in-law of the Shen family is the most pitiful."

"Oh, okay," Shen Jie also stood up, straightened her skirt, and chased after Xiao Yao, tiptoeing and gently stroking his head: "My son-in-law is also pitiful, he is also a victim."

Since Shen Jie was willing to coax him and informally acknowledged the title of "son-in-law", Xiao Yao was happy to go downhill:

"The most despicable one is Wang Ming. When I get out, I will definitely find a way to teach him a lesson."

"When the time comes, I'll ask Johns to find someone to beat him up." Shen Jie responded half-truthfully.

"Johns?"

"My father's housekeeper."

"Tsk, let's do it."

As they were talking, a large group of Sekers came towards them in orderly steps.

Xiao Yao's first reaction was to turn around and change the way, but Shen Jie grabbed him, and the two of them walked past the Sekels as if nothing had happened.

"Huh..." After the Sekels left, Xiao Yao secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"You can't keep your cool at all." Shen Jie said angrily.

"You don't seem to be qualified to say such things," Xiao Yao said unconvincedly, "But fortunately, the equipment given by the White Knight is indeed useful."

Shen Jie wanted to let go of her hand, but Xiao Yao held it back. She glared at him, but Xiao Yao explained that this was to blend in with the environment.

Environment, yes.

The corridors were filled with male and female students walking hand in hand. Of course, there were also people walking hurriedly with their heads down, holding books.

The sound of reading came from the classroom I passed by, and the noise of people playing ball came from the playground downstairs.

The sun was high in the sky, looking very small, but it cast a golden warmth on the outer half of the corridor, making Xiao Yao feel very comfortable.

This warm winter sun even made him forget that it was summer in the real world.

If it weren't for the Sekers who walked by from time to time, Xiao Yao would even feel that this place was no different from the real campus.

And he was holding Shen Jie's hand and strolling in the afternoon.

This feeling of "going on an outing with a beautiful girl" reminded him of his first date with Shen Jie.

"We did the same thing in the forest park that day, just walking and walking," said Xiao Yao.

"Yes." Shen Jie held the map in one hand, looked at the map, and then looked at the road.

"In fact, I was really happy that day, but I made you a drowned chicken in the end." Xiao Yao apologized, "Thinking about it later, I think we were very happy together, but maybe it was just one-sided."

Shen Jie snorted twice to express her disapproval: "That's not true. Actually, I...had a lot of fun that day as well."

"really?"

"Well," Shen Jie looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the corridor: "Actually, I never... disliked or hated you."

"……Thanks?"

"Okay," Shen Jie pulled her hand out, patted Xiao Yao's hand, and then turned a page of the map with both hands: "When there is a chance in the future, take me to visit your school during the day."

"Monkey, Danglan Monkey." Xiao Yao said happily: "I also want to visit your school."

"Sorry, it may be a little difficult." Shen Jie poured a basin of cold water on her.

"...Hey, what's going on up front?"

"The light in front seems...broken?"

It was broad daylight, but the corridor ahead was as dark as a bottomless...black hole?

"Don't stay in the shadows." They both remembered the White Knight's warning.

Shen Jie had no choice but to replan the route and take a detour.

There were other shaded areas on the road, which were not marked on the map, causing great trouble for the two.

"I, I, I, I want to go to the bathroom," Xiao Yao suggested, "Big one."

"Yes, it's right in front." Shen Jie looked at the signs for men's and women's restrooms at the corner of the corridor.

……

"Why did you follow me in? Get out?" Shen Jie pushed Xiao Yao out of the ladies' room.

"No," Xiao Yao shook his head, looking serious: "In this place, we'd better not separate the two rooms."

Shen Jie tilted her head and thought about it, then approved of Xiao Yao's caution: "As long as you don't say that we can't divide it into two compartments next time."

Xiao Yao turned on the faucet and tilted his head 180 degrees to drink water.

"Oh, don't drink it, it's dirty," Shen Jie went up to stop him, "You'll have diarrhea if you drink raw water, and the school doesn't have direct drinking water taps like at home."

Xiao Yao thought, there is no one at home: "Miss, why don't you go out and stop Seker and ask her where the school canteen is?"

Shen Jie licked her cracked lips, thought for a moment, turned on another faucet, and continued to drink in small sips with both hands.

Then she started washing her face with water.

Xiao Yao walked into the nearest toilet cubicle and left the door ajar to make sure he could see Shen Jie, sitting on the toilet.

The toilets in St. Francis Xavier's School in reality are all squat toilets that are connected underneath. The facilities in this world are much more advanced.

Xiao Yao made some noises in the cubicle and then let out a long sigh.

"Are you disgusting?" Shen Jie walked into the cubicle next to Xiao Yao and locked it with a "click".

"Is this toilet seat clean? Xiao Yao, do you have any paper? Give me some." The girl's voice came from next door.

"I don't have any paper!" Xiao Yao answered without thinking, and then muttered, "What a hypocrite."

"My tissues have all been soaked in the water dungeon..." Shen Jie said embarrassedly.

Wait? No paper?

Xiao Yao suddenly realized that this might be a bit embarrassing.

Hearing the "sizzling" sound of water coming from the cubicle, Xiao Yao felt even more embarrassed.

It's not just the sound of water falling to the bottom of the toilet, but also the sound of... pressurized fluid spraying out under huge pressure.

Xiao Yao was very sure that there would be no such sound when he urinated.

The boy laughed secretly.

"By the way, shouldn't we be a little more careful about that strange knight?" Xiao Yao said.

"Why?" The girl next door said, "If it weren't for them, we would have become two vegetables now."

"I know," Xiao Yao thought about how to explain to Shen Jie, "but this person's origins are unknown, and it's hard to say whether he is a human being. Although he has no ill intentions at the moment, he is pretending to be mysterious..."

"You're just jealous, right?" Shen Jie blurted out.

"What?!"

"Nothing." Shen Jie muttered softly, "The little man's narrow-mindedness."

"I was thinking," Xiao Yao said, "After rescuing Yu Luying, I will find a way to send you two out first, and I will go to the rooftop to find the White Knight."

"Now that I'm here, I won't leave you alone." Shen Jie said in a gentle but irrefutable voice.

"I know you are brave," Xiao Yao rubbed his face, "please also consider Yu Luying's safety."

"..." Shen Jie didn't say anything else.

A few minutes later, at the toilet door, Xiao Yao pulled his pants up again.

"Why not just wash it with water? You tore off half of the map. How am I going to get back to the rooftop later?"

Shen Jie was shaking the remaining half of the map in her hand: "I tore off the parts that I won't use."

"You know you can't use it?"

"You're mean to me again?"

"I'm fierce, that's all. Uh ah, it's no use beating me!"

By the time the two arrived at their destination, the sun had already set.

Now Shen Jie was really a little hungry.

"Parent-child education center... should this be it?" The two put their heads together and looked at the remaining half of the map.

“I remember Yu Luying said she wanted to learn how to be a parent,” Xiao Yao recalled, “It must have been this classroom.”

"But no matter how I look at it, this is just an old Shikumen house," Shen Jie pointed out.

"In fact," Xiao Yao told her, "this is Yu Luying's home."

In order to cope with the possible battle, Shen Jie moved her body again and even tried to shoot a small fireball, but Xiao Yao still didn't know how to summon Don Quixote.

"There's nothing we can do," Xiao Yao sighed, "Should we work out some combat tactics and a retreat plan?"

"We don't know what's inside, how can we make a plan?" Shen Jie said as she pushed the door open: "We'll just have to act according to circumstances."

"Wait," Xiao Yao grabbed her arm and said, "Don't start a monster again without my consent."

"Start the monster?" Shen Jie didn't understand the online game terminology.

"Just don't attack proactively." Xiao Yao explained.

"I understand, Your Majesty."

Xiao Yao took a deep breath and followed Shen Jie into the wooden door.

If only I could save the file, he thought.

--split line--

Yu Luying's home is a typical old Shikumen house. Four or five families live inside the narrow front entrance, sharing a "soap room" (kitchen) and washroom.

Although it is called a washroom, you cannot use the toilet or take a bath. Apart from wiping your body with a towel dipped in hot water, you can only use the plastic bathtub.
