Jiang Liyue, on the day she became a shadow queen, was pulled into an infinite-loop novel and turned into the fake heiress who starved to death because she refused to enter the game. Good news: she...
Chapter 12 The Weird Classroom
Perhaps because of the gloomy weather, the visibility in the classroom was very low, and everyone in the class sat upright in their seats.
When they both look in the same direction with a deathly still expression, they look particularly strange.
Despite being stared at by so many dark eyes, Jiang Liyue's hand only paused for a moment before she walked into the classroom normally.
When those gazes fell upon Pei Ji, who followed her into the classroom, they seemed to sense something and slowly withdrew.
Those greedy, malicious, and covetous gazes instantly receded like the tide.
Footsteps sounded behind her, and Jiang Liyue turned around to find that it was the female teacher who had proctored the exam yesterday.
She didn't dare look at Pei Ji, feeling the terrifying pressure emanating from him, and said to Jiang Liyue in as calm a tone as possible, "Jiang classmate, why don't you introduce yourself first?"
The murderous intent emanating from her gradually subsided, and the female teacher breathed a sigh of relief.
Waaah, being a teacher is so hard! Can she quit this job?
Jiang Liyue stood confidently on the podium and introduced herself, "Hello everyone, I am Jiang Liyue, a transfer student who just arrived today. I hope we can get along well and make progress together."
The moment she finished speaking, everyone in the classroom raised their hands and applauded her.
Everyone had a smile on their face, but those smiles were all the same, as if they had been measured with a ruler.
Its eyes were lifeless and devoid of any vitality, unlike any human or any other eerie creature Jiang Liyue had ever seen before.
It didn't even resemble any living creature.
Pei Ji ignored the female teacher on the stage and waited for Jiang Liyue to finish speaking before reaching out and pulling her wrist to sit down in the last two seats of the classroom.
Jiang Liyue moved her wrist, but Pei Ji, though only holding it lightly, couldn't dodge it.
"It's okay, they're different." Pei Ji explained softly beside her, but he didn't elaborate on how they were different.
Even without Pei Ji saying it, Jiang Liyue could sense the uniqueness of the "people" in the classroom.
Even the strange encounters I had last night, like the dorm supervisor, were things I could connect with emotionally.
The NPCs sitting in the classroom now seem more like puppets with pre-programmed routines.
There is no emotion whatsoever, only an instinctive covetousness for flesh and blood.
"By the way, didn't Yueyue just say that she wanted to improve together with them?" Pei Ji asked, having calmed Jiang Liyue down, before bringing up the old issue again.
These were the words she said to him last night.
How could you say that to other people?
Pei Ji's eyes darkened, and his cold, slippery fingers caressed the skin of Jiang Liyue's wrist.
It looked as if some kind of snake was relentlessly coiling around its prey.
"How can they be compared to you? They're just ordinary classmates. I was just being polite. We're the only best friends and will always be together. Of course, we're different."
Jiang Liyue took the initiative to put her small hand into his palm, and slowly intertwined her fingers with his, shaking his hand coquettishly: "Aji, we are the only best friends, no one can compare to us, don't you believe me?"
“Of course I trust Yueyue the most.” Pei Ji’s eyes were fixed intently on her. “So, Yueyue, please don’t lie to me. We promised to be together forever.”
If you're lying to me, I'll grab you, tie you up, and forbid you from leaving again...
[The camera is finally back! I missed my Yueyue so much! The camera was focused on other players just now.]
After all, the fighting and killing next door has already started; such bloody and exciting scenes are unlikely to be captured on camera.
Isn't our Yueyue's relationship exciting enough?
[Don't spread rumors. We're just good friends, nothing romantic.]
[Yueyue is so good at sweet-talking the boss, so sweet and cute, he's so lucky!]
[The boss's warning tone... I'm kind of hoping Yueyue actually gets arrested...]
This is so exciting!
Jiang Liyue sensed the danger in Pei Ji's tone, but she remained calm and coaxed him with a smile, "Of course I wouldn't lie to you."
His tone was so practiced, like a scumbag who'd charmed over a dozen girlfriends.
Jiang Liyue wasn't guilty at all. Anyway, once the mission to find Ren Yuanxing was completed, or once the seven days were up, she could simply exit the instance.
Even a dungeon boss couldn't possibly come out of the game to capture her, right?
When the instance ends and is reopened, his memory will be refreshed along with the instance, and he won't remember her at all.
Jiang Liyue became more and more self-righteous as she thought about it, and when the others in the class weren't paying attention, she kissed him on the cheek: "Don't worry, Aji."
Pei Ji's ears turned red as he stared infatuated at her receding red lips, completely forgetting his earlier warning.
Look how worthless the boss looks!
Why do I always feel like my wife is going to mess things up every month?
At least Jiang Liyue hasn't messed up yet, and has once again managed to appease Pei Ji, who is constantly on the verge of becoming a yandere.
The female teacher had already started the lesson, and Jiang Liyue solemnly declared that she would listen attentively and refused Pei Ji's request to continue kissing her.
Just like yesterday's test, the female teacher's lesson content also fit the characteristics of the supernatural beings.
"If a human were running at three meters per second from a distance of one hundred meters, how fast would the Weird have to go to catch up with him in five minutes?"
Jiang Liyue: "..."
If this had been on the exam yesterday, her score might have been even higher.
At least this is a real calculation problem!
Even though her mind was completely blank, Jiang Liyue sat up straight, looking like a well-behaved and obedient student.
At this moment, the female teacher suddenly looked at her and said, "Jiang, you answer this."
At the same time, everyone else in the classroom turned to look at her again.
Jiang Liyue calmly stood up, grateful that she had indeed studied hard back then, and that such elementary school-level math problems were no challenge for her at all.
When she read out the correct answer, the classroom erupted in applause once again.
Pei Ji squeezed her hand with a proud look: "I knew Yueyue was amazing."
It didn't fall, it didn't fall...
Jiang Liyue's lips twitched. Thinking of the 21 minutes she scored last night, she felt that Pei Ji was mocking her.
But Pei Ji naturally leaned down and kissed her.
He kissed the red lips he had always dreamed of, his eyes flashing red with excitement.
Jiang Liyue was caught off guard by his sudden attack, her eyes widening in surprise.
Pei Ji blinked innocently, "This is a reward from your good friend for Yueyue answering the question correctly. Do you like it?"
Jiang Liyue did not miss his fervent, infatuated gaze and the way his Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed.
Suddenly, I realized that I might have been taught something extraordinary by the supernatural.
But the strange way he stared at her like a puppy was kind of cute.
I have a feeling that my wife, Yueyue, might also have some yandere tendencies.
[Nonsense, if it weren't for a yandere, which player have you ever seen dare to kiss a weirdo first...?]
