Chapter 44: The Barrier Between Reality and Illusion



"Yes!" Duan Zhenye placed his right hand on his left chest and bowed deeply to Chu Shangli: "Thank you so much, classmate. I will never forget your kindness."

"It's okay, it's what I should do."

"Classmate, you are such a nice person. If the world were full of kind people like you, what a harmonious place it would be!"

After Duan Zhenye left, Chu Shangli checked the terminal, but was surprised to find that Qiu Feishuang had originally given a good review for delivering the order on time, but had added the [send on time] command. A few seconds before he transferred the order to himself, the selected time and review were automatically sent.

"This is--?"

"Oh, kind-hearted Miss Chu Shangli." Qiu Feishuang smiled and said, "Is it really good to be overly compassionate? Often, what you see with your own eyes isn't reality. Moreover, when you don't know anything, it's not easy to make subjective judgments about right and wrong... Facts have proven that being pretty really does allow you to do whatever you want. If I were as pretty as you or your sister, you wouldn't necessarily have sided with Duan Zhenye with your tears in your eyes just now, right?"

"This has nothing to do with appearance." Chu Shangli responded simply: "I just do what I think is right. Even if there are some deviations, as long as the result is good, everything is fine."

"What you think is right?" Qiu Feishuang raised the corner of her lips wickedly. "Chu Shangli, has anyone ever told you that you are really narcissistic and self-centered?"

"Shut your mouth." Chu Moyin spoke suddenly, and murderous intent appeared in his black eyes: "Who are you? How dare you talk to my sister like that? If you don't apologize, I don't mind spending a pleasant day with you in the school hospital. Let me tell you in advance, you have no sympathy, and I have even less. Moreover, I like vicious, cunning and cold-blooded people the most. First of all, these guys are very similar to me, and since we are similar people, we also have similar thoughts, so it is relatively easy to take action; secondly, when dealing with people who are as bad as me or even worse than me, I don't have to feel any burden in my heart——"

"Oh, oh." Qiu Feishuang nodded with interest. "I see, I see. Although I've noticed that you two sisters have very different personalities before, it's really surprising that they're so different."

She paused briefly, then rested her head on her hands with her fingers crossed. "Yes, that's right. I do smell a similar scent on you, Senior Sister Chu Moyin, a rotten smell. But I also smell a similar scent on Chu Shangli. Why is there such a big difference?"

"If you walk into an abalone shop for a long time, you won't smell the stench anymore. You've already become one with it. If your soul is rotting, then everything you smell will smell like rot. Isn't that normal?"

"Really? I think if someone's been immersed in rottenness for too long, they'll become more sensitive to sweet scents. Of course, it's also possible that although we're similar, our natures are slightly different—you just mentioned that you wouldn't feel any psychological burden if you hurt someone worse than yourself, right? But I prefer the gentleness, kindness, and pure white paper without a trace of malice. Precisely because it's pure water, precisely because it's white paper, it can be stained with all sorts of colors and painted with all sorts of patterns."

Qiu Feishuang slid down along the outline of her nose to her throat, then raised her head to look at the ceiling.

"Okay, Shuangshuang, don't let yourself get so carried away by the strange way you talk because you can't tell the difference between reality and fiction because you've been watching too many comics and anime!" Bai Xiaoqian pouted, "We're here to learn, not to hone our acting skills with impromptu performances! Speaking of which, you don't have to cooperate with her so seriously!"

"Ah, I see." Chu Moyin's expression changed in an instant, and he put on that expressionless pure white mask that seemed to be a luminous body that could gather all the light. The emotion in his voice also disappeared completely: "I thought Qiu Feishuang's future wish was to join the performance club."

"Yes, I'll think about it." Qiu Feishuang's emotional transitions weren't as smooth as Chu Moyin's, and she even hesitated for a few seconds. However, she finally put on a gentle smile that was almost kind and friendly. "If I really want to join the acting club in the future, I will definitely ask you for advice. After all, your acting skills are really amazing. You can enter and exit the emotions in a second. Many professional actors can't do that."

“Life is the best teacher.”

Chu Moyin said this with a serious face. Although it was not very funny, it caused Qiu Feishuang to burst into laughter. She laughed so hard that she fell backwards and put her hands on her stomach.

"Great! I finally learned this sentence."

Her laughter attracted a large flock of crows flying over her head...

"So - can we start?" Bai Xiaoqian took out the stylus and placed it on the screen.

"Let's get started." Chu Shangli nodded: "I've been ready for a long time."

"Don't ignore me?!"

"Then let's start with the basics." Bai Xiaoqian opened the physics textbook.

Chu Shangli was actually still a little concerned about the seemingly meaningful conversation between Chu Moyin and Qiu Feishuang just now, and he kept it in mind silently.

However, at the moment she is more interested in Bai Xiaoqian's true strength, and her enthusiasm for learning and the existence of Bai Xiaoqian itself will make the sudden improvement in her subsequent test scores seem more natural.
