Jealousy (20)
[Ding, the jealousy value has risen to 25%, please be informed. ]
In the quiet bedroom, the system broadcast sound in my head is particularly ear-piercing.
Song Shu was still chewing ice cubes when he suddenly felt a sour taste in his teeth. "555, what's going on with this jealousy value?"
555: [Isn’t it a bit too late to ask now? 】
Song Shu blinked: "It's only a quarter, it's not too late."
[The jealousy value is the second indicator of your successful completion of the mission and leaving the world. When the jealousy value is 100%, and you have completed the main storyline, you can leave here.]
The ice cube melted in his mouth and flowed into his throat. Song Shu suddenly felt that everything was boring.
555 glanced at the night outside the window, [It's time, right? ]
Song Shu complained: "If you had told me earlier that the villains would be forced to do this kind of thing, I would have committed suicide as soon as I came through."
You may say this again in the future. 555 had no way to refute this point and just shut up.
Song Shu looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and after a while, he felt that his body was no longer so hot, so he thought about getting rid of Shui Lan and got up to take a shower. But Shui Lan didn't know what she was thinking, and Song Shu called out several times but there was no response.
With the last sound, Shui Lan seemed to wake up from a dream and looked even more distraught than Qing Xiao.
Song Shu was very surprised.
What happened to these two brothers? He didn't stop their escape plan.
No, could it be that Bo Wen knew about it? That's why he looked so sad.
Song Shu felt that he still needed to ask indirectly, what would happen to Alice if the plan failed?
He probed: "What's wrong with you?"
Shui Lian looked at him inexplicably, shook her head and nodded, and finally just smiled reluctantly: "Father, it's nothing."
Seeing Shui Lian's restless and dodging eyes, it seemed that she was thinking about him. Song Shu thought back to what he had done, and found that he had not particularly affected Shui Lian's plan, so his heart calmed down again.
He nodded, intending to remind Shui Lan that she could leave, but when he walked to the bathroom door, Shui Lan followed him step by step.
Song Shu: “…?”
The bathroom is attached to the bedroom, and the hot water is prepared in advance by the servants and then heated by magic.
Song Shu turned around, and his shadow almost covered Shui Lan's body.
He is taller than Shui Lan. Although he doesn't exercise much, he has a good frame. Shui Lan looks a little petite in front of him.
Song Shu was puzzled: "What else?"
Shui Lan lowered her head, as if she was still trembling slightly?
Song Shu was not a particularly sensitive person, but at this moment he could sense Shui Lian's mood a little bit, just like the fruit that rotted silently in the summer, emitting an unpleasant rotten smell that no one cared about.
The water seems to be rotting.
This thought was strange, but Song Shu did sense it. At the same time, Song Shu was really confused. She was about to leave him and start a new life, so why did he still look so miserable?
Shui Lian still had her head down, her back and fingertips slightly curled up, contracted, and trembled.
He asked Song Shu: "Father, do you need a bath?"
The tone of prayer seems to be seeking salvation.
Originally, Song Shu didn't know what Shui Lan was thinking, but Shui Lan took off her clothes while asking, so Song Shu had to know.
Shui Lian's movements were very immature. She had never experienced normal love affairs, and she didn't know how to take off her clothes. Especially her fingers were still trembling, making her look like a little white flower that was about to fall in a storm, which was very pitiful.
"What on earth are you doing?"
Song Shu was a little confused. He had just experienced the chaos in the study, so he was still a little scared as he grabbed Shui Lan's hand to take off her clothes, fearing that if he was a step slower, Shui Lan would take off all her clothes herself.
"I want to take a shower, but I don't need you to take off your clothes."
Song Shu felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said, but after he finished speaking, the smell of decay on Shui Lan's body became stronger, and she trembled even more violently.
“…”
Is he that scary?
Song Shu was puzzled. He rubbed his brows and said, "Go back. You are not needed here. I can handle it myself."
Shui Lan's tears came inexplicably, and he just stood there, crying motionlessly. Song Shu began to doubt whether he really had a memory disorder and had done something outrageous to Shui Lan.
The otaku didn't know how to comfort people, and the other person wasn't the Alice the otaku liked. So the otaku stood there in a daze, and only managed to squeeze out a dry sentence: "Don't cry."
Then wait for Shui Lian to wipe her tears, tidy up her clothes and leave.
While taking a shower, Song Shu couldn't help but wonder: "No, why is he crying?"
555 Repeat: [Why is he crying?]
Song Shu was really confused and puzzled: "Yeah, why is he crying?"
555: [.]
【You will know later.】
Qi Kexiu, that damn riddle, he didn't want to know it anymore.
Song Shu said he didn't want to do it, and the next day he took a carriage to the college and found that the person accompanying him had changed from Shui Lan to Bo Wen's spy.
At first, Song Shu thought it was Bo Wen's conspiracy, and asked angrily, "Where is Shui Lian?"
The servant replied in a serious tone, "Shui Lan has asked for leave due to illness."
Song Shu felt relieved when he heard it.
In the original game plot, Shui Lan pretended to be sick for several days and then started a rebellion with many adopted sons.
The plot was still on track, and Song Shu couldn't help but feel happy. His tone of voice in class became a little softer, and the students in the class were visibly enthusiastic.
Song Shu couldn't stand the unrestrained and fiery gazes of some students.
Song Shu said proudly: "I taught them well, that's why they like me so much."
555: [……]
【Uh-huh. 】
…
After a week of classes, Song Shu had a basic understanding of the three princes' abilities. Under the pretext of after-school tutoring, he kept Ellis after school.
Although Song Shu's classes in the college were only a fraction of those of other teachers, he still had a luxurious independent office given his status.
There is a bed, a table, a bathroom, and magic lights. It is both a small lounge and a... a small study.
Anyway, when Song Shu saw this office, he had some bad thoughts in his mind. Because he was careless when drawing, he could not help but start to draw when he saw the key words: after school, office, teacher.
——I want to draw Alice alive.
However, after Alice came, Song Shu no longer dared to be so presumptuous and perverted, and his eyes were almost always fixed on Alice's homework.
"I've seen your homework. Your drawings are much prettier, but your control over your magic power is still not that proficient. You need to continue practicing."
Song Shu had been tossed around these past two days, and there was a little more fatigue and dark under his eyes. But his skin was really good, even if it was haggard, it was still beautiful and fragile.
In order to meet Ellis, he naturally dressed up carefully, wearing a gentleman's vest and black trousers. Although he didn't spray magic perfume, he did have a good hairstyle.
The lines for the questions that Alice was going to ask were also the ones he had thought about thousands of times and practiced over and over again in his mind.
Song Shu finished speaking and handed over a piece of paper, "Can you draw one for me as usual?"
The infusion of magic power in spells requires very high brushstrokes. Alice's painting looks fine, but there is indeed a deviation in the infusion of magic power. Therefore, Song Shu wants to find the problem from Alice's live painting.
Ellis speaks very little. In normal communication, Song Shu does most of the talking, while Ellis just plays the role of a listener.
Ellis could choose to refuse Song Shu's request, but he thought of the young man he saw in the palace on the day off, so he just silently took the paper handed to him by Song Shu.
Then he saw Song Shu's eyes shining visibly.
…He just took a piece of paper.
Ellis pursed his lips and began to sketch according to the drawings in his memory. Song Shu immediately followed with full concentration.
Drawing the talisman requires extremely high concentration, and Song Shu needs to observe the direction of Ellis's handwriting and cannot afford to be distracted.
Gradually, the two of them got closer and closer, just like a prime time idol TV drama. When Ellis put down the feather pen, he could see Song Shu's eyes in the blink of an eye.
Song Shu was unaware of the distance, his attention was focused on the talisman on the table. Like a detective who had found important evidence, he picked up a feather pen and sketched lightly on the paper.
"Here, your strokes are too heavy, you need to lighten them a bit."
Their breaths were entangled together. The young man's fingers brushed across his arm, just a slight touch, like the wind blowing across the grass, a very ordinary contact, but Ellis paused inexplicably.
He smelled Song Shu's scent.
It doesn't smell like the magic perfume I usually spray, but a light scent of grass and trees.
Ellis stepped back a little, and Song Shu finally noticed the distance between them. His hand holding the quill paused, and his body became noticeably stiff. Then, Song Shu also stepped back a little, and Ellis could see his red earlobes by tilting his head.
There was no verbal communication, and even the physical contact was just the unexpected touching of hands.
But the atmosphere was just weird.
Like a spell, Ellis recalled the words Anthony said to him.
——"...Ellis, the teacher seems to like you more."
In front of me was Song Shu's cold pale cheek, red earlobes, and wisps of hair hanging down, with a hint of black between the white and red.
Gorgeous and fragrant beauty.
Ellis curled his fingers, his mood uncontrollably dark. Did Anthony cast a spell on him when he spoke?
At first, she didn't take Song Shu's observation seriously, but gradually changed her habit to sit in the front row and was willing to call him teacher. Then, she had further contact with him in the palace...
Everything that I thought was a trivial matter has now become a curse that imprisons my heart.
Ellis was in her third year of high school before she traveled through time. High school was busy and boring, and Ellis had never considered her sexual orientation. She traveled through time here by chance when she was hit by a cat while saving it.
He felt very annoyed.
Unreasonable class system, ridiculous family ethics, can't those people see what life is like for people at the bottom of society?
Ellis was fed up with everything.
He didn't think he had the ability to change, so he chose to ignore it.
Until he met Song Shu.
…
The young man scratched his face with his fingers, as if he was a little embarrassed, "Sorry, I think I got too close."
Ellis was inexplicably irritated, but in his irritation there was also a certain soft emotion that belonged only to Song Shu.
He is obviously a vicious villain, but he has such a look.
Did Song Shu know that every time he looked at her like this, it would make people want to tear him to pieces?
Stop looking at him like that.
Ellis avoided Song Shu's gaze and whispered, "It's okay."
There was a voice in my heart shouting arrogantly, and it was useless to avoid it.
Fallen, out of control.
