Mu Yiran: "..."
Is this a sign that they've started to doubt her?!
What is Shi Youxi doing now?
Aren't they all in the same boat?
She gave an awkward laugh and brushed her hair aside. "I gave it to him. I didn't expect his stomach to be so sensitive. But normally no one would put drugs in his drink, right?"
Guan Shiyan sighed, "That's not necessarily true. Teacher, you don't know, our young master never accepts food or drink from women—no, from anyone other than people he knows."
“Countless people have drugged him through his food.”
Guan Shiyan smiled and glanced at Mu Yiran, "Teacher, you're the first one to get him to accept it."
Shi Si reproachfully said to Guan Shiyan, "This is nonsense. Teacher Mu is a role model. How could he be like those people? Teacher Mu, please don't mind. It's just that there are too many things like this. You know, in this day and age, it's very dangerous for boys to be out alone."
Mu Yiran swallowed hard: "...Of course, boys also need to protect themselves. It's good to be cautious, right, Shi?"
Shi Youxi propped his chin on his hand, listening to her gritted teeth. A surge of malice rose within him, and he sat up straight, very politely: "Teacher, you won't let anything happen to me, will you? After all, we're neighbors."
Upon hearing this, Shi Si frowned deeply. "You..."
"Neighbors?!" Guan Shiyan exclaimed in surprise. "So you two live in the next-door house? That's too much of a coincidence!"
Mu Yiran: "...Ahaha, what a coincidence."
"If it were anyone else, I would have thought it was premeditated!"
Shi Si jerked the steering wheel, glaring angrily at Guan Shiyan: "Can't you tell she's been planning this all along? You idiot!"
Guan Shiyan received it; he understood instantly!
His eyes were full of sincerity as he looked at Mu Yiran. "Teacher Mu, can I ask you for a favor?"
"..."
Mu Yiran and Shi Si's right eyelids twitched at the same time.
His glasses reflected light, as if he could see through everything. Mu Yiran shrank back guiltily, forcing a smile: "Don't be shy, go ahead."
"Teacher, since you two are neighbors, could you keep an eye on him for me? To be honest, as you can see, our young master is a bit weak."
Guan Shiyan pointed at Shi Youxi with affection, "He's quite good-looking, but I'm afraid he'll be kidnapped when he's walking around. He can't even beat someone in a fight. It's really worrying."
"Teacher Mu, you don't need to do anything. Just pay attention to those people who suddenly appear around him and offer them unsolicited help."
Mu Yiran, who had suddenly appeared next to Shi Youxi and brought him a cup of coffee without any apparent reason, was drenched in sweat!
"That's all, it's nothing—"
"That's not all!" Guan Shi extended his finger and began to give examples one by one: "There are also those who approached you under the guise of being fitting models!"
"....."
"Use your position to find him work and then take the opportunity to be alone with him!"
"......"
"If you fall down unexpectedly, you should immediately repay the life-saving grace!"
"........"
"Or like this time when he was sick, someone offered to take care of him, saying that their family had traditional Chinese medicine skills and could give him cupping therapy!"
"..." Mu Yiran fell completely silent.
Guan Shiyan switched hands, "And there's more—"
"squeak!"
The car braked suddenly, and Guan Shiyan's glasses nearly collided head-on with the car window.
He covered his nose and yelled, "Shi Si, do you even know how to drive?!"
Shi Si nearly broke the steering wheel! He gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it unnecessary to go into so much detail?"
Are you trying to tell me exactly what you're doing, or are you trying to teach her how to commit a crime?!
Guan Shiyan looked at him with disdain: "If I don't explain clearly, how can Teacher Mu tell which people need to be wary of?"
Shi Si took a deep breath and wiped her face. "Anyone with two eyes can see that!"
Guan Shiyan immediately exploded: "What do you mean! You look down on four-eyed people, don't you! You dare to bully me! If you're so capable, why don't you bully three-eyed people!"
"......."
The two started arguing, and Mu Yiran secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She felt that Shi Si's words were full of hidden meaning, as if she knew something...
Unfortunately, his current identity is so awkward that he can only pretend to be stupid all the way.
Back at the apartment, Guan Shiyan caused quite a commotion at Shi Youxi's house for a while before being kicked out by Shi Youxi along with Shi Si.
Shi Si smiled kindly: "Then we'll be going now. Please take good care of Xiao Xi, teacher."
Guan Shiyan waved goodbye, saying, "Teacher Mu, remember what I said! Never let anyone take advantage of this!"
"....."
The elevator doors closed in an instant, and the two people inside silently turned to look at each other. The next second, they both instinctively grabbed their phones.
...
Standing in front of the elevator, rubbing her cheeks which were stiff from smiling, Mu Yiran recalled Shi Si's veiled hints and said to the person behind her:
"Shouldn't we tell them about our collaboration?"
She turned around thoughtfully, "Especially Shi Si, that way he can help you find that traitor, and we can work together from the inside! Tsk, I can't act in front of those two familiar faces at all, I just want to laugh whenever I see them—"
A flash of white appeared before her eyes, and Mu Yiran choked on her words.
"...Why are you taking off your clothes?"
"Don't you feel cold with the air conditioning on? You just got over your fever."
"Didn't you say your acting skills were bad?" Shi Youxi answered irrelevantly, casually tossing the printed t-shirt she had taken off onto the back of the sofa and sitting down in front of Mu Yiran.
Shi Youxi leaned back to look at her, the overhead light following his smooth and graceful shoulder and neck lines, flowing over his long muscles, making one want to touch and polish this rough gem.
Mu Yiran, who had seen countless men, blushed and blankly followed his words, "So, so what?"
"Did you remember everything Guan Shiyan just told you, sister?"
"ah?"
The topic jumped around so quickly that Mu Yiran hadn't even reacted when her wrist was suddenly pulled, causing her to fall towards Shi Youxi.
She placed her hands on the boy's bare shoulders, knelt on one knee beside his legs, a typical pose of forcing herself on him.
Shi Youxi held her hand and rubbed it twice, staring at her as he said, "The fastest way to improve your acting skills is through practice."
"so……"
"Would you like me to have cupping done, sister?"
"......"
