Mu Yiran was awakened by a dream in the rainy night. She turned over but still couldn't fall back asleep, so she got up.
I've been dreaming about my best friend, Mo Mumu, for several days in a row lately.
This was supposed to be a beautiful dream, but the scary thing was that Mo Mumu deleted her graduation thesis in the dream.
At first, Mu Yiran thought it was because she missed people in the real world too much, but after dreaming about them for several days in a row, Mu Yiran suspected that Mo Mumu had performed a ritual at her grave.
Where did Mo Mumu find such a master? His professional skills are so strong!
That's just how vicious the method is.
That's my graduation thesis!
Mu Yiran left her room to go to the kitchen for a cup of hot milk to calm her nerves, but on the way she saw Shi Youxi, who should have been sleeping soundly in bed.
The boy, dressed in pajamas, obediently wore slippers after several lectures from Mu Yiran, and showed a moment of surprise upon seeing Mu Yiran.
"Did the young master have a nightmare?"
"Why is my sister awake?"
The two spoke at the same time.
Mu Yiran walked over and habitually took Shi Youxi's hand to feel his body temperature; it was very cold.
"I asked first, what are you doing instead of sleeping, young master? You have class tomorrow."
Shi Youxi grasped Mu Yiran's hand. In the past month, he had become unaccustomed to the cold, and he hadn't even noticed that he had begun to crave warmth.
"I had a dream, so I can't sleep."
Mu Yiran looked at him with sympathy, for they were both suffering from insomnia in the middle of the night.
She led Shi Youxi down the street, saying, "I'd like to make myself a cup of hot milk, young master?"
Shi Youxi didn't care what happened to him; he would never refuse anything Mu Yiran gave him.
Mu Yiran took out a glass and milk powder, and thinking of Shi Youxi's slender figure, blurted out: "You can only grow taller by drinking more milk, young master, you are too short."
Shi Youxi: "..."
"Ah, just as I expected..."
"Sure enough, my sister just keeps staring at Guan Shiyan because she thinks he's taller than me!"
Mu Yiran: "Huh?"
Mu Yiran turned to look at him in surprise, startled by his abrupt change of topic. "What are you talking about?"
Shi Youxi had the expression he expected and let out a soft hum from his nose.
Just as expected, my sister had been staring intently at Guan Shiyan!
Does she think she's short?
Shi Youxi straightened his back defiantly and met the girl's nose.
"..."
I only reach my sister's chin!
Okay, he is indeed a bit short...
Shi Youxi swiftly snatched the glass of milk that Mu Yiran had just prepared, exclaiming, "Hey, that's mine—"
The boy inhaled rapidly, emptying the cup in an instant.
Mu Yiran met his inexplicably resentful gaze, shrugged innocently, ignored this boy who, although a junior high school student, was actually like an elementary school kid, and turned to make herself another cup of tea.
Before it could even be put into its mouth, Mei Kai was snatched away again by Shi Youxi.
Mu Yiran: "Hiss..."
The boy drank too fast, spilling a lot of the drink. Shi Youxi slammed the cup down on the table, looked up at Mu Yiran's face full of profanities, and laughed: "Didn't my sister say that drinking more will help you grow taller?"
Mu Yiran: "..."
"Did I do something wrong?" The boy wiped the milk from his mouth, grinning smugly.
"ha."
"Wow, young master did a great job!" Mu Yiran mouthed exaggeratedly.
The boy's stubborn pride was truly an eye-opener for her. As a mature adult, Mu Yiran decided not to stoop to Shi Youxi's level with her magnanimous heart.
Mu Yiran thought this way until the third cup of milk was snatched away.
Seeing Shi Youxi's face contorted with embarrassment and hiccups from drinking too much, Mu Yiran smiled lovingly.
"You really are..."
Her hands suddenly felt itchy, and she kept wanting to type something.
Mu Yiran looked around to make sure no one else was there.
"Smack!"
A soft, muffled sound.
Shi Youxi: "..."
"?!?!"
Shi Youxi was initially stunned and stood frozen in place. When she came to her senses, her pale skin instantly turned red.
His usually aloof, half-open phoenix eyes suddenly widened and stared.
The boy frantically waved his hands behind his back, his eyelashes trembling uncontrollably.
"you!"
Cool!
Mu Yiran took a deep breath, rubbed her palms, and recalled the soft and elastic feeling she had just experienced.
She looked at the boy's ashamed and indignant face and smiled wickedly: "Young master, it's time for you to have a complete childhood."
Shi Youxi: "......."
...
The welcome party at Ace Academy is scheduled for a week from now. Shi Youxi, as the key figure to perform at the end of the party, will be rehearsing in the academy's music room for the next few days.
At 4:30 p.m., the newly appointed math teacher was giving a passionate speech on stage, gesturing wildly as he tried to demonstrate his fluent Chinese to the group of newly enrolled junior high students.
Good afternoon, my dandruff lovers!
"I'm your old shit, woooo!"
Shi Youxi's hand trembled as she was texting, and she frowned as she looked up at the reader on the stage.
The math teacher introduced himself on stage while giving reactions. Some students were amazed by his eloquent and handsome demeanor and were eager to show off their language talents.
"Fourth brother! Mud broken?"
"I'm your dad's dad! SKR~"
Guan Shiyan couldn't help but want to speak up to salvage the situation after hearing this, but he weakly shut his mouth after meeting Shi Youxi's annoyed look at his deskmate.
"Brain shit! What do you like to eat?"
As if he had finally gotten a satisfactory question, the math teacher slapped his forehead with a cool expression, and then confidently replied, "I like to eat alum!"
"woooooo!"
The crowd below was outraged; those who understood and those who didn't all shouted.
Amid cheers, the math teacher proudly spread his arms wide, joyfully embracing God.
This worldly joy can only be experienced by one person.
Shi Youxi, unable to bear the endless dialing sounds on his phone, quickly packed his textbooks into his bag and abruptly interrupted the climax of the Chinese rap showdown on stage.
"Teacher, I'm leaving get out of class now," the boy said to his math teacher as he slung his backpack over his shoulder.
Shi Youxi demonstrated his high quality and manners by embodying the teacher-student etiquette Mu Yiran had mentioned. After greeting the other person, he bowed politely and left the classroom before the other person could react.
The series of actions were so smooth that Guan Shiyan naturally packed his things and followed Shi Youxi's footsteps.
The two left behind a handsome silhouette under the enthusiastic gazes of the crowd.
Guan Shiyan followed Shi Youxi with quick, short steps, as a soft voice echoed behind him, "It's time to say goodbye~"
"Ah!" Guan Shiyan realized that it was the bell ringing to signal the end of get out of class.
He turned his head and glanced at the school building that was no longer visible... Was he and his classmate Shi skipping class or leaving early?
Why are you following me?
Shi Youxi received Mu Yiran's reply, looking languid, as if he only now had the mind to pay attention to Guan Shiyan behind him.
"Hey, are you done with get out of class too? I just got out of class too, what a coincidence."
Guan Shiyan smiled awkwardly; he knew Shi Youxi didn't like others following him.
He pointed to the school gate ahead, "I want to go buy some food, wanna come together? It's on me."
Shi Youxi looked at him with a strange expression. He watched as Guan Shiyan took out a few coins and grinned foolishly, "Don't you like to eat this?"
He had figured out Shi Youxi's quirks. Although the young master Shi appeared cold and aloof, he was actually a boy who loved sweets.
Shi Youxi put away her phone and walked in the opposite direction from the school gate. As she passed Guan Shiyan, she glanced at him and said, "I don't like candy."
"besides..."
The boy seemed to remember something, and his aura suddenly turned cold. He turned to face Guan Shiyan, his voice flat and cold. Guan Shiyan involuntarily held his breath under his icy gaze.
"Don't be like your older sister."
It was only because of a slight resemblance that Guan Shiyan had the opportunity to get close to him. How could Shi Youxi not see that Guan Shiyan was approaching him with ulterior motives and purposes?
But he actually wanted to imitate his sister, which is unacceptable.
Guan Shiyan was stunned by Shi Youxi's abrupt and nonsensical words. He had seen Shi Youxi eat the whole thing that day and then keep holding it. What else could it be but liking it...?
Also, who should we learn from?
He didn't...
He simply wanted to repay Shi Youxi.
After Shi Youxi finished speaking, he turned and left expressionlessly. He really didn't understand why it was such a big deal to go through all that trouble to rehearse a performance, which would delay his time to see his sister.
But this was at Principal Ace's invitation, and parents will be watching from the audience.
Having not seen his parents for over a month, Shi Youxi had no expectations that Shi Yan and Bai Shengsheng would come.
But I still... have some hope.
Shi Youxi quickened his pace, wanting to finish quickly and go home.
Several new headdresses and gloves arrived today, and he couldn't wait to see his sister wearing them.
Footsteps at the same frequency sounded behind him again; it was Guan Shiyan catching up. He ignored them, but the next second his body was grabbed by a force.
Guan Shiyan blushed and grabbed the boy's backpack strap. He stuffed all the cheese candies in his hand into Shi Youxi's arms, then looked away when he met the indifferent gaze.
"I... I didn't deliberately learn anything. I just think you're handsome and a very nice person, Shi!"
"And thank you so much for saving me! I want to repay you..."
Finally, as if summoning a great deal of courage, Guan Shiyan closed his eyes, raised his head, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "I really like Shi Tongxue!"
Shi Youxi: "..."
Shi Youxi: "??"
unlucky!
Guan Shiyan closed his eyes tightly, gripped his school uniform tightly, and shouted!
"I...I want to be your underling!"
