51 to 60

This wasn't the first time the system had caught Nicco off guard, and she couldn't remember how many times Xu Xu Jiyue had deducted points from her score when there seemed to be no ripples in the situation.

But compared to Xu Xu Yue's calm behavior in the past where she couldn't see any emotions, these words clearly made Natalie feel a bit of emotion in her voice.

It seemed like she didn't like her behavior of hinting to her just now that she was amenable to Shen Yanxing.

What was this?

The possessiveness that the heroine had already developed before she had even awakened?

Natalie Lu didn't feel that when she read the original novel, Xu Xu Yue was such a character who would develop a strong possessive desire.

She and Shen Yanxing were both the same person, calm and strong, and there were times when Natalie even had the illusion that the two of them weren't like lovers, but rather like teammates with full tacit understanding.

And the storyline is just as good as it gets.

Who does not want to see the beautiful sister strong combination, stepping on the hate sky high heels, double row kill it?

Of course Nicco likes it too.

This is also the reason why she, a straight woman, read this yuri novel in the first place.

With that thought, a key question occurred to Lu Shicheng.

She was a straight girl, a steel straight girl!

It was impossible for her to fall for Shen Yanxing!

Although she didn't know why Xu Xu Yue had developed such a possessive desire after meeting Shen Yanxing only once, she didn't know why she had developed such a possessive desire after meeting Shen Yanxing only once.

But she was really wronged.

Thinking about this world's setting of almost all Ji Pups, Lu Shicheng suddenly had some tears in her eyes.

She was just a poor maiden who wanted to fulfill the heroine so that she could get a pair of healthy legs.

Thinking this way, Lu Shicheng decided that she still had to struggle a bit, at least to tell Xu Ziyue that she had "thought" about Shen Yanxing.

"No, I just met her today, how could I possibly be interested in her." Natalie Lu pretended to be relaxed and replied to Xu Ziyue, not forgetting to pat the rainbow fart of the ten rows of CP, "I was looking at Shen Yanxing's good looks, and you seem to be very compatible with her, so I paid more attention to her."

After all, they are all the same old black people who are happy with their actions but not with their colors.

Natalie added in her heart, the corner of her mouth slightly raised.

She felt that her words were really superb, not only did she take off her own feelings towards Shen Yanxing, but also complimented Xu Ziyue's match with Shen Yanxing, it was like killing two birds with one stone, worthy of being included in the system's teaching materials.

Just she has not yet had time to gloat over her explanation, her ears immediately followed by another broadcast from the system: "-40".

"......?!"

Natalie Lu was violently stunned.

The sunlight was almost level with the windowpane, bringing the last of the setting sun's brightness into the room, blinding the world with a layer of illusion.

She looked at Xu Xu Yue sitting on the small chair, and couldn't help but worry that this person was under the illusion that she could hear her own heart.

After all, her words just now, aside from the spat that she added in her heart, were simply flawless ah.

Lu Shicheng's face was filled with confusion, and Xu Jiyue slightly raised her eyes a few moments to gaze at this blurry figure in front of her.

Her expression was unprecedentedly calm, but her dark pupils looked like there were waves churning in a storm.

"Lu Shicheng, isn't it true that but a little bit of poise is worthy of being noticed in your eyes?"

Xu Xu Yue asked as such, her voice a few points colder than before.

Lu Shicheng was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to deal with Xu Xu Yue's question.

She did say that Shen Yanxing was quite good looking, but to pat her on the back for being a good match for Xu Ziyue!

Lu Shicheng knew that she had been misunderstood by Xu Ziyue again, and busily explained, "No, I ......"

But Xu Ziyue didn't give her a chance to explain, her voice still cold, "I'm tired and want to rest. There's no need to call me for dinner, I'll call room service."

It had been a long time since Xu Xu Yue had treated herself this coldly, and Lu Shicheng didn't know how to react for a moment.

She didn't even know where she had said the wrong thing until now, and on top of her bewilderment, there was also an indescribable feeling.

It was as if she sensed that the matter of cold people not being all that cold.

The reason why Xu Xu Jiyue had rarely revealed emotions in her own past impressions might just be because she hadn't yet encountered the person who would make her calm no longer calm, indifferent no longer indifferent.

And now that person seemed to have appeared.

And the words of this crazy batch of her own just now could threaten her ......

Lu Shicheng couldn't help but pause his gaze as he thought about this conclusion he had just reached.

She didn't know if it was because she sensed that Xu Xu Yue's persona wasn't actually that calm and perfect, or something else, but her mood suddenly dropped.

"Oh." Lu Shicheng opened her mouth bar and churned out a simple syllable from her vocal cords, "Good."

She didn't know what was wrong with her, she just felt that some of her steps today weren't that brisk.

But clearly there was nothing wrong with her legs.

Today's sunset was a little pale, and the sunset sky was a little pale.

Lu Shicheng very much walked to the door, only just as her hand touched the doorknob, she was stopped by a voice coming from behind, "Lu Shicheng."

It was Xu Xu Yue.

Lu Shicheng was a little surprised, and a little inexplicably expectant, and turned her head, "Huh?"

"You're still underage." Xu Xu Ziyue said in a faint voice, her voice somewhat moderated.

The words were like a reminder, yet they didn't know what they were reminding.

It came without a premise or follow-up, as if it had floated up out of thin air.

Lu Shicheng blinked his eyes, a little confused as to what Xu Xu Yue meant by this.

And without waiting for her to open her mouth to ask, Xu Xu Yue proceeded to give her a task: "Finish all of the Centripetal Force (II) section of the Physics workbook, and we'll talk about it tomorrow night."

Lu Shicheng never thought that she would have to do her homework even though she had come out to accompany Xu Ziyue in the competition.

Just being deducted fifty points in a row, she didn't dare to go bargaining and only nodded her head and accepted, "I know, Teacher Xu."

As the words fell, Lu Shicheng lifted her foot to go out the door.

Only the left foot that was just raised to step over the doorframe was replaced with the right one.

The door was closed from the outside with a crisp click, and then the room went completely silent.

Xu Xu Jiyue was still sitting on the edge of the suitcase, and the chat interface of her cell phone was lit up with an extraordinarily eye-catching red dot.

--That was the system's spontaneous greeting message.

"Shen Yanxing: we've become friends, now start chatting."

The system in blind mode automatically played this message to Xu Xu Yue.

It was clear that the voice was calm and emotionless, but a small mountain knitted up between Xu Xu Jiyue's brows.

She wasn't interested in this new friend, nor did she want to start chatting with her.

She didn't know whether or not to attribute the annoyance in her heart right now to jealousy, and that childishness she'd picked up from Lu Shien pushed her to lift her hand and cross this message alert over with a light swipe.

Night covered the land, like a fine net enveloping the city in silence.

The sound of music that had originally broken through the walls and landed in the room gradually disappeared, leaving only the sound of turning pages in the quiet room.

And the long yawn of the young girl.

"Ah..."

Natalie Lu held a pen in her hand and leaned back in her chair and stretched hard.

She just looked at the exercises she had just finished and had a feeling of physical and mental exhaustion.

The questions in the section on centripetal force were simply difficult and numerous.

Lu Shicheng didn't know if Xu Xuyue didn't know about it, and she stayed up until zero o'clock before barely finishing it.

Her brain had been running at high speed for two to three hours, and she didn't even have the heart to call out to Qiuqiu to plan what she was going to do next as a red maiden, or maybe she was subconsciously resisting herself from thinking about it.

Being exhausted by her physics knowledge became a good reason for Lu Shi Nico to just casually throw her own pen on the table and unbutton her school uniform shirt about to embrace her big bed.

"Ah, cozy." Nicco's body was supported by the soft mattress, and her face couldn't help but rub against the pillow with a little bit of fresh scent.

The night was deepening, and the moonlight fell through the curtains in a corner of the room, hazily and gently urging people to fall asleep.

Lu Shicheng slowly closed her eyes, just as she felt her spirit gradually relaxing and was about to fall asleep, a knock came from next door.

That knocking didn't sound very gentle and courteous, it wasn't at all like how a hotel service staff would act.

Natalie Lu's just-about-to-fall-asleep state was dispersed by a single knock, and a disgruntled annoyance filled her furrowed brow.

"Who is it? Are you still letting people sleep in the middle of the night?" Lu Shicheng was annoyed.

Qiuqiu floated out at the sound, "Host, it seems like the door that was knocked on was Xu Xu Yue's room."

When Lu Shicheng heard this from Chu Chu, she immediately sat up from the bed.

The knocking sound that came in through the doorway gradually grew louder and seemed to be mixed with faint human voices.

"Little sister, open the door, we have a misunderstanding, give us a chance to explain it face to face."

"Don't ignore people ah, my brother and not on purpose, just go to the wrong floor, who has not had a mistake, sympathize a little can not?"

It was a man's voice.

It seemed to be the companion of the man who spoke out of turn when he checked in this afternoon.

It sounded as if there was some politeness in it, but not much at all.

Barely maintaining an undercurrent of tone and attitude, the penetration was full of destitution.

"Little sister, are you awake? Little sister, my brother can't sleep these days, why are you still sleeping so soundly."

"Little sister, brother is not the kind of reasoning is not forgiving people, you come out to call my brother to say an apology, we have this matter even, is not it, you hide in the room does not come out counting what ah?"

......

Slowly, as if seeing knocking on the door had no effect, the man's words became more and more outrageous, his so-called reasoning was full of threats.

Natalie Lu originally wanted to teach the man a lesson, and had her bodyguard deter him at the Public Security Bureau, so she didn't rush to have him come back.

However, she did not want to hit the dog into the poor alley, the dog also has accomplices, but instead to Xu Ziyue invited trouble.

"We have to communicate when we encounter problems, your teacher didn't teach you to run away when you encounter things, right, little, sister, sister."

Clunk two times, the man said knocking on the door turned into smashing the door.

Natalie Lu was listening in the room and couldn't help but be startled.

Instantly, Xu Xu Yue's appearance popped into her head.

She was by herself in her room, and this man standing outside the door was being so aggressive.

If she was scared too ......

"Little sister, let me tell you ah, you don't think that you are a student and have a teacher to cover you can rest easy, society is not like this ah, come out to me, do you hear me? Don't make brother me angry!"

The man's words completely tore off the disguise of politeness just now, the thick voice was full of threats.

Lu Shicheng's heart suddenly beat extraordinarily hard, she originally wanted to wait for the bodyguard to come back to deal with this matter, but now she couldn't wait any longer.

Of course, Natalie knew that Xu Xu Yue would not panic at any time, would not think that this kind of thing would show fear.

She also surely knew that it was safest for her to stay in her room and not come out.

But for some reason, what Lu Shicheng had in front of her eyes at the moment was Xu Jiyue now by herself in her room, unable to see the situation in front of the door, isolated and listening to this man's somewhat humiliating threats.

It was like there was a fire burning up in her body, suddenly ruffling through Lu Shichengyi's heart field.

She simply could not choose to sit on the bed and wait for the bodyguards, security guards, or anyone else to come to Xu Ziyue's rescue.

In this strange world, she only trusted herself.

The jacket she had just taken off was casually picked up from the chair, and as Chu Chu watched Lu Shiqiu's movement to push open the door, she was busy chasing after him and called out, "Host! Host ......"

But Lu Shi Nicco didn't even give Chu the chance to finish his sentence, raising his hand and opening the door.

Then he kicked it and said in a hateful voice, "Screw you."

The original owner is fitness, and the leg strength is extraordinarily good, this kick, the man did not have the slightest preparation, so he was kicked on the ground, pain came from his waist, twisted on the carpet, shrunk into a stinky shrimp.

Natalie Lu had fire in her heart, her voice was a few points higher, "Who is your sister? You are harassing high school students do you know that!"

The man covered his stomach and looked viciously at the condescending Lu Shicheng, biting his teeth and cursing in pain, "Grass, what the fuck are you daring to mess with me! Do you know ......"

"That's him! Harassing my students!"

It was also at this time that the orchestra's teacher Chen rushed over with the hotel's security guards, and in three or two strokes, they pressed this man, who no longer had much ability to fight but only a hard mouth, to the ground.

QiuQiu finally flew to Lu Shichen, full of anxiety, and told her what she hadn't finished saying just now, "Host! Host! You stole Shen Yanxing's scene!"

Lu Shicheng's eyes, which were still full of fire, were stunned for a moment when she heard this.

She then looked up towards the half-corridor where the Provincial No. 1 Middle School Orchestra lived, and under the obscure light stood the person she had just scrutinized.

Shen Yanxing was standing outside the door of his room.

It looked like he was about to come over, but realized that he didn't seem to have the need to go over and help.

The chaos in the corridor was quickly brought under control by hotel security, and the man was dragged into the elevator.

The elevator door opens and closes with a gentle, unusual beep, and the bright corridor returns to the calm of the night.

Natalie Lu looked at the situation that had already calmed down and even cleaned up the battlefield, dangling in place.

As if sensing that the storm has passed, many students who heard the commotion have pushed open the door towards the corridor to see, followed by Mr. Chen shouted back: "It's all right, go back to sleep, tomorrow there is the opening ceremony. Provincial first students are also, quickly go to sleep."

The students whispered and discussed back to their rooms, the corridor was not calm for a while.

In the hustle and bustle of the corridor at the moment, far away, Lu Shi Nicco saw Shen Yanxing nodding to himself in a polite and recognizable way, and then opened the door and went back to his room without saying anything.

I don't want to say anything.

Your future girlfriend just got a shock ah ......

Natalie Lu was a bit gripped when Quchu floated to her ear, "Host, at the same time you rushed out Shen Yanxing also pushed open the door to the room."

"Then why did you remind me?" Natalie Lu questioned.

"I called out to you ah, I'm just a virtual image, can't pull you at all ah ......" QiuQiu was a bit aggravated, "And host you've already lost your mind at that time."

Natalie Lu thought back for a moment, as if she did hear ChuQu's call when she rushed out, and she did not take advantage of the situation, "I'm not afraid that Xu Xu Yue is in danger. ......"

QiuQiu sighed and reminded, "Host, with Shen Yanxing around Xu Shen Yue won't be in any great danger, you don't need to be so anxious."

QiuQiu's advice echoed in Nico's mind, drifting as if it had touched somewhere.

She then looked at Xu Xu Yue sitting in the living room, where Ms. Chen was squatting beside her to calm her down.

It was a cool autumn day, and the young girl was wearing only a cream-colored cotton nightgown that showed off her calves.

Her slender arms couldn't hold up the empty sleeves, and her thin figure was made even thinner by the people around her.

The man just unreasonable loud threat late from Lu Shi Nicco's mind dissipated, she lightly bit her lower lip, in the heart of the rhetorical question: "Could it be that as long as there is Shen Yanxing appeared in the future, we will not do anything? Even if it's to watch Xu Xu Yue get hurt and Shen Yanxing arrive late?"

Qiuqiu was caught by this question and stuck for a moment, reluctantly explaining, "After all, they're just getting to know each other now, the system needs to dispatch this kind of thing to quickly cultivate their feelings for each other."

And it was this sentence that made Lu Shicheng recall the incident that happened not long ago.

She had only gotten drunk and said some jerky things, and she had been warned and punished by the Master System, and had even dragged Xu Xu Yue into getting injured.

Comparing the two, an inexplicable feeling clogged her heart.

"Xu Xu Yue, are you alright."

"I'm fine Mr. Chen."

"Good boy, scared you. It was negligence on the teacher's part, should have been on alert when this came up this afternoon."

"This is also something we had no way of anticipating."

The sound of Xu Xu Yue's conversation with Teacher Chen came from the quiet corridor, and compared to Teacher Chen's heartbroken nervousness, Xu Xu Xu Yue's reply was calmer than anyone else in the room.

Come to think of it, any of the events Xu Ziyue had experienced in the past half a year or so were far more dangerous than today.

The calmness and composure that was born in her bones had been honed and refined, and if the person in front of her at the moment was her mother, Nichco thought that even if Xu Ziyue was calm and collected, she would still be like a little girl of her age, leaning back into her mother's arms, gently soothed by her mother's palms.

Lu Shicheng looked at Xu Jiyue in the room like this, and suddenly had a feeling in her heart that she couldn't describe.

It pressed on her, making her unwilling to think about the three words "Shen Yanxing".

Of course, Natalie knew that feelings were created over time, but if they were too intentional, they would seem fake.

Even if Xu Ziyue's fate had been difficult, she should not have been forced to prepare her for more suffering just to make her fall in love with another person.

A true god wouldn't be like that.

"Host, why don't you try to redeem yourself later." Chu Chu suggested, some worry in her voice, "I'm afraid that the system will detect this matter and punish you in some way."

"Redeem how?" Lu Shicheng asked rhetorically, "We're not even from the same school, so it can't be that I'm going to glean Shen Yanxing out of the room and press her to comfort Xu Xu Yue."

Lu Shicheng didn't know where she had gotten such rebellion, her heart felt like it was clogged with something with nowhere to release it, and her words were wrapped in fire.

Sometimes she really felt like a long twisted branch on a broken old tree, she just didn't want to do it, no one could force her.

"If the system has any punishment I'll take it."

This was the first time Lu Shi Nicco refused Chu Chu's suggestion to ignore the system's rules.

Saying so, he stepped into Xu Xu Yue's room.

"What kind of people are these, how can they disregard the law like this, really we can't just let this person off the hook."

Just as he entered, Lu Shichen heard Mr. Chen speaking with righteous indignation.

She took out her cell phone and said, "I'll contact my brother later to deal with this matter, and won't let this person off easily."

Teacher Chen was aware of what kind of person Lu Shichen's brother was, and nodded, "Then I'm relieved."

She then turned to look at Xu Xu Yue who was on the side, saying, "You don't have to go to the opening ceremony tomorrow Xu Yue, just wait until the afternoon when we play and then you can come over, and take a good rest first tonight."

"Thank you teacher." Xu Xu Jingyue said in a faint voice.

"I'll leave first if there's nothing else." Teacher Chen had to go to the venue first thing in the morning to get ready, and seeing that Xu Xu Yue didn't seem to have any abnormalities, he got up to leave after saying so.

Only when she reached the door, she took hold of Lu Shicheng's arm and instructed her, "I'll have to trouble you to pay more attention tonight, call me if there's anything going on with Xu Ziyue."

"Uh-huh." Lu Shicheng nodded, "Teacher don't worry."

Just after explaining so, Teacher Chen did not lift her foot to leave.

She just looked down at the clothes on Lu Shicheng's body, raised her hand to help her pull her open shirt toward the center, and whispered, "And button up your clothes."

Lu Shicheng sniffed and was immediately embarrassed.

It was only then that she realized that this white camisole nightgown that Aunt Sun had packed for herself was a bit see-through and a bit too cool, and looking down she could even see her slightly barren body.

Flustered, Lu Shicheng buttoned up her buttons while pretending as if nothing had happened to her as she asked Xu Xu Yue, "Are you really okay with that one?"

"It's fine." Xu Xu Jiyue shook her head and just looked at the young girl who was walking towards her side.

Simple blocks of color formed the blurred figure of the young girl, her white shoulders picking at a pair of extremely thin shoulder straps.

Fingers flicked at the buttons, collecting the translucent skin a little from bottom to top, the white shirt half-covered.

The late fall night had cooled a bit, and the wind rushed through the hallway into the room before closing the door.

I don't know if it's the room thermostat setting that senses the coolness coming in and raises the temperature, Xu Xu Jiyue feels her cheeks slightly hot.

With that, she lowered her eyelashes slightly for a few moments and continued, "He didn't manage to break in, but he was just impotent and furious."

"That's good, let's go to bed." Lu Shicheng didn't know much about the condition of Xu Xu Yue's eyes, and finished buttoning up as she spoke.

The light leisurely illuminated the room, and the silhouettes on the wall slowly juxtaposed.

Before Lu Shicheng could do anything to prepare herself, Xu Ziyue's hand rested on her arm.

It was a natural movement, like it was supposed to be, and it was also supposed to be something that the two of them had agreed upon.

It was only when the young girl's slightly cool fingers lay on her arm in a familiar way that Lu Shicheng paused for a moment.

She couldn't tell what it felt like.

It wasn't an accident, it wasn't being startled, it was like something slowly blossomed out of the overgrown grassy field, and with a thump, unexpectedly, the annoyance that had been clogging up her heart just then washed away with a thump.

Lu Shicheng sensed the tacit understanding between her and Xu Xuyue.

With Shen Yanxing already out of the picture.

The entire world at midnight fell silent, and the yellow lights floating in the air disappeared by half in the blink of an eye.

The dim yellow nightlight haloed a circle of mildness at the bedside position, striking a layer of calmness on the side of the young girl's face on the pillow.

Xu Xu Jiyue seemed to be asleep.

Lu Shicheng stood outside the bedroom, judging from a distance.

She thought that after tossing and turning for so long tonight, tomorrow she might as well let Xu Ziyue sleep as long as she wanted, and while she was still in the room, she herself would help her organize the dress and shoes, as well as the jewelry that she would wear to the competition tomorrow afternoon, so that no one would be allowed to come and disturb her in the morning.

As soon as she said she would do it, Lu Shicheng gently took out the dress that had been folded up to occupy a suitcase, stepped on the bench to hang it on the iron frame above the glass door of the balcony, and carefully straightened out the folds of the hemline of the dress.

The dampened tissue paper rustled as it skimmed over the skirt, and no one noticed the faint sigh of exhalation from the sleeping girl in the bedroom.

Xu Xu Jiyue wasn't asleep, but not because Lu Shicheng was in the living room preparing her dress for her to wear tomorrow.

If anything, that man just now was indeed vicious enough.

But Xu Ziyue indeed wasn't scared, she would have picked up her cell phone the moment she heard the knock on the door, calmly recording the audio and notifying Teacher Chen.

This series of events didn't consume too much of her energy, and the fear had no place to happen.

That is, until Natalie Lu kicked the man's ass outside the door.

That fearful dread that had been contained in the back of her mind because the owner knew it was safe, tumbled up without concern.

Xu Xu Jiyue had forgotten how long it had been since she had felt like this, and again, it seemed as if she had been like this not too long ago.

Tongues of fire rolled over the wood with a crackling sound, and patches of red skimmed in front of Xu Ziyue's eyes, slowly turning into the headlights of a late autumn evening homecoming traffic jam.

The chair was gently moved, subtly emitting two not-so-longly-spaced da, da.

This should have been an annoying noise, but Xu Jiyue was very relieved to hear it.

The night seemed to fade for a few moments, but also seemed to remain shrouded in rich blackness, Lu Shicheng finished arranging the folds on her skirt, too sleepy to keep her eyes open, and lifted her eyes to see that it was already two o'clock in the morning.

"Host, I'm so sleepy." Quchu flopped down on Natalie Lu's head and let out a long yawn.

"Me too." Lu Shicheng only felt a soreness in her eyes and yawned sleepily.

Just when Chu Chu thought she could go to bed with Lu Shi Nicco, she saw a line of pop-up prompts, "Host, the system is reminding Xu Xu Yue that there are signs of a cold right now."

"Cold? Stirring up the covers?" Lu Shicheng's head stuttered as he thought this, and then he lifted his feet and walked towards Xu Ziyue's room.

The night was silent, and the bright moonlight intertwined with the light from the nightlight, illuminating Xu Ziyue's sleeping cheeks.

Her long black hair hangs casually but not messily on the side of her face, her thick eyelashes falling with a bit of light, lighting up half of her face in a good manner.

Natalie Lu couldn't help but look twice more, and then realized that Xu Ziyue really hadn't covered herself as she had expected.

The light quilt was open from behind her back, and with her chipped back exposed to the air, it looked like it would be easy to catch a cold.

"Is this a nightmare?" Lu Shicheng sighed with lightly drooping eyelashes as she remembered the harassment of the party.

With that, she murmured, and with that, she propped one hand carefully next to Xu Xu Yue, while the other probed over to tuck Xu Xu Yue in.

The young girl's back had been exposed to the air for who knew how long, and Lu Shicheng's hand that had unintentionally leaned on it felt slightly cold.

She carefully tucked Xu Zuoyue back into bed and was about to get up when she suddenly felt something leaning on her hand.

Slightly cold and familiar, clear bones choking her tiger's mouth, and then ......

gripped down.

--The sleeping Xu Xu Yue actually unconsciously gripped the hand placed on her side!

Lu Shicheng's pupils trembled at once, instantly waking up.

She also realized with some despair that she simply couldn't do anything to pull her hand out without disturbing Xu Ziyue. :...

The smell of disinfectant wafted through the air, and there was a greenish light in the white of the emptiness.

When Xu Xu Yue became conscious, a red apple was weighing heavily in her hand.

The surroundings were so quiet that even her tender breathing could be heard extraordinarily clearly.

Xu Zuoyue noticed that her vision had become shorter again, and raised her head to look towards the distance, exactly the same as the scene in that past dream, the little girl in the wheelchair was at the end of the corridor, watching herself walk towards her.

"Can you play with me for a little while longer?" The little girl watched Xu Xu Yue walk to her side, her tender voice permeated with anticipation.

Xu Xu Jiyue had the feeling that she was making use of her childhood image to get in touch with this little girl.

She was really curious about the identity of this little girl who had made herself unable to forget either in her dreams or in reality, and nodded, "Yes."

As the words fell, Xu Xu Yue saw the little girl immediately reveal a contented yet beautiful smile in front of her.

The even light suddenly circled a golden halo around her head, her fleshy little face covered in splendor, bright and colorful and somewhat eye-shattering.

In a flash, Xu Xu Yue felt as if she had seen this splendor somewhere before.

Just before she could think of it, that same small hand reached out in front of her.

The little girl took the apple Xu Jiyue had picked up and slowly pushed her wheelchair to her hospital room.

Xu Xu Jiyue followed behind, and also walked in.

I don't know if it was because of the change in vision, but the little girl's four-square hospital room looked big and empty.

Monotonous white covered the entire space, with only the apple that was handed over from her hand having the only color.

Time seemed to have stood still for a moment, and Xu Xu Yue suddenly felt a boundless loneliness.

She didn't know how she should face such paleness, not to mention how this little girl lived on.

People say that a person is calm to the extreme is terrible, but for an environment, it is not?

The smell of disinfectant water is extraordinarily real spread all over Xu Xu Yue's nostrils, she looked up at the window made of paintings.

Ghostly, she turned her head to her and asked, "Do you want to go out?"

The little girl was first stunned for a moment at Xu Xu Yue's question, then she looked at her legs.

That dark hair was tied low with two bows, bobbing along with her head, "I can't get out."

Then she asked, "Can you come stay with me more often?"

The little girl's voice was tender and cautious, her dark eyes flickered with cautious anticipation.

Xu Xu Yue was a little moved, but knew that she had no way to give her this promise, and that even this meeting with her in her dream was an accident.

But while she was hesitating, a clear and childish voice suddenly came to her ears.

It was not from her, yet it was indeed her voice.

"Good."

In an instant, the anticipation on the little girl's face blossomed into a smile, and Xu Xu Yue's hand was tucked ten thousand times over with an apple.

The apple was red and full, as if it had been specially treasured after a thousand selections.

Xu Ziyue didn't expect the little girl to give herself something so precious, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say to her.

And then she felt as if she was a little tired, her eyelids felt like they were being pressed by the apple, too heavy to lift.

The incandescent light enveloped her, and with that, she held hands with the little girl as she lay on the hospital bed that was extraordinarily spacious for them.

Blink, blink, and slowly the eyes closed together.

......

The light spread across the young girl's tightly closed eyes, bright and somewhat blinding.

Xu Xu Jiyue gently furrowed her brows and slowly opened her eyes.

The blur was like a diffuse water stain, haloing the picture that had been clear just moments ago.

Xu Xu Jiyue felt the light and sound, and for a moment, she was a little confused as to whether this was reality or a dream.

Disappointed.

Xu Ziyue sighed unexpectedly, vaguely feeling as if there was some strange object below her sight.

She just looked along, and the hand she held with the little girl stuck in her mind changed to that with Lu Shicheng.

Feelings slowly came back together at the moment, and Xu Xu Yue felt a warmth and even a bit of dampness laying in her palm.

Lu Shicheng's hand just interlocked with hers, looking skeletal yet somewhat unexpectedly soft.

That even breath fell gently on the back of Xu Jiyue's hand, the warmth blurring out the peace and good behavior of this person who was sleeping at the moment.

Xu Jiyue's fingers suddenly moved slightly, looking at the young girl sleeping beside her, her heart somehow skipped a beat.

Suddenly, she had the feeling that Lu Shicheng's hand resembled that little girl's hand.

After a moment's pause, she thought that it might be because she had shaken hands with Nico in the real world, and that was why she had dreamed of holding hands with the little girl in her dream.

Yes, how could Lu Shichen be that little girl?

How could there be anything so magical.

Xu Xu Jiyue just looked at her hands clasped together with Lu Shichen, scrutinizing this young girl who inexplicably slept beside her bed.

Natalie Lu's body was draped in a blanket that wasn't considered too thick, like she'd hooked it from a small couch not far away.

Xu Xu Jiyue didn't think it was some kind of perverted voyeurism, but she didn't really understand the man's behavior either.

Her own hands weren't that bad to break free, and if she wanted to break free, any method would do.

Was it because she didn't want to be tossed awake?

Xu Xu Jiyue's eyes suddenly changed slightly, and such a thought popped up in her head for some reason.

She moved her wrist to separate herself from Lu Shicheng, but suddenly felt something a bit choking under her wrist.

It was a piece of paper.

Or a piece of white paper.

Xu Xu Jiyue frowned, knowing full well that she hadn't spared this before she went to bed, not to mention that she didn't know what kind of drugs Lu Shicheng's gourd was selling.

After a moment's pause, Xu Xu Yue somehow seemed to have thought of something, and ghostly, she placed her finger on this white paper.

The bumpy dots connected into words that instantly appeared under the young girl's fingers, clumsily articulating the man's explanation saying, I'll set aside your tucking in, you hold zu my hand, I'm not going to disturb you, lending zu the edge of the bed.

The words were not quite fluent, and the expression was still clear, like the man who could fall asleep even on the edge of the bed.

Xu Xu Yue slowly read the sentence, finger from beginning to end, paused and resumed to re-read from the beginning.

She really didn't want to be tossed awake herself.

Xu Xu Jiyue felt a bit incredulous, yet felt that perhaps only this person could do such a thing for herself.

After all, she was Lu Shicheng.

Fingers gently rubbing the sheet of paper made a subtle rustling sound, and the system's voice merged with it, forming a prompt in the quiet sleep, "+50."

Fiercely, Lu Shicheng sat up from the edge of the bed in a flash.

Then, caught off guard, yet like it was supposed to be, she collided with Xu Xu Yue's gaze.

Daylight poured down from the window behind her, spreading along in Lu Shicheng's line of sight.

Xu Jiyue's eyes were as cool as ever, but seemed to hide some gentleness in them, and that fair and clean face had some of the youthfulness of the morning's first awakening, like a deer, hitting one's heart with a thud.

Lu Shicheng opened his mouth, as if he had forgotten to speak, and as if he had forgotten to breathe.

She didn't know if she woke up suddenly, or was stunned by this moment Xu Ziyue, her brain was confused for half a second, and only then, like a program that had finished loading, did she explain to Xu Ziyue, "That I didn't mean to intentionally come to sleep with you ...... I I I was seeing that your quilt stomped off, and came to cover you with the quilt, and then, on the ......"

Just before Lu Shicheng finished organizing and explaining her words, Xu Ziyue interrupted her.

She just put away the paper in her hand without slowing down, her voice calmly saying to her, "I know."

Lu Shicheng was stunned for a moment, then looked at the paper in her hand and realized with a jolt that Xu Xu Yue had seen her message.

She added fifty points to that one out of the blue, thinking to herself that this was a treat for her night's hard work, in keeping with the gentleman's style?

"Must be the host!" Chuu popped out energetically, "You were considerate and heroic last night, and you didn't take advantage of the situation! This is simply the noblest of human virtues! Worthy of being a host!"

"Hehehe."

Is there anything more mood-enhancing than getting extra points early in the morning and hearing rainbow farts?

Not according to Natalie Lu.

With that, she removed the blanket from her body, looked at the time, and said to Xu Xu Yue, "It's already ten thirty, should we order lunch to come up? It's fifteen minutes from here to the competition arena, and it starts at two in the afternoon, so we'd better leave at 1:30, we'll still have to change and gather and stuff when we get there, the more time we have the better, what do you think?"

As if it had been planned before, Nico Lu's words at this moment compared to just now, simply did not seem to come from the same person's mouth.

It was dry and precise, and rarely attentive.

Xu Xu Jiyue just looked at this blurry silhouette in her line of sight, the corners of her mouth always wanting to raise, but they were still suppressed by her, "It's fine, your arrangement is very good."

Having received Xu Xu Yue's approval, Lu Shicheng was somewhat happy.

If she were Yuanzi right now, her tail would be wagging.

Picking up where she left off, Lu Shicheng asked again, "Then what are you having for lunch? I'll go set it for you."

Like a careful waitress, she flipped through the menu that the hotel had set aside, "For lunch, there's omelet rice, beef noodles, buckwheat with preserved vegetables, and fried fresh milk ......"

"I'll just have a bowl of lighter noodles." Xu Xu Jiyue did not press the menu to come up and said in a light voice.

"Shredded chicken noodles then, it's hot and warms the stomach." Lu Shicheng said.

"Good." Xu Xu Yue nodded.

Daylight spread throughout the bedroom, a little harsh, but giving her a very comfortable feeling.

She couldn't say why, perhaps it was because the bed here was soft and the quilt pressed against her body was light.

Or maybe it was the fact that there was someone thoughtful and caring at the moment.

Arrangements made, Lu Shicheng was sharply ready to call the hotel front desk to order food when she heard a call from behind her, "Lu Shicheng."

Thinking Xu Xu Yue was looking for herself for lunch, she turned around and asked, "Still want to eat ......"

Only before she could finish this sentence, Lu Shicheng saw a beige baseball jacket fly towards her unexpectedly.

She subconsciously raised her hand to catch it, the thick fabric weighing heavily on her hand, floating with the fresh scent of the owner's body.

This was Xu Xu Yue wearing clothes when she came to the hotel yesterday.

Lu Shicheng flinched for a moment, a little puzzled and as if she had realized something.

Then Xu Ziyue's voice rang in her ears again, cold but with a gentle edge, "Put on my jacket before you go."

Puff, puff.

The deer that had intruded into Natalie Lu's heart when she had just woken up was raging wildly inside, raising a light aroma.

Lu Shicheng felt strange.

Why would getting a jacket make her happier than a bonus point. :, .

The afternoon sun shines gently on the earth, and the late autumn leaves surround the chic Opera House, reflecting a bright golden color.

The dark and large concert hall was filled to capacity, and the only light was on the center stage in front.

The strings that had been tightened a second ago had tightened the sound of the concert hall, and brightly dressed teenagers with instruments in their hands exited the stage gracefully.

The next orchestra to take the stage was Nicco Lu's school's symphony orchestra.

According to the usual practice, Xu Jiyue, as the concertmaster, had to wait for the orchestra members to take their seats before going on stage alone.

Walking up from the backstage to the principal's position didn't seem too far from the audience.

But in reality, it was a long way from the side of the stage.

Hundreds of pairs of eyes were watching this side of the stage, and Natalie Lu was secretly watching the audience from the backstage side of the stage.

This was her first time experiencing such a thing, and she didn't know whether it was excitement or nervousness, her heartbeat had never calmed down since she had just followed the large group here to get ready.

As she watched her children enter the stage in an orderly manner, Teacher Chen, who was the conductor, walked over to Xu Xu Yue, who was waiting by the side, and once again said, "Can you do it by yourself? You don't need me to enter with you?"

"I can do it myself, Teacher." Xu Xu Jiyue nodded her head, and in her eyes stood the young girl still wearing her jacket.

She looked toward the stage with her pockets folded, her lips pursed together lightly, rarely speaking.

Suddenly, Xu Xu Yue felt that the surroundings were a bit quiet.

Natalie Lu was listening to Xu Jiyue's conversation with Mr. Chen, feeling as if this person would never be nervous, and her voice was as calm as ever.

As she watched the orchestra members gradually taking their seats on stage, the calm voice rang in her ears, "I remember when someone told me that I didn't need to walk over, just sit down."

Natalie Lu couldn't help but freeze for a moment.

She did remember her own words, and also remembered how she swore at that time, but she just didn't know why Xu Xu Yue would suddenly bring up this matter.

Was she blaming herself for going back on her word?

Natalie Lu listened to the quiet standby sound of the points system underneath the rustling noise, and looked uncertainly at Xu Ziyue.

When they met, Xu Ziyue's eyes were pure black in the dim light of the backstage.

Natalie couldn't see through what she was thinking, but somehow, she felt a bit of intentional teasing in her eyes at the moment.

But Nico felt that Xu Xu Yue would not be such a boring person.

Why would she tease herself?

It was also at this time that Teacher Chen's voice interrupted the two of them staring at each other: "Alright Xu Xu Yue, just walk over slowly."

"Good." Xu Xu Jiyue nodded her head and said that before withdrawing her line of sight.

The cello and bow were held lightly in her hands, her soft white skirt skimming over Lu Shicheng's feet as she walked towards the stage.

The light that hadn't had time to catch up with her fell on the crushed hair that hung to the side of her face, and no one noticed a hint of a hooked smile underneath.

Naughty, and a little insatiable.

Like a cat in a furtive, indiscernible mood, she was "suddenly" in a very good mood.

Quiet down the stage only left a young girl's footsteps, skirt skimming over the floor all the way to the light.

Natalie Lu watched Xu Xu Yue walk towards her position, her eyes a little more composed. As if interrupted for a moment by Xu Xu Yue's question just now, that rhythm-less heartbeat just inexplicably eased.

The judges didn't just look at the expression of the entire piece of music, as the leader of the orchestra, her performance was also something they took into consideration.

Xu Ziyue was holding more than just a cello, but also her future.

Stand still and bow.

The long black hair fell onto the young girl's chest as she leaned forward slightly, her slender neck and shoulders not bending a bit.

Like a swan, elegance was written in her unhurried movements.

The audience's applause then surged towards Xu Xu Yue like a wave, and the judges sitting in the center of the first row nodded at each other.

Teacher Chen exhaled lightly and said "steady" to Nichco, and then walked up to the conductor's podium after Xu Xu Jiyue had taken her seat.

The golden baton made a particularly conspicuous light under the light, and Xu Xu Jiyue pulled the strings with her arm.

The pure and clean sound of music traveled down to the audience, deep and full.

This wasn't the first time Lu Shicheng had heard this piece from the orchestra, but she was still amazed by the sound of Xu Ziyue's cello.

The orchestra's sound echoed across the well-pitched stage, colliding to create a greater resonance, and tiny bumps nearly crawled all over Natalie Lu's arms.

She gently rubbed it through her sleeve, as if she could still smell on it the smell that should have almost evaporated, belonging to Xu Xu Yue.

The clear and ethereal floating dots of fragrance, the light engulfed the images in the young girl's vision, and the only one left in her sight was Xu Zuoyue.

Long hair like seaweed hung down on the side of her face, floating slightly with the movements of her shoulders, neck and arms.

The raven-feather like eyelashes were slightly drooping, and the eyes that couldn't see the world didn't affect her ability to deliver her music, but instead made her expression even purer.

Unlike other schools where the chief is too prominent to be integrated into the collective, Xu Xu Yue is more than capable of assuming the position of chief as a leader.

Like a flock of white geese soaring between heaven and earth, commanding is their wind, while Xu Jiyue is the dominant leader.

The soft light fell on her skirt and arms, and as the bowstring moved, it drew out one cold white shadow after another.

The entire world was hers.

"The chief of this school is so beautiful."

"What's her name? What's her name?"

"I think it's called ...... Xu Xu Yue."

"A nice name."

......

Natalie Lu, as an uncredited member of the orchestra, was standing backstage watching from a close distance, when the students of the next band slowly gathered behind her, along with the sound of their rustling discussions.

Unsure if it was because Xu Xu Yue was involved, Natalie perked up her ears.

"This is that girls' high school in S City, right? The drums in the back are all girls."

"It's really not a lie that the girls' high school is full of beautiful girls."

"But there are so many pretty girls, I don't think they can compare to her."

"And do you hear her? She plays the piano beautifully."

"Yeah, yeah, it's great."

......

Of course then, she was Xu Xu Yue, the main character of this world.

Natalie Lu secretly spoke in her mind, pride in the corners of her eyes.

"It's like an octave box doll in the window, I want to own one so badly ......"

"Me too."

"Me too."

Me too.

Natalie Lu stood far in front of these little girls and once again secretly echoed in her mind.

Light struck the entire stage, and Xu Xuyue, surrounded by white gauze, shone in everyone's sight.

Lu Shicheng wanted to think that in this moment, everyone was the original owner and wanted to take this one back to their private stash.

But after a moment's pause, Lu Shicheng thought again.

She was the only one who was the original owner.

There was also only one Xu Xu Yue.

As the orchestra came to a close, the other orchestra behind Lu Shicheng entered a state of readiness.

Knowing that this side was the up position, and that not only would she not be able to pick up Xu Jiyue, but she would also be an obstacle, she walked towards the other side of the stage early and somewhat reluctantly.

The backstage was filled with busy staff, Lu Shicheng walked quickly through them, and when she circled around to the right side of the stage, she saw from afar three people whose styles didn't match with this place, but who looked exceptionally familiar.

Sung Mi Yeon had brought Lu Shi Ze and Lu Shi En!

Lu Shi En was the first one to find Lu Shi Nic, waving her hand and jumping while shouting, "Sister!"

Natalie was worried that her voice would reach the stage, so she covered her mouth and was a bit surprised: "Shien? Mom, brother ...... why are you guys here?"

"Because we have passes that can come in ah." Lu Shi En lifted up her neck with a tag that was similar to the one on Lu Shicheng's body, her tone was full of bragging, "It's me who got it, my brother and mom didn't even get it!"

"Yesterday's matter was dealt with last night, mom and Shi En had wanted to come see this band competition, so I drove the car and brought her here." Lu Shize added, his eyes filled with concern, "Nicco, are you hurt?"

"Of course I'm not." Lu Shicheng jumped in front of Lu Shize, showing off her healthy body, "Look, I can run and jump."

"Alright, alright." Lu Shize looked worried and stopped her, "No matter what, you can't go out so impulsively, what if that person has a murder weapon in his hand? What if the security guards they didn't get there that fast? In case ......"

Lu Shicheng knew that Lu Shize was preparing to give himself an ideological education, she really deeply experienced the horror of sister control, can make the Sven scum become flustered, busy saying: "I know brother, I just can't be angry, he said too hard to hear."

Then, she thought of Xu Xu Yue, worried that Lu Shize would credit Xu Xu Yue for her adventure, and explained again, helping her to choose her stem : "I think any other person would have done this, right, where is there such a bully."

"That's true." Cheng Meiyan recognized Lu Shichen's justice, but she was also uneasy in the same way as Lu Shize, "Nicco ah, next time you go out, you have to remember to bring two bodyguards, how can one bodyguard protect you and Ziyue at the same time."

"I know, mom." Lu Shicheng nodded and assured.

The backstage light that wasn't considered much brighter just lit up her vision, fitting squarely on these three people standing in front of her.

She talked to them, laughing and joking, and while the busy backstage was layered with the coolness of the fall day, she felt a warmth that she couldn't quite put her finger on.

It was as if this was family.

A few people were chatting like this when the music on stage came to an abrupt halt.

The orchestra performance of Natalie Lu's school had ended, and Xu Xu Jiyue was also the first to come off the stage as the chief.

Cheng Meiyan's eyesight was better than Lu Shicheng's, and she noticed Xu Ziyue coming off the stage from afar, quickly walking over and saying, "Ziyue!"

Xu Ziyue was a bit surprised: "Auntie."

"We came to see your performance." Cheng Meiyan's face was filled with smiles, "The performance was really good ah, auntie was mesmerized by it."

Xu Xu Jiyue was modest: "Thank you auntie."

"Auntie sees that you're in good shape today, it seems that yesterday's events didn't affect you." Cheng Meiyan said.

"Uh-huh." Xu Xu Yue nodded, her gaze falling on Lu Shicheng at the side, "Lu Shicheng appeared at the right time."

Listening, Cheng Meiyan couldn't help but look at Lu Shicheng with relief as well.

With that, she raised her hand to help Xu Jiyue straighten the long hair on the side of her face, seemingly sighing, "That's nice."

Only Lu Shiyan didn't really like such a warm moment between her mom and Xu Jiyue, raised the camera and tripod in her hand, and said to Lu Shiyan, who was looking at Xu Jiyue, "Sister, sister, let's take a group photo!"

Lu Shicheng was a bit surprised, she had never had these experiences before, taking pictures in such a place was a very strange thing for her.

But she still stood in the center under Cheng Meiyan's arrangement, then after Cheng Meiyan adjusted the camera countdown, Xu Ziyue was also arranged to her side.

The bare wrists were caught off guard against each other, and then abruptly separated.

A short but clear warmth.

"Five, four, three ......"

The camera's countdown light flashed in Natalie Lu's line of sight, and the surrounding area was filled with clamor.

She sniffed the scent of this jacket exactly like the one she was wearing that drifted in the wind, the warmth of Lu Shien's arm around her, and the shadow cast by Lu Shize standing behind her, and suddenly felt a sense of belonging that she had never felt before.

In this strange world that she only used as a temporary landing spot.

"2, 1......"

The flashing beep of the countdown came to an abrupt end, and a click of white light flashed across Lucius' eyes.

The sound of electricity cut through the brief, rapid incandescence and formed the sound of the Master System's briefing in her ears.

[Having detected the host destroying the creation of the protagonist's bond and not seeing any redeeming effects within twelve hours, the main system will punish the host by November 30th].

The main system's voice was as calm and monotonous as last time, sounding like a completely emotionless machine.

It just suddenly popped up in Natalie Lu's line of sight, and disappeared in an instant after displaying the full contents of the judgment.

Chu Chu drifted over in a somewhat dejected manner, his voice full of frustration compared to the last time: "I tried my best host, but the Master System rejected my complaint."

In fact, when QiuQiu didn't show up this afternoon, LuShiNicco realized where it had gone, and was prepared for the punishment.

It's just that she didn't expect that the Master System would choose this time to give her a notification, giving her a sudden blow in such a situation that she felt was very beautiful.

She had just felt a warmth and sense of belonging that she had never felt before, and suddenly she fell into an ice cellar.

It was as if the Master System was purposely reminding her that this world was just an unrealistic dream, and you shouldn't give too much emotion to it.

Natalie Lu's gaze paused for a moment, and then she asked calmly, "Then do you know what kind of punishment?"

"It should still be the same as last time." Qiuqiu replied, "The main system will, according to the wishes of the hosts, administer the right medicine for the hosts' violations ......."

When Natalie Lu heard Chu Chu's answer, she frowned slightly.

Only that she wasn't angry at the Master System for holding her weaknesses hostage, but rather, she spat out a bit off-topic, "You should update and refine your language library."

Without freaking out or giving up on herself, Natalie Lu just calmly reminded the spit.

QiuQiu felt a little bit of fear as she listened, flapping her wings and flying to the tip of her nose: "Host, what's wrong with you? I'm a bit scared ......"

Nicco looked at the little ball in front of her, probably also knew that she was too calm compared to the past, and couldn't help but laugh a little, her voice was more open: "What are you afraid of, don't you allow people to grow up? Didn't I say yesterday, what punishment I will accept is."

"Host ...... " Qiuqiu listened to this, the original emotionless body suddenly flooded with a few points of sourness, just like this awkwardly leaned on Lu Shicheng's face, like embracing her, "You're really not easy. "

"You know it's not easy for me, don't you know to help me inquire how long I'm going to be punished this time?" Natalie Lu asked in return.

"This I can deduce." Chu Chu immediately stated, "The Master System will set the time based on the severity of the violation, so Host, I think our punishment time this time might not be very optimistic."

"That's so." Lu Shicheng sniffed and his gaze sank a few more points.

Today was the penultimate day of November, and the day after tomorrow would be the thirtieth as notified by the Master System.

It was like a fish placed on a chopping board, not knowing on which day the executioner's knife would fall, and in which way it would pick off her legs.

As people came and went around, Lu Shi En's childish and clear voice reached Lu Shi Nico's ears.

Xu Jiyue was walking towards the backstage lounge with the support of Teacher Chen and Cheng Meiyan, making the noisy scene somewhat pure white and cozy.

She just looked at the picture in front of her, her raised eyes not blinking for a long time, as if she wanted to memorize every detail in her sight.

Scrambling, just as she had done in the original world.

And just as Natalie Lu was memorizing so much, Cheng Meiyan walked towards her who had fallen behind and carefully revealed to her, "Natalie, there's something fishy about this thing that happened to Pick Moon last night."

Lu Shicheng snapped back to her senses and turned her head to look at Cheng Meiyan, who had taken her arm on the side.

Compared to the expected punishment, Cheng Meiyan's "strange" was completely out of her range.

Cheng Meiyan didn't notice Lu Shichen's somewhat agitated reaction, and looked at Xu Xu Yue who was walking ahead with Mr. Chen, and Lu Shize who was educating Lu Shien, and whispered to her, "Your brother didn't let me tell you, but I think you still need to know, we judge that it's most likely that it's the Xu family's side who sent the people."

Lu Shi En frowned tightly, then it was like she understood something.

She also felt that the system wouldn't set up some deliberate plot for no reason and without logic, and if she linked the man's sneakiness yesterday afternoon to the Xu family, it would probably make sense.

He was looking for Xu Xu Yue's room.

The most obvious still was that it was clearly himself who had stood up for Xu Ziyue and taught that man a lesson at the time, but his brother had knocked on Xu Ziyue's door instead of his own.

"Because we're outside the province now, our family is less sheltered, so it's good for them to start?" Lu Shicheng speculated.

Cheng Meiyan nodded her head and carefully instructed, "In the next two days, you pay more attention here, I've brought all the bodyguards from home, don't think it's flashy to not bring them with you, your safety comes first now."

Lu Shicheng nodded his head, for some reason he felt that Cheng Meiyan's advice in the second half of this sentence was a bit strange.

And when she was just about to open her mouth to assure herself, she saw Cheng Meiyan's eyes suddenly staring at herself: "And ......"

Lu Shicheng's heart suddenly lifted.

She just stood against this beam of gaze from Cheng Meiyan, pretending to be calm: "What, what's wrong, mom?"

As they walked from the side of the stage to the backstage, the dim light slowly became brighter.

The woman's pitch-black pupils slowly rotated from top to bottom on Lu Shicheng's body, finally landing on her jacket.

Sung Mi Yeon laughed: "This is Pick Up Moon's clothes, right?"

Lu Shicheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but she couldn't help but be shocked for a moment.

She didn't know where Cheng Meiyan got her memory from to recognize that this was Xu Xu Yue's clothes.

The lights were bright, and a rich smile bloomed on the face of this magnificent beauty.

The curved eyes gleamed brightly, and there were a few moments of seriousness in the rakish snark.

Obviously, Natalie Lu knew that she and Xu Xu Yue hadn't done anything out of line yesterday, but she was still a bit weak for some reason.

Based on the principle of not wanting Cheng Meiyan to misunderstand, Lu Shicheng was busy explaining, "This is because I ran out in a hurry last night and didn't wear thick clothes, so Xu Ziyue lent me her clothes."

"Oh." Cheng Meiyan nodded, a look-at-me smile surfacing on her face.

With that, she raised her hand and placed her arm on Lu Shi Nic's shoulder, wrapping her arms around this daughter of hers, "In that case, our Xu Shengyue really does know how to repay her kindness."

It was only later that Lu Shicheng realized.

This matter of her wearing Xu Xu Yue's clothes was essentially a very ambiguous and intimate thing.

Xu Ziyue wouldn't wear other people's clothes and never lent them to others.

As evening approached, the sun hung over the foot of the mountains to the west, a fiery red color burning the sky.

The Opera House swarmed with bustling people, and sparrows flew up from the dead branches that weren't enough cover to cross the sky.

The first day of the symphony orchestra's competition came to a close, and the score of Lu Shicheng's school orchestra sat firmly in first place, already locked in for the top gold medal.

Teacher Chen was red-faced, in order to reward the orchestra members who had worked hard in rehearsals these days, she had booked a large box in a famous local restaurant, with more than twenty people, sitting at exactly two full tables.

Natalie Lu and Xu Ziyue arrived a little late, and there was only one seat left at the main table.

According to the band's contribution, Xu Ziyue was the most qualified person to sit at the main table, and everyone defaulted to her sitting here, only that Lu Shicheng would have to be separated from Xu Ziyue.

Lu Shicheng was often in the orchestra these days, so she got to know everyone a little bit better, and when several people saw this, they opened the door for her to move a chair and cutlery from the other table to give her an extra seat.

Originally, this matter would have ended here, one more person and one less is not a big deal.

But Sun Chenchen sat at the main table.

She had already settled her grudges with Lu Shi Nic, and was very dissatisfied to see her being given special care, and while arranging her hair, she asked with a sneer, "If you're not a member of the orchestra, why do you have to come to the main table?"

The statement was so offensive that it was like shutting Natalie Lu's entire being out of the symphony orchestra.

Xu Xu Jiyue clearly felt the arm she held in her hand stutter, and along with it, she frowned.

There was a momentary silence in the box, and then Chen Miao Miao, who was sitting at another table, let out a sneer and retorted, "What's not to like, if it wasn't for Lu Shicheng, would the chief of our orchestra be able to shine like this?"

Another clarinetist who was on good terms with her also nodded and said, "Yes, the score of our orchestra's principal is a lot higher than other orchestras, if not for this score, it's still not sure if we have this meal today, and I don't know if someone else can pull off such a score."

The meaning of these words was said in a subtle way, but the people in the orchestra understood it.

The trumpet player was not very good at concealing his emotions, pfft laughed out and said, "I think it might be someone else who can pull this much out of us."

Natalie Lu felt the defense from the others, and a lot of warmth flooded her heart.

However, the more this happened, the more Sun Chenchen didn't want to let go of Lu Shicheng, and opened her mouth to stop him, "Mr. Chen has already counted, according to the dishes ordered by twelve people at each table, isn't one more dish not enough to eat?"

Chen Miaomiao was not used to Sun Chenchen, her voice was not small at all, she muttered: "If you don't know, you think you are a starving ghost, how can one more person not be enough for her to eat?"

"That's it." Everyone echoed, and some even suggested to Sun Chenchen, "If you think you've eaten less, go sit over there, Teacher Chen is still an adult, and it's possible that you've eaten more than over there."

Sun Chenchen was already greedy for the main table, so it was impossible for him to give up his seat.

She originally wanted to make Lu Shicheng unhappy, but she didn't want to be disliked herself, and was dumbfounded.

And everyone didn't pay any more attention to Sun Chenchen, saying that they would still let Lu Shicheng bring Xu Xuyue over to sit with her.

Lu Shicheng didn't care that much about where to sit, and after all the fuss just now, she didn't really want to eat with Sun Chenchen at the same table.

It's just that the orchestra members were so enthusiastic to stand up for themselves, and when they turned around and sat at another table, wasn't that making Sun Chenchen happy and breaking other people's hearts?

Hesitating, Lu Shicheng felt her wrist being pulled and turned in the right direction.

Xu Xu Jiyue turned around and walked to the table opposite the main table, her voice calmly politely declining the members' invitation: "Everyone doesn't need to move the chairs for us, the doctor instructed me to protect my eyes for fear of seeing dirt that would affect my treatment."

"Hahaha."

Not being able to hold back, Chen Miao Miao laughed out.

She knew that Xu Xu Yue didn't like to talk much, but whenever she wanted to say something it would definitely be a hit and miss, making one's heart extraordinarily unpleasant.

"Yo, everyone's pretty much arrived here?"

The short interlude of farce had just ended when Teacher Chen arrived at the entrance of the box.

She looked at the students who had almost arrived and said to the waiter behind her, "You can serve the food now."

"Okay." The waiter nodded slightly and was about to close the door, followed by the last few orchestra members arriving at the door, "Teacher Chen, we're late."

"No, just in time." Teacher Chen stroked the heads of a few young girls and headed towards the box.

And right at this time, Teacher Chen heard a familiar cold and light call, "Teacher Chen."

It was Xu Xu Yue greeting her.

Teacher Chen stopped her steps and looked at Xu Ziyue sitting at the table with fewer people, not caring about Sun Chenchen's so-called main table, she sat straight to Xu Ziyue's side.

"Haha." Another uncontrolled laugh, Chen Miaomiao was caught by Teacher Chen: "Miaomiao, what makes you so happy?"

"Nothing, it's just that I'm happy to see teacher coming over." Chen Miaomiao's usual sweet mouth, her words changed and added: "There is indeed a quite interesting thing."

Teacher Chen was in a good mood, and was extra curious about all kinds of things her students said: "What is it, tell me about it?"

Chen Miao Miao glanced at Xu Xu Yue, and then at Sun Chen Chen at the opposite table, her voice was extraordinarily clear and crisp: "It's that you see, everyone's table is the same, the dishes are the same, wherever the teacher sits, that's the main table."

Teacher Chen, however, didn't find this to be anything interesting, his expression was a bit stern as he educated, "What's the main table or not, little kid, how did you learn bureaucracy."

Chen Miao Miao immediately and immediately showed a serious and vain look and assured, "I'm wrong Mr. Chen, I shouldn't have taken this so seriously, I won't in the future."

"That's more like it." Seeing Chen Miao Miao's good attitude in admitting her mistake, Teacher Chen didn't pursue her any further.

While the two of them were talking here, the dishes ordered were put on the table in duplicate by the waiter.

Amidst the aroma, Lu Shicheng saw that Sun Chenchen's face was even uglier than the unreadable abstract painting hanging on the wall, and she inevitably felt some pleasure in her heart.

She knew that there was no pure pure land in the world, but she thought that at least in this moment this orchestra was her pure land.

She was thankful to these people in the orchestra for defending themselves, and she also thanked Chen Miao Miao for a square meal of explicit and implicit output.

The wind from the central air conditioning swept warmly over Lu Shicheng's arm, slowly coaxing up the warmth that remained on it.

She guessed that the person she should thank the most was Xu Xu Yue.

So Natalie Lu picked up one of the chicken legs that Qiuqiu had been aiming at, and put it on Xu Xu Yue's plate in the midst of its eager anticipation: "Try it, it smells delicious."

The young girl's smile was a bit over the top, as if she had brought a bit of deliberate flattery with her.

Xu Jiyue wasn't very interested in flattery or chicken legs, she just held her chopsticks and looked at Lu Shicheng, but noticed that the dark eyes were looking at her with a smile.

After a pause, she still accepted Lu Shicheng's feeding.

Chu Chu was very dissatisfied and retreated to hold over one of the small crab legs that Natalie Lu had set aside for her.

Although its host was less than honorable, it still drifted to Lu Shicheng's ear over what had just happened and comforted her, "Host these are all passing clouds, when you have gained eternal life and seen more of the world's conditions, these will be nothing, don't take it to heart."

These words made Lu Shicheng think again of this afternoon's briefing from the Master System.

In fact, for the Lord God, there was no difference between her and a system like Chu Chu, if their system was intelligent to the point that it could completely simulate a replacement for a human being, they probably wouldn't need the existence of a host like her.

And the reason why people couldn't be replaced by mechanical systems was because they had feelings.

This kind of thing came from the heart and could not be simulated by program codes at all.

Lu Shicheng looked at the box that was talking and laughing at the moment, and his obscure gaze contained tenderness.

Some people read campus literature to reminisce about their youth and make up for their regrettable past.

Lu Shicheng, on the other hand, watched these to fill his own void.

Only now did she realize that the atmosphere she was immersed in at the moment was something she could never feel no matter how many books she read.

But it was in this world.

This world that she had temporarily used as a landing spot, or even a stepping stone.

Not being able to describe this kind of feeling, Lu Shicheng watched Chu Chu eat the crab legs with vigor, and helped him clip several more crabs onto his plate.

Just so no one could tell, she only gave Chu two of the meatiest front legs of a crab, and she pretended to enjoy the rest alone.

Mr. Chen ordered quite a few famous local dishes, including a braised beef dish that Aunt Sun had never even made.

Natalie Lu likes to eat when she is in a bad mood, and she poured several spoons of braised beef onto her rice, mixing it with soup to make a bibimbap.

But she didn't notice that both the crab that Qiuqiu ate and the beef that she ate were spiked with wine.

I don't know if it was because she was in a bad mood or because the effect of mixing the two types of wine was doubled, but slowly she began to feel the people in her vision swaying.

Darkness fell, the dishes were exhausted, and this early celebration came to an end.

Mr. Chen looked at the time and prepared to organize the orchestra members to go back to the hotel, and everyone just got up in twos and threes to leave the table.

Xu Xu Yue sat on a chair and watched the people in the box almost leave, also ready to get up.

Just as she was about to place her hand on Lu Shicheng's arm, a heavy pressure came from her shoulder.

Lu Shicheng's face turned red, and she leaned on Xu Ziyue's shoulder, vaguely telling her, "Xu Ziyue, I hate this world so much."

The surroundings were quiet, and the monotonous lights of the box lay flat in Xu Jiyue's line of sight.

Natalie Lu's voice was slurred, lightly tainted with alcohol, and her words were a bit downcast and misanthropic.

Xu Jiyue didn't really understand why Natalie had suddenly said such things, as far as she was concerned, the day had gone well.

Just because she didn't understand didn't mean she would ignore it, Xu Jiyue was bearing half of Natalie's body weight on one shoulder, as if she could feel her sadness.

Xu Jiyue gazed at the blurry shadow in the afterglow and asked in a faint voice, "Why do you hate it."

This body of Lu Shicheng's tolerance for alcohol was simply low to the limit, just a few drops of two different kinds of alcohol mixed together, she lost her ability to fight, even her head was not sober, to the people she trusted was to ask questions and answer them, "Because the people in this world are too nice."

"Good?" Xu Xu Yue was puzzled.

"Not good." Lu Shicheng shook his head.

That thick, long hair rubbed against Xu Jiyue's shoulders and neck with a beat, tickling her a little.

The doubt in Xu Jiyue's eyes intensified, and she asked, "Why?"

"Because then I will always remember you." Natalie Lu slightly lifted up her head that was leaning on Xu Ziyue's shoulder, her eyes somewhat sincere, "No one can forget the first time."

As if there were many questions hovering in Xu Jiyue's mind, she asked again, "What first time?"

Natalie Lu was asked a number of questions, not even realizing that Xu Xu Yue's questions were a bit too many, so she broke up her fingers, childishly and seriously counted: "The first time I felt the warmth of my family, the first time someone cared about me, the first time a group of people were willing to defend me ...... "

Saying this, Lu Shicheng paused for a moment.

She raised her head to look at Xu Ziyue who was sitting beside her, and then recklessly held her hand in Xu Ziyue's hand and said, "And the first time I was a guide stick for someone."

The young girl giggled twice as she said this, and then like a dog begging for praise, she wagged her tail and asked, "Xu Ziyue, this guide stick of mine is not bad, right?"

Xu Jiyue had never thought that a young lady like Lu Shicheng would willingly describe herself as a "guide stick", but her hand was holding her hotly, reminding her that what she had just said was true.

The warm hand seemed a little hard, but in fact the strength was gentle, just as it had been in the past.

After a moment's pause, Xu Xu Yue nodded: "Well, you've done a good job."

Lu Shicheng was satisfied to hear this affirmative comment from Xu Xuyue, and the smile on her face grew even more intense.

She laughed again, her unsteady body leaning back on Xu Xu Yue's shoulder.

The wine-stained breath ruffled the broken hair hanging by the young girl's ear, the crisp syllables vibrating against her eardrums.

If we're talking about "the first time", this was also the first time Xu Jiyue had ever felt another person's joy in an incomparably real way.

Obviously, this joy did not belong to her, but it seemed to belong to her.

The corners of her mouth rose uncontrollably.

"You know, in the past, it was all other people who took care of me, they thought I couldn't do anything and wouldn't let me do anything." Lu Shicheng was recognized, as if she had opened up her words, leaning on Xu Xu Yue's shoulder as she spoke about herself, "But you see, I can still do it, right, it's reliable, isn't it?"

Xu Xu Jiyue was a little puzzled by Lu Shicheng's previous words, but then she corresponded to the two large suitcases that Aunt Sun had packed for them.

She couldn't deny the reliability that Lu Shi Nicco brought to her these days, and nodded her head: "Yes."

It was just that Xu Xu Yue thought that this nod of hers would make Lu Shicheng happier, but she realized that Lu Shicheng suddenly changed her face after this.

The weight on her shoulders disappeared once more, and the light painted Xu Jiyue's vision with a layer of brightness, then was covered by a shadow.

The scent of roses skimmed the tip of Xu Jiyue's nose like the wind, and without anticipation, the distance between her and Lu Shicheng was suddenly drawn very close.

Xu Jiyue's ever-so-calm eyes widened in a circle, and reflected in her dark pupils was Lu Shichenco's face as she slammed into him.

Just a little bit closer, the tips of their noses were about to collide.

Or maybe they had already collided.

Flop, flop ......

The warm breath was baked even hotter by the air conditioner, and Xu Xu Yue's unreadable silhouette became clear because of the single magnification.

The person in front of her was still the same as she remembered, and underneath the thick eyelashes were a pair of eyes with some sharpness, only at this moment there was also some defiantly pathetic look.

Lu Shicheng staggered, her gaze struggling to meet Xu Xu Yue's in earnest.

She was a little aggravated and asked vaguely, "Then why don't you give me extra points ah ...... why do you always deduct points from me ah ......"

"Extra points?" Xu Xu Yue's mind hadn't calmed down from the sudden closeness, so much so that she didn't understand the meaning of Lu Shi Nico's words, and thought that she was agonizing over the physics exercises that she had corrected for her, "You didn't do it perfectly enough, so how can I give you extra points?"

When Lu Shicheng heard this explanation, she became even more upset, and the anguish she had hidden in her heart revealed itself on her face, "How am I going to do it to be perfect, what am I going to do to make you really like it?"

Thud.

Dang.

The smell of roses wafted through the monotonous space, overpowering the aroma of the leftovers on the table.

Not knowing if the young girl's eyes were too sincere, or if the too-close distance could color any sentence with a burning ambiguity, Xu Xu Yue's heart missed half a beat.

She suddenly realized that Lu Shicheng's "plus points" and "minus points" didn't seem to be a simple number that existed in reality.

It wasn't physics.

It was the points she had earned by trying so hard to please herself.

"Why do you want those points so badly?" Ghostly, Xu Xu Yue pursued the question.

"Because only with enough points will I be able to find a place just like this one in the future." Lu Shicheng said.

With that, she circled back around: "I don't like this world, this world is too annoying ......"

Lu Shicheng's words turned quickly, and if one didn't listen carefully, no one would have lingered on her vague first sentence.

It was only a pity that the person beside her was Xu Xu Yue.

From hearing the "first time" in Natalie Lu's mouth, to hearing the "plus points" and "minus points" in her mouth, as well as the drunken conversation on her birthday not long ago, Xu Jiyue's originally exceptionally calm eyes narrowed slightly.

It was as if something that had barely been built up had been overturned in her heart, and then something had been quickly built up, rising out of the ground.

She had lost something, yet she had also gained something.

It was just that the weight of gain and loss didn't seem to be as even as it should have been, leaving her squarely stuttering heart violently empty for a moment.

Xu Xu Yue's mind suddenly became a bit complicated, but the expression on her face was calmer than ever, and she asked Lu Shicheng again, "So you've been to other places, right?"

Her eyes were not capable of revealing any emotions, and not many people could tell what she was up to at the moment with her calm appearance, not to mention the drunken Lu Shicheng.

Natalie shook her little head seriously, her eyes were heavy with a little bit of alcohol just like this, gazing at the person in front of her, word by word: "The world with you, is my first world."

As if he had said something that he liked very much, the smile on Natalie Lu's face became even more intense.

She turned her body slightly, looking seriously at the person she particularly liked outside of the book, and spoke as if confessing, "Being able to meet you is the happiest thing in my life."

"Xu Xu Yue."

The young girl's voice wasn't clear, containing some breath sounds.

It was like a murmur in her ear, the hot air just swooning between the two of them, and Xu Xu Yue's ears thumped with a soft call to her name.

In a flash, it was like a ten thousand feet of warm wind blowing through Xu Jiyue's barren heart, shaking the shoots called jealousy into disarray.

She felt like she was riding a roller coaster at the moment, going up and down, as if she was about to head for the distant clouds.

Some swayed.

It was precisely because of this that Xu Xu Yue didn't control the swaying Lu Shicheng.

She just leaned on her shoulder, the chiffon material couldn't hold up the young girl's face, and slowly slowly slowly, a slip, just like that, she fell directly into her lap.

Compared to the somewhat hard shoulder she was leaning on, Lu Shicheng preferred this soft "pillow" that allowed her to lie down.

Perhaps out of his own obsession, Lu Shicheng's vacant vision gradually focused on the pair of legs that were hanging down, and his sleepy eyes were filled with the appreciation of a treasured treasure: "Xu Xu Yue, your legs are so beautiful and soft. ......"

The young girl's spit fell on Xu Xu Yue's jeans along with her words, falling warmly on her legs through the gaps in the fabric.

Chanting, that soft little face started rubbing around on it, more than just an offense could be summarized.

Xu Xu Jiyue narrowed her eyes slightly, her brows furrowing slightly.

She really didn't like having any close contact with people much less that somewhat frivolous sounding word.

If it was still the past, she would have skimmed her legs and slammed this coveted Lu Shicheng directly to the ground.

But now ......

She was Lu Shicheng.

Doubt intertwined with open-mindedness, like a vine that suddenly grew, instantly crawling all over Xu Xu Yue's eyes.

She opened her mouth, wanting to open it to ask Lu Shicheng something more, but she suddenly felt a tugging sensation.

This feeling was somewhat unfamiliar, yet déjà vu, carrying an irresistible force.

Then Xu Xu Yue felt a wind blowing from the doorway, and noisy voices poured in with it.

The door of the box was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and an unfamiliar silhouette stood in the doorway, somewhat puzzled and stunned: "Miss Xu?"

It was Shen Yanxing.

Xu Xu Jiyue didn't know how she had sensed the identity of the person standing at the door all of a sudden, it was clear that they had only had a brief contact yesterday.

But she still opened her mouth and called out, "Shen Yanxing?"

"It's me." Shen Yanxing nodded her head.

There seemed to be some confusion in her gaze, looking at the empty box with the leftovers on the table, she awkwardly explained, "I ...... seem to have found the wrong room."

"It is." Xu Xu Jiyue said in a faint voice, with a somewhat unseen sense of distance.

A few words back and forth ended, and the atmosphere between the two just chilled out, just like how books sometimes make readers feel.

Shen Yanxing pursed her lips lightly, and didn't know where the s**t came from, as if striking up a conversation, she said to Xu Xu Yue, "I watched your performance this afternoon, it was really good, it's great that the cello wasn't damaged."

Xu Xu Jiyue remained nonchalant:Â "And thanks to you for helping to check it yesterday."

Shen Yanxing waved his hand: "No need."

Despite chatting about other things, there was still no progress between these two, and the atmosphere was the coldness of an ordinary stranger.

Not knowing if it was really the temperature of the box that dropped after opening the door, or if the atmosphere between these two people was too cold, Lu Shicheng just lay on Xu Xu Yue's lap, half-asleep, half-awake, scrunched her neck, and murmured: "October, cold ......"

Xu Xu Jiyue's eyes stuttered violently.

She didn't know if Lu Shicheng's voice was too vague she had misheard, or if she just hadn't called out her surname.

That feeling of her heart missing a beat inexplicably and as if extraordinarily obediently clicked on her heart with a thump.

Shen Yanxing also heard this murmured words, at once noticed Lu Shicheng who was hiding behind the dining table and lying flat on Xu Xu Jiyue, the foot that was originally going to be lifted up inexplicably put back down: "That, Lu Shicheng what's wrong with this ......"

"She's sleepy." Xu Jiyue replied, she did not want the matter of Lu Shicheng being drunk to be known by a third person.

Especially Shen Yanxing.

"Do you want me to help? I just called a cab and can take you back." Shen Yanxing took the initiative.

"No-"

Before the words could be uttered, the originally coherent syllables shattered in Xu Xu Yue's vocal cords.

She suddenly felt a force manipulating her to agree to Shen Yanxing's invitation and abandon Lu Shicheng in this place.

Because of the loss of vision, Xu Shiyue's perception of other aspects is always sharper than that of other normal people.

She could faintly feel that something was stuck in her throat, making it impossible for her to pronounce the syllables, and then a thought that was not part of her thoughts at the moment flashed into her mind.

If the feeling that the body's meridians were blocked last time passed by in a flash, this time Xu Shiyue felt it particularly obvious.

She didn't understand where this strange feeling came from when she faced Shen Yanxing, but she was sure that it was different from the blockage and jealousy she had towards the people around Lu Shizhen before.

She is not jealous of Shen Yanxing, and she is not even interested in her.

If she was abandoned in this place by herself, she might have agreed to Shen Yanxing.

But she is not alone now.

The real weight fell on her legs with a slight smell of alcohol, and the even breath conveyed warmth to her through the cloth.

Xu Shiyue lowered her eyes and looked at the girl who seemed to be curling up a little because of the cold. She didn't want to abandon her like this.

"No -" Xu Shiyue tried to reject Shen Yanxing for the second time, but was still blocked by the obstruction.

The brows covered by broken hair frowned slightly. Xu Shiyue just paused and did not fight against this feeling.

She just looked up at the bodyguard standing outside the door, and then changed her approach: "Li.

"The bodyguard heard the sound and immediately walked in: "Ms. Xu.

"Where is the car that brought us parked?" Xu Shiyue asked.

"PARKING LOT.

"The bodyguard surnamed Li replied, and asked with extra discernment: "Do you need me to ask the driver to drive over?" Xu Shiyue's vocal cords trembled slightly, and she nodded to the bodyguard without being stopped: "Yes. .

"The conversation between the two did not go behind Shen Yanxing's back. She just watched the bodyguard leave as if she understood what Xu Shiyue meant.

At the same time, that force seemed to realize that Xu Shiyue had used a roundabout strategy to trick it, and suddenly became a little angry.

Xu Shiyue felt a slight numbness in her calves and arms, and fumbled to complete the action of getting up alone and abandoning Lu Shizhen.

/>In "correct".

"Are you leaving?" As if she felt some movement in the leg she was resting on, Lu Shizhen dimly opened her half-asleep eyes and asked drowsily.

The voice was not clear, but it reached Xu Shiyue's ears exceptionally clear.

The girl who had been resting on her lap reappeared in her eyes, and the smell of wine mixed with the smell of roses floated into her nostrils.

Xu Shiyue was pulled back as if she had hit some safe word.

Those cold eyes contained a rare warmth, and he said to Lu Shizhen in a low voice: "Wait a moment.

"Xu Shiyue's voice was as calm as Lu Shizhen's impression, but there was a hint of force.

It's disgust, it's resistance.

Xu Shiyue has never been someone who is willing to be controlled, even if it is her body that is controlling her at the moment.

She doesn't want to.

Even if the numbness gradually blocked the blood circulation in her entire arm, she was unwilling to do so.

Maybe the system doesn't even know what kind of paradox it has created, or maybe they are always confident that they can control the paradox.

They want Xu Shiyue to be tortured and completely transformed into a black moonlight that blocks people from killing people and God blocks from killing gods, but they also want to control her and ask her to obey their orders.

Perhaps they have succeeded many times in thousands of worlds, but Xu Shiyue is not one of them.

From time to time, the open door of the private room could hear the noise in the corridor, and the cool breeze coming in was very lively.

But even in such a scene, there is an undercurrent surging, and there is no sign of it, but the tension has reached the extreme.

Xu Shiyue didn't know what was wrong with her body, but that didn't stop her from trying to avoid the forbidden word in her heart.

After a short while, or maybe no more than two seconds, Xu Shiyue said to Shen Yanxing in a statement like a notice: "I just confirmed it, I'm sorry.

" As soon as the words fell, Xu Shiyue felt as if an out-of-control electric current rushed through her body. The chaotic pain after paralysis accumulated densely on her fingertips connected to her heart.

The moonscape outside the window swallowed up some bright lights, and Xu Shiyue's face reflected in the moonlight showed no change.

But Shen Yanxing's expression seemed to relax for a moment.

She didn't bother and said, "It doesn't matter.

Then I won't bother you.

""Um.

"Xu Shiyue nodded slightly.

In an instant, only the light from the corridor was left at the door, which was so bright and dazzling that it disrupted the original balanced light in the box.

Xu Shiyue looked at the empty door and said to the bodyguard standing outside, "Li, take off your coat.

"The bodyguard didn't understand what Miss Shen was going to do, and was surprised.

It's just that Xu Shiyue's deep voice was filled with a sense of oppression that even their young ladies did not have, and doubts could not be the reason for him to refuse to obey.

Without pausing, Li took off his coat neatly and handed it to Xu Shiyue's hands: "Miss Xu.

"Xu Shiyue took the coat and covered it with Lu Shizhen.

Her fingers passed over the thicker fabric and made a slight rubbing sound. Xu Shiyue followed her movements and looked at the person leaning on her legs, her eyes heavy, as if she was looking at a strange creature.

Xu Shiyue couldn't understand what she had just experienced.

The numbness in her hands and even her body disappeared instantly after she said those words, and she was as normal and calm as if nothing had happened.

So what happened just now? The light was bright, and Xu Shiyue frowned slightly in the shadows.

As she thought this, she felt the rustling movement on her legs.

Lu Shizhen felt the warmth and movement on her body, opened her eyes, and raised her head slightly in the direction of Xu Shiyue's line of sight.

Xu Shiyue saw the blurred eyes flashing silently in her sight, and asked, "Is it still cold?" Lu Shizhen shook his head and looked at Xu Shiyue in confusion.

The mix of sleepiness and alcohol made her voice a little slurred: "Why don't you walk with Shen Yan?" "Are you looking forward to me walking with Shen Yan?" Xu Shiyue asked quietly.

Lu Shizhen shook his head first, and then nodded.

After a pause, she somehow changed her mind again and shook her head at Xu Shiyue.

Like a little robot stuck in a programmed disorder.

Xu Shiyue narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the girl in her sight who had clearly demonstrated her contradictions without even saying anything.

She just naturally dropped her hand on Lu Shizhen's body and sneered: "Lu Shizhen, is this question so difficult for you?" As soon as the words fell, this "little robot" was completely stuck. .

Xu Shiyue smiled softly, but her cool voice made her mood a little unpredictable.

Lu Shizhen, whose brain had been numbed by alcohol, was now left with only intuition and fatal tasks. For a moment, she didn't know how to answer Xu Shiyue's question, so she just blinked with a pitiful look on her face.

At this moment, Li walked in again and reminded: "Miss Xu, the car has arrived.

Xu Shiyue didn't have to let Lu Shizhen answer her. After hearing this, she let go of her questions to Lu Shizhen and said suddenly: "Forget it, you can come with me."

"As night falls, the hotel becomes more and more lively, and various noisy sounds are faintly transmitted into the corridor through the private rooms.

Lu Shizhen was carried out by the bodyguards, and she was still humming along with the impromptu chorus in a certain box.

"Forgive me for being such a wild and indulgent girl who loves freedom... I am also afraid that she will fall down one day -!! Ahem, Li Hang... everyone is so generous..." No one expected that he would look ten-year-old on weekdays. The all-powerful Miss Lu's Cantonese is so nonsense that it sounds a bit confusing to Li.

Xu Shiyue accepted it quickly and calmly got into the car while Lu Shizhen sang.

A car passed by in the distance, and the lights shone into the dim car. There seemed to be a smile on the corner of the man's mouth.

But the smile didn't last long before Lu Shizhen sang "I'll be afraid of you one day..." and lay down on her lap.

This caught Xu Shiyue a little off guard, and then she heard a vague voice from her legs: "You and I."

"Cantonese and Mandarin were mixed, and the originally vague voice was particularly clear in Xu Shiyue's ears.

She just looked at the head on her lap, and saw those eyes with a hint of smile in the dimness.

Dark and somewhat pure and sincere.

If she could see clearly, she must be reflected in it.

Thump, thump.

The moon was half covered by the drifting dark clouds, and Xu Shiyue's dark eyes were a bit panicked.

She just looked at this girl who would return to her "perverted" nature when she drank alcohol, and raised her hand to cover her face with her hair.

Xu Shiyue thought that with such a person and in such a state, she would answer whatever she asked.

Of course Xu Shiyue wanted to ask Lu Shizhen a lot, but she glanced at the Lu family driver sitting in front, and then at Lu Shizhen who was sleeping sleepily on her lap. The thin lips never opened again.

The evergreen trees outside the hotel were swaying in the night wind, and the car just started and went into the night.

Although the sunshine the next morning was not as good as yesterday, it was still bright and warm.

Lu Shizhen woke up from her sleep in a daze, feeling as if a piece of her brain was missing.

She still remembered that she seemed to be drunk again yesterday, but she was at a band party, so nothing would happen... Thinking of this, Lu Shizhen slowly opened her eyes.

The next second everyone froze.

The sunlight spread gently across the room, clearly outlining the girl's lowered eyes.

Xu Shiyue was sitting in front of her bed, with a white earphone exposed under her black hair, looking at her phone calmly.

How is this going? Lu Shizhen's head was full of questions, and then Xu Shiyue noticed her movement: "Are you awake?" "Yes.

"Lu Shizhen nodded, "Are you... reading a book?" "Miaomiao recommended some good novels to me.

Xu Shiyue replied, with a somewhat approving tone, "I originally wanted to adjust it, but now I feel that some online novels are really good."

"Lu Shizhen didn't expect Xu Shiyue to be interested in novels, and was a little surprised.

In addition, since she came to this world, she has never had time to read novels, so Xu Shiyue mentioned it, which made her feel a little itchy.

She didn't know if the novels in this world were very different from her original world. If Xu Shiyue thought they were good, she would read some.

"What are these articles?" Lu Shizhen asked curiously.

Xu Shiyue seemed to be happy to share it with Lu Shizhen. After hearing this, she exited the reading interface and touched the cover.

The sunlight fell on her calm eyes, with a somewhat unhurried flavor: "Some... written texts through the book system.

"

Xu Shiyue introduced Lu Shizhen quietly, and her calm voice gave people a feeling of déjà vu.

And this kind of déjà vu is not just superficial familiarity, but the horror of overlapping memories from the recent past.

Lu Shizhen still remembered the last time she had such a conversation with Xu Shiyue. It was in the car. Xu Shiyue introduced to herself the classic psychology book called "Twenty-Four Billys". The changes in the coming days are meaningful.

But when she said that, Lu Shizhen was thankful to Qiuqiu that she didn't think about the system document.

But who knew that in less than a month, she would open the system document.

Did she notice something? Lu Shizhen was startled in her heart and looked straight at Xu Shiyue who was sitting beside her bed. Her mind was filled with an urgent review of what happened when she was drunk yesterday.

Restart.

Restart failed.

Restart.

Restart failed.

"..." Lu Shizhen sadly discovered that she had forgotten what happened last night.

She didn't remember what she said to Xu Shiyue, nor how she was taken back to the room.

It's like a vast expanse of pure white covered with heavy snow.

Or you may have played the game all night and found that you forgot to save it.

Lu Shizhen's eyes were dull and her heart was beating very fast.

She just looked at Xu Shiyue sitting in front of her. In order to prevent her from seeing what was wrong with her words, she pretended to be calm and asked: "System text? Why do you think of listening to this kind of novel?" ?" Xu Shiyue raised her eyes and glanced at Lu Shizhen, and asked meaningfully: "Then what type of novels do you think I should read?" Lu Shizhen was stunned for a moment when asked.

She felt that people like Xu Shiyue did not look like people who could read online novels. How could a powerful figure like her have the time to read novels? Her life was just a cool novel.

After a pause, Lu Shizhen asked, "Infinite flow?" Xu Shiyue's eyebrows relaxed, and she took the earphones out of her ears: "This sounds interesting.

"Do you have any recommendations?" Lu Shizhen couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xu Shiyue ask herself.

She thought that since Xu Shiyue said this, he might simply be interested in novels, and then Chen Miaomiao accidentally recommended the system novel to her. After all, novels with some fantasy elements are quite popular.

Although Lu Shizhen has always thought that unlimited flow novels are weird and scary, and she lives in a ward where unlimited flow occurs frequently, so she has never dared to get involved in this field, but now for her, system novels are much scarier than unlimited flow. ! Even if Xu Shiyue just opened this type of book out of curiosity, if she reads too much and realizes that her changes are like the protagonist in the novel, and then realizes that she is the protagonist controlled by the system, then this I'm afraid the world is really going to collapse.

How could a beautiful girl like Xu Shiyue tolerate being a puppet? Unless the main system is overturned, it doesn’t deserve to be called Black Moonlight.

Thinking of this, Lu Shizhen nodded, and showed a strong enthusiasm for providing convenience to others: "Of course, I like unlimited novels.

"When we go back, I will prepare a reading list for you. I guarantee you that they will all be classic and beautiful unlimited novels."

Xu Shiyue tapped the screen of her phone with her fingers, and exited the novel interface while Lu Shizhen was speaking.

The sunlight added two points of light to her slightly drooped eyes, and a smile seemed to appear in the darkness, looking a bit gentle and polite: "Okay, that's troublesome.

"What's this?"

Lu Shizhen breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hands in a free and easy voice.

But underneath there is a guilty conscience.

She has not been very courageous since she was a child, but she has an extraordinarily rich imagination.

Those infinitely fluent horror scenes would kill her just by imagining them.

She really gave too much to this world... "Dangdang.

"Just when Lu Shizhen was crying in her heart that her life was miserable, someone knocked on the door from outside.

Chen Miaomiao opened the door with the room key card and carried breakfast for three people in her hand: "Shiyue, I made you and Shi Zhen two portions of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, as well as golden cakes, all of which are still hot.

Is Shi Zhen awake? I just passed by the hall and saw the car packed by Teacher Chen coming.

""Thanks.

"Xu Shiyue said, "Lu Shizhen is already awake.

"Chen Miaomiao waved her hand, "You're just too polite.

Then she looked at Lu Shizhen, who was still lying on the bed, and asked, "Hey, Shizhen, why don't you get up when you wake up? Aren't you going to the planetarium with us?" Lu Shizhen was stunned for a moment, drunk. The memory of the past barely floated into her head.

She vaguely remembered that during the dinner last night, Teacher Chen told everyone that the award ceremony was on Monday morning and that there was nothing to do today. She wanted to take everyone to visit the newly built planetarium here today. That planetarium is currently the largest planetarium in the country. What can be seen? Less good stuff.

Lu Shizhen had missed many opportunities to broaden her horizons due to physical reasons. How could she not go to such a thing.

"I'm going to change clothes right now and have breakfast in the car!" After saying that, Lu Shizhen immediately got up from the bed.

But he didn't want to be pinned down by a sudden hand.

It's Xu Shiyue.

Lu Shizhen was puzzled, but she saw Xu Shiyue tucking the quilt around her waist.

The slender fingertips seemed to be in contact with the girl's exposed thigh for a second, feeling a little cool: "If you want to change clothes, you have to wait a moment. Miaomiao and I will go out first."

After saying that, Xu Shiyue stood up and took away Chen Miaomiao, who was eating gold cakes with great interest.

Lu Shizhen was left sitting on the bed with a face full of embarrassment.

The bright light fell on the valuable silent carpet in the corridor, and the surroundings were quiet.

Chen Miaomiao followed Xu Shiyue out of Lu Shizhen's room. Not only was she not annoyed, but she was also smiling: "Shiyue, are you protecting your wife?" Xu Shiyue glanced sideways at Chen Miaomiao and ignored her teasing words.

Chen Miaomiao pursed her lips, and then continued: "Shiyue, how about the novels I recommended to you, are they good?" This time Xu Shiyue paid attention to Chen Miaomiao and nodded: "Yes, not bad.

"But I'm really curious. You weren't even interested when I recommended it to you in the past. Why do you want to read it so much this morning?"

"Chen Miaomiao leaned against the wall and turned to face Xu Shiyue at the side as she spoke, "You also specifically asked me to share with you the kind of fantasy that's a little bit fantasy.

""curious.

”Xu Shiyue’s answer was extremely simple.

"Curious?" Chen Miaomiao repeated, and then the confusion on her face slowly turned into joy.

She felt that her usual subtlety must have shaken Xu Shiyue's stone heart, and she was very happy. She patted her chest and promised, "Then you can come to me and I will answer all your questions.

"Xu Shiyue paused for a moment, then nodded: "Okay.

"The slightly drooped eyelashes blocked her eyes, and the light from the corridor could not penetrate even half of it.

She thought that there were indeed some things that needed help from Chen Miaomiao, who had been on a certain green website for many years.

The sun came out from the clouds and was a little dazzling.

Lu Shizhen sat by the window and squinted her eyes under the light.

She was holding a portion of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, and Qiuqiu was also resting on her shoulder, holding a small piece of golden cake.

Each person lowered his head in unison and took a bite of what was in his hand, and then let out a long sigh.

"Were you drunk yesterday?" Lu Shizhen asked, looking at Qiuqiu who didn't float out until she was attracted by the food.

"Well..." Qiuqiu looked like she was still hungover, looking a little shaken. "I checked the information and found that the paralysis of alcohol also affects the system. Because the host and the body are combined in a late stage, they are not resistant to this kind of thing. The degree of acceptance is also low.

"So that's it..." Lu Shizhen cursed in his heart.

Then she remembered what happened this morning and said, "Qiuqiu, can you show me the system records from last night? I don't seem to remember anything.

"I still want to tell the host."

Qiuqiu said and flew carefully to Lu Shizhen's ear. "The system suddenly experienced a disorder last night. It was down and stuck. There are no records of that time period. The main system is still investigating.

"Ah? Isn't your system very strong and stable? How could it malfunction?" Lu Shizhen was extremely puzzled. Then she seemed to remember something and looked at the small ball beside her that was emitting a faint light. " Is it because you drank the wine..." "Shhhhhhhhhh! It's nothing!" Qiuqiu was shocked and stopped Lu Shizhen before she could say this.

"Host, the main system hasn't found out the cause yet. Don't cause trouble for me like this! Last time I neglected my duty, I deducted a month's salary. I'm still feeling very sad.

Hearing this, Lu Shizhen looked at Qiuqiu with an expression of "Can you blame me?"

Upon seeing this, Qiuqiu immediately said: "Host, aren't you worried that you did something illegal to Xu Shiyue in the record that was lost in the system yesterday? Has the system warned you?" "What if you are recorded again?" Warning punishment, that is two warnings, and the combined execution will become very serious!" Qiuqiu's tone was very serious, and Lu Shizhen couldn't help but pause.

She was really unsure about Xu Shiyue's performance this morning.

Seeing Lu Shizhen's hesitation, Qiuqiu increased the temptation and gave examples to persuade Lu Shizhen to join the group: "The main system will not think about such a thing artificially. Think about it, how can such a powerful person do it?" Chaosing the system?" "Actually, host, you don't know, if some asteroid passes by and affects the magnetic field, or the world collapses, it may affect the systems of nearby worlds.

Moreover, it is generally difficult for the main system to troubleshoot an incident like this. It is very likely that the record will be cleared in the end and the matter will be settled.

"Since the monitoring content was missing due to internal fluctuations in the system, and you and I were not warned or punished, then why don't we just go with the flow and just pretend that we don't know anything and stop causing trouble for ourselves."

Lu Shizhen heard what Qiuqiu said was very reasonable. For the sake of his legs, he immediately made a zipper movement with his mouth to Qiuqiu.

Having reached a consensus on one person's unification, Qiuqiu looked at the world outside the window, and then said to Lu Shizhen: "And host, I will leave you for a while and go to the main system to find out the information. Do you have Remember to call me if anything happens.

""good.

" Lu Shizhen nodded, raised his fingers and scratched Qiuqiu's belly, "Thank you for your hard work.

Qiuqiu felt comfortable being scratched, so she moved closer to the gold cake in Lu Shizhen's hand and rubbed her hands together: "Then give me another gold cake, okay?"

Lu Shizhen was extra generous this time and broke off a big piece for Qiuqiu as a reward for his hard work.

The autumn day is rustling, and the warm sunlight falls on the planetarium. The semi-arc roof looks like the Milky Way carrying vast stardust.

Looking at it from a distance, there was a sigh in the bus.

The planetarium was completed at the beginning of the year and is currently being operated and debugged internally, but has not yet been officially opened to the public.

No matter how the band performs this time, Teacher Chen plans to reward everyone. He made a good connection a month in advance and made an appointment for the group visit, just waiting for today.

This museum is known as the largest in the country, and the moment Lu Shizhen entered the museum, she felt as if the world was vast.

Various technological means, galaxies and planets floating in the hall surrounded her sight, which was eye-opening.

Everyone was marveling at what they saw. Lu Shizhen looked at Xu Shiyue who put her hand on her wrist. Not wanting her to be lonely, she took the initiative to describe everything she saw to her: "These things in your sight The bright lights are all stars, they should be 3D projections, right? Then what is in front of you is your constellation, Scorpio, you look like a bent "T".

"Lu Shizhen's description was very careful, and the blurred stars in Xu Shiyue's sight were connected to what others saw.

She just listened to Lu Shizhen's explanation, which was unexpected, but also expected.

Observing stars requires very precise vision, but Xu Shiyue felt that her blurred vision at the moment was not a serious matter.

Because she has another pair of eyes.

Lu Shizhen had missed it before and was unwilling to let Xu Shiyue miss it too. She chose to tell Xu Shiyue about every star she could describe.

For this reason, the two of them did not walk very fast, and they were a little far behind the large army in front.

But just like that, Lu Shizhen felt a kind of gaze falling on her and Xu Shiyue.

She still remembered Cheng Meiyan's instructions to her, and became increasingly vigilant.

So at a corner, Lu Shizhen suddenly stopped and turned around: "You have been following us all the way, what do you want to do?" But she saw Sun Chenchen standing behind them, full of shock after being discovered. .

The bright light extended the long corridor into a point in the distance, and the voices of Teacher Chen leading the orchestra members were gradually fading away.

Sun Chenchen stood just like this at the corner, her long hair and thick bangs covering less than half of her face, and the shadow cast by the light enveloped her, giving her an indescribable feeling of weirdness.

I don't know if she had planned to watch some infinite flow with some horror elements. Lu Shizhen's heart skipped a beat when she saw Sun Chenchen's sudden appearance.

She didn't have a good impression of Sun Chenchen in the first place, and her tone when she was taken aback like this was not very good: "Sun Chenchen, why are you following us in such a sneaky way?" "

I didn't want to do anything..." Sun Chenchen changed her words as soon as she opened her mouth. The atmosphere is broken. "I just want to find a time when no one is around to apologize to Xu Shiyue."

"Apologise?" Lu Shizhen was extremely confused and subconsciously stood a little in front of Xu Shiyue.

Sun Chenchen nodded: "Teacher Chen criticized and educated me yesterday, and I have realized my mistake."

After saying that, she looked at Xu Shiyue, who was protected by Lu Shizhen, and bowed slightly: " I'm really sorry Xu Shiyue. I really shouldn't have said and insulted you like that. I know that bad words hurt people. June Han, if I were you, I definitely don't want to hear those words. Only now do I know that I was What I said was indeed too hurtful. I'm really sorry. Can you forgive me?"

Sun Chenchen's voice surprisingly lost the arrogance and domineering tone it used to have in school, and the series of self-examinations were quite profound.

She just looked at Xu Shiyue like this, with extra sincerity in her eyes.

But Xu Shiyue pursed her lips slightly and did not speak for a long time.

Sun Chenchen's change happened so fast that Xu Shiyue didn't know whether it was true or not.

She just looked at the man in her sight who was bowing to her without anyone forcing him to take off the condom, and her eyes darkened a bit.

She thought that if it was fake, then this person's acting skills were really frighteningly proficient.

Compared to Xu Shiyue's emotionless expression, Lu Shizhen's eyes were full of surprise at Sun Chenchen's move.

She knew that according to Xu Shiyue's style of dealing with things, such an apology would not win much understanding from her. After all, she had been busy for more than two months now and was still receiving points deductions two days ago.

But Lu Shizhen looked at Sun Chenchen's bowing posture and refused to stand up even if no one said anything. First, he felt a little pity for her, and secondly, she and Xu Shiyue had already separated from the main force and had to hurry over, so he took the initiative to come out. Being the person who smoothed things over: "Okay, since it's for this kind of thing, don't be sneaky." "

I understand." Sun Chenchen nodded, with tears of regret in his slightly trembling voice.

She just said this, and then said to Lu Shizhen: "I also want to apologize to you for what happened yesterday, Lu Shizhen." "I'm

sorry, I shouldn't be so selfish, just to find trouble with you. "I'm sorry, Lu Shizhen, I shouldn't have learned the behavior of those adults, I'm really sorry."

After saying that, Sun Chenchen was extra sincere and bowed to Lu Shizhen in the same manner.

Although it was wrong to think so, Lu Shizhen still wondered if Sun Chenchen had also been cheated on.

Why did she suddenly become so sensible?

Lu Shizhen looked at the person in front of him who was apologizing to him, and waved his hand: "Ang, if you admit your mistakes, just correct them. I'm not too angry with you." "Hurry up and follow the big troops in front,

they We've all gone some distance away."

Sun Chenchen looked at Lu Shizhen with red eyes upon hearing this, a little pitifully: "But I want to follow you."

Although Lu Shizhen accepted the apology, he was not willing to accept Sun Chenchen as his "teammate" .

She seemed to understand Xu Shiyue's mood when he saw her, and she frowned with mixed emotions.

"I can take photos for you. My camera skills are very good. Lu Shizhen..."

Sun Chenchen seemed eager to get in touch with these two people, and even recommended himself.

But before she could shake the hard-spoken and soft-hearted Lu Shizhen, Xu Shiyue's voice interrupted her: "Let's go, I heard Teacher Chen is looking for her." After saying that, Xu Shiyue pulled Lu Shizhen

. Zhen held up his hand and ignored Sun Chenchen's overtures and walked towards the direction of the large army.

The quiet light elongated the silhouette of the figure standing alone, holding the camera a little tighter.

Sun Chenchen just looked at the two people walking away from him and followed them without hesitation.

The orchestra and the group toured the entire venue under the leadership of the planetarium staff. Although everyone gained a lot, the starry sky and sea as the centerpiece of the museum's science fiction technology had just come into everyone's sight.

The bright venue is covered with stars, and the semi-circular arc ceiling seen outside simulates a small earth.

The sound of the surging water flowed into everyone's ears with the wind, and even if they were not on the boat, they felt like it was rising and falling with it.

As the staff introduced its name: Starry Sky Sea, this place simulates the starry sky night scene on the sea.

The purpose of simulation is to give people an immersive feeling. As soon as Lu Shizhen and Xu Shiyue entered the venue, they saw a simulated giant ship docked at the simulated dock.

Water covered everyone's sight, and the endless blue was dotted with stars.

It is said that in order to strive for realism, this "sea" is as deep as three floors.

The staff of Xingkonghai checked the people present and walked to Teacher Chen: "I'm sorry, Teacher Chen. When we made the reservation, we said there would be a total of twenty-four people, and this Starry Sky Ship can accommodate up to twenty-four passengers at a time. This The two extra bodyguards..."

The man seemed to have no control over his volume when he spoke, and Lu Shizhen heard it just fine.

She knew that Teacher Chen had spent a lot of energy and financial resources to bring them to visit these projects this time. She didn't want to embarrass Teacher Chen anymore, so she took the initiative to say to the staff: "It doesn't matter, just ask them to wait for us opposite." The staff heard this

. His expression relaxed a little, and he nodded: "Then there will be no problem."

After being reminded by the staff, everyone got on the boat one after another. As soon as Lu Shizhen and Xu Shiyue stood firm, the entire space darkened.

The lighting suddenly faded away, and the stars no longer had the light source to disperse their brightness. They were like diamonds scattered on the black velvet lining of the sky, one after another, filling everyone's sight.

Lu Shizhen chose the brightest star and pointed it to Xu Shiyue: "Look, that star is so bright."

Xu Shiyue looked up after hearing this.

Fuzzy stars were scattered in her sight, and a star covered with a faint halo adorned the tips of the girl's raised fingers.

The bright starlight slowly magnified in her sight as the ship was lifted up by the waves, dyeing her fingers with light.

"Yes." Xu Shiyue just looked at it and echoed what Lu Shizhen said just now.

The sea cannot be calm forever. The ship's hull is lifted up by the waves, and then floated by the waves.

The stars swayed in Xu Shiyue's sight. She was not standing very steadily. Several waves came over her in succession, making her staggered.

The unstable footing disturbed Xu Shiyue's senses, causing her four senses to maintain balance to be confused for a moment.

She just held on to the only "railing" in sight as much as possible, trying to stabilize herself with Lu Shizhen's arm.

And then she felt her hand being held by someone and falling on a cool iron railing, and a figure shrouded her from behind in the dim world.

"Be careful." Lu Shizhen stood behind Xu Shiyue, helping her stabilize her body and holding her hand on the solid railing.

The surrounding students were also screaming in surprise at the sudden wave, making some noise.

Xu Shiyue felt that the surroundings were unprecedentedly quiet.

The sea breeze and the water rushing onto the deck were both cold, and the wet stockings felt a little cold against Xu Shiyue's legs.

Lu Shizhen's breath floated from behind her, and the close distance filled her ears and back with warmth.

The smell of roses melted into the humid sea breeze and covered the hem of her skirt.

One of her hands had become accustomed to the warmth of Lu Shizhen's arm, and the other hand felt hot from the palm holding her.

Xu Shiyue also felt a sense of chaos in her heart.

But not for this sudden surge of waves.

"A wave is coming, all my classmates, stand still." The man's words were a little delayed, but they were still timely.

The stars were still rolling with the sea water, but Xu Shiyue was already standing firmly on the deck.

She looked up at the starry sky, and in her peripheral vision was Lu Shizhen's shadow falling from behind.

The light in these sights suddenly reminded her of her birthday.

The stars were bright and shining, but not as bright as what Lu Shizhen had given her.

Thinking of this, Xu Shiyue frowned slightly. She didn't know why she suddenly thought of this matter.

But before she could figure it out, she heard that familiar yet disgusting voice coming from behind.

"Shi Zhen, Shiyue, look here." Sun Chenchen raised the camera, as if he really wanted to take pictures of them.

The two people almost turned their heads in unison, and then the flash of the camera lit up in their sight.

Sun Chenchen looked at the photo he had just taken in a serious manner. His eyes paused for a moment, and then he greeted Lu Shizhen with a smile on his face: "Shi Zhen, do you want to take a look at this photo I took?" ?"

Lu Shizhen didn't know what kind of medicine Sun Chenchen was selling in this gourd, but she was also worried that Sun Chenchen would make an ugly photo of her and Xu Shiyue, so she walked over anyway.

Although the surrounding light is very dim, from the perspective of composition alone, Sun Chenchen's technique is still good.

The emergency escape signs in the venue were not in the shot, and the semi-arc starry sky covered their backs.

She just stood behind Xu Shiyue, originally just helping her stabilize her body posture, which seemed a bit intimate and ambiguous.

Or maybe it's an inexplicable match.

Even better than Shen Yanxing.

Lu Shizhen frowned slightly.

She was a little surprised at the idea she just had, but she didn't show it in front of Sun Chenchen. She praised it one by one: "It's not bad."

Sun Chenchen smiled even more when he heard this.

She just admired her masterpiece, and the gentle smile just now gradually turned sinister and terrifying. She leaned into Lu Shizhen's ear and said, "Yes, this is the last photo after all." Lu

Shizhen His eyes suddenly paused and he looked at Sun Chenchen beside him in surprise.

The hotel was extremely quiet at night, and none of the band members wanted to talk to Sun Chenchen. She just walked out of the elevator alone.

But before she had gone far, someone stopped her.

He is from the Xu family.

They asked her to push Lu Shizhen away from Xu Shiyue.

Sun Chenchen was worried at first, but the man said: "This is not a crime, what are you afraid of? You just asked the Miss Lu who has been following her to leave her. What does Xu Shiyue's life and death have to do with you? Relationship?"

"Even if you have been classmates for three years, does she ever care about your face? At today's dinner, last time at school, did you forget who took away your title?" "Could you know that Xu

Shi Is the railing behind Yue broken, or did he know that Xu Shiyue would fall and drown? This is Lu Shizhen's dereliction of duty, and she will live with guilt all her life." "And our master will give you something after the incident is completed

. Isn't it more glorious than Xu Shiyue's recommendation to issue a letter of recommendation? What do you do now that doesn't require a letter of recommendation? You did this for our master. In the future, when you graduate from college, you will be hired by Xu's company. You have to be able to get into any one of them, and at least be in the management."

Resentment, jealousy, arrogance, and arrogance all made Sun Chenchen full of resentment towards Xu Shiyue and Lu Shizhen. She understood every word of the man, no matter it was She was willing to try any sentence.

Anyway, this is not a crime, so she does not need to bear any legal responsibility.

Memories flashed through Sun Chenchen's mind in an instant, and she just saw the man who had just talked to her yesterday walking over in staff clothes, and something like a screw was easily kicked into the sea in the darkness.

Xu Shiyue heard more than one sound of something falling into the water. When she was confused, a figure hugged her, and the railing in her hand was hit and rattled.

Amidst the abnormal sound of the railing, she subconsciously wanted to look at the man, but she didn't want to see another wave of waves coming right after.

I don't know if it was because she had just been hit by a passerby, but Xu Shiyue felt that the simple railing she was leaning on became loose. The next second, the thing was pulled out as she was shaken by the waves.

Being plotted against.

Xu Shiyue's eyes suddenly froze, and then she thought of Sun Chenchen's strange behavior just now.

But she realized it too late. She couldn't see her surroundings clearly, and she was shaken by the waves and was about to fall into the air.

The ship was still shaking violently, and the surrounding students and even Teacher Chen were too busy to take care of themselves. No one could save her...

But just when the weightlessness was about to swallow Xu Shiyue, a figure rushed over.

It was a figure she was very familiar with, and the warmth of her palm.

Lu Shizhen kicked Sun Chenchen who was holding her hard, rushed over and pulled Xu Shiyue over.

The deck with missing railings pushed up the sea water, and the waves rocked the hull of the ship, causing Lu Shizhen to stagger a few times.

Fortunately, her leg strength was very good. After pushing Xu Shiyue to a safe area, she had to hold on to the safe railing next to the gap and walk back.

And at this moment, the voice of the main system was abrupt but very suitable for the situation at this moment, and poured into Lu Shizhen's brain: [Punishment begins, punishment time: twelve minutes, punishment level: 粮, shielding is on. :11:59]

That familiar yet desperate feeling wrapped around Lu Shizhen's legs as the countdown flashed in her mind.

She only felt a shaking, and the seawater got between her and the railing, and the slippery and cold water separated her from it.

The stars were getting farther and farther away from her.

She is falling.

The unprovoked simulated waves rocked the boat on the water, and the stars seemed to be shaken away.

The feeling of weightlessness wrapped around the cold water filled Lu Shizhen's nose, and the splash was quickly swallowed up by the waves.

In the original world, Lu Shizhen had never even taken a bath alone, let alone learning to swim.

Water, a seemingly calm but disorderly thing, is a terrifying existence to her.

It was as if the entire simulated seawater was surging and pressing on her head. The legs that had been deprived of the system became a drag. The more she struggled, the more she was forced to sink.

But Lu Shizhen didn't want to die like this.

She knew that she often told Qiuqiu that one day of her life now meant one day of earning, but she still wanted to earn a few more days.

At least...

at least let Xu Shiyue learn from Lu Shize to the point where she can check and balance with him.

If she died now, Lu Shize would definitely be furious with Xu Shiyue. Forget about teaching her business skills, it was possible for her to pay with her life. Then wouldn't Xu Shiyue have to go through the plot in the original text again?

I don't want to die.

I really don't want to die.

Lu Shizhen had never felt that she was a person with such a strong survival instinct. She desperately raised her arms to draw people's attention to her position.

From a distance, she saw a person swimming towards her like a fish.

Swimmed over again.

"Help..."

In desperation, Lu Shizhen opened her mouth habitually, and the seawater surged into her trachea.

The water in her nose stirred her entire trachea, and even her head felt sore.

But just like that, the string of bubbles spit out in search of help only skipped the man's wavy flippers, and then broke into the blue water and merged with it.

Lu Shizhen opened her hands and wanted to ask that person for help, but when she saw something, she covered her mouth.

That man was wearing a diving suit and had an oxygen tube on his back. He was not a lifeguard who jumped into the water, but a person lurking in the water.

It was to catch the person who fell from the boat and ensure that she fell into the water "accidentally" and was eventually drowned by the water. The killer was paid by the Xu family.

Lu Shizhen stared at the figure that passed her twice, and the word "shield" in the system punishment notice flashed in her mind.

It was the main system that protected her.

But he wanted to kill her.

The oxygen that could be consumed gradually disappeared, and Lu Shizhen's consciousness began to become chaotic.

The systematic words in her mind overlapped with the sea water, and the swaying water turned blue and gradually became filled with stars.

The feeling of weakness spread from the numb legs to the struggling arms. The water was like lead, dragging Lu Shizhen's body down.

The bubbles gradually became sparse from being frequent at the beginning, and Lu Shizhen thought that maybe her first mission in the system was over.

What a shame.

None of the essays she read failed.

Yeah, how can a failed host be the protagonist of a book?

And she was never the protagonist from the beginning.

As the protagonist, will Xu Shiyue still remember that such a crazy person was by her side and used as her guide stick?

Xu Shiyue...

I don't feel at all worried no matter how much I think

about it... I don't know if it was when she said she was worried that Lu Shizhen's tight throat relaxed.

Before he could sigh, he was pressed to death by the water pouring in, leaving a string of bubbles in the air and running towards the stars sinking on the sea.

And just when Lu Shizhen gradually lost consciousness and felt like she was about to sink to the bottom of the sea, someone suddenly held her waist.

A force that did not belong to her tightly grasped her hanging wrist, and came to her as if using all its strength.

It's Xu Shiyue.

The next second Lu Shizhen fell into the water, Xu Shiyue jumped in without hesitation.

She can swim, and she went diving with her father in Hawaii last summer.

The cold sea breeze passed by her ears and messed up her skirt.

Amidst the intense weightlessness, she heard someone exclaim: "Shi Yue!"

However, this time it was not the girl's soft body that held her, but the water surface that was harder than the soil of Rose Flower Slope.

This is not the first time Xu Shiyue jumped despite knowing the danger.

It's just that the last time she jumped was to seek death, but this time she wanted to live with Lu Shizhen.

The waves rolled over and the cold water quickly swallowed Xu Shiyue.

But she was not affected at all. She maintained her balance as much as possible and carefully sensed the movement in the water.

Slowly, she seemed to feel the feeling of her arms undulating the water.

She also swam in search of this feeling, and swam away...

However, she was deviated from the track by a force several times, but it seemed that there was some undercurrent surging in the water, repelling her and not letting her get closer.

Xu Shiyue stared at the seemingly calm water in his sight, which was blue and translucent without any shadows.

As if giving up, Xu Shiyue waved her hands and walked across the water.

Just a few seconds after the water slowly returned to calm, it began to fluctuate violently.

Xu Shiyue made a comeback and wrapped her arms around the waist of Lu Shizhen, who was trapped in isolation.

She was a little crazy and deliberately let herself choke, and a rose fell on the tip of her tongue.

The taste was diluted to the extreme by the water, but she still couldn't admit her mistake.

Lu Shizhen was piled up with question marks.

So seeing is not necessarily believing.

It was as if a blade made of water cut into Xu Shiyue's arm, and pain shot through her bones.

And Xu Shiyue just frowned, not letting go at all of the arm that hugged Zhen's waist when she landed.

She found it.

Never let go.

As if sensing Xu Shiyue's toughness, the water's resistance became weaker.

The girl immersed in the water was facing each other like this. Just when Lu Shizhen felt that she was found by Xu Shiyue, the next second there was a soft touch on her lips.

Lu Shizhen had never done anything like this before and didn't know how to react.

She subconsciously opened her eyes and saw Xu Shiyue's facial features right in her line of sight.

The thick eyelashes were dotted with bubbles one by one, and she lowered her eyes with concentration that she shouldn't have.

Lu Shizhen's chaotic heart was full of panic. Before she knew what to do, her tightly closed lips were slightly opened by the person opposite.

And then oxygen entered her mouth one by one.

Wrapped in a light fragrance and warmth.

Maybe it's out of people's instinct to survive, and the touching of lips and teeth between same-sex people is not so embarrassing at this moment.

What's more, Lu Shizhen subconsciously moved closer to Xu Shiyue, and the hand that was originally held was clasped with hers as if seeking safety.

The sea water disturbed the long hair of the girls, and tangled them together.

Xu Shiyue's skirt skimmed over Lu Shizhen's calves, and the coldness and heat of the water clung to her.

Lu Shizhen could no longer tell whether the thumping thumping of her heart against her chest was the result of regaining life or some other reason.

I don't know how long it took, it might have been just a few seconds, or half a century had passed, but Xu Shiyue took the initiative to separate from Lu Shizhen.

She wanted to take Lu Shi Zhen up to swim, and was prepared for the difficulty, but she was still held down by the heavy weight in her arms.

Lu Shizhen also noticed it.

Her legs couldn't exert any strength at all, which was a huge drag on Xu Shiyue.

The twelve minutes underwater were far longer than those on land. Lu Shizhen didn't know how Xu Shiyue found her, but she felt that she shouldn't drag Xu Shiyue to perish together.

When Li and the others saw that he had fallen into the water, they would definitely come down to look for him. Why not just let go of Xu Shiyue's hand and let her go back for rescue. Maybe they could all be saved.

With this thought in mind, Lu Shizhen pointed to Xu Shiyue's leg and motioned for her to let go and find someone, but then she felt a stronger grip from the person.

Xu Shiyue refused to let her go, with a cruel yet paranoid look in her watery eyes.

She would not let Lu Shizhen go, and she didn't want Lu Shizhen to let go of her.

Even if this person takes the initiative, she will tie her to her side.

Xu Shiyue didn't know where her paranoia came from. Maybe it was something planted in her bones.

She didn't understand what Lu Shizhen meant by pointing to her legs, but she didn't give Lu Shizhen a chance to let go of her hand.

Lu Shizhen was once very afraid of being abandoned.

She has no abilities and is the biggest burden to others.

At this moment, she was still that burden, but there was no fear in her heart.

Xu Shiyue held Lu Shizhen's waist tightly and carried her with him to swim towards the water. The pain of squeezing and dragging made her feel more at ease than ever before.

The oxygen in both people's bodies was depleting rapidly, and water squeezed through the gaps in the nasal cavity and entered Xu Shiyue's trachea.

Her nasal cavity suddenly felt sore and swollen, and her hands became a little weak. At this moment, Li, who was looking for Lu Shi Zhen, finally saw their young lady swimming over from a distance.

Li originally wanted Xu Shiyue to let go and take Lu Shizhen by himself, so that Xu Shiyue would be more relaxed.

But when he was about to take Lu Shizhen's hand from one side, he saw that Xu Shiyue was still holding her hand with no intention of letting go, so he wisely chose to be a helper.

The sea above our heads gradually turned from dim to clear blue, and the bright and dazzling lights of the venue penetrated into the water.

Feeling a slight pressure, the three finally broke through the blockade of the large water area and came to the surface of the water.

"Shiyue! Shi Zhen! Oh my god." Teacher Chen cried directly when he saw his two students coming out of the water without any danger. Chen Miaomiao also stood aside with tears in her eyes.

Xu Shiyue couldn't see clearly what was going on around her, but she knew that people around her were concerned about her and Lu Shizhen.

Forget it, she just cared, and a voice came up to tell her that she could let go now.

But she didn't recognize this voice, it was completely unfamiliar.

She didn't feel like she could let go.

Lu Shizhen fainted at some point and was leaning in her arms.

The girl's breath hit her heart in an extremely real way, as weak and pale as the flickering candlelight on a candle.

Xu Shiyue didn't want the candlelight to go out.

This is the only light that exists in her world.

Her steady heartbeat and her somewhat uncontrollable nostalgia spread across the water-soaked wilderness.

The seeds buried deep in the soil were soaked with water and shook, causing a tremor in the dry wilderness.

At this moment, Xu Shiyue suddenly figured out many things.

About her jealousy.

About her depression.

About her uncool and life-threatening impulse at the moment.

Yes.

She fell in love with the person in front of her.

She likes Lu Shizhen.
