"We should first think about the root of this problem. In mathematics, the method is what matters most, so this is that, and that is this. Put simply, this and that are more or less the same."

"What's written on the PPT is different from the content in our textbooks. This proves that—well, it doesn't prove anything else either. And we should all study properly, right?"

"Alright, students, turn your attention to me. Look at this equation I've written on the blackboard. This equation..."

Teacher Wang lectured with great enthusiasm, clearly immersed in his own world.

Xia Yan seriously wrote and scribbled in his notebook. His handwriting was neat, with the delicate elegance that usually only appeared in girls' writing.

Meanwhile, Hua Xin lay sprawled across her desk, still wearing her hood and mask, completely motionless...

????????

She had already fallen sound asleep to the most effective lullaby in the world.

(Stayed up late last night and got up early today.)

Beneath the mask was an exceptionally adorable, baby-faced girl. She seemed to be sleeping even more soundly than she did at home.

Drool had already soaked her sleeve??, as if she were dreaming about something wonderful.

"kukukuchichi."

"?"

Xia Yan stopped moving his pen and looked toward the source of the sound in confusion.

He saw Mu Feng staring curiously at Hua Xin... who was sitting beside him.

Xia Yan glanced at Teacher Wang, who was still talking nonstop at the front, then helplessly picked up the phone beside him.

He knew that Mu Feng wasn't the only one curious about Hua Xin. The others were more or less curious too.

After all, only having to come to class two days a week was something particularly unusual in most people's eyes.

It also seemed unfair.

If Hua Xin could do it, then couldn't everyone else skip class too?

After all, the counselor hadn't publicly announced the matter, so Hua Xin could attend school without being discriminated against.

Therefore, to prevent?? future trouble and unnecessary gossip, Xia Yan had prepared a response plan long ago??.

Three days earlier, after class, he had explained the matter in front of everyone, tactfully telling them about her "special family circumstances."

Thanks to his excellent relationships with others, none of the more than thirty classmates in the class had any objections.

Most pure and kind-hearted college students were still quite friendly.

Only a few people would turn on the lights at night and howl while gaming, play videos and music aloud, make video or voice calls with their partners while others were sleeping, and leap down from the top bunk like Bo Gang, shaking the whole room with a thunderous crash.????

Xia Yan: "Hua is a really nice person, just very socially anxious. I'll introduce you all sometime."

Mu Feng: "Okay, Brother Yan."

Xiang Guan: "Don't introduce her to that mutt Mu. He'll only take her to play ○."

Mu Feng: "C.N.M."

Xiang Guan: "Why are you yelling in the middle of the day, you bandage?"

Xia Yan smiled, then put his phone back on the desk and continued taking notes.

Suddenly, as Teacher Wang continued speaking, the chalk dancing across the blackboard let out a shrill sound.

Hua Xin: "??????"

Hua Xin, who had been drinking and feasting with a crowd of 2D wives in her dream, raised her head in confusion. Her entire body shuddered as if ants were crawling all over her??.

At a loss, the girl shook her legs first??.

(What happened?)

(What kind of heavenly music is this??)

(I really... I really want to punch him in the face????!!??)

In reality, however, the girl merely faced the wall in silence, lifted her mask, and wiped away her drool.

Dared to be angry but not to speak.jpg.

Feeling the soreness and numbness in her legs and arms, Hua Xin leaned weakly against the wall.

So numb, so numb, so numb, so numb.

She tried moving one leg.

Eek!!?? So numb, so numb. The girl didn't dare move again. That tingling sensation could easily make someone cry out.

She hadn't forgotten that Xia Yan was right beside her.

And besides...

She raised her head slightly, her field of vision filled with people.

Men????.

Women????.

The elderly????.

Fortunately, they were all in front of her... Otherwise, she would definitely have already been so afraid she couldn't breathe??.

And then... she turned her head slightly.

She saw Xia Yan propping up his face, still looking at her with a smiling expression.

His profile was exceptionally handsome, and his smiling eyes easily captured the hearts of girls experiencing their first stirrings of love.

But Hua Xin instantly turned her head away and closed her eyes. She wasn't interested. She was simply consumed by jealousy.

(And there are handsome, sunny men??.)

Tsk... So dazzling.

(Why is this person's smile so dazzling??)

(And does he smile like that at everyone?)

(He's such a classic womanizer. Disgusting????)

Hua Xin looked down on all sunny, socially successful people without exception, especially someone so handsome and sunny.

At a glance, it was obvious he had already ruined countless beautiful girls and had probably even tried every position????.

Damn it... Why couldn't shut-ins find love???

Why were shut-ins only worthy of watching other people eat their fill in hotels and bars from the sewer?

That's right...

Love???

The girl remembered her "Water Husband."

Er??...

She silently picked up the phone from the desk, turned her back to the wall, and opened the chat window with him.

The unsightly chat history above was still lying there quietly.

12:00 a.m.

Invincible Cat Fist: "Help me rank up. I want to reach Grandmaster."

Number One Son Online: "Call me hubby??."

Invincible Cat Fist: "? Call your mom."

Number One Son Online: "Come on, call me that. Wife, wife, wife??."

"Look at the jailer. Looking at your legs is fine too??, muah muah, wife."

Invincible Cat Fist: "..."

Number One Son Online: "There's nothing at all, huh? Give me my money back. We're breaking up."

"In the end, I was the one who bore everything alone. I knew you didn't truly love me. You're just a wicked woman who threw herself into the flames because of my outstanding skills."

At this, Hua Xin finally couldn't hold herself together after seeing such shameless nonsense and straightened up.

But because her legs were still numb, she slumped back down.

Don't ask what happened afterward. All you need to know is that, for a free booster, the girl sold her soul and took a picture of her legs before her "Water Husband" agreed to fulfill her request to rank up.

Number One Son Online: "Wife, I love you??. Kisses, kisses, kisses, mwah mwah mwah. I'll take you to Grandmaster this weekend, don't worry, meow."

Yes, he even added a "meow."

Teacher Wang's enthusiastic voice continued, but in the girl's ears, it went in one ear and out the other.

Hua Xin resisted the urge to reach through the screen (I'm right beside you, silly girl.) and strangle him, then sent a message.

Invincible Cat Fist: "What are you doing, son?"

"Bzzz."

Xia Yan, who had been concentrating on taking notes, noticed the phone beside him suddenly light up. Since it was on silent, it made no sound.

Was it Director Li?

But class was still in session...

Xia Yan lowered his pen and picked up the phone in confusion. The notification wasn't from anyone else, but from a specially followed QQ contact saved under the name "Wife."

Seeing the message she had sent him, a trace of amusement flashed through Xia Yan's eyes.

Although he really didn't want to admit it, he was indeed a foot fetishist, a leg fetishist, a face fetishist, a hand fetishist, a chest fetishist, an arm fetishist, and a fetishist for that other thing too.

The girl's legs and jailer had genuinely moved his high standards??.

Otherwise, with no shortage of girls throwing themselves at him and taking the initiative to strike up conversations, he would have had plenty of relationships by now instead of remaining unable to shake off the title of virgin.

But he believed that a relationship should only begin when fate had brought two people together, they understood each other thoroughly, their values were compatible, and they liked each other.

Yet ever since he had seen Hua Xin's photo...

Hua Xin, facing the wall, looked at the message before her and couldn't help tugging at the corner of her mouth, her eyes filled with speechlessness.

Number One Son Online: "I'm wondering when you'll step on me, wife??".
