A Beautiful Misunderstanding

On the way back, the two inevitably ran into students from other classes.

In this school brimming with youthful energy, this boy-and-girl pairing did not draw any criticism.

If not for Shi Cheng's presence.

It would not have attracted any attention at all.

Besides, Shi Cheng was tall and handsome.

Sakura Airi was just a country bumpkin.

It was truly hard for anyone to connect the two of them.

Could it be that Shi Cheng only liked Sakura Airi for her great bosom?

The girls, shedding tears of poverty and consumed by envy and jealousy, thought so.

Shi Cheng could not possibly be that shallow.

Shi Cheng thought so too.

But the problem was, this was not Sakura Airi's true self.

You had all been fooled by her.

She was a bad girl.

All of a sudden, Shi Cheng came to a realization.

That was right, exactly.

When facing a bad girl.

Why should he feel burdened by guilt?

He should charge forward and teach Sakura Airi a proper lesson.

Sensing the change in Shi Cheng's aura.

Sakura Airi, who had been walking like an ostrich, shrank her neck.

She did not understand. Hadn't everything been fine just now?

Unable to make sense of having let the wolf into her home, Sakura Airi could only pull herself together again.

It must have been a hallucination caused by being too nervous just now.

Don't scare yourself.

It would be over soon.

Sakura Airi kept reassuring herself.

Thus, led by the deeply contemplative Sakura Airi.

Shi Cheng came to the girls' dormitory for the first time.

Shi Cheng looked around, mainly to satisfy his curiosity.

How should he put it?

It was very ordinary.

The layout was basically the same as the boys' dormitory.

But that was normal.

They were in the same building.

There was no need to put extra effort into a different design.

"Please use these." Sakura Airi's sweet voice trembled slightly, far less calm than she had been during swimming class.

It seemed she had finally realized the problem.

Shi Cheng took the slippers with a cold expression and replied evenly, "Mm."

Sakura Airi quickly pulled back her hand, her voluptuous body trembling lightly.

Not daring to stay in the entryway any longer, Sakura Airi hurried inside to prepare.

Shi Cheng changed into the slippers and followed her.

He saw Sakura Airi bent over in front of the computer, clicking on something.

Shi Cheng did not rashly step forward and interrupt her.

He waited quietly.

In his line of sight.

Her delicate, slender white legs inevitably entered his view.

Under the lights, they looked exceptionally good.

Only, they lacked a pair of stockings.

Shi Cheng inwardly lamented the pity.

It seemed his luck was bad today.

She clearly often wore all kinds of stockings—short and long, black and white, with excellent texture.

Shaking his head, Shi Cheng gentlemanly shifted his gaze elsewhere.

There would be plenty of time to look later. No need to rush.

He did not find the casually discarded perks he had expected.

Instead, he found a pile of suspicious letters.

This left Shi Cheng rather speechless.

After sorting out his disappointment, Shi Cheng began to speculate.

Confession letters? Probably not.

Shi Cheng swiftly dismissed the idea.

Sent by fans?

Shi Cheng's eyes widened slightly.

Wasn't this supposed to be fully closed-off?

You thick-browed, big-eyed school, so idols got special treatment, huh?

If they did not throw him eight hundred thousand or a million in living expenses, he would absolutely not pretend not to see it.

Shi Cheng roared inwardly.

Before he could sneak over to verify it.

Sakura Airi finally finished on her end.

Sakura Airi tugged hard at the hem of her skirt and turned around with a blush.

As a girl, she had an almost keen sensitivity to people's gazes.

So she noticed within three seconds of Shi Cheng staring at her.

Fortunately, Shi Cheng shifted his gaze quickly.

Otherwise, she might not have been able to remain standing.

This made Sakura Airi regain a little goodwill toward him, but it was too late.

She had already made up her mind.

"Shi Cheng, come take a look for yourself. This is the evidence of your crime!" Sakura Airi spoke earnestly, as though she had already convicted him.

Shi Cheng muttered as he walked over.

What evidence? Be careful, or I'll sue you for slander.

Sitting down in the chair, Shi Cheng leaned forward.

The contents on the computer instantly became clear.

They were all disgusting things girls said, enough to give Shi Cheng goosebumps.

He found them unbearable to read.

Where did such a shameless person come from?

This was way too shameless.

As he read, Shi Cheng suddenly realized something.

Sakura Airi seemed to have said this was evidence of his crime.

Shi Cheng's mouth twitched.

What a trumped-up charge.

He was not that low-level or bored.

But it really was not easy to explain right now.

After all, every word on the screen pointed toward him, the only person who knew the truth.

Just as Shi Cheng was at a loss.

The computer screen began to update.

Shi Cheng's eyes lit up. He released the mouse and said, "Sakura, I no longer have the heart to explain who is right and who is wrong. Come see for yourself."

No way, he was still trying to struggle?

Sakura Airi, standing beside him, walked over in confusion and bent down while trying to keep her distance from Shi Cheng.

Then she saw something that sent her into a panic.

The comments kept popping up.

It was clear someone was continuously casting spells.

Logically speaking.

Her tolerance should have been quite high by now.

But the problem was.

The person she had judged guilty was Shi Cheng.

With things like this.

Wasn't it plainly telling her.

That she had misunderstood Shi Cheng?

"Wuwuwu!" Sakura Airi lowered her eyes in shame.

If she had not been lying across the desk right now, she would have had nowhere to hide her face.

Sakura Airi turned her head. Behind her lensless glasses, her gaze wandered as she said, "Shi Cheng, punish me!"

She hoped to earn Shi Cheng's forgiveness this way.

You said it yourself, so I won't hold back.

Shi Cheng rubbed his hands together and stood up.

After that, Sakura Airi bit down on her red lips and watched the constantly updating comments before her.

For a moment, her feelings were a tangled mess.

Who knew how long passed before the comments finally stopped.

This punishment finally came to an end as well.

Sakura Airi's body was flushed pink. Leaning weakly yet contentedly against Shi Cheng, her face rosy, she said, "Shi Cheng, can you forgive me?"

There had been too many comments, and her head was about to explode from reading them.

Fortunately, with Shi Cheng's support, Sakura Airi had managed to hold on until now.

"That depends on whether you behave from now on." Shi Cheng, firmly established in the dominant position, gently lifted her chin with a wicked smile.

He had not expected this surprise to come so suddenly.

Heaven was truly helping him.

Thinking of the new ability he had acquired, Shi Cheng's hand unconsciously tightened.

Pain flashed across Sakura Airi's face, but she did not dare make a sound and could only endure it silently.

After Lightning, the new Capture effect Shi Cheng had gained was as follows: he could clearly see the movements of an instant.

This was an extremely practical ability.

He had not expected to obtain it from Sakura Airi.

It greatly exceeded Shi Cheng's expectations.

She was just an idol.

But when he thought about how Sakura Airi often needed to capture beautiful fleeting moments.

It somehow became perfectly reasonable again.

Overjoyed, Shi Cheng could not help slowly stroking his fingers together. The silky sensation made him narrow his eyes.

After the buildup just now, Sakura Airi entered the mood just as quickly.

Docile as a little lamb, she gently lifted her chin.

Guiding Shi Cheng's hand to a more convenient position.

For a time, the atmosphere here became warm.

Yet as Shi Cheng moved his fingers, he kept feeling as though he had forgotten something.

Shiina Hiyori, who had already returned from the Library, said, "That's right, it was me."

Hadn't they agreed to meet at the Library? Where was he?

What a big liar!
