In conclusion, the little episode of the unexpected arrival of the Female Rover has come to an end.

Unfortunately, Hajiling's old injuries hadn't healed before she suffered new ones, so she still needs someone to stay here to take care of her.

Little Ai originally planned to volunteer to stay and take care of Xiao Ling, which would give them more time alone together.

"I'll do it; after all, it's my responsibility that he ended up like this."

Are you kidding me? Would Rover leave these two alone? She was terrified they'd actually cause a fatal scene in the infirmary.

(This area is prone to accidents in medical clinics.)

"You really don't trust my character?" Xiao Ling raised an eyebrow.

"Thank you, but I don't trust anyone at all now." The Rover was very honest.

Rover: Stop pretending! You were just having feelings for me!

"Ha... Fine, since it's come to this, I'll stop pretending!"

Xiao Ling suddenly stood up, startling everyone around her.

"Senior! Sit down! Sit down!" Sigrika cried out in alarm, "Your foot injury hasn't healed yet! What if it gets worse...!"

"Ha... don't be silly, Xixi," Dania said, rubbing her forehead. "If his leg is still injured, he won't even be able to stand up."

"She was injured, but Dr. Verina's medical skills are superb; for her, this kind of injury is nothing," Xiao Ling said, waving his hand.

In fact, with Verina's help, his injuries recovered quickly. He was able to move freely again in about two or three hours. Xiao Ling felt that he had been too conservative. He had thought that his condition would improve after today.

"Oh? So you were faking it all along?" Roccia meaningfully. "Let me think... if it were Aemeath stayed here, would you have kept up the act?"

"Although, the infirmary isn't a good date spot, Principal Roccia," Xiao Ling joked, "It's certainly qualified as an accident hotspot."

"Accident-prone areas? Do you mean places where people are prone to fatalities?"

"Principal, you've got quite a bit of experience too!"

Immediately, everyone present looked at Roccia with shock and astonishment, as if they had discovered some incredible secret.

"Oh dear, why are you all staring at me?" Roccia blinked her beautiful big eyes, looking rather bewildered.

"Principal... you seem to have... said something quite astonishing..." Dania was so surprised that she could barely speak.

"It's just a normal phenomenon that students go through puberty; there's no need to be so secretive about it." Roccia quite composed and seemed completely unaffected.

"What normal student would do something like that in the infirmary?" Xiao Ling felt a little embarrassed.

(Just use the infirmary for seeing patients, okay?)

In short, under Verina's treatment, Xiao Ling is back to her energetic self.

To be fair, this character truly lives up to its reputation as someone who accompanies newbies through the early stages of the game; its healing abilities are quite impressive.

As for the Female Rover's future arrangements, Principal Roccia quickly made her a legitimate student here and allowed her to begin experiencing campus life in this world.

So, in the afternoon history class, Female Rover, Xiao Ling, and Dania sat in the same row, but unfortunately, Xiao Ling didn't get to hug either of them; instead, she was moved to the side.

As usual, Dania fell asleep as soon as she arrived at the classroom, slumped over her desk, and went straight to sleep.

Looking at Dania, who had fallen asleep instantly, the Rover couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "This woman is truly extraordinary."

"Is it alright to just let her sleep like this?" The Rover glanced at Xiao Ling, trying to get him to do something about the sleeping beauty.

"Her love of sleeping is one of Yaya's endearing qualities," Xiao Ling said without a hint of surprise. "Let her sleep."

What if the teacher calls on her later?

"She can handle it, don't worry!"

The Rover sighed softly, not dwelling on the matter too much, and continued listening to the teacher recount the development of world history.

"I really miss the feeling of quietly listening to a lecture in the classroom," she said softly.

"You're not the kind of person who's always on fieldwork, are you?" Xiao Ling asked.

"I guess so. For me, being a student at the Star Torch Academy makes it easier to observe and analyze the marine erosion phenomena in Lahai-Roi. I didn't go there to enjoy campus life anyway."

"While there have been times when I sat peacefully in the classroom listening to the teacher's lecture, those moments only accounted for a very small portion of my life."

"Now you can experience the daily campus life from 8 am to 6 pm."

The Rover smiled without saying a word, sitting quite upright at the table and listening attentively to the lesson, looking like a model student.

Xiao Ling had no intention of pretending to be well-behaved at all. He simply lay on the table and watched the teacher's animated lecture. Sometimes, when he got bored, he would start scrolling through his phone.

"Dania, please answer this question," the teacher's kind voice rang out.

The Rover gently nudged Dania, who was still sleeping, causing her to spring up from the table with a whoosh.

After Dania turned her gaze to the Female Rover, the Female Rover simply smiled and gestured towards the podium.

"Here we go again..."

Dania stood up and answered the questions projected on the screen clearly and logically, earning praise from the teacher.

Then, she lay back down on the table and soon drifted off to sleep again.

"So he just loves to sleep," the Rover said, suddenly realizing.

"She stays up all night playing games and then sleeps at school during the day, which is kind of a routine," Xiao Ling said helplessly, spreading her hands. "Speaking of which, we have a plan, and we wonder if you'd be willing to do us the honor of participating?"

"Tell me about it?" the Rover asked with great interest.

"Well, here's the thing. By the way, move closer, so Dania doesn't hear."

Xiao Ling told the Rover that she and Aemeath and the others were preparing a birthday surprise for Dania.

"That child is right next to me. Aren't you afraid that after you tell me, I'll turn around and tell someone else?" the Rover said with a sly glint in his eyes.

"I believe you're not that kind of person," Xiao Ling said with a smile. "Besides, if Dania knew about the birthday surprise beforehand, wouldn't Aemeath and the others' preparations be completely wasted?"

"Imagine, when Little Ai, her hands covered in bruises, presents the doll she painstakingly sewn to Dania, only to be met with an expression that says 'I know everything,' wouldn't she feel like all her efforts were in vain?"

"Maybe she'll be alone in a dark room feeling sad after the party?"

In truth, Xiao Ling knew perfectly well that even if Dania knew about this beforehand, she would still be very happy. However, if she did find out in advance, the birthday surprise would be much less effective.

Sure enough, the Rover's expression turned rather ugly after hearing Xiao Ling's words.

Her intention was simply to play a trick on this unreliable guy, but she ended up being outmaneuvered instead.

"Ha... I'll keep it a secret," the Rover said, rubbing his forehead.

See? Ai- Little Ai's special attack weapon against drifters always works!
