Laughter filled the classroom, and Fei Bai’s face turned slightly red. He scratched his hair and simply said to the teacher, “Teacher, I don’t want to stand either but there is no place to sit.”
The teacher casually pointed to an empty desk next to the podium and said, “Then come over here.”
…This was even worse than standing at the back of the classroom.
He couldn’t afford to slack off in front of the teacher. Even if the teacher didn’t reprimand him, there were still plenty of students watching.
Fei Bai swallowed hard and, in the end, had no choice but to pick up his backpack and move over. He attended the most serious elective class of his life, and the teacher occasionally interacted with him, giving him the surreal feeling of being turned into a living teaching prop.
Fei Bai struggled through the class, waiting for it to end. As he stood up to leave, he suddenly felt someone forcefully nudge the back of his knee, causing it to buckle, and he stumbled forward.
He had to grab onto the wall to regain his balance. When he finally turned around to see who had pushed him, the person had already left, and the dimly lit hallway made it impossible to identify them.
Fei Bai rubbed his knee, which was now a bit sore, and was about to turn to see if he could spot the person when the teacher’s voice called out, “The student over there, you’re in my class now, not performing in a circus. Sit down.”
The classroom erupted in laughter, and Fei Bai felt his face flush with embarrassment. He couldn’t afford to let this bother him and quickly walked to an empty seat at the front of the classroom.
After the class ended, Fei Bai couldn’t help but wonder who had pushed him and why. He had never seen that person before, and their behavior was strange and unpleasant.
Nonetheless, he decided to let it go and focus on his next class, which was a major-specific course. When he arrived, Qiao Li had already saved him a seat.
“Fei Bai, what’s the deal with that person from earlier? Why did they push you?” Qiao Li asked as Fei Bai sat down.
Fei Bai shared the incident with Qiao Li and added, “I have no idea who they are or why they did it. People can be strange sometimes.”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
Qiao Li shrugged. “Maybe they were having a bad day. Don’t let it bother you.”

Qiao Li rolled his eyes. “I should scold you for your lack of commitment to this project. I almost went ‘autistic’ trying to handle it on my own, thinking this project might be doomed due to your failed relationship.”
“I don’t deserve such a valuable accompaniment for my failed relationship,” Fei Bai said as he carefully read the notice for the midterm evaluation in the class group. “Completing this project could boost our chances for graduate school admission.”
Qiao Li exaggerated, “You know it now, Fei Bai. I thought you were clueless when you were in your drunken stupor.”
“Alright, stop mocking me. Let’s schedule a meeting in the next few days and start working on the midterm report. Otherwise, it’ll be too late,” Fei Bai suggested. “Tomorrow won’t work for me; I have to teach a class for Luo Yusen’s sister. How about the day after tomorrow at around 10 AM? I remember most of our group members are free around that time.”
Fei Bai’s class schedule for this semester was uneven, with some days packed with classes and others completely free. Last week, when Luo Yusen had discussed the timetable with him, she noticed he had no classes on Wednesdays, so she asked if they could include it as a working day.
“Why are you so busy, juggling academics and a side affair?” Qiao Li teased.
Fei Bai paused, feeling that these two “juggling acts” were quite different.
Qiao Li realized he had misspoken, “Oh, to be precise, it should be the side affair juggling you. I mean, you’re quite the selfless person.”
Fei Bai remained silent, contemplating Luo Yusen’s appearance and physique. Suddenly, an idea crossed his mind – perhaps someone might benefit more from the situation.
The next morning, Luo Yusen’s driver was waiting for Fei Bai downstairs at his home. As he got into the car, he reviewed the lesson plan Luo Yusen had sent him. Today’s session was mainly focused on sand play therapy for Luo Feifei.
Fei Bai had seen Luo Feifei’s previous sand play records, and the layout of the sandbox was consistently messy. She used the same toys repeatedly, and each sand play creation took a long time to complete due to repetitive actions like digging and shoveling sand.
Fei Bai found this situation strange. Feifei is nine years old, and based on the information he had seen, she had only started therapy in recent years, missing the critical early intervention period. Given the resources available to the Lu family, this situation seemed unusual.
He also recalled that neither Professor Chen nor Aunt Zhang had mentioned Feifei’s experiences before the age of six when they introduced her situation to him.
Could this child have been adopted?
Fei Bai quickly dismissed his previous thoughts. Luo Yusen’s parents were rarely at home, even on weekends, and they were likely very busy. Luo Yusen was pursuing a Ph.D., and it seemed unlikely that they would adopt a child-like Feifei, who required a significant amount of time and attention.
But why had they taken her in?
Fei Bai pondered this question for a while but couldn’t come up with a reasonable explanation. He had considered asking the driver, but then realized it might be a sensitive topic related to the secrets of a wealthy family, so he decided it was better not to pry.
Today, Luo Yusen had waited for him at home. When Fei Bai arrived, Luo Yusen handed him a new recording pen and said, “This is a new one. I’ve also imported the previous recording.”
Fei Bai thanked him and reached out to take the pen. However, he accidentally pressed the play button twice, causing his voice to emanate from the pen.
“You can only seduce your senior outside of working hours. Remember…”
He suddenly felt embarrassed, and his hair seemed to stand on end. He quickly lowered his head, found the pause button, and awkwardly stopped the playback, making sure there was no one within a meter of him before he could relax.
Luo Yusen chuckled softly. “Don’t want to hear your own voice?”
“It’s not that,” Fei Bai wished he could cover his face. “It’s just that it’s too embarrassing.”
Embarrassed to the point where, if he could, he’d dig out a whole set of villas with his toes right now.
Luo Yusen didn’t know what had come over him, but seeing Fei Bai embarrassed made him want to tease him. “Is this how you plan to seduce me?”
How could the male vixen manage to say suggestive things in such a casual tone?
Fei Bai struggled to speak, “Well, you know, people have to have some pursuit in life.”
Luo Yusen half-smiled and sighed, “Your pursuit can hardly be called noble.”
At that moment, Aunt Zhang emerged from Feifei’s training room. “Feifei is ready. Mr. Fei, are you coming over now?”
“Alright, I’ll be right there,” Fei Bai replied, turning to Luo Yusen. “Senior, I’m off to teach Feifei.”
Luo Yusen nodded and then added, “I’ll accompany her for a while. This is your first formal, extended session with her, and I’m concerned she might not adjust well.”
With Luo Yusen by her side, Feifei noticeably became calmer. While selecting toys and arranging the sandbox, she occasionally glanced at Luo Yusen’s expression and made some seemingly meaningful vocalizations.
Fei Bai observed her reactions and took out his phone to make some notes.
As he was typing, he heard Luo Yusen ask him, “What does this little house represent?”

Fiquei puta com o azulado lá
Eu hein, Bai que foi traído, e se for culpar alguém culpe o babaca do namorado.
So the evil vixen is the blue haired boy. But really? He already got the man, why does he still need to be such an a**!
Thanks for the chapter ❤️❤️
LY’s little sister is Feifei and there is Fei Bai (whose grandmother calls him FeiFei). Lots of Fei’s. And there’s been a few he and she pronoun mixups.
ik its the bare minimum at the very least but i love how fei bai is aware of his boundaries in asking questions, or more precisely, he thinks before he speak (ignoring the i wanna sleep w u part) HWHWHAHHA … a lot of mcs tend to just speak with their mouths and it annoys me so much
