"Yuxin, did you sneak over here, or did you inform your father beforehand?"
Ye Feng asked the most critical question first. If Su Yuxin had come without Su Wanli's knowledge, it would be a disaster. If it were discovered that she had sneaked out of the house, Ye Feng would bear some responsibility, and he would have no idea how to explain it to Su Wanli.
"Don’t worry, teacher. I already talked to my father about it. In fact, he even sent a driver to bring me here today."
"Is that so..."
Ye Feng couldn’t shake the feeling that things wouldn’t go so smoothly. Su Wanli would never allow his daughter to visit another man’s house so easily.
What Ye Feng didn’t know was that Su Yuxin had indeed discussed this with her father earlier. At first, Su Wanli had refused, but Su Yuxin resorted to her usual tactic of acting pitiful, which eventually forced her doting father to reluctantly agree to her request.
"Really! If you don’t believe me, Brother Ye Feng, you can call my father and ask."
Seeing that Su Yuxin had even offered this, Ye Feng finally began to believe her a little. With a sigh, he led her toward his room.
"By the way, Yuxin, how did you know my address?"
"It’s simple. I just asked my father, and he told me."
"Oh, I see..."
Ye Feng pursed his lips and pulled out his keys to unlock the door. But as he glanced down at Su Yuxin, whose face was practically glowing with anticipation, he hesitated for a moment.
"What’s wrong, Brother Ye Feng? Hurry up and open the door!"
Seeing Ye Feng pause, Su Yuxin quickly looked up at him, her expression growing impatient.
"Yuxin, maybe this isn’t a good idea. I haven’t had a chance to tidy up the place yet."
Ye Feng said somewhat awkwardly.
"What’s the big deal? I’m a guest visiting your home. It’s not right for the host to keep a guest waiting outside!"
"But..."
"No buts! Since I’m already here, Brother Ye Feng, you’ll just have to accept it~"
"......"
Seeing the mischievous grin on Su Yuxin’s face, Ye Feng knew that if he didn’t open the door, she would probably spend the whole day pestering him.
Fine, so what if it’s a little messy?
"Ding-dong"
"Click"
As the door opened, Ye Feng hadn’t even pulled the key out of the lock before Su Yuxin slipped through the gap and darted inside.
"Whoosh~"
"Yuxin, slow down..."
Ye Feng watched as Su Yuxin moved as quickly as a cat chasing a mouse, disappearing in an instant. After pulling out the key, he finally stepped inside and closed the door.
"Yuxin?"
Back inside, Ye Feng watched as Su Yuxin looked around curiously, first to the left, then to the right. He couldn’t help but wonder what was so interesting about his small apartment.
"Stop fooling around, Yuxin. Sit down. We need to start the lesson."
"Brother Ye Feng, your home is so clean! Can I take a look at your bedroom?"
"No!"
Ye Feng firmly rejected Su Yuxin’s request. After all, his personal belongings were in the bedroom, and it wasn’t appropriate for a girl to insist on going into a guy’s room. Even Xie Yuyan usually waited for him on the couch when she visited. She never had the habit of barging into his bedroom, aside from occasionally helping him wash his bedsheets.
"Brother Ye Feng, you’re so stingy! I even let you into my room before."
Su Yuxin pouted, clearly unhappy with Ye Feng’s refusal.
"That’s different. Besides, it wasn’t like I asked to go, right?"
"That’s not the point! The point is being open and honest! See how honest I am with you, Brother Ye Feng~"
"......"
Seeing the exasperated look on Ye Feng’s face, Su Yuxin realized she needed to behave, or her image as a well-behaved girl would be ruined in his eyes.
"Hehe, I’m just a little curious about Brother Ye Feng’s home, that’s all."
Su Yuxin sat properly on the couch, her small hands resting on her skirt-covered thighs, assuming the posture of a model student. This finally eased Ye Feng’s tension a bit.
"Yuxin, did you bring your textbooks? I didn’t see you carrying anything when you arrived."
"Don’t you have lesson plans here? That should be enough, right?"
"Well, yes, but will you be able to follow along if I just explain things directly?"
"Of course... though it might be a little challenging. But if you explain slowly, I’ll be able to keep up."
"Alright then. Sit tight for a moment while I go get the lesson plans."
"Okay~"
Su Yuxin sat obediently on the couch, swinging her short legs. Today, she was dressed as usual in a brightly colored princess dress, with white knee-high socks peeking out from her little leather boots.
"Ah... this is so nice~"
Su Yuxin tilted her head back, breathing in the scent of Ye Feng that filled the room. Her heart felt as sweet as if she’d eaten honey. She even started to fantasize about living here forever and never going home.
"Being surrounded by Brother Ye Feng’s scent every day must be the happiest thing in the world."
"Yuxin, what are you muttering about over there?"
Ye Feng, who had just returned with the lesson plans, saw Su Yuxin sitting with her eyes closed, seemingly lost in some blissful thought. But the way her mouth was practically watering gave him a bad feeling.
"Huh? N-nothing, teacher. I was just reviewing the last lesson."
Since when does reviewing lessons make you drool?
Though he knew Su Yuxin was lying, Ye Feng didn’t press further. He sat down across from her with the lesson plans.
"Ahem, if there are no issues, let’s start the lesson."
"Brother, do you dislike me?"
Su Yuxin suddenly blurted out.
"Huh? Yuxin, what are you talking about? Why would I dislike you?"
"Then why are you sitting so far away from me!"
Su Yuxin pouted, her lips sticking out exaggeratedly as if trying to coax Ye Feng to move closer. But when he didn’t budge, she couldn’t sit still any longer. She suddenly stood up, clenching her small fists and looking down at Ye Feng.
"Y-Yuxin? What are you doing?"
Ye Feng was startled by Su Yuxin’s sudden movement. He hadn’t said anything to provoke her, so why was she standing up?
"Hmph... if Brother won’t move, then I will!"
Su Yuxin stomped over to Ye Feng’s side and plopped down next to him before he could even make room.
"Hey, hey! Yuxin, don’t sit so close!"
"It’s because Brother insisted on sitting so far away, as if I smell bad or something."
"That’s not what I meant..."
"Then let’s start the lesson!"
Su Yuxin cut him off, scooting even closer to Ye Feng.
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week?

There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
