In no time, Ye Feng returned from the cafeteria with a bowl of congee. According to the doctor, Li Mucheng could only eat light food for now.
"Miss Li, the doctor said you can only eat congee. Will this do?"
Ye Feng held the bowl, ready to pass it to Li Mucheng, but she was pouting, looking at him with anticipation.
"Miss Li? It's time to eat."
"Thank you, Teacher~"
Li Mucheng tried to sit up with her hands, looking weak, but despite her efforts, she fell back onto the bed.
"Miss Li?"
"Teacher... I... I don't have the strength."
Li Mucheng looked at Ye Feng pitifully.
"Could you... feed me?"
Ye Feng took a deep breath. He remembered how Li Mucheng had managed to sit up on her own when he first entered the room, but now she was pretending to be helpless.
"This... might not be appropriate. What if someone sees us..."
"It's a private room, Teacher. You don't have to worry about being seen by others."
"Ah... fine, then."
Seeing Li Mucheng's determined gaze, Ye Feng knew that since he had stepped into this room, there was no escaping. He finally agreed, thinking it would be better to get it over with and leave sooner.
These rich folks are really lazy. They can't even feed themselves when food is right in front of them. When will I ever get such treatment...
Ye Feng pulled up a chair beside Li Mucheng's bed, adjusted the bed's position, and gently scooped up some congee with a small spoon, carefully bringing it to her mouth.
"Ah~ Mmm~"
Li Mucheng swallowed the congee with satisfaction, then slyly extended her tongue to lick the spoon before letting go.
"I want more~"
"Miss Li, watch your words!"
"Then... I want more~"
"Miss Li!!"
"Alright, alright, hurry up~"
...
"Thank you for the meal, Teacher~"
After finishing her meal, Li Mucheng took the napkin Ye Feng handed her to wipe her mouth, returning to her ladylike demeanor.
"But your hands... weren't you able to move them?"
"That's because I gained strength after eating."
"......"
Despite many flaws, there seemed to be a grain of truth in that.
Seeing Li Mucheng's condition improving, Ye Feng prepared to take his leave. After all, Ah Fu could handle the rest.
"Miss Li."
"Yes?"
"It's... getting late, and I should..."
Ye Feng trailed off, glancing at Li Mucheng's expression. What if this girl suddenly went crazy again? It was better to wait and see.
"Oh? Teacher, are you trying to leave early?"
To Ye Feng's surprise, Li Mucheng didn't show any signs of anger. Instead, she looked confident, as if everything was under her control.
"Leave early? But we didn't have class today, did we?"
"Even though we didn't have class, don't you think this lesson should be made up?"
"Well... I guess so."
"And to make it up, wouldn't we have to find a day from Monday to Friday?"
"Yes."
"Wouldn't that mean one extra day of classes, making it tiring?"
"Yes."
"There you go~"
Li Mucheng clapped her hands together.
"Instead of that, Teacher, why not stay until the end of your workday? I'll tell Ah Fu to count it as your class for the day~"
"Hmm..."
After considering Li Mucheng's suggestion, Ye Feng realized it made sense. No wonder she's the daughter of a tycoon; she's so reasonable!
"What do you think, Teacher? Do you agree with me?"
Li Mucheng narrowed her eyes, waiting for Ye Feng's response, though she already knew the outcome.
"You're absolutely right! Miss Li, you're so clear-headed."
"Of course, so Teacher, you'll stay with me until the end of your workday, won't you?"
"Alright, then."
As expected, seeing Ye Feng obediently sitting beside her, Li Mucheng's lips curled into a smile. She leaned against the headboard, staring at Ye Feng's profile, as if savoring the most beautiful thing in life.
"Knock knock"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, followed by Ah Fu's voice.
"Ye Feng, are you in there?"
"Ah Fu?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng quickly got up to open the door. Li Mucheng pouted softly, muttering under her breath, annoyed that Ah Fu had returned at this moment.
As the door opened, Ah Fu, drenched in sweat, appeared.
"How is it? Is Miss Li awake?"
"She's much better. She just finished eating."
"Phew... that's good. I just went back to have someone bring Miss Li's clothes."
Ah Fu motioned for the maid behind him to enter with the clothes.
"Come on, Ye Feng, let's step out for a moment."
"Okay."
...
By the window, Ah Fu leaned against the sill, looking gratefully at Ye Feng.
"Ye Feng, today, I really have to thank you. If it weren't for you, I don't know how I would explain this to the master."
"It's nothing. This is what I should do."
"You know, you don't have the temperament of someone your age. When I was your age, I was so arrogant."
Heh, how could it be the same? You're playing a long game in life, while I'm racing against time. This is all out of necessity.
...
"Miss Li, are the clothes fitting?"
"Yes, bring Ye Feng back in."
"Understood."
As Li Mucheng watched the maid take away her pajamas, she couldn't help but recall the scene from this morning, causing her to burrow back under the covers.
After a short while, there was another knock on the door. Li Mucheng pulled back the blanket, patted her flushed cheeks, and cleared her throat: "Come in."
"Miss Li, is there anything else?"
"Teacher, you haven't taught me yet."
"Teach you? But Miss, given your condition..."
"Just some theoretical knowledge would be fine, Teacher. Otherwise, it's too boring."
"Alright, then. What would you like to learn?"
Ye Feng sighed helplessly and sat back down in the chair.
"I want to hear about the hidden techniques you mentioned earlier, Teacher. If I want to hide without being discovered, what should I do?"
"That's simple. Like how I found you earlier, first, eliminate the characteristics that make you easy to notice, such as your scent or the color of your clothes. Then, blend in with the environment so you won't be detected."
"I see. So how do I mask my own scent?"
"Miss Li, it seems you weren't paying attention in class. One of the herbs I taught you can mask your scent. Just crush it and apply it to your clothes."
"Oh, I understand~"
For the first time as a teacher, Ye Feng forgot the old saying: "Teaching a disciple can lead to the master's downfall." The seed he planted would eventually bear fruit, subtly changing the course of events.
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring.

So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart?
