Classroom Rules Must Be Followed

Shen Nian felt uneasy under Xia Yanchun's gaze.

"Hehe, sleep well, my dear Chun. If you can't fall asleep, I'll coax you."

"I don't need it."

Xia Yanchun still returned to her own seat, took out her small pillow to cushion her head, lay down, and looked towards Shen Nian.

"Good afternoon."

"Mhm, good afternoon, you dummy."

"You just had to insult me right before sleep. You'd better pray you don't fall asleep too deeply." Shen Nian made a playful threatening gesture.

Xia Yanchun didn't even want to bother with him and closed her eyes to rest.

Last night's sleep quality had been surprisingly good. She closed her eyes, lay quietly for a long time, before drowsiness slowly washed over her.

In the past, she would have felt sleepy by the fourth or fifth class. If it weren't for the break for lunch, she would definitely need a two-hour nap.

The classroom was quiet and peaceful; every little sound was clear. She heard the soft scrape of Shen Nian's chair being moved, the rustling of clothes, and a slight breeze brushing past. Even with her eyes closed, Xia Yanchun knew Shen Nian had come to stand beside her.

Did he think she was asleep...?

Only when the hair by her ear was brushed aside and her hidden earlobe was uncovered by Shen Nian did Xia Yanchun's heart begin to race, a little thrill bubbling up inside.

"Huff..."

She could hear Shen Nian take a heavy breath, getting closer and closer. Then, her ear was quietly taken into his mouth.

To do such a thing to a female classmate who's fast asleep—Shen Nian, you big pervert!

Fortunately, Shen Nian only held it for a moment. After he let go, Xia Yanchun hummed and fussed, pretending to have been woken by him. First, she acted dazed, then 'belatedly' covered her damp earlobe, looking at the still-smiling Shen Nian with an 'incredulous' expression.

"Ew, you're so gross!" Xia Yanchun said huffily, her face flushed like a little tomato. "Waking me up, I'll kick you flying, believe it or not..."

"Whoa, you were really asleep just now?"

"Of... of course I was asleep!"

"I thought you were faking it." Shen Nian leaned closer, saying dopily, "Really asleep?"

"Really."

"Who are you trying to fool? As if I can't tell." Shen Nian called her bluff directly. Never mind his Agility +3 super perception; even without it, he knew Xia Yanchun was pretending to be asleep.

It's quite obvious to tell pretending from real sleep. If you observe carefully, you can tell. When he approached, Xia Yanchun's eyelids had clearly twitched, and her pupils were darting around.

Especially since he had been waking up early these past few days, doing nothing but lying there watching Xia Yanchun sleep... he could tell at a glance.

"What are you talking about? What good would pretending to sleep do me?" Xia Yanchun argued, her tone bold despite her lack of a solid reason.

"You could be entrapment fishing, tricking me into biting your ear, then pretending I woke you up, seizing the chance to make me call you 'big sister'." Shen Nian answered instantly.

These sworn rivals each had eight hundred schemes up their sleeves. Shen Nian used to be in deficit by two hundred, but now they were evenly matched, each possessing a full eight hundred.

"I had no such intention..." Xia Yanchun poked Shen Nian's cheek and sighed. "Oh well, I'll forgive you this time. Don't you dare wake me up from my nap next time, got it?"

"Okay, okay, whatever you say. I need to go buy some snacks. Now you can sleep peacefully."

Only then did she notice Shen Nian had his backpack on. Seeing him about to leave the classroom, Xia Yanchun quickly called out to stop him.

"What's up?"

"Come here."

Shen Nian took two steps back, bent down, and brought his face close to hers, their eyes at different levels.

Xia Yanchun pursed her lips, wrapped her arms around his neck, and gently bit his earlobe, leaving a faint tooth mark and a bit of damp warmth.

This made Shen Nian blush. He wiped the dampness from his earlobe and laughed. "Can't stand to lose out even a little, huh?"

"I'm going to sleep." Xia Yanchun answered evasively, burying her pink-flushed face in the crook of her arm.

"Alright, alright, good afternoon, good afternoon. Happy now?"

"Go on. Buy me two duck feet, the black duck flavor."

"I'll buy you ten."

"..."

The classroom quieted down. Xia Yanchun was really going to sleep now.

Resting her head on the fluffy pillow, Xia Yanchun gradually grew drowsy. Her mind grew muddled, and she inexplicably recalled what had just happened.

Why did I bite Shen Nian's ear...?

I just called him a pervert, so by doing that, I ended up insulting myself too...

Xia Yanchun pursed her lips, feeling that Shen Nian was truly a master manipulator.

She almost got conditioned by him.

I must scold him a couple of times when he gets back!

Shen Nian left the school gate and drove straight to the mall.

With yesterday's experience, buying jewelry today was much faster. Direct transaction, direct pickup, straight back home to stash the identical jewelry boxes in the drawer.

One set for mom, one for dad. Let them secretly rejoice over them when he takes them home for winter break.

Just thinking about his parents being moved and hugging him, Shen Nian couldn't help but hum lightly.

This should earn him a ten-day 'no-scolding pass'. Even if he lazed around at home for ten whole days during winter break, he wouldn't be nagged. For those ten days, every day would feel like the first day he returned home.

With a bit of spending money left, Shen Nian directly topped up a game.

After completing the mission progress, the system panel popped up. His phone vibrated simultaneously, and another twenty thousand appeared in his bank card.

In the blink of an eye, the money in his card was enough to buy a small car...

The sky was azure, with clouds drifting leisurely.

Shen Nian bought some snacks, not forgetting Xia Yanchun's duck feet.

He gently pushed open the classroom's back door only to find Xia Yanchun already awake, sitting dazedly in her seat, lost in thought. Hearing his movement, Xia Yanchun's gaze shifted over.

"The bell hasn't even rung. Why are you awake so early?"

"Don't know. Not very sleepy." Xia Yanchun muttered softly, "Shen Nian, my arm's numb..."

"Skill issue. Mine isn't. Here, let me help you massage it."

Seeing Shen Nian come over with such a serious expression, Xia Yanchun wondered if she had misheard him earlier.

To actually curse someone twice while showing concern—had Shen Nian become utterly shameless?

Shen Nian's fingertips landed on her arm, pressing and kneading bit by bit. Xia Yanchun had originally intended to sulk a little, but with Shen Nian's proper attitude, she held back the simmering annoyance.

Taking advantage of the fact that the bell hadn't rung yet and no one would come, she boldly leaned her small body towards Shen Nian, her weight pressing against him.

Sniff, sniff. Shen Nian smelled nice.

The more affectionate she became, the more subtle Shen Nian's emotions became. Adjusting his posture, he rested his forehead against the girl's.

"My dear Chun."

"Don't you dare... not in the classroom."

"I didn't say anything."

"I know what you're thinking even if you don't say it."

"Six-six-six, mind-reader unlocked?"

"..."

The flirtatious atmosphere vanished instantly. Xia Yanchun's little fists clenched.
