Looking at the boy in front of her, Madoka sighed slightly… She had known about this kind of thing for a long time. After all, this guy had done a lot of things like this in the original world… In another aspect.

Although he didn’t betray the girl’s feelings, he was still two-timing… Not only his apprentice, but he also didn’t let himself go.

But she couldn’t blame Xia Zhi for anything. Compared to the boy, she was more outrageous for finally accepting everything.

So, she didn’t come here to call for punishment.

“Just be a little careful. This kind of thing won’t have a good impact on you.” Madoka shook his head slightly and kindly reminded the boy.

Xia Zhi didn’t really care about that kind of thing. In comparison, he was more curious about…

“Teacher Madoka, don’t you want to fulfill your duties as a teacher?” he asked.

“What responsibilities?” Madoka looked puzzled.

“For example, advising me not to have impure relationships between men and women?” Xia Zhi tilted his head.

Can I persuade you?

Madoka rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.

Xia Zhi thought about it and it seemed to be true.

“That’s right.” Madoka seemed to remember something and said suddenly.

“What’s wrong?” Xia Zhi looked at her puzzledly.

“When you go back later, call the other students on this list to my office one by one.” Madoka said as he handed him a list filled with a row of classmates’ names.

“…”

Looking at the list in his hand, Xia Zhi fell silent.

It seems that it’s not that she is not fulfilling her duties, but she is simply biased towards him.

…….

Chapter 856 Kato Megumi’s “Coping Strategy”

After a while, Xia Zhi returned to the classroom.

As soon as he came back, he attracted the attention of other classmates… He usually has no presence, do these guys like gossip so much?

Xia Zhi complained and sat back in his seat.

“Xiazhi, did Mr. Mafuyu say anything?”

Seeing that he finally came back from the office, Kato Megumi asked a little worriedly.

“Don’t worry.” Xia Zhi comforted her, “You know, Teacher Zhendong favors me the most.”

Despite this, the worry on the girl’s face did not subside.

Although she knew that Teacher Madoka was always biased towards the boy, the problem this time was not with the teacher.

On the other side, Xia Zhi lowered his head and looked at the list in his hand with some distress.

Obviously, calling people to the teacher’s office to be scolded is a chore, and calling students one by one with a whole list is even more likely to offend people…Don’t look at her appearance in front of him, but in the eyes of other students, Zhendong has always been cold and strict, full of teacher’s majesty, and an ice-mountain teacher who is particularly respected by students.

Xia Zhi didn’t care about offending anyone, but the problem was… he couldn’t match the names of most of the students on the list?

For someone like him who is basically isolated from social circles in the class and is committed to achieving the achievement of “not being able to remember all the names of classmates before graduation”, it is really too difficult for him to call people one by one.

But this was exactly the task assigned to him by his dear teacher Mando.

How to do this?

Xia Zhi thought about it and waved to the squad leader not far away.

“Eh?”

The girl who was secretly watching with her classmates saw the boy waving at her. She was stunned for a moment. After being reminded by the classmate next to her, she hesitated and came to him.

“Um…what’s the matter, Xia Zhi-san?”

“Teacher Madoka said that all the students listed here should go to her office one by one.” Xia Zhi said as he handed her the list.

The girl looked down at the list in her hand with a confused expression… She seemed to see her own name on it?

“…”

Seeing the girl walking away worriedly, Kato Megumi looked at the boy and asked, “What was that just now?”

“The purge list.” Xia Zhi answered casually and took out the lunch box that Xia Zhi had prepared for him from his schoolbag.

“…?”

Kato Megumi tilted her head slightly.

“Kidding.”

Seeing the puzzled expression on the girl’s face, Xia Zhi chuckled and then comforted her: “Don’t worry, I checked it, and your name is not on it.”

The girl shook her head gently: “That’s not what I’m worried about…”

She raised her head and glanced at the students not far away from here from time to time. She looked at them and showed a worried expression.

“After this incident, Xia Zhi’s reputation might become very bad.”

“Just don’t care about it.” Xia Zhi stuffed a piece of fish cake into his mouth and said vaguely.

To some extent, this rumor is not wrong. Although he did not abandon her after having sex with her, he is indeed a scumbag…

Xia Zhi, a self-aware student, thought to himself.

“But I care.”

The girl’s voice came from his ear. Xia Zhi raised his head and met a pair of black eyes close to him.

Kato Hui was looking into his eyes, with a serious look in her eyes: “I don’t want Xia Zhi to be said like this by others.”

“…”

Xia Zhi swallowed the food in his mouth and continued: “Thank you Hui for thinking about me so much, but that’s not your problem.”

Strictly speaking, it was his and Victoria’s responsibility. We didn’t pay much attention to it at the time. In addition, he himself didn’t care much about this aspect, so he didn’t consider the current situation. Kato Megumi herself was actually just a “victim” who was implicated.

however……

“But I care a lot.” The girl looked at him and repeated.

“I would feel very uncomfortable if other people gossiped about Xia Zhi or even said bad things about him behind his back because of me.”

“I told you that’s not yours…”

Halfway through his words, Xia Zhi paused as he saw the serious look on the girl’s face. He then sighed slightly and asked, “What do you think of me?”

“…So, what are you going to do?”

“It’s very simple.”

Kato Hui seemed to be prepared. She picked up a small piece of sakura shrimp from her lunch box and handed it to the boy.

Xia Zhi opened his mouth and swallowed it out of habit. The sweet and delicious taste spread in his mouth. He seemed to hear a small exclamation from not far away.

…. ….. 0

“Just keep pretending to be lovers~”

The girl said, winking at him.

“In this way, Xia Zhi won’t become a ‘scumbag’, right?”

“…”

Xia Zhi feels that the girl’s definition of a scumbag may be a little narrow.

……

“Yeah, you’re recovering well.”

Elsewhere, in the school’s health room, the teacher briefly checked the bruise on Kong Yinzi’s ankle, nodded slightly, and said in a relaxed tone:

“I’ll probably be able to walk again in one night.”

This sounds like good news, but

When Kong Yinzi heard this, the expression on her face froze for a moment.

It will take another night before I can walk…

Doesn’t that mean that after school this afternoon I still have to be carried back by that guy?

“Xia Zhi…”

She was silent for a moment, then spoke to the black-haired girl beside her.

“Hmm?” Xia Zhi looked at her puzzledly.

“Let’s take a taxi back this afternoon. I’ll pay for the fare.”

“Okay, can you give my brother a ride?” Xia Zhi readily accepted it and asked happily.

Kong Yinzi: …

I wanted to take a taxi just to avoid seeing him.

……Several.

Chapter 857: Classroom Consolation from a Senior

Seeing Xia Zhi and Kato Megumi becoming “close” again, the discussions of other people in the class suddenly died down.

The rumors about Xia Zhi being a “scumbag” have also turned into comments like “It turned out to be just a quarrel between lovers.”

Originally, they didn’t really pay attention to these two people. The reason they paid special attention to them today, apart from the topic of “love”, was simply because the fact that “he dumped her after just one day of dating” was too suitable for gossip.

Since everyone knew that this was just a quarrel between a couple and that the two had already “reconciled”, everyone shifted their focus away from the two and turned to which traitor had betrayed everyone…even Teacher Mafuyu called all the rumored couples in the class but didn’t mention Kato Megumi, and no one noticed.

“How is it? Very effective, right?” asked Kato Megumi.

It is indeed effective.

　”Four, five, zero,” Xia Zhi thought.

However, this cannot be considered as “solving the problem” but rather “maintaining the status quo”, right?

Admittedly, as long as they continue to “date” for a period of time and then “break up”, it would be a normal breakup between a couple and would not seem so abrupt.

But how long will this period of time last?

Just as Xia Zhi was thinking this, the next moment he felt a soft and gentle touch on his face.

He was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he saw the girl approaching him, gently and carefully wiping the oil and sauce from the corners of her mouth with a tissue. Her serious expression and natural movements made it seem as if the two of them really were a couple who had been together for a long time.

“Okay, it’s clean now~” Kato Megumi said happily with a satisfied smile.

Looking at the smile on the girl’s face, Xia Zhi felt as if his heart was touched.

“……benefit.”

“Ok?”

The girl tilted her head slightly, and the soft hair on her forehead swayed gently with her movement.

“Marry me?” Xia Zhi asked after thinking for a while.

“Well… isn’t the progress a little too fast?” Kato Megumi said somewhat confusedly.

It seems so.

Compared to breaking up in one day, getting married in one day is also considered to be the other extreme, right?

Xia Zhi was thinking, and soon he heard the bell for class ringing. He greeted the girl, then turned around and sat back in his seat.

However, what he didn’t notice when he turned his head was that the girl’s cheeks behind him had already turned red.

……

The afternoon class didn’t include Mr. Mafuyu’s world history class, so it was very boring.

Listening to the math teacher’s lecture, Xia Zhi yawned.

It’s not good to always sleep in class. After thinking about it, he took out the homework that he had not finished last night from his schoolbag and started to make up for it.
