You are all bad women! Don't come over!-Chapter 35 - 33: Should Honest People Deserve to be Taken Advantage of?
Shen Mochen shuddered and hurried to retract his neck. It was not just because his neck was sensitive, but also because there was a mark left there by Yin Caiyu.
Although in his heart, he and Yin Caiyu were the real couple, he was officially Catherine’s boyfriend. If their affair was exposed, Miss Catherine would probably dump his body in the river!
"Kajiena…" Shen Mochen hesitated over his words, "you don’t really like me that much, do you?"
"Why would you think that?" Catherine tilted her head, her eyes as deep as a blue lake, "If I didn’t like you, why would I agree to your wish to date me?"
Shen Mochen found her words oddly phrased—what did she mean by agreeing to his wish to date? Princess, I didn’t expect you to be so proud!
Although it was somewhat cute, this was not good news for Shen Mochen.
Even though Yin Caiyu said a bunch of nonsensical things, Shen Mochen did not intend to accept them. He just wanted to follow his own plan, carefully and stably decrease Catherine’s fondness of him, then make her tired of him and break up.
If Catherine didn’t like him that much, this plan would be a lot smoother, but if Catherine did like him, then it would really be troublesome!
"Can I ask why you like me?" Shen Mochen reluctantly asked.
Catherine raised her eyebrows, a hint of hesitation in her eyes, and said seriously, "Does liking someone have to have a reason?"
Ah, what… what kind of third-rate idol drama line is that! There definitely must be a reason! Even if it’s just for looks, it’s still a reason!
Shen Mochen felt that he didn’t quite understand Catherine; inexplicably dating him, inexplicably saying she liked him… Though so far, whether changing seats or sharing tables was for his good, he still felt something was off.
Before coming to First Middle School, he was often liked by girls, but Catherine’s "like" was unfamiliar to him.
The day’s lessons passed quickly since Shen Mochen’s books, not brought home over the weekend, were all soaked, so he spent the entire day with Catherine.
Not to mention Gao Le, who was gritting his teeth, even Liu Bo expressed envy, jealousy, and hatred, not understanding the distress in Shen Mochen’s heart.
Maybe because Catherine was there, Gao Le was unusually well-behaved all day, which saved Shen Mochen a lot of trouble.
In the evening after school, everyone packed their bags to go home. Catherine casually said to Shen Mochen, "Are you going shopping now?"
She was referring to the logistics shopping for the school anniversary. Shen Mochen was nominally the logistics committee member, but in reality, he was just running errands.
"Ah, yes…"
As soon as Shen Mochen brought it up, he felt irritated. Don’t push the troublesome things to me! Does being honest mean you have to be bullied? Does being honest mean you have to be taken advantage of? Can’t this world be a bit kinder to the honest people?
"What are you going to buy today?" Catherine tilted her head.
"Going to buy costumes first today. If there is time, maybe look at the wallpaper."
"When do you plan to go shopping?"
"I’ll go home for dinner first, probably around six…"
Catherine’s eyes dropped as she smiled and gently patted Shen Mochen’s shoulder, "I see, I got it."
You know it, big deal, you’re not the one running around. Shen Mochen thought to himself.
He watched Catherine leave the classroom and quickly packed his own bag.
"I gotta run too, ha!"
Liu Bo called out to Shen Mochen and darted out of the classroom without waiting for a response, as if fleeing.
Shen Mochen tilted his head and suddenly received a text from Liu Bo: "Someone is targeting you, be careful. I might not be able to help you this time. You’d better get along well with Catherine, she might be the only one who can save you now."

"What’s this saving talk, that’s a bit too exaggerated…" Shen Mochen looked down and chuckled.
Unnoticed by anyone, his gaze was sharp under his thick bangs, like a gleaming sharp knife. Even Liu Bo didn’t dare to talk to him openly, it seemed there really was someone powerful involved.
It took Shen Mochen a little over twenty minutes to walk home. After climbing the stairs, he pulled out his keys to unlock the door.
"What should I eat tonight? Maybe I’ll just make some instant noodles, drop in a couple of eggs, and slice up some ham?" Unfortunately, there were no vegetables, or else a combination of meat and vegetables would have been even better.
"Little Mochen!"
Behind him came a familiar voice. He turned his head to see Yuncui from across the hall, poking half her body out from behind her door and smiling at him.
"Hello, Teacher Cai."
Yuncui tapped on Mochen’s head a bit unhappily, "When it’s just us, you can just call me Sister Cai!"
Mochen rubbed his head and chuckled, "Sister Cai, you’re back early today."
Yuncui straightened her back proudly, her face breaking into a triumphant smile. "I’m a teacher, so I can come back early after my afternoon classes! Have you eaten dinner?"
Mochen read the room and deliberately shook his head, "Not yet, I was just about to boil some instant noodles."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Yuncui hurriedly grabbed Mochen’s hand and pulled him towards her home.
"Why eat instant noodles? They lack nutrients! You’re at a growing age, how can you eat that every day? I just finished cooking dinner, come and eat with me!"
"No, no, I couldn’t possibly!" Mochen stepped into Yuncui’s home and was greeted by an enticing aroma.
"It’s okay, from now on eat lunch in the school cafeteria, and in the morning and evening come eat with me!"
"This, how could I impose!"
Yuncui glared playfully, pretending to be angry, "What’s there to impose about? You call me your sister, so you must listen to me! Whether it’s cooking for one or two, I have to cook anyway! Usually, I eat alone and it gets quite lonely. Consider it keeping me company!"
"Um... Thank you, Sister Cai!" Mochen’s voice quivered, deeply moved.
She’s indeed a great... good person!
Yuncui had just moved in; her furnishings were very simple. It was Mochen’s first visit, and he didn’t look around much. He initially wanted to help serve the rice, but Yuncui pushed him out, insisting he just sit and wait.
This is how a sister should be, Yin Caiyu, why can’t you learn from her! Mochen thought to himself.
With Yuncui as a genuine person, Mochen wouldn’t need to cook every day! Was this compensation from the heavens for being forcefully slept by Yin Caiyu?
"Dinner is ready, come and eat."
Yuncui called Mochen over. She had simmered a pot of coarse grain porridge, fried a dish of potatoes with meat, and had a plate of mixed bean sprouts. She had thought during the day that Mochen, being a boy, might not cook well, so she made dinner for two.
After dinner, Yuncui gave Mochen a set of her house keys, allowing him free access.
"Are you going to go back and do homework after eating?" asked Yuncui.
"I have to go shopping. The school anniversary is coming up, I’m in charge of logistics for our class activities; starting next week, I’ll have a lot of challenging tasks to handle..." Mochen sighed deeply.
"What will you be mainly doing in logistics?"
"Coordinating, planning, purchasing, negotiating, and accounting, stuff like that!"
"Oh my, all these tasks for just you?"
"Yes..."
"Then I’ll go with you!" Yuncui immediately slapped her chest.
Mochen glanced at her chest and averted his eyes, wondering why it seemed more majestic than during the day... Ah, it must be because she wore a sports bra during the day and changed out of it when she got home. My goodness, it would be horrifying if she wasn’t wearing particularly loose clothing right now!
As they chatted and laughed, a black luxury sedan slowly parked downstairs. A girl with pale golden long hair got out of the car and calmly closed the door. She checked the time; still half an hour until six, he probably hadn’t come out yet.
When he comes down by himself soon, he’ll surely get a scare!
