Shen Mochen gently pushed open the library’s main door and walked to the desk he usually studied at. Catherine wasn’t here, but her books were laid out on the table.

Dappled sunlight filtered through the trees outside and gently poured into the empty library through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"You’re quite late, huh? I saw you’ve already had your lunch," came Catherine’s characteristically slightly flippant voice from behind him.

"Oh, I was just…" Shen Mochen instinctively sought an excuse to brush it off, but he halted halfway as he remembered how easily Catherine could see through his lies. He swallowed hard and muttered vaguely, "I had some other matters."

Actually, lying didn’t matter at the moment—Catherine was clearly distracted and hadn’t really listened to him. She simply pulled out a chair, ready to study.

Shen Mochen asked, "Where were you just now?"

Catherine replied indifferently, "To the restroom."

"How have you been feeling lately?"

"Very healthy."

"Oh… still, drink more hot water."

"Thanks, I prefer drinking cold water."

The two sat in silence, quietly studying, the soft scratch of their pens flowing on paper.

Capricious, stubborn, contrary, lonely… Shen Mochen glanced at Catherine.

To say or not to say, indeed she was a bit capricious... Oh, why just a bit? She was extremely capricious!

Knowing that forcing it wouldn’t bear sweetness, yet stubbornly refusing to break up, inexplicably being contrarily alone, not knowing with whom she was sulking.

Fuzi’s words echoed in Shen Mochen’s mind, and he couldn’t help but recall the scene of walking Catherine home, surrounded by human lights everywhere, yet she walked alone into the dark silence.

Actually, there was no need to pity her. She was so wealthy, a noble of Roman’s class, why would Shen Mochen, a mere commoner, pity her?

Shen Mochen knew this, yet he couldn’t help but feel lonely on her behalf. At least he had Caiyu, but she only had herself.

She didn’t have real friends either. Everyone was in awe of her, and she thought little of them.

Shen Mochen had only known Catherine as a genius, excelling in studies, sports, and extracurricular activities alike. It was the first time he learned the reason behind it.

Trying to prove that she could live well alone? That reason seemed like a sulk of a child, somewhat adorable yet somewhat pitiful.

Speaking of it, Fuzi was rather strange. She should have looked down on him, but had spoken so much to him all at once, just because Catherine was in a bad mood?

"Cough, cough! Hey, are you jealous?"

Shen Mochen coughed heavily, grinning mischievously.

Catherine looked up and glared at Shen Mochen, her gaze chilling, "What did you say?"

"Did you see me having dinner at Teacher Cai’s house and get jealous, so you’ve been upset these past few days?"

"…You’re really smart. I am jealous, so as my boyfriend, how are you going to apologize to me?"

Catherine paused for a moment, then lifted Shen Mochen’s face, biting her lip with a smile.

Shen Mochen was trying to justify himself, "I am completely innocent with Teacher Cai, as clear as day, I just went out to have a meal! She cooks whether she is alone or with someone else, and I was just..."

Before he could finish, Catherine grabbed Shen Mochen’s lips, and her blue eyes slightly blinked, "Are you busy this weekend?"

"Weekend? Yes, I’m busy, I usually stay at home studying all day... But this weekend I might have to go out shopping with you, oh, I’m super excited!"

Catherine looked at Shen Mochen’s expression and inexplicably smiled, then lowered her head and said, "Hmm, study."

He was lying, but it didn’t matter. These were so-called white lies, which she had seen plenty of.

It wasn’t just because she saw Shen Mochen and Yuncui eating together; her mood was more about herself.

She hated her own self-satisfaction, especially the unbearable awkwardness after being rejected.

That day in the car, just because Shen Mochen had said a few nice words, she got carried away and even invited him over to her house. It wasn’t until she heard his evasive answers that she realized they weren’t that close, and he actually wasn’t interested.

That was incredibly embarrassing, and the humiliation was all her own doing.

In the end, it was just a one-sided affection on her part. If Shen Mochen really had to choose, he would probably choose Yuncui.

He had no feelings for her; he was only coerced by her.

She felt a bit sad, probably because of her gloominess.

Shen Mochen bowed his head to look through the notes from previous seniors, unsure how to console her. He really didn’t have experience in comforting girls, and even the methods he used for Caiyu and Yin Huailian wouldn’t work here, as they weren’t that close.

He could feel the murderous intent of Fuzi hiding in the shadows, and he could only smile wryly to himself. Staring at me like that doesn’t help, this is too much to ask!

"I’ll think of a way when we go out tonight," Shen Mochen wrote on paper. He wasn’t sure if Fuzi could see it.

Lunch break was nearly over, and the two exchanged brief greetings before leaving the library one after the other.

Class A’s last lesson in the afternoon was PE, which the boys of Class A had long been looking forward to.

First Middle School was a highly interdisciplinary school, strictly speaking, it usually had three PE lessons per week. One "physical fitness class," one "tennis class," and one "martial arts class."

However, except for the "physical fitness class," the other two lessons were subject to change—for instance, one would change to a "swimming class" in summer and to "figure skating" in winter, and sometimes they even offered "sailing lessons," so there were a variety of options.

And the PE class taught by Yuncui was the physical fitness class.

Generally speaking, the physical fitness class was the dullest of the three, but since Yuncui arrived, it had immediately become the favorite lesson for the students at First Middle School, especially the boys.

As the second-ranking newcomer on the Goddess List, teacher Yuncui, even in her loose sports outfit, couldn’t hide her exceedingly impressive figure. Moreover, her voice was gentle, and she wasn’t afraid to discipline, making her the perfect dream wife.

"Is everyone here? Let’s start the roll call!"

On the playground, Yuncui coughed forcefully, trying to appear authoritative, but her gentle and innocent face couldn’t look stern, and the students giggled fearlessly.

"Teacher Cai, actually, counting heads is enough; there’s no need to call the roll!" one girl reminded her, laughing.

"Let’s call it anyway." Yuncui held the roster, diligent in her work.

She called out each name, and the students responded accordingly. When she read Shen Mochen’s name, she deliberately elongated the sound and winked at him.

Shen Mochen bowed his head and responded as Catherine looked back at him.
