Chapter 94 - 093: It turns out that Zhizhi also has this kind of quirky hobby. "It's okay." Shi Wei held her tightly for a long moment before reluctantly letting her go. Wanting to put an end to the nerve-racking situation as soon as possible, he quickly started the car again and drove her to the next place. This time, after she left, Shi Wei called Chen Cai on a video call. He instructed Chen Cai to point the lens at the screen, staring at the footage without blinking. As expected, the surveillance was hacked again. If the first time could be chalked up to coincidence, then what about the second time? Shi Wei propped his chin up, his expression unreadable as he stared absentmindedly at the schoolbag on the passenger seat. He clearly remembered that the little girl had left without carrying any sort of computer. But if it wasn't her, then who else could it be? Sighing deeply, Shi Wei decided to stop overthinking it. No matter how many secrets she was hiding, or what burdens she carried, as long as she was willing to stay by his side, that was enough for him. For those who remain overly aware and lucid at all times, pain is inevitable. Only by embracing confusion and contentment can one find enduring happiness. Yu Zhi had stolen quite a lot of things, and from various locations. By the time they'd returned everything, it was almost 1 a.m. After a quick wash-up, she collapsed onto the bed, her heavy eyelids gazing at the chandelier hanging overhead as she prepared to drift off to sleep. "Zhizhi, can I come in?" Shi Wei's deep voice sounded from outside the room. She responded affirmatively, and the man, dressed in a robe, strode in with purpose, even carrying a hint of urgency. Yu Zhi looked up at him. "You want to sleep with me?" Shi Wei lowered his gaze, cautiously asking, "Can I?" "It didn't rain tonight." She'd even checked the weather forecast; it wouldn't rain anytime soon. Shi Wei: "..." He curled his fingers, his thin lips forming a tight line, looking as though he had some unspeakable issue. Taking two steps forward, Shi Wei lifted his gaze again, and those slightly upturned, alluring peach-blossom eyes were tinged with an inexplicable trace of grievance. Yu Zhi could never resist this expression of his. She quickly sat up, lifting the edge of the blanket beside her. As she gestured for him to come up, she also added a gentle reassurance, "Don't be scared, I'll keep you company." "Mhm." Without hesitation, Shi Wei climbed in and, before she could even shut her eyes, shifted bit by bit closer to her side. He reached out a hand, placing it under the pillow to encircle her waist, pulling her firmly into his embrace. Yu Zhi barely had time to react before finding her head resting on his arm, pressed snugly against his chest. When she looked up, her eyes met his impeccably defined jawline and the faintly seductive bob of his Adam's apple. Yu Zhi pressed her lips together, but her gaze lingered on his throat. Her fingertips curled slightly, as though suppressing the urge to reach out and touch it. Shi Wei lowered his head, catching her yet-unwithdrawn gaze immediately: "Zhizhi, what are you looking at?" There was teasing in his tone, and his eyes gleamed with a teasing warmth. "Nothing." Yu Zhi's eyes darted away, her behavior uncannily resembling a small child caught red-handed doing something naughty. Shi Wei took her hand and guided it to his nose, then slowly moved it to his lips and chin, finally resting it on his neck without moving further. He clearly felt the slight tremor in the girl's fingertips when they grazed his Adam's apple. Discovering her interest, the amusement in Shi Wei's eyes deepened further. "So Zhizhi has this kind of quirk." Flustered, Yu Zhi quickly withdrew her hand, rendered momentarily speechless by his teasing and left to quietly stew in her own embarrassment. Shi Wei lightly pinched her chin, tilting her head up to force her into meeting his gaze. His thumb brushed across her lips, his eyes darkening noticeably. "Zhizhi," he murmured, his upturned peach-blossom eyes glowing seductively under the faint light, utterly beguiling. When his sharp, handsome face moved closer, Yu Zhi instinctively shut her eyes. This time, she could tangibly feel the difference in his demeanor. Beneath the gentleness lay an undeniable possessiveness, as if he wanted to consume her every essence down to her core. "Mmph..." Yu Zhi's eyes widened as she pushed against his shoulder, beginning to feel as though she couldn't breathe. Her reaction reeled Shi Wei back to his senses. He leaned back abruptly, creating space between them. Looking at her slightly swollen lips, he appeared both regretful and irritated with himself, patting her back gently to help her catch her breath. Yu Zhi gave him an exasperated glare, her lips pursed with a hint of grievance. "No more kissing." The soft murmur of her complaint was like a kitten pawing at Shi Wei's heart, leaving an itch he couldn't scratch. "Alright, sleep now." Shi Wei tightened his arms around her, his gaze settling on the top of her head. He was afraid that one more glance at her would tempt him into doing something that might upset her again. The moonlight outside was hazy, like a thin veil draping over the entire villa. Its cool, pale glow spilled over the branches outside the window, casting fragmented shadows onto the ground. As the breeze stirred, the scattered shadows rippled like shimmering waves on a lake surface, their curves dancing gently. Inside, the two nestled together, accompanied by the chirping of crickets and the rustling of the wind, drifted into peaceful slumber. ** At school, rumors about the Unlucky Star were spreading like wildfire. Whether in the cafeteria, on the sports field, or in the classroom, groups of students could always be found gossiping about it. Everyone who had interacted with Yu Zhi over the past two days either tripped without reason or inexplicably got injured. In short, no one was spared. This silenced the minority who had previously dismissed the superstition and opposed such rumors, leaving them reluctant to speak out any further. As the subject of all the gossip, Yu Zhi watched their pointing and whispering with cold detachment, unfazed and even finding the newfound peace somewhat pleasant. She continued her daily routines as if the rumors had nothing to do with her. But the calmer she seemed, the more someone hidden in the dark grew unable to sit still. "Little Zhi!" Qin Huai rushed into the classroom, his steps hurried and his expression uncharacteristically serious. Yu Zhi looked up. "What's wrong?" "I just heard that a dozen or so students went to the administrative office to file a complaint against you!" Qin Huai exclaimed, panting for breath. Apparently, someone had instigated them. One by one, they seemed bewitched, demanding the school expel Yu Zhi to prevent further harm from her fate. Now they were all gathered at the office, threatening to escalate to their parents if no satisfactory resolution was provided. The students of Shengde were, if not from wealthy families, at least far better off than the average household. If they cited academic disruption as a reason, their parents would likely support them in taking down this so-called Unlucky Star. "Don't worry, let them fuss." Yu Zhi calmly replied after hearing him out, then lowered her head again to continue solving her problems. From start to finish, she didn't even show a flicker of surprise, as if what Qin Huai had said had nothing to do with her. Qin Huai couldn't match her composure. "What if they take this to the principal? What do we do then?"
