Saturday, St. Andros Academy was bustling with people.

The academy had opened up a portion of its grounds for the school festival's charity performance.

A charity event starring two popular beautiful girls, Dorothy and Zervanie, was bound to attract a high level of attention.

Felyn could still remember the giant poster hanging on the teaching building when he went to school this morning.

On the poster, Zervanie and Dorothy looked just like unreachable stars.

However, the young lady who was sweet in public was actually very willful, and the young lady who was gentle in public actually had a perverse possessiveness.

Having popular beautiful girls show only their private side to him sounded sweet, but why did both of these young ladies only show him their bad sides?

Felyn arrived at his secret spot, which was behind the bicycle shed.

As Felyn opened his lunch box, he caught a glimpse of a familiar pink figure in the distance.

She stood far away under a tree, her gaze directed towards him.

Viloti had been coming to school recently because of the charity performance.

For the past few days, she would watch Felyn from a distance. But as soon as Felyn approached, she would immediately turn and run, as if afraid of what he might say to her.

She didn't reply to any of the messages he sent via the communication sigil at all. At this rate, there was no way to communicate with Viloti.

"She's here again..." Felyn put down his lunch box and opened the communication sigil.

Viloti, today I met... He edited a long message on the sigil, giving a rambling account of his recent daily life, and then sent it to Viloti.

When he saw the pink-haired young lady lower her head to look at the sigil, Felyn quietly approached her.

After Viloti finished reading the long string of messages from Felyn, she looked up to find that he was no longer there.

"Viloti, why have you been avoiding me lately?"

Felyn's voice came from behind Viloti. Her shoulders trembled violently, and her slender neck instinctively shrank.

She turned her head, her amber eyes showing panic.

Viloti quickly covered her ears with both hands and took a step back.

"I-I'm not avoiding you."

Seeing Viloti like this, Felyn suddenly felt like a bad guy, forcing a trembling beautiful girl to do something unpleasant.

The next step should be to forcibly lift Viloti's chin with his hand, look at her flustered expression, listen to the whimper-like sound of a small animal escaping her throat, and say, "Woman, you've provoked me."

What a domineering CEO.

In reality, Viloti was the CEO, and he was the kept pretty boy.

"Felyn, please let me go..." Viloti put her hands down, tightly gripping the hem of her red and white school uniform, biting her lower lip as she pleaded with Felyn.

Don't say it, just don't say it.

Felyn could understand those domineering CEOs now. Who could resist bullying her a little more?

"Miss Zervanie is here, don't, don't let her see us..."

Seeing that Felyn had no intention of letting her go, Viloti pointed behind him.

"Zervanie?"

The honest Felyn didn't think Viloti would lie to him. When he turned around, Viloti seized the opportunity and fled from his side.

Her long pink hair drew a beautiful arc in the air, the jogging girl bursting with a vitality that could make one feel young again.

"She ran away..."

Felyn watched Viloti's back, not chasing after her.

Viloti still needed time to process things. She was afraid Felyn would talk about the contract, and also afraid he would break off their relationship. This was a hurdle she needed to overcome.

But she couldn't help but want to see Felyn.

Thus, the conflicted Viloti acted in a conflicted manner.

However, Viloti hadn't lied to Felyn, because Zervanie had indeed arrived.

"Felyn, what are you looking at?" Zervanie patted Felyn's shoulder and also looked curiously in the direction of his gaze.

Viloti's figure had already disappeared, leaving only the empty campus.

"Nothing. By the way, why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be performing on stage?"

Felyn and Zervanie walked back behind the bicycle shed together. He sat on the steps and opened the lunch box from just now.

"It'll be a while before I go on stage. I'm a little nervous, so I wanted to walk around the school. I didn't expect to run into you here." Zervanie recited her prepared lines, her gaze falling on Felyn's food.

Speaking of which, she hadn't eaten Felyn's home-cooked food in a long time.

During the contract period, Zervanie was well taken care of by Felyn. She liked to eat fish but couldn't pick out the bones, so Felyn would pick them out for her one by one, then mash the fish meat and feed it to her spoonful by spoonful.

When Zervanie thought back to that time, she felt that she had been so happy then.

Now, let alone having Felyn pick out fish bones for her, even if Felyn threw a raw fish at her to gnaw on, Zervanie would feel that he finally cared about her.

If someone questioned it, Zervanie would most likely retort like this:

He was afraid I was hungry, so he gave me fish to eat. I'm so touched.

What do you people know? I'm not love-struck. So what if there are parasites? That's also him wanting me to have an extra meal. I can eat several kinds of ingredients in one meal, doesn't that mean he cares about me?

"Have you eaten?" Felyn had no idea what kind of brainstorm was going on in Zervanie's head beside him.

"Not yet. I plan to eat in the lounge."

"You don't cook for yourself?"

"Huh? I rarely cook for myself... Felyn! You're trying to say my cooking is poisonous, aren't you!"

Zervanie, having reacted, puffed out her cheeks and waved her fists. Felyn quickly dodged.

Just as Felyn wanted to get away from the bristling silver-white-haired young lady, the communication sigil in his pocket rang.

[Big Brother Felyn, where are you?]

Felyn's contact name for Dorothy was "Her Imperial Highness the Princess," because he was afraid that if he was ever really kidnapped by Dorothy one day, she would find the nickname he gave her.

If it was some unflattering nickname, Felyn felt he probably wouldn't live long.

[Dorothy, I had a bit of a fever at noon, so I went home to rest.]

[Alright then, what a pity. Dorothy wanted to see Big Brother Felyn.]

Hehe, pretending to be sick is so useful.

The charity performance was in the afternoon. Felyn planned to go home and hide after his morning classes.

Meeting Dorothy outside of the contract period—such a thing must never happen.

[Big Brother Felyn, but Veronica said you didn't leave the school all morning.]

[Could it be... Big Brother Felyn is lying to Dorothy?]

[Dorothy doesn't really like it when Big Brother Felyn lies to me…]

Thump, thump, thump!

Felyn looked at these three messages, and his heart leaped into his throat.

Dorothy's eyes and smile that night had left a psychological scar on Felyn.

Felyn could even imagine Dorothy's expression at this moment.

Under her cute, pinkish-purple curly hair, the upturned corners of her mouth could no longer be described as sweet.

The crazy possessiveness seemed to make the weather darken.

"Zervanie."

Felyn suddenly turned his head to look at Zervanie.

Zervanie, who had been secretly looking at Felyn, quickly turned away, flusteredly tucking her hair behind her ear.

"Felyn... what's wrong?"
