Whew!

The sound of a car approaching from afar reached the front yard.

Ye Junlang heard and thought to himself that it should be the beautiful Principal Shen Chenyu back. It's only 8:30 pm now, so there's no need to rush to investigate at Tingchaoshan Villa. He could go a little later.

Ye Junlang walked to the backyard and saw that the backyard of the neighboring house was also open. He seemed to hear the sound of stir-frying coming from inside. This made his face stiffen, and he couldn't help but ask, "Principal Shen, haven't you eaten yet? It's so late now, is it still too late to cook?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Chenyu walked out, holding a spatula in her hand. Upon seeing Ye Junlang, she raised an eyebrow and snorted, "You're finally back. I couldn't see you all day, wondering if you were fooling around outside…"

Ye Junlang's heart skipped a beat. Could the beautiful headmistress actually see through people's minds? He had indeed spent the night with Hua Jieyu, the infamous "Queen of Mature Women" in Jianghai City—mainly in bed.

Even so, Ye Junlang remained unfazed. He smiled and said, "Principal Shen, please don't wrongly accuse someone of something they didn't do. I have friends in Jianghai City who own a rosewood furniture factory, I went to have drinks with them."

"Who knows you..." Shen Chenyu's eyes, sparkling like a gathering of stars, glanced at Ye Junlang before turning back to her own house.

Shen Chenyu had just stepped into the room when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and almost got angry—it was that shameless Ye bastard who had followed her in.

"Ye, don't you treat my house as your own? You just barge in without even asking?" Shen Chenyu said angrily, glaring at Ye Junlang.

Ye Junlang smirked cheekily and said, "Principal Shen, it's very common for neighbors to drop by... By the way, what are you cooking? Don't burn it!"

"Ah—"

Shen Shen immediately exclaimed, quickly running towards the kitchen. Then, the sound of a spatula frying came from inside.

After a while, Shen Chenyu brought out the food. It turned out to be the leftovers from her lunch. She came back late in the evening and didn't want to eat outside, so she simply reheated her leftover lunch for dinner.

"President Shen, what have you been busy with lately? I remember today is the weekend, right? Are you even busy with school matters?" Ye Junlang asked curiously.

Shen Chenyu ate a mouthful of food, raised her eyes to look at Ye Junlang, and said in an unpleasant tone, "I'm eating. Can't you be quiet for a while? Besides, you're not allowed to watch me eat."

"It's fine if you don't want to speak, but can't you even look?"

"No!"

Shen Chen's fish almost slammed the table and shouted loudly.

"Okay, okay, you really scared me... when you get angry like this, my heart skips a beat. I'm terrified." Ye Junlang patted his chest to calm himself down and looked into Shen Chenyu's eyes, his voice low and tender. "You see, I'm such a hero who punches thugs and kicks scoundrels. How could I be afraid of you? It must be that all my heroic passion has turned into something soft and gentle."

Shen Chen's delicately beautiful jade face blushed involuntarily, and a hint of shyness flashed in her eyes. Of course, she had heard the implication in Ye Junlang's words.

"Talk is cheap, I don't believe you..."

Shen Chen murmured softly, lowered her head and continued eating.

After eating a few bites, Shen Chenyu still opened up and told her about what she's been busy with lately. "In a while, a student exchange group from the University of Tokyo will be visiting our school. I'm in charge of this exchange event, so many things need me to personally arrange."

"Could Tokyo University students exchange with our school's students? What areas could we focus on for the exchange?"

A strange glint flashed in Ye Junlang's eyes—the action movies from the East Ying region were indeed too famous. If he had the chance, he would like to exchange some "Tokyo Heat" and "Fanhao" with those Tokyo University female students who were about to visit.

"There are many aspects to the exchange, both broad and wide-ranging. It includes academic exchanges as well as comparisons of ancient cultures, such as tea ceremony competitions." Shen Chenyu said.

Ye Junlang was also clueless about these matters. He could tell how seriously Shen Chenyu took this, and he said with a smile, "Principal Shen, have you been busy with this all these days? I hope that our school students will be able to hold their own then, so as not to disappoint Principal Shen's hard work these past few days."

Shen Chen's fish and rice were almost gone as they chatted. She shifted her gaze to Ye Junlang and said, "At that time, school security will definitely be a top priority, and you and Zhao Chief will have to organize and arrange it."

Ye Junlang immediately patted his chest and said, "Principal Shen, rest assured, I'll take care of this. I will definitely cooperate with Zhao Section Chief's work and do a good job of school security protection."

Shen Chen looked at Ye Junlang's serious expression and couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Alright, stop putting on a show here, just do your job well when the time comes. Also, are you planning to stay here forever?"

Ye Junlang chuckled and said, "Principal Shen, you wouldn't want to drive people away, would you?"

Of course. I'm going to take a shower and rest now, I've been busy all day...

"Principal Shen, you can take your shower. It doesn't matter if I'm here or not, right? Just close the bathroom door."

"You—Ye, do you want to be so shameless? You, get out of here!"

Shen Chen was so flustered that she pushed Ye Junlang away and walked out.

"Hey, Principal Shen, why are you resorting to violence again? Why don't we just talk this out?" Ye Junlang hurriedly said.

"Humph. With someone like you, whose face is thicker than the Great Wall, words are useless." Shen Chenyu let out a cold snort, pushing Ye Junlang out of the house before finally stopping.

Ye Junlang wanted to say something more, but he saw the beautiful headmaster casually close the gate to the backyard.

Ye Junlang shook his head and chuckled. He shouted through the door, "Principal Shen, if anything happens, just give me a shout, like if you find a little mouse or something..."

"Ye, are you bothering me… If you keep saying things like this, I'll be cursed! I can't escape your bad luck talk!"

The exasperated voice of the beautiful headmistress came.

Ye Junlang chuckled and returned to his own house.

He glanced at the time, it was already nine thirty, he should probably get moving.

Ye Junlang walked out and sat in the Paramount Plunderer. With a start, the Plunderer roared with a deep growl, then sped out of Tingzhu Xiaochu.
