I'm in Senior Year, and the System Says I'm Going on a Blind Date with My Childhood Sweetheart

Chapter 253: Chapter 160: Shen Yuan Must Die

Seeing Shen Yuan’s reply, Zhuo Peipei, who was at home, broke into a satisfied smile.

’Not bad, Lao Yuan. You’re pretty sharp.’

Li Zhi was like a lychee. You couldn’t eat the tough outer skin, but once you peeled it away, the white, tender flesh made you just want to take a bite.

Shen Yuan didn’t continue chatting with Zhuo Peipei. Instead, he forwarded the screenshot from the confession wall to Li Zhi.

After doing that, Shen Yuan went back to the campus confession wall’s feed.

Then he looked at the comments below.

Most people were clamoring about how beautiful the upperclassman was, but some also recognized the slogan from Li Zhi’s post on the campus wall.

Overall, the fact that Li Zhi was in Class 15 was impossible to hide.

After seeing Li Zhi’s photo, this flock of first-years would soon come looking for her.

But based on Shen Yuan’s understanding of Li Zhi, she probably wouldn’t give any of them the time of day.

That gave him a great sense of security.

Continuing to scroll down, Shen Yuan saw an update for "Defend and Steal."

Without hesitation, Shen Yuan immediately opened the campus confession wall’s journal section, found the latest update for "Defend and Steal," and started reading.

Overall, Shen Yuan could see that He Zhiyu’s writing in the Sugar Text genre had improved.

But for Shen Yuan, it was still the same old problem.

It wasn’t sweet enough, and his sense of immersion was starting to fade.

How should he put it?

’I’ve already touched her feet, and you’re still stuck on hand-holding and hugs.’

’It’s just too restrained.’

’Sister, I’m 18 already!’

However, Shen Yuan felt there was nothing to be done about it. After all, He Zhiyu herself probably wasn’t experienced in this area.

Besides, He Zhiyu probably couldn’t have imagined that Shen Yuan would enjoy touching Li Zhi’s feet.

No matter when she heard about it, He Zhiyu would definitely call him a pervert.

After dinner, Shen Yuan confirmed the time with Li Zhi, then gathered his things and prepared to leave.

"I’m heading to school."

Before leaving, Shen Yuan called out to his family, but he got no response from his parents.

Shen Yuan sighed. ’What a cold family. I’ll just marry into the family across the hall sooner or later.’

He opened the door, changed his shoes, and went to wait by Li Zhi’s front door.

Soon, Shen Yuan heard a sound from Li Zhi’s front door.

The first thing Shen Yuan saw was a light purple knit sweater.

The moment Li Zhi pushed the door open, her taro-purple knit sweater shimmered with a soft, velvety glow under the warm hallway light. The ribbed cuffs made her slender wrists look even more delicate.

The loose-knit collar offered a faint glimpse of her collarbones.

As the girl raised a hand to tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear, the sleeve slid down her fair wrist, like a cascade of wisteria petals draping over the jade-carved railing of a southern bridge.

The two satin ribbons hanging from the hem of the sweater traced star-like arcs across her white, wide-leg cotton pants as she turned.

Gazing at the beautiful girl standing so charmingly before him, Shen Yuan was completely mesmerized.

Seeing his dumbstruck expression, the corners of Li Zhi’s lips couldn’t help but curve up into a faint, almost-there smile.

"Hey, what are you looking at?"

Li Zhi’s voice broke Shen Yuan out of his trance.

As if waking from a dream, Shen Yuan’s gaze remained fixed on her as he answered with feigned composure, "I’m looking at how beautiful my Li Bao is."

Li Zhi rolled her eyes. "You’re just running your mouth. Stop fooling around and come help me with something."

Hearing this, Shen Yuan quickly stepped forward and asked, "What do you need help with?"

"Open the shoe cabinet. There’s a pair of white flats inside. Get them for me," Li Zhi said.

Shen Yuan did as she asked, quickly opening the shoe cabinet at her family’s door.

However, he froze when he saw at least five different pairs of white shoes inside.

"There are so many pairs of white shoes. Which ones are yours?" Shen Yuan asked, completely lost.

"The first pair on the fourth row," Li Zhi replied, pointing to a spot in the cabinet.

Shen Yuan followed her direction and found a pair of white flats.

He took the shoes out and placed them by Li Zhi’s feet.

Li Zhi elegantly lifted her foot, slipping her toes into one of the shoes.

Then, with a gentle and practiced motion, she hooked the shoe with her toes, steadied herself with one hand on the doorframe, lifted her leg, and slipped the shoe on properly.

"Let’s go."

While Shen Yuan was still in a daze, Li Zhi tapped him on the shoulder.

A scent of fig washed over him.

"Did you change your perfume?"

"What do you mean ’change’? I’ve always had this one."

The girl’s displeased voice sounded beside him. Shen Yuan gave an embarrassed smile and asked, "What’s it called? I think it smells much better than that woody one."

Li Zhi looked at Shen Yuan with a grin. "Moon. If you like it, remember to buy it for me. I’ll pay you back later."

"Can I buy you a lipstick then?"

"Do you really want me to gently hammer you to death?"

Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow. "Could you be the legendary Jiyang Hammer King?"

The words had barely left his mouth when Li Zhi’s fist landed on his chest.

"If you act like a jerk again, I’m ignoring you!"

"My bad, my bad. My Li Bao is the gentlest."

Shen Yuan chuckled, and then he and Li Zhi walked into the elevator.

As the elevator reached the first floor, the two of them slowly walked out of the residential complex and headed toward the school.

At the complex gate, the security guard, Xiaoguo, stared at Shen Yuan’s retreating figure in utter disbelief.

"No way... Huh?!"

Just as Xiaoguo exclaimed, the security captain beside him asked, "What are you making such a fuss about?"

Xiaoguo quickly shook his head, a dazed smile on his face. "Nothing, nothing."

’Who could have imagined that he, a man who once ruled the roost at the vocational high school, would now be working so peacefully under a security captain?’
