Mu Anxiao nodded, "Mm, when I returned to the past, I would appear as soon as I spoke. Back then..." Halfway through, Shen Yan's face once again surfaced in her mind, and she couldn't continue.
Seeing Mu Anxiao's somber expression, Zhang Yan said, "Alright, I understand mostly. You don't need to say more."
Mu Anxiao lowered her gaze and said, "I'm fine, you can go."
"I replaced the TV in the room. Go take a look when you get back," Zhang Yan said, patting Mu Anxiao's shoulder.
However, Mu Anxiao had no interest in the television. Instead, her greatest interest was in Hu Yuan inside it.
Zhang Yan looked down at the silent Mu Anxiao and then at the wolf demon in the classroom, saying, "That guy really looks like an idiot now."
"I agree," Mu Anxiao concurred.
"Get back to work. I'm leaving now," Zhang Yan said, patting Mu Anxiao's shoulder again.
Mu Anxiao gave him no response, walked directly into the classroom, glanced at the wolf demon, and returned to the seat in the last row.
The female classmate next to her was still staring intently at Mu Anxiao, which made Mu Anxiao very uncomfortable. "This reluctance to part is too overwhelming. I've only known her for half a day." As she spoke, she shivered at the sight of the neighboring classmate, shifting her gaze to the back of the wolf demon's head.
This time, the wolf demon didn't pay attention to Mu Anxiao's gaze. Instead, he focused on the lesson.
The second girl propped her chin with one hand, staring at the back of the wolf demon's head, then picked up a wad of paper and threw it at him.
Seeing this, Mu Anxiao quickly pointed her finger at the paper ball. The paper ball instantly flew back and hit the second girl directly in the face.
The surrounding classmates laughed at this.
The second girl glanced awkwardly to both sides, then casually raised her hand.
The substitute teacher had just posed a question and turned around to see the second girl. "Come up," he gestured to her.
"Huh?" The second girl looked dazed.
"Hurry up," the substitute teacher said sternly.
The second girl smiled awkwardly, but still couldn't escape the fate of standing at the blackboard.
The wolf demon looked at the second girl's retreating back, a smile curled on his lips, and he turned his head to look at Mu Anxiao, saying mentally, *You did this, didn't you?*
Mu Anxiao rolled her eyes at him and said nothing.
The wolf demon smiled, then shifted his gaze to the second girl's back as she struggled to solve the problem. He raised his hand. "Teacher, I'll do it."
The substitute teacher looked at the second girl's hesitant demeanor and gestured to the wolf demon. "Come on," he said, then turned to the second girl, "Move aside."
The second girl nodded slightly and stepped aside.
The wolf demon walked forward, looked at the problem on the blackboard, sighed, and then picked up chalk, finishing the problem in a few strokes.
"Teacher, done," he said, put down the chalk, and returned to his seat.
The substitute teacher looked at the wolf demon, then at the problem he had solved on the blackboard, and smiled. "I didn't expect you to use the method I just taught you." He picked up red chalk and marked it with a check.
The second girl lowered her head.
The substitute teacher put down the chalk and looked at the second girl, saying, "What were you doing during class?"
"Teacher, I..."
"Get down," the substitute teacher interrupted sharply.
The second girl pursed her lips, turned, and walked off the podium.
Inside the wolf demon, Hu Yuan chuckled, *You're really using my brain.*
*I'm smart myself. By the way,* the wolf demon glanced at the substitute teacher, *you can use my magic? Do you know that my magic is very precious to me now? You'd better not use it casually.*
*So what? I'm giving you my body anyway. Is it too much to use a little of your magic?* Hu Yuan said.
The wolf demon was speechless.
Mu Anxiao looked at the back of the wolf demon's head and snorted, "It seems he's started talking to Hu Yuan again." Then, she glanced at the neighboring classmate again, leaned on her desk, and fell asleep.
The dismissal bell rang, and Mu Anxiao woke up abruptly. She sat up, looked at the second girl who was standing by the wolf demon's desk, narrowed her eyes, stood up, and walked over.
"What are you doing?" the wolf demon asked, looking up and glaring at the second girl.
"You did it on purpose," the second girl said inexplicably.
The wolf demon frowned slightly. "I don't understand what you're saying."
"During class just now, you deliberately raised your hand to embarrass me, didn't you?"
"I'm not as bored as you are," the wolf demon sneered at the second girl.
The second girl grabbed the wolf demon's arm and said, "Don't think I can't bully you just because my boss isn't here, you sickly person. I'm telling you, you'd better have some sense and not be so flashy."
Mu Anxiao looked at the second girl's unhappy expression and then at the wolf demon's indifferent look, and frowned.
The wolf demon turned to look at Mu Anxiao, opened his notebook, and started doing problems.
Seeing that the wolf demon ignored her, the second girl became angry. She then tightened her grip on the wolf demon's arm and said, "You're too..."
"Let go," the wolf demon roared.
The second girl was startled and released her hand, stepping back.
The surrounding classmates were also startled and looked over.
Mu Anxiao calmly watched the wolf demon's fierce expression and said, "I thought you would endure it."
The wolf demon turned to look at Mu Anxiao, sighed, and returned to doing his problems.
The second girl, not daring to continue, walked away tearfully.
Mu Anxiao looked at the second girl, took a step back, and sat on an empty chair nearby. She leaned forward slightly and said to the wolf demon, "I've talked with Hu Yuan. I don't think you two are compatible."
Hearing this, the wolf demon put down his pen, turned to look at Mu Anxiao, and said mentally, *Can you stop interfering?*
"I can stop interfering, but Hu Yuan is my mission," Mu Anxiao stated truthfully.
"Mission?" the wolf demon was stunned.
The girl in front of Mu Anxiao heard the wolf demon's voice and turned around, asking, "What did you say?"
The wolf demon glanced at the girl who had asked, stood up, and left the classroom first.
Mu Anxiao looked at the girl who was awkwardly frozen, stood up, and followed the wolf demon's steps.
Outside the classroom, Mu Anxiao followed the wolf demon to a quiet corner. The wolf demon turned and asked, "What did you mean by that?"
"I mean, I want to tell you that I won't give up. I'll follow you wherever you go."
"Suit yourself," the wolf demon glared at Mu Anxiao and turned to walk away.
Mu Anxiao looked at the wolf demon's retreating back, took a deep breath, and said, "Wolf Demon, five hundred taels. Hu Yuan, one thousand taels." A smile curved her lips. "These two guys are indeed quite valuable."
"You're smiling."
Hearing this, Mu Anxiao turned around and looked at Feng Qishi, who had stopped in front of her, and said, "What does my smile have to do with you?"
"I didn't say it had anything to do with me. However, your smile doesn't look so stiff now," Feng Qishi said with a faint smile. "I'm relieved."
