You are all bad women! Don't come over!-Chapter 552 - 533
Yu Jing and Xiao Mei led Shen Mochen around the elementary school area for a tour, explaining that the Teaching Institute's extracurricular activities were diverse and colorful. There were special rooms for teaching sewing and cooking, which everyone was expected to learn.
In addition, there were courses in dance, music, and fine arts; the Teaching Institute would tailor the teaching to suit each individual's talents.
Shen Mochen followed behind the two girls, merely nodding and not asking much else.
"Captain Shen, are you a big star?" along the way, Yu Jing couldn't help but ask with a blushing face.
"With your good looks, you must be a big star!" Xiao Mei chimed in.
Shen Mochen smiled, "I'm not any big star, but you two are also very pretty."
His comment was not merely polite flattery; though Yu Jing and Xiao Mei were barely twelve or thirteen, they were beginning to show the contours of adulthood on their youthful faces and bodies, quite charming and attractive indeed.
Yu Jing humbly waved her hand, "Oh no, not at all. A woman's appearance isn't what's most important--what truly matters is kindness, loyalty, and being virtuous."
"That's not entirely wrong," Shen Mochen nodded. "Did your teachers teach you that?"
Both girls nodded naively.
Shen Mochen glanced at them blandly, "It seems like you will both make good brides in the future."
Both of their faces revealed a shy and delighted smile.
Shen Mochen frowned slightly, "It seems like you two are quite close, aren't you?"
"Yes, yes, we are good sisters!"
"You must have been together since you were little, right?"
"That's right, we grew up together!"
"Have your childhood playmates always stayed together?"
Xiao Mei said enviously, "Not all, some have been adopted by kind-hearted people."
Shen Mochen asked lightly, "Really, have they ever come back? Have you seen each other again?"
Yu Jing smiled, "Even though we haven't seen each other again, I believe our hearts will always be together."
Shen Mochen raised an eyebrow, "Have you led other visitors on a tour before?"
Yu Jing said, "I did once, the day before yesterday, a Mr. Wu. He held my hand and asked me to show him around..."
"A Mr. Wu?" Shen Mochen interrupted, "Is he around forty or fifty years old, with a black mole on his lip?"
"Eh, you know Mr. Wu too?"
"Met him once." Shen Mochen clenched his fist slightly, "Has your head teacher said anything about him?"
"They said he's not a very important guest, so I shouldn't be too nervous."
"I see..."
Suddenly, Shen Mochen held both their hands, turned his head with a smile, his eyes seemingly filled with a thousand kinds of tender feelings, like the warm and precious sunlight on a winter's day. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Yu Jing and Xiao Mei couldn't help but blush, their hearts pounding like little deer.
"I'm asking you, do people come to visit here every now and then?"
"Uh, it seems like there are always guests visiting..." both of them rushed to answer.
"And after they arrive, do they all ask for a tour?"
"No, many of them aren't here for the first time; they go straight to the principal's building..."
"The principal's building?"
"It's the building right in the middle, where the director lives. We call it the Director's Building."
Shen Mochen paused to think, recalling the small, unassuming two-story building.
"Do you go inside when there are guests visiting?"
Yu Jing shook her head: "I don't know... I have never been inside."
Xiao Mei suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said, "I, I... seem to have seen it once. After a guest arrived, they took a little girl by the hand and went inside."
"Do you recognize that girl?"
Xiao Mei shook her head: "No, I don't... We usually keep to our own classes, one class at a time... we barely know anyone from the other classes, and the grades are different, too..."
Shen Mochen took a deep breath and "casually" glanced at the nearly omnipresent surveillance cameras before pinning the two girls against the wall.
"Captain Shen, what are you going to do..."
Xiao Mei and Yu Jing blushed, meeting Shen Mochen's hauntingly broken gaze. Their hearts felt like they were melting.
"Promise me one thing, will you?" Shen Mochen's eyes were deep and misty, his breath as tender as a cloud.
The two girls nodded repeatedly, their minds a blur at this point. They'd probably do anything he asked them to, even if Shen Mochen told them to take their own lives on the spot.
"From the moment we entered this corridor, do not tell anyone about anything we've said, okay? No matter who asks, don't say anything, including your Director Ke..."
"But, but..."
"If they ask, just say that I really like you both and want to spend money to sponsor you..."
Shen Mochen caressed each of their cheeks with one hand, his voice growing ever more gentle.
The young girls could hardly resist such a gesture; their legs went weak, and they felt an indescribable sensation, longing for more of Shen Mochen's touch.
"Really... Captain Shen wants to sponsor us?"
"Of course. Even though I'm quite busy now and might not be able to see you often in the future, I will make time to visit you."
Shen Mochen kissed each girl softly on the cheek, intoxicating them so completely that they would happily hide anything from the Teaching Institute for him, even rip out their hearts if he asked.
"Let's make a pinky promise."
Shen Mochen extended his little fingers as the two girls smiled shyly and sweetly.
"Pinky promise, hang yourself if you lie... never change for a hundred years..."
Shen Mochen continued the tour with their hands in his. Although his face carried a smile, when he occasionally bowed his head in the corners the cameras couldn't see, his eyes flashed a fierce, vicious light.
...
After finishing the tour of the primary school section, Director Ke finally appeared. She told Yu Jing and Xiao Mei to leave first, her cloudy eyes shining with an ambiguous smile.
"Captain Shen, how do you feel about the two girls? They are young and don't understand much. They haven't offended you, have they?" Director Ke said.
"No, they are very nice and sensible," Shen Mochen replied, glancing down slightly with a hint of bashfulness on his face, "I think they are quite pitiable, so I'd like to donate some money to them. Is there a way to do that?"
Director Ke smiled: "Thank you, Captain Shen, for your tender heart towards them. There's no need for a special procedure. Since you've brought it up, I'll take care of everything for you, no need for you to do anything. As for the amount, it doesn't matter; give whatever you wish, it's the thought that counts. We can assure you that every penny will be spent on them."
Shen Mochen let out a sigh of relief: "Alright, I understand. Where to now?"
Director Ke smiled faintly: "Let's go to the secondary school section. It's just mealtime; why don't you take a look at our cafeteria standards."
The two entered the secondary school area, which was, of course, separated by metal doors but still accessible via Director Ke's facial recognition system.
The cafeteria of the secondary school was very small, which was to be expected since there weren't many children in the Teaching Institute. Each seat in the cafeteria had a name attached to it. Shen Mochen took a glance and estimated there were around a hundred people, significantly fewer than in the primary school section.
Ideally, since the secondary school was also a five-year program, the number of students should be similar to that of the primary school. But Shen Mochen didn't ask, thinking that even if he did, he would only get an answer like "Some kids have been adopted out."
