Don't pretend, everyone knows you're the villain!

The high failure rate of the final exam for mecha combat is causing great distress to students who choose this elective course.

There was no doubt that Xie Sicen passed, but Xie Yuan, considering that Xie Sicen started from a different point than the others, made the individual assessment more difficult for Xie Sicen in order to be fair.

So the score was stuck at 82 points, which wasn't good enough for "excellent".

Yin Zhaoshu's assessment, like that of the other students, consisted of basic mecha operation and simple combat duels.

With Xie Sicen as his sparring partner and instructor, Yin Zhaoshu naturally excelled in this assessment, earning the only perfect score among all participants.

This caused those who had bullied him in the past to feel not only disbelief but also genuine fear after accepting his actions.

With such outstanding achievements, rejoining the army is a foregone conclusion. If Yin Zhaoshu wanted to take revenge on them, it would be easy even without Xie Sicen's help.

However, Yin Zhaoshu and Xie Sicen left immediately after finishing the exam and did not continue watching in the exam room.

Xie Sichen pulled Yin Zhaoshu along, wanting to buy her a gift.

"Having a perfect boyfriend is so prestigious, let's go celebrate!"

Xie Sicen was all smiles, she was overjoyed.

Seeing that the other person was genuinely happy for him, Yin Zhaoshu was also infected by the joy, but still made a jarring suggestion.

"Compared to you, my perfect score is undeserved."

"There's no comparison. If I practiced with you, I wouldn't learn as fast as you. Boyfriend, being overly modest isn't cute."

As Xie Sicen said this, she glanced at Yin Zhaoshu out of the corner of her eye, pulled him to a deserted path, and kissed him.

Yin Zhaoshu seemed to be aroused by the passionate kiss and wanted to take the initiative. Xie Sichen was slightly taken aback by his reaction, but then allowed Yin Zhaoshu to turn the tide.

Yin Zhaoshu initially learned his kissing skills from Xie Sichen, but later surpassed his teacher, to the point that Xie Sichen was so dizzy from the kisses that she couldn't help herself.

We're still outside, what if we get into a fight?

Having regained some composure, Xie Sicen lightly bit Yin Zhaoshu and, panting slightly, pushed him away.

"Stop kissing. If we keep going, I'm afraid we'll both be on the news tomorrow. Not only will you be embarrassed with me, but General Xie will definitely break my legs."

Yin Zhaoshu licked the spot on his lips where Xie Sicen had bitten him, then stared intently at Xie Sicen, his eyes still warm with lingering affection.

"Being with you is not shameful."

Xie Sichen didn't quite understand Yin Zhaoshu's thought process. What's so shameful about this? It's shameful to be in this kind of news with anyone, okay?

"what?"

Yin Zhaoshu said in a soft, gentle voice, "That way everyone will know that we belong to each other."

Xie Sichen gasped, realizing they were focusing on the wrong thing!

"Hiss... Your thinking is dangerous. We can't become famous for this, you know? We can earn military merits and accumulate honors, but we absolutely cannot do it because of field battles."

"If I were down here, I'd just get a beating and a few insults, it wouldn't matter. But I'm up here now, boyfriend, I have to protect your reputation. I have to be careful with my words and actions."

Xie Sichen's words warmed Yin Zhaoshu's heart; Xie Sichen cared about him and considered his needs.

Then a feeling of guilt towards Xie Sicen resurfaced. He still really wanted to suppress Xie Sicen, no matter what. Even though he hadn't won last time, this feeling wouldn't be extinguished just because of one fight.

Perhaps it was his alpha instincts at work, but Yin Zhaoshu's possessiveness overwhelmed Xie Sicen's rational defenses. After their last intimate encounter, he wanted to mark her, to make her completely his.

He bit Xie Sicen's nape repeatedly, not caring if there was no pheromone feedback.

Because Yin Zhaoshu knew all too well that even though Xie Sichen was only a beta, he couldn't suppress his desire for her.

Xie Sicen, with a mischievous glint in her eye, bit Yin Zhaoshu, who was lost in thought, and asked, "Boyfriend, where did your attention wander?"

This time the force was not light, and Yin Zhaoshu regained his senses in pain.

She pursed her lips and softly suggested, "Shall we have another match?"

Xie Sicen raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and smiled lewdly.

You want it?

Yin Zhaoshu paused for a few seconds, "I won't lose every time."

Xie Sicen sighed helplessly as she saw how serious Yin Zhaoshu was about it.

"Boyfriend, it's not that I don't trust you, but all those years of training with General Xie weren't for nothing. And I'm not trying to discourage you, but you still have a long way to go before you can beat me."

"I know. I can afford to lose to you."

Xie Sichen chuckled, "You can't lose to someone else in something like this... Either you lose to me, and I'll beat everyone else for you; or you beat everyone else, and I'll be yours."

The words "I belong to you" stirred an uncontrollable heat within Yin Zhaoshu. "Where do we go to fight?"

Xie Sicen smiled and gave Yin Zhaoshu a light peck. "Don't rush, I told you I'd celebrate with you. It would be more appropriate to buy you a gift to commemorate this."

"it is good."

Yin Zhaoshu obediently followed Xie Sicen, and after thinking it over, Xie Sicen decided to buy Yin Zhaoshu a watch.

A man needs a presentable watch to feel proud.

Even if Yin Zhaoshu doesn't need to go into business or politics in the future, Xie Sicen still wants to give him a gift.

I was afraid that Yin Zhaoshu wouldn't be willing to buy such an expensive watch. After all, someone who still relies on part-time jobs to earn money wouldn't spend money like that.

Considering this, Xie Sicen quickly said to Yin Zhaoshu, "Wait for me here, I'll be out soon."

Yin Zhaoshu was puzzled, but he still obeyed and waited.

Xie Sicen could certainly come up with that much money, but if Xie Yuan found out, it would cause unnecessary trouble.

So I used my points to redeem one in the system store.

On its first day of operation, 0561 felt increasingly guilty towards its previous host.

"Host, aren't you going to buy one for yourself?"

Xie Sicen shook her head, "Let's save some points; it's not easy to accumulate them."

I also got some rather inconspicuous packaging.

The packaging looks inexpensive, but inside is a watch worth hundreds of thousands.

When Xie Sicen went out, she saw Yin Zhaoshu standing there without moving, his back straight and very conspicuous in the crowd.

"So obedient..." Xie Sicen sighed and walked over.

Upon approaching, she immediately curved her eyebrows and gazed at the other person with sparkling eyes.

Xie Sicen handed the box to Yin Zhaoshu, "Guess what it is?"

"ring?"

Xie Sicen was a little embarrassed.

"Hmm...we'll talk about the ring when you marry me."

"It's a watch. Time will record our meeting, remember the little things we did together, and most importantly, remember that I love you."

Xie Sicen spoke slowly and deliberately, while Yin Zhaoshu's expression changed repeatedly when he opened the watch and saw it.

Finally, he pulled Xie Sicen into his arms.

"I won't let you regret your choice of me."

Xie Sicen smiled and said, "I've always had high hopes for you."

The two had a fight in an empty training field, and as expected, Xie Sicen won.

However, it must be admitted that Yin Zhaoshu's learning ability is formidable. After only one exchange, he had already learned some of Xie Sicen's techniques and was even able to apply them in different ways to suit his own style.

Xie Sicen clearly noticed this and reached out to pull Yin Zhaoshu up, laughing, "They're really not to be underestimated. If this continues, I'll start to panic."

Yin Zhaoshu sighed helplessly, "It's not too late to panic after I win."
