Then let the witch offer her loyalty

"Um...okay."

Dong Xiaobai carefully held onto the wall and placed her other foot on it as well. She pressed her soft sole against Chen Moxin's back, like a kitten gently stepping on it with its paw.

The elastic touch was simply wonderful; the warmth from the soles of her feet seemed to seep deep into her muscles, and Chen Moxin couldn't help but hum softly.

For a moment, he seemed to suddenly understand the magical existence of "the porridge bar bro".

Just as Chen Moxin was comfortably enjoying her massage, her phone next to her vibrated.

He took it and saw that it was a group chat message.

The chat group is called 【Forever Senior 3 (14)】

The message content is as follows:

Spring has just arrived, and summer is here again in June—graduation season and the annual time for reunions. Our class reunion dinner is tomorrow at 6 PM in Room 807 of the Dingsheng Hotel on Wubin Road. Everyone who's free, please come! @Everyone

Chapter 97 High School Reunion

After receiving a massage from Dong Xiaobai, Chen Moxin slept soundly and went to work at the bureau on time the next day.

As soon as he arrived at the office, he found that Luo Lingyou was also there.

"Hey, Mio, what brings you here?"

Luo Lingyou is a judge stationed in Special Investigation Division 7. He was originally in charge of Luo Shoucheng's 9th Group, so he shouldn't be here in Demon Hunting Division 9.

Luo Lingyou raised an eyebrow at Chen Moxin, his tone somewhat domineering: "What, you don't want to see me?"

Chen Moxin, still shameless, said in a serious tone, "How could that be? What you think about during the day, you dream about at night. I dream about you every single day!"

Luo Lingyou was already immune to Chen Moxin's tendency to speak without thinking, but the corners of his mouth still unconsciously curled up slightly.

However, she soon seemed to notice something, leaned closer to Chen Moxin and sniffed, asking with a strange expression, "You... hugged a woman this morning? You smell like a woman."

Chen Moxin's heart stirred.

It was summer, and the blankets on the bed were thin. He slept with Dong Xiaobai, so he inevitably picked up her scent.

This was a slip-up that Chen Moxin inadvertently exposed, but for a big liar like him, it was too easy to cover it up with a lie.

"Yes, I hugged my mom."

"Huh? Don't you not have a mother?"

"Mio, why are you swearing at me? Does my dad have to live like a widow and can't he find a stepmother?"

“Okay.” Luo Lingyou didn’t think much of it. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and explained, “I’ve applied for a transfer. I’m going from Special Investigation Division 7 to Demon Hunting Division 9 to be stationed in your Snow Moon Squadron.”

Chen Moxin clapped her hands: "What are we waiting for? Let's quickly order a milk tea to celebrate."

Luo Lingyou smiled happily: "You're treating me~"

"Just treating you isn't enough! This is such a joyous occasion, everyone in the squadron should have a drink." Chen Moxin waved his hand, and cheers immediately erupted from his colleagues in the office.

The cheers were not only for the milk tea being offered, but also for the addition of a beautiful white-haired girl to the office.

After finishing their milk tea, everyone briefly celebrated Luo Lingyou's arrival before returning to their respective posts.

Today was another peaceful day; nothing unusual happened in the city.

After finishing her team's daily training and taking a shower, Chen Moxin realized it was almost time to leave work.

He found Alexander, Lei Lie, and Luo Miaoyou, and said with a smile, "It's Friday today. How about we go to a bar for a few drinks tonight? It's on me. Consider it a welcome-back party for Miaobao."

Alexander and Lei Lie naturally had no objections; it was Brother Chen's treat, how could they possibly be absent?

Luo Lingyou naturally agreed, and even winked and said, "It's almost time to get off work, let's eat together tonight, and then go to a bar together."

Chen Moxin shook her head: "We won't have dinner together. I have to go to a class reunion. Let's meet at the bar after dinner, around nine o'clock tonight."

"Oh... okay, I'll go home and eat then." Luo Lingyou put her hands behind her back, revealing a playful, bright smile. "I'm going to dress up nicely tonight~"

These words piqued Chen Moxin's interest.

Every time he met Luo Lingyou before, she was wearing her courtroom uniform.

To be fair, Luo Lingyou looks very good in uniform; with white hair, red eyes, and black clothes, she's both beautiful and cool.

However, you'll get visually fatigued if you look at it too much.

Chen Moxin had never seen Luo Lingyou in his casual clothes before and was very much looking forward to it.

See you tonight!

After saying goodbye to everyone, Chen Moxin clocked out of get off work and took a taxi to Dingsheng Hotel.

Before Chen Moxin transmigrated, she didn't really participate in class reunions, especially high school reunions, because after graduating from high school, everyone lost touch, and a sudden reunion felt rather awkward. It was better to go out and have fun with her best friends whom she had always kept in touch with.

It doesn't really matter if you don't attend this reunion of Class 14, Grade 12.

However, some of the original owner's social relationships were rather complicated.

Thinking about the future, Chen Moxin decided to take this opportunity to sort out those messy relationships and make things cleaner.

...

June is a special time of year every year.

Some people finish the college entrance examination, bid farewell to their ignorant youth, and look forward to the wonderful life of university.

Some people graduate from university, carrying a lot of confusion about the future, and leave the ivory tower to step into the complex society.

Some people have been out of school for many years, and every year when they see news about graduation season, memories always come flooding back to them—those fleeting years they once had but can never return to.

Early summer in June isn't too hot yet. In the evening, a comfortable breeze gently blows, and the air is filled with the fragrance of gardenias.

The taxi stopped in front of the Dingsheng Hotel. Chen Moxin paid the fare and got out of the car. Guided by the waiter, she arrived at VIP room 807.

The moment the door was opened, a burst of laughter and cheerful voices rushed out, filling the room with a lively atmosphere.

Chen Moxin's high school is called "Twin Cities Second Normal University Affiliated High School". The atmosphere in his senior class (14) is very good, and the students are united and friendly.

Even after graduation, we still keep in touch frequently and hold a class reunion every June. Except for some classmates who work in other places and don't have time, everyone else will come if they can.

Chen Moxin's workplace was far from the Dingsheng Hotel, so she arrived quite late.

The tables were almost full, with students gathered in small groups, chatting away, following their high school circles.

When Chen Moxin came in, his classmates who were familiar with him greeted him loudly.

"Damn, Chen Gou!"

"Quickly, quick, we were just talking about you, have a seat."

"Wow, Chen, the school heartthrob, has gotten even more handsome since I last saw him a year ago!"

"Hey Lao Chen, what have you been up to this past year? You look so thin."

Amidst the chatter, a girl waved playfully, "Chen Moxin, come over here! I saved a seat for you. Qiao Qiao is at this table too!"

Upon hearing the sound, Chen Moxin turned her gaze to a girl at the table on the left.

The girl wore a pure white floral dress, with cute and energetic bangs. Her fair face was delicate and beautiful, and her bright eyes were clear, innocent, and without any impurities, giving people a strong sense of first love.

Upon seeing Chen Moxin, the girl called "Qiaoqiao" smiled sweetly at him and nodded in greeting.

This girl is named Gu Qiaoqiao, and she occupies a very important position in Chen Moxin's original network of connections.

Because she was the first girl he ever liked in his life, his "white moonlight".

High school romances are always beautiful, pure, and innocent. A chance encounter on the playground or a glance exchanged in the classroom can become a memory to cherish for a long time.

The original owner of this body really liked Gu Qiaoqiao, and half of her memories from high school were about Gu Qiaoqiao.

First love is so beautiful...

It would be even better if this first love wasn't unrequited.

That's right, the original owner liked Gu Qiaoqiao, but Gu Qiaoqiao didn't like the original owner.

He's just a lowly sycophant.

Chapter 98 Simp? Not even a dog

During high school, just like the girl who just shouted "Chen the school heartthrob," in terms of appearance, the original owner was definitely a heartthrob.

The original owner was indeed very handsome, but unfortunately, he was the kind of handsome that exuded "youthfulness." He had a delicate face, refined features, and looked soft and gentle. In short, he was the "puppy-like" type that is very popular in variety shows these days.

Gu Qiaoqiao's aesthetic is very traditional; he likes men who are masculine and give people a strong sense of security.

The original owner's appearance was exactly the opposite of her aesthetic.

And so, tragedy struck.

During his three years of high school, the original owner pursued Gu Qiaoqiao for three years, but failed.

Both of them attended the local "Twin Cities Second Normal University," both majoring in psychology, and even in the same small class.

From freshman to junior year of college, the original owner pursued Gu Qiaoqiao for three years, but still failed.

Logically speaking, people should have some self-awareness.

If you fail to win a girl's heart once or twice, you can say that she's playing hard to get or testing you, and that you can keep trying.

If someone confesses their feelings to you for six years and is rejected, and you still keep pursuing them, then there's something wrong with your brain.

Simps are just that weird.

A "simp" will provide 24/7 instant reply and chat service to the person he likes, even if the other person often doesn't reply to messages.

Even if the other person rejects your confession, you still won't give up and will try to please them no matter what.

After being rejected so many times and heartbroken, she finally made up her mind one day to stop paying attention to him.

But as long as the other party sends a message, even if it's just an emoji, a sycophant can interpret it in a hundred ways that are beneficial to him.

At that moment, the gloom of countless rejections was thrown to the back of my mind, and the determination I had made vanished instantly. I picked up my phone again and replied to the message in a flash.

Even if the other person abuses me a thousand times, I still won't say goodbye.

That's what a simp is.

A creature that remembers the good but not the bad.

The only purpose of a "simp" is to post their experiences online, become a source of amusement for netizens, and provide a little bit of joy to everyone's dreary lives.

Chen Moxin's original self was such a simp.

When Gu Qiaoqiao confessed to him for the first time in their first year of high school, she clearly rejected him, saying that he was not her type and that they could be friends but not lovers.

Meanwhile, the original owner displayed an unyielding, sycophantic spirit, repeatedly failing but never giving up.

The original owner's obsession stemmed not only from his own cerebral palsy, but also, in a sense, from Gu Qiaoqiao's behavior.

Whenever the original owner of this body had a holiday, she would ask Gu Qiaoqiao to go out and play, and Gu Qiaoqiao would come out whenever she had free time.

Whenever the original owner of this body invited Gu Qiaoqiao to dinner, she would also find time to invite her back.

She would accept every gift given to Gu Qiaoqiao and then return the favor at the appropriate time.

This back-and-forth behavior gave the original owner the illusion that she would win!

If you persevere, you will win!

The end result was that after six years of licking, he had nothing.

Actually, it can't be said that Gu Qiaoqiao is a bitch. She is essentially a very simple girl next door and doesn't have many ulterior motives.

She felt that since they were all good classmates, there was no need to ruin their good relationship just because of a failed confession.

She made it very clear from the beginning that she only wanted to be friends with the original owner of this body.

Her relationship with the original owner of this body was indeed that of friends.

When the original owner of this body invited her to hang out, she would invite a few classmates along, and they would all hang out together; it didn't really count as a date.

Eating with the original owner of this body didn't mean anything by it; it's just a common occurrence for classmates to go to the cafeteria together in high school.

Accepting the original owner's gift was also out of friendship.

Gifts from friends are given with good intentions, and it would be impolite to refuse them.

As for return gifts...
