Chapter 12 - The Scourge of Clean-Up

"Don't you dare!" Shen You threatened fiercely.

Zhu Ge laughed mischievously. His outstretched finger turned into a palm and dragged Shen You's arm.

Shen You was pulled up and finally escaped the fate of being laid on Huo Xiao's body.

When Shen You looked at Huo Xiao again, she found that his entire face was flushed red and he was a bit short of breath.

"Are you... okay?" Shen You asked worriedly.

Huo Xiao's breathing was heavy and he looked like he was about to faint.

Shen You picked up a book in her hand and fanned Huo Xiao with all her might.

The circulation of the air finally calmed Huo Xiao down.

He glared at Shen You fiercely.

Shen You smiled awkwardly. "I'm sorry... I couldn't help..."

Huo Xiao's face turned even redder when he heard this.

Zhu Ge whistled twice and even sang the song 'I Was Young Then'...

Huo Xiao sat up straight and did not look at Shen You anymore.

Shen You sat down aggrievedly and secretly patted her thigh.

"Control! Control! What if I scare him away!" Shen You cursed at her impulsiveness.

If this baby was really scared away by her, it would be hard to bring him back!

Finally, the bell rang and saved Shen You.

This time, Huo Xiao could not run away for a while...

Huo Xiao did not run away until after school.

Shen You comforted herself, "You must coax this ancestor well, don't make him angry again!"

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Shen You made Huo Xiao angry again.

After school, Huo Xiao's group was left to do the class cleaning.

Although the elite class had certain rights, this hygienic environment was where everyone lived together.

For the sake of themselves and everyone, this was also an unavoidable responsibility...

There were six people left behind, three boys and three girls.

Like in most schools, the easy chores were left to the girls.

The heavy jobs were taken care of by the boys.

However, everyone knew that Huo Xiao had serious germaphobia, so naturally, they did not dare to let him participate in this dirty work.

Therefore, Huo Xiao was responsible for tidying up the class library area.

Since there was one less boy, Shen You was "duty-bound" to replace him as the substitute.

Shen You carried the bucket into the classroom.

A full bucket of water rippled outward as she walked.

Shen You picked up the mop and put it in the pail.

The water overflowed in an instant.

Shen You screamed and jumped two steps away.

However, her shoes were still stained with water.

Shen You clicked her tongue and lamented the pitiful fate of her shoes.

Then, she continued to push the mop into the pail.

Finally, the mop was wet. Shen You picked up the wet mop and began to mop the floor.

She dragged the mop all the way, and for some reason, she felt a sense of pleasure.

Just as she was pushing the mop faster and faster...

A voice suddenly sounded, "Be careful!"

Shen You instantly looked up and saw Huo Xiao walking out from the corner of the library with books in his arms.

Shen You did not have time to brake at all. The mop in her hand rushed straight towards Huo Xiao.

Huo Xiao did not expect that it was Shen You who was mopping the floor. It was too late for him to dodge.

Huo Xiao watched helplessly as the mop in Shen You's hand fell onto his pair of white shoes.

The excess water on the mop splashed out.

Shen You let out an "ah" sound but it did not help.

Huo Xiao was not spared from the area from his calf to his knee.

What was even more terrifying was that a few drops of the splashed water landed on Huo Xiao's chest and... face!

Huo Xiao's face instantly turned red, and he opened his mouth wide and could not stop breathing.

Shen You bent slightly and slowly looked up at Huo Xiao.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at her as if he wanted to strangle her to death.

Shen You subconsciously grabbed the mop and ran back.

As she ran, the mop's long tail swung beautifully at Huo Xiao's feet.

Under everyone's shocked gazes, Shen You fled the scene...

Huo Xiao stood on the spot and almost fainted.

"Shen You!" Finally, the moment Huo Xiao recovered, he squeezed out the name from between his teeth...

From that day onwards, Huo Xiao did not come to school for three days...

Shen you was worried for three whole days!

She was not actually worried about whether Huo Xiao was angry or sick...

She was just worried that her super value storage device would be gone this way!

Just as Shen You was wondering if she needed to look for a new source of luck value...

Huo Xiao appeared...
