You are all bad women! Don't come over!

In Shen Mochen's bedroom, Liu Chaoyan was calmly organizing the room with him.

Before Shen Mochen arrived, the people from team 0819 had already arranged and cleaned the room, so there wasn't much left to do but to organize some small items that Shen Mochen had brought with him.

While arranging the bedding for Shen Mochen, Liu Chaoyan softly said, "After Sister Cai left, Muxue and Sister Xia get along best. They usually take a bath around 9 pm. Shen, please give them some space during that time…"

"I understand, Sister Cai told me," Shen Mochen said.

For Han Muxue, many daily routines could be embarrassing, and the greatest kindness during such times is not to watch her.

"Hmm, it's good that someone as understanding as you came. I was a bit worried before you came…"

Liu Chaoyan turned around and smiled radiantly. Her every pose and smile was still so perfect, as if a countless number of times sculpted by the hands of a divine artist. Dressed in a white robe, she resembled an elegant and stunning white lotus.

Shen Mochen felt a stir in his heart and smiled with pursed lips, "It's a good thing that a guy like me came. I hope I won't cause any trouble for the captain."

"How could that be? It doesn't really affect me much..." Liu Chaoyan lightly blinked, revealing a hint of a smile. "It probably affects Sister Xia the most."

With a male present, the greatest change was having to be mindful of the differences between the sexes, not being as casual as before in daily life. But for Liu Chaoyan, who was naturally dignified, the impact wasn't significant. It's the more forthright and casual Xia Qingrou who might face many awkward situations.

"Haha…"

Shen Mochen chuckled awkwardly, thinking to himself that her thick skin wouldn't let anything bother her.

By then, Shen Mochen's room had been fully organized, but Liu Chaoyan didn't leave immediately. Instead, she sat down on a chair and looked at Shen Mochen with a gentle voice, "I have heard about what happened to General Yin, I didn't expect such a thing... How are you holding up now?"

Shen Mochen's expression slightly changed and he lowered his head: "I'm okay, thanks for your concern."

Liu Chaoyan continued to smile, "I'm the captain of team 0819, and if nothing unexpected happens, we will probably be together for at least two more years... If there is anything on your mind, or if there is anything upsetting you, feel free to come and talk to me."

Shen Mochen smiled, "Yes, I know, Confidante sister."

Liu Chaoyan also covered her mouth and chuckled, then slightly restrained her expression, "There's another thing I wanted to ask."

"Please, you don't have to be so formal."

Liu Chaoyan hesitated slightly, her brows furrowing lightly. "How are you and Miss Catherine these days, are you still on good terms?"

Shen Mochen was taken aback, pondered for a moment, and then seriously said, "We have broken up, now we are just good friends."

His relationship with Catherine was rather complicated, and it also involved some of her privacy, which Shen Mochen was not at liberty to explain. However, he and Catherine did not have much in the way of feelings.

Catherine was very fond of him, but he hadn't realized that her feelings held much love… Perhaps to Catherine, he was simply a special playmate.

"It's special, yet not special," because in the end, Miss Catherine didn't have any other playmates. It's also not special because no matter what, he was just a playmate.

Being with him was joyful, but losing him wouldn't feel particularly unbearable.

Especially compared to those girls who were passionately enthusiastic about him.

Liu Chaoyan slightly furrowed her brows. Shen Mochen spoke lightly, but she had seen Catherine a few days ago at the school anniversary. Relying on her intuition, she determined that Catherine had special feelings for Shen Mochen.

However, she also knew that human emotions were manifold... even love varied in intensity and quantity. She didn't know how much Catherine felt for Shen Mochen.

She was very curious about how far their relationship had progressed, why they started dating, and why they broke up... According to her previous observations, their relationship didn't seem as intimate as that of ordinary lovers.

Liu Chaoyan was very curious, but she had no plans to probe deeply today. They had only met a few times and weren't familiar enough to discuss personal secrets without reservations.

"Miss Catherine is a really nice girl... I wonder, how do you see her, Shen?"

Pausing for a moment, Liu Chaoyan smiled and gazed into Shen Mochen's eyes.

"She is indeed very nice... but we are incompatible, and moreover, I only consider her a friend," Shen Mochen's eyelids drooped.

However, following this casual clarification, an image of Catherine's nearly bare body unintentionally surfaced in Shen Mochen's mind, and he wondered, 'Really, just as a friend?'

Her lonely expression under the night sky, the teasing in her eyes when she played tricks, the joyful smile when she was happy, the pouted lips when she was irritated... all quite attractive.

"A friend, huh..." Liu Chaoyan observed Shen Mochen's expression, gently touched her hair beside her ear, and chuckled, "If that's the case, then it's for the best."

"Are you referring to Xia... sister?"

Liu Chaoyan nodded with a smile, "Ha ha ha, yes, I was surprised to see you and Xia sister advance so quickly. Sorry, Shen, Xia sister is so enthusiastic, it must be difficult for you."

Shen Mochen thought to himself how polite she was being, calling it enthusiasm? That's obsession! Crazy girl, alright!

"It is somewhat..." Shen Mochen replied with a diplomatic smile.

Liu Chaoyan took a deep breath and seriously looked at Shen Mochen, "I've known Xia sister for two years now. Although she is bubbly and somewhat silly, her character is exceptionally noble... I know that your relationship with Xia sister isn't by choice, but since you are together now, I hope you treat her well. Even if you don't like her, please don't hurt her, okay?"

Looking into Liu Chaoyan's clear, autumn-water-like eyes, Shen Mochen's heart raced slightly, and he felt instinctively guilty but then thought that this wasn't something difficult, and earnestly nodded.

"Captain, please rest assured, I understand."

"When teammates interact over time, some conflicts are inevitable. If such a day ever comes, please be more tolerant. If you have any issues, come directly to me, and I will definitely try to help you resolve them," After saying a few thoughtful words, Liu Chaoyan smiled and stood up, "It's getting late, I won't disturb you any longer. You should rest early."

"Okay..." Shen Mochen stood up and walked Liu Chaoyan to the door, then suddenly thought of something and called out softly, "Ah, please wait a moment!"

Liu Chaoyan was about to leave when she heard Shen Mochen's call, and turned her head to ask, "What's the matter?"
