"I can't keep running like this, I'll run out of breath," I leaned against the wall, gasping for air, occasionally looking back. You asked why I was in this state, and it's because there's a guy chasing after me.

"Mr. Youjie... please stop running around. Let's go meet the master together," a voice seemed to be getting closer. I only saw a figure running towards me at an invisible speed.

"Holy crap..." sensing the danger, I didn't care about my exhausted body and ran as fast as I could.

"Mr. Youjie..."

"Alice, please spare me,"

"This is what the master wants, I only follow the master's instructions,"

"But doesn't your code of conduct include not forcing others when they're unwilling?"

"I only adhere to the maid's supreme code - obey everything the master says,"

"Damn it..."

On the street, you could see a maid relentlessly chasing after me. Onlookers were filled with confusion.

This maid, named Alice, is the dedicated maid of the principal. Apart from being somewhat silly and cute in certain aspects, she is otherwise rigid and obedient to the master's commands.

As for why she's chasing me, it all started a few days ago...

"My student..."

The principal sat on a leather chair, crossing her arms and looking at me with a queen-like expression.

"Principal, you called me here. What's the matter?"

For some reason, this office of the principal's felt oppressive to me.

"Previously, I proposed the idea of an exchange student program with Feng Yu High School... you know what that means, right?"

"Exchange students are when two schools exchange students with each other, right?"

"That's the general idea," the principal smiled slightly.

"What does it have to do with me?"

Usually, only the top-performing students become exchange students.

"It has a lot to do with you. Because you have successfully qualified,"

"What?"

"???"

"No... no, how could I be fit for this? I don't deserve this qualification,"

"Do you have such a low opinion of yourself? Besides... it's not necessary to be a top student to qualify. Besides, if only top students were to go, it wouldn't be fair..."

"Are you saying... I have the worst grades?"

"I don't mean that... in my eyes, all my students are equally excellent..."

I always felt that the principal's words weren't sincere, but her serious expression didn't reveal anything.

"Mr. Youjie, please have more confidence,"

Alice, the principal's dedicated maid, made great-tasting red tea and seemed exceptionally kind.

"Are there no other candidates? Must it be me?"

"There's definitely more than one qualification. It's estimated to be around twenty people, and you can become one of them. Isn't that an honor?"

"Leaving my own school to go to another, how could that be an honor? It's like being abandoned. Besides... I know Feng Yu High School, it's far from here. If I go there, unless it's a long break, I can't expect to go home. It takes a whole day to get there by car,"

"Are you worried about this? The school pays for tuition and living expenses, and the accommodation at Feng Yu High School is comparable to a luxury apartment..."

"Praising other schools, are you okay with the principal?"

"Of course I'm okay with it. Who knows, maybe I'll acquire Feng Yu High School in the distant future."

"Hehe..."

Whether it's me who's abnormal or the principal who's abnormal, all I can say is the principal is just the principal.

"But I still refuse..."

"Why? Good students at our school wouldn't refuse..."

"But I want to refuse..."

"Are you sure you want to refuse?"

The principal looked at me with sharp eyes, making me feel uneasy.

"I... of course I want to refuse..."

"Very well... I like students with integrity... You can leave now..."

"Oh..." The principal seemed to be in a bad mood, and I knew better than to say anything. I obediently left, and when I reached the door...

The principal said something that sent shivers down my spine, "Even if I have to cause trouble at your house, I will make you agree!"

After leaving, I didn't take that statement seriously, but then the nightmares began.

Every day, Alice came to disrupt my life. If I tried to escape, she would chase after me.

It's just like now, my peaceful daily life has been completely disrupted.

"Yuqian... Yuqian... come save your boyfriend..."

In a moment of danger, I called Su Yuqian...

But the response on the other end of the phone was disappointing, "Huh? Save you... it's better if you're dead, scum! By the way... you're not my boyfriend at all. I don't have a boyfriend like you!"

Then the call ended. What's going on? At critical moments, everyone just abandons me one by one.

When I was isolated, desperate, and ready to be at the mercy of others, Zhiye appeared in front of me.

"Zhiye..."

"Jie?"

"Are you here to save me?"

"...I'm here to save Jie..."

"Ah... it's really Zhiye... wait a minute... why did... you tie up my hands and feet..."

"Jie... how can you chase and play with other girls..."

"I... I didn't... I was just..."

"Saying more won't change anything... the unfaithful Jie can only be imprisoned,"

"Um... Zhiye... it's not like that..."

"We have to... imprison Jie..."

It's over, Zhiye has become corrupted,

"Mr. Youjie,"

"Alice, come save me!"
