I became financially independent right after entering college.

Chapter 38 La la la la la la la la la
Bai Chou leaned against the car door, his arms wrapped around Kim Hyo Joo's soft and boneless waist, his palms unconsciously drawing circles on Kim Hyo Joo's lower back through the thin gray sunscreen.

The night wind blew past, lifting the corner of Kim Hyo Joo's sun protection suit, revealing her butterfly bones faintly visible under the small camisole, fluttering in the moonlight as if about to fly.

"Let me go..."

Kim Hyo-joo placed her hands on Bai Chou's chest, pushing him gently with a reluctant but also welcoming attitude. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and the temperature of the skin on her neck rose little by little, emitting a hazy pink color.

"You're as slippery as a loach. I finally caught you, how can I let you go so easily? Hand over your phone immediately!"

Bai Chou lowered his head, pretended to be angry and frowned, urging the girl in his arms.

"If I don't give it to you, I won't give it to you. If you want it, take it yourself!"

Even though she was at the end of her rope, Kim Hyo-joo still fought stubbornly, snuggling in Bai Chou's arms and struggling.

I didn't expect you to be such a powerful person.

"I knew you would say that."

Bai Chou chuckled, pressed down Kim Hyo Joo's waist with one hand and pulled the girl closer to his arms, then raised his other hand and effortlessly snatched the phone from Kim Hyo Joo's hand.

"I've given you my phone, can you let me go now?"

Kim Hyo-joo pouted like a chipmunk, raised her head and gave Bai Chou a non-threatening glare.

"I got it myself, how can it be said that it was given by you?"

Bai Chou hugged Jin Xiaozhou tightly, glanced at Jin Xiaozhou's phone, and said, "Where's the unlock code? The screen is off."

As he spoke, Bai Chou raised his phone and pointed the front camera at the angry Kim Hyo Joo. After unlocking it, he clicked into Kim Hyo Joo's phone album and swiped his thumb to look through the photos that Kim Hyo Joo had just taken.

"Wow, I took at least thirty or forty photos."

It can be seen that Kim Hyo Joo is the kind of player who takes continuous shots. From the side profile shot when he didn't notice at the beginning, to the front face shot after she called him, she was probably pressing the shutter button throughout the whole process, and even took a few photos when he turned his head.

Generally speaking, the quality of the photos is quite high. After all, the angles are really good and the backgrounds are quite romantic. It really gives you the feeling of spotting a handsome guy while eating in a restaurant and being caught taking a sneak shot.

"Adding background filters is fine, but forget about retouching facial features."

After deleting a few photos in which he happened to be blinking, Bai Chou let go of Kim Hyo-joo and returned the phone to her.

"Know it."

Kim Hyo Joo nodded with a red face. She originally just planned to add some filters.

"Okay, I won't mess with you anymore. It's time to go back to school."

After pinching Kim Hyo Joo's tender and juicy little face which was flushed with rosy red, Bai Chou took out the car keys, unlocked the door, and got into the driver's seat.

Just now, when Bai Chou took Kim Hyo-joo's phone and looked through the photo album, he hugged her for at least two minutes. At this moment, some more intimate interactions would not seem abrupt.

Kim Hyo Joo pouted, sat in the passenger seat and closed the door.

When Bai Chou went back, he still took Shuanglong Avenue. Perhaps because the evening rush hour had passed, the road was not as congested as when he came, but Bai Chou still did not drive very fast.

Dusk, like spilled wine, stained the entire highway. Dark red taillights intertwined with the streetlights and signs on both sides of the road, forming a discontinuous strip of neon lights.

The car windows on both sides were slightly opened, and the evening breeze came in, gently ruffling their hair.

Kim Hyo Joo was not in a hurry to edit the photos in the car. She turned her head from time to time and talked and laughed with Bai Chou. After talking for a while, Kim Hyo Joo said that it felt quite boring. Don’t you like listening to songs and singing? Why don’t you play music while driving?
Bai Chou said that he played it while driving alone in the afternoon, but felt that the sound quality was not very good, so he could only listen to it. He didn't feel anything and didn't think about playing it.

Is the sound quality of the Porsche 911's car audio bad? Kim Hyo-joo said she wanted to listen to some music, so Bai Chou gave her a player that had been connected to the car's Bluetooth and said it had nearly a thousand songs stored in it, so she could search and listen to any of them.

Kim Hyo Joo took the player and played with it for a while. "This little gadget costs 20,000 or 30,000 yuan? That's enough to buy two top-of-the-line Apple phones."

After opening the screen, Kim Hyo-joo scrolled through the pages and selected the song "Insomnia" that she had wanted to listen to last night. She listened to the sound coming from the car stereo for a while.

"Doesn't this sound pretty good? It's much better than the car audio in my dad's Passat." Kim Hyo-joo didn't think there was anything wrong with the sound quality.

Bai Chou smiled and didn't say much.

Seeing that Bai Chou didn't respond, Jin Xiaozhou said, "Don't you men like to hum a few lines when you drive or take a shower? My dad often does this when he drives. Why don't you hum a few lines too?"

Just hum a few lines, Bai Chou didn't care at all. He drove the car, shaking his head and humming casually to the song flowing from the speakers.

Kim Hyo-joo was sitting in the passenger seat, staring at Bai Chou's profile with her face turned sideways, and like the audience at a concert, she was also shaking her head slightly to clap the beat for Bai Chou.

After playing one song, Kim Hyo-joo brought out another song, "As Painful as Death", which is also a Korean song and also a selection from QQ Speed.

The songs chosen by Langya Tianshang back then were really tasteful.

Bai Chou continued to hum, and halfway through, Kim Hyo Joo joined in, singing harmony with Bai Chou, "La la la la la la".

After humming two songs, Kim Hyo-joo, who was already in high spirits, was still not satisfied. Just when she was about to sing another song with Bai Chou, she saw Gate No. 3 of Southern Culture University.

"No more singing, we're already at school."

"Oh~"

The GT silver Porsche sports car slowly drove into ING Plaza from Gate 3 of Namcheon. Kim Hyo-joo's mood gradually calmed down, replaced by a hint of melancholy and reluctance.

Everything about this evening made her reluctant to leave. Although she was the more proactive and thoughtful one in their date, she felt very happy.

Eating together in a high-end restaurant, playing and fighting together, singing together in the car are all very ordinary things, but they make people feel reluctant to part.

What matters is not what you do, but with whom you do it.

"Then I'll go back to the dormitory first~"

After picking up the bag from the back seat, Jin Xiaozhou waved to Bai Chou and turned around to pull the woven belt on the door panel.

"You really don't want to stay with me?
Wait for me for a moment, lock the car and I'll take you back to the dormitory."

"Hehe, then park the car here. I thought you didn't want to take me home." Kim Hyo Joo raised the corners of her mouth slightly and snorted twice proudly.

The only way to enter Nanchuan University by car is from Gate No. 3. After entering the gate, you will see ING Plaza of the North Campus. Bai Chou's dormitory is also in the North Campus, but Jin Xiaozhou's dormitory is in the South Campus.

Jin Xiaozhou thought that Bai Chou didn't drive the car to the South Campus because he wanted her to go back to the dormitory alone.

After getting out of the car, Bai Chou pinched Jin Xiaozhou's fair cheek and gently twisted it, scolding in a low voice: "Is my emotional intelligence so low?"

"That's hard to say." Kim Hyo Joo muttered. After all, she was the one who was trying to create romance all night.

"Xiao Zhou, Bai Chou?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice interrupted the flirting of the young couple.
