After his blunder in the handsome guy's comment section was exposed.

Gong Shaoyang was taken away by ambulance.

The person Xi Chenzhou called to handle the case was a lawyer from his mother's law firm. He came from a litigation background and specialized in similar cases, and had never lost.

After the person arrived and made contact with the school and the police station, Gong Shaoyang's punishment was already known. Not only did he get beaten up for nothing, but he would also be detained for fifteen days after his injuries healed, and finally, the school would expel him.

When Gong's parents found out, they wanted to make a scene, but they couldn't.

Firstly, both of them work for state-owned enterprises and are locals. If their son is beaten for such a shameful thing, it would be a huge disgrace if word got out.

Secondly, I asked someone to check the background of the opposing lawyer, and they found that he was completely silent.

He slunk home and went to prepare for his son's trip abroad.

Xi Chenzhou didn't bother to bandage his wound. He just went to the infirmary to get some saline solution to rinse it before continuing to send friend requests to Lin Xuechun on his phone.

Unfortunately, the message was sent out without a trace.

Lin Xuechun didn't reply to a single message.

However, she did click to view them all.

Xi Chenzhou's most recent post reads: "Baby, I'm downstairs at your dorm, can you come down and chat?"

Is he really there?

Lin Xuechun was a little curious.

Holding my phone, I walked to the balcony, pressed my back against the wall, and cautiously peeked out to look downstairs.

Sure enough, I saw a tall figure wearing a gray hoodie. His short hair was neat, and his tall and strong frame made the clothes look great. He was leaning against the tree trunk, his neck was lowered, and he was looking at his phone.

The fingers are still typing on the screen.

Lin Xuechun's phone was buzzing.

All of these messages were sent by him.

As if sensing something, he paused in his typing and suddenly looked up. Lin Xuechun was so startled that she quickly shrank back, pressing her back against the wall, her heart pounding.

Did he just see her?

Probably not. He doesn't even know which dormitory she lives in.

However, his reaction was too sharp; she only stared at him for a few seconds, and he immediately noticed.

Lin Xuechun was still thankfully thinking that she hadn't been discovered when her phone vibrated again.

Friend request message from Xi Chenzhou:

Is my baby secretly watching me?

How about we go downstairs?

【Wait for you】

He... he actually found her!

Doesn't that mean he knows she saw all the messages he sent?!

Lin Xuechun covered her burning cheeks, biting her lip in annoyance. She should have known better than to come and peek.

Waaaaah, so embarrassing!

Before she could process her emotions, her phone vibrated again.

This time, I was notified to attend the training via the etiquette group of the AIC organizing committee.

The work groups are small groups created according to specific divisions of labor; Lin Xuechun and Zhou Xinran are not in one of these small groups.

Zhou Xinran doesn't need to attend the meeting.

Since the incident, Lin Xuechun has not left her dormitory alone. She gets nervous just thinking about having to face so many people at the meeting.

I simply found a mask and put it on.

He was also wearing a baseball cap.

Fully armed.

But Xi Chenzhou is still downstairs. If I go down now, I'll definitely run into him. What should I do?

But the group chat was urging me to arrive on time.

Having no other choice, Lin Xuechun reluctantly went out after struggling with the decision for a while.

As she was about to leave the dormitory, she peeked out furtively like a thief. When she saw Xi Chenzhou still standing there, she shrank back, her face scrunched up. How was she going to get out?

Time passed second by second.

The training time is getting closer and closer, and if we don't leave now, it will be too late.

Forget it, should she just rush out?

While Xi Chenzhou was checking his phone, she took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and assumed a starting position with one foot forward and one foot back, silently counting 1, 2, 3—

run!

After silently reciting the words, the figure rushed out of the dormitory gate.

Then, with his calves moving incredibly fast, he first ran down the steps with a clattering sound, and then rushed towards the direction of the teaching building where the meeting was being held.

Xi Chenzhou was also notified to pick up some competition form. He lowered his head and replied to the teacher, "Received," when he felt a shadow run past him.

Before he could react, the figure in front of him took a few steps and his hat flew off. Instinctively, he stopped, leaned back, and turned his head—

Her long, smooth, jet-black hair, like ribbons, flowed in a graceful arc through the air. A mask covered most of her face, and her bright, almond-shaped eyes, filled with a hint of panic, were wide open. Her little hand waved in the air, trying to grab the baseball cap.

The moment Xi Chenzhou looked up, his gaze met that small face that had turned its head away.

Who else could it be but the baby he'd been waiting for all this time?

We finally caught her!

Xi Chenzhou's dark eyes lit up, and he took long strides to give chase. As soon as Lin Xuechun saw him, she didn't even bother to pick up her hat and turned to continue running.

It's like a little white rabbit seeing a big bad wolf.

It hopped and skipped around incredibly fast, its hair swinging wildly behind it as it ran.

Her back view is slender and beautiful.

If Xi Chenzhou wanted to chase after her, he could have caught up quickly, but when he saw the panic and nervousness in her eyes the moment she met his gaze, she was so flustered that she didn't even bother to pick up her hat. He couldn't bear to chase after her anymore, so he stopped to pick up her hat.

After picking up the hat, he immediately had to go to a teacher's office to get something.

Okay, let's give the shy bunny some time to process this.

He smiled wryly, glanced at the hat in his hand—a gray-pink soft-top baseball cap with an embroidered English logo on the front. He had never seen her wear a hat before, but he knew it would look beautiful. He patted the dust off the hat and carefully held it in his hand.

Lin Xuechun ran all the way into the teaching building before stopping.

She took off her mask, revealing a rosy little face. Her rosy lips were slightly parted, and she was panting heavily. Her chest rose and fell with her breath. Running so fast suddenly made her lungs feel like they were about to explode. She felt so uncomfortable. She put her little hand to her chest and kept gently rubbing it.

Luckily, they didn't catch up with us just now; it was so close!

It's a pity about her little pink hat; it was her favorite baseball cap.

I wonder if it will still be there when I go back later.

The light in her watery eyes dimmed, she pouted unhappily, opened her slender fingertips, and combed and tossed the hair on her shoulders back before putting her mask back on.

The training session Lin Xuechun attended today mainly focused on the precautions to take at the venue during the two days of the competition.

We also did a quick rehearsal of the day's schedule.

For example, how to guide guests into the venue and onto the stage, how to position them, and some common reception etiquette.

The organizing committee's etiquette team was divided into two groups.

One group follows the guests, offering topics and presenting trophies; they must wear custom-made ceremonial uniforms.

One group is the ordinary kind, who greets the participating teams at the entrance of the venue, guides them in, or answers the participants' questions, such as where to report for which project, where the restrooms are, and so on.

The uniform was a white T-shirt provided by the organizing committee.

Lin Xuechun was assigned to the ordinary etiquette class.

Somewhat surprisingly, Guan Ying was the main person in charge of the etiquette team this time.

Lin Xuechun then realized that Guan Ying had quite a few identities: she was the vice president of the basketball club, a member of the student union's publicity department, and a member of the school's etiquette team. She frequently participated in large-scale school events and had a wealth of experience.

Guan Ying was the main speaker at this training course.

Lin Xuechun and Guan Ying weren't actually close; they were just nodding acquaintances. After class, they didn't have much to talk about. As Lin Xuechun packed her things to leave, Guan Ying, who had been talking to someone else, saw her about to leave and called out, "Junior!"

Guan Ying ignored the person who was speaking and walked over to her warmly.
