"Okay, not girlfriend, baby."

Xi Chenzhou curled his lips and solemnly returned to the original form of address.

Lin Xuechun completely admitted defeat. Not only could she not argue with him, but she also didn't have his thick skin.

Call me whatever you want.

She glanced outside; it was almost dark, and she hadn't had dinner yet. The cafeteria would be closing soon.

"Could you please move aside? I need to get back to my dorm."

She was afraid he would follow her, so she didn't mention going to the cafeteria.

Xi Chenzhou stepped aside: "I'll go back with you."

"Whatever." Lin Xuechun tugged at her backpack strap, started walking, and trotted out.

This time she was too lazy to run. She was too hungry, had no energy, and felt listless.

Xi Chenzhou followed beside her.

The two walked side by side through the corridor outside the classroom and then turned down the stairs.

Xi Chenzhou turned his head to look at her: "Were you training for the weekend's competition just now?"

"Hmm." Lin Xuechun stared at the steps beneath her feet. With her mask and hat covering her face, she didn't feel as uncomfortable as she had when she first faced him.

"I'll be there this weekend too. The competition starts at 9 o'clock." Xi Chenzhou stepped down the last step and put his hands into his hoodie pockets.

"Oh." Lin Xuechun kept her eyes straight ahead, her gaze fixed on the path beneath her feet.

There was a small puddle of stain ahead, like soup that someone had spilled. She didn't notice it and was about to step on it in two or three steps when Xi Chenzhou saw it, grabbed her backpack strap, and gently pulled it back.

Lin Xuechun felt a tug on her shoulder, stopped in her tracks, and turned her head in confusion. Xi Chenzhou released his grip, tilted his chin forward, his Adam's apple bobbing, and said casually, "Don't step on it."

Lin Xuechun looked in the direction he pointed out and saw a small puddle of sticky, unidentified liquid on the ground.

She frowned, took a step back, and walked around him.

Xi Chenzhou then walked around her and continued walking alongside her.

His tall figure filled out the loose black hoodie, his head and neck were upright, his shoulders were broad, the collar of the hoodie was a little big and tilted slightly to one side, the drawstring of the hood hung down at different heights, his hands were casually put into the pockets of the hoodie, his long legs were incredibly long, and with a sharp and delicate face, his presence was really too strong.

As Lin Xuechun walked, she subtly moved her feet to the side, trying to distance herself from him.

Xi Chenzhou would always notice, and then quietly stick close to him, pursuing him relentlessly.

Will my baby come to watch my match this weekend?

He continued the previous topic, glancing at her sideways. A few strands of her hair were blown by the wind, falling to his chest and getting tangled with the drawstring of his hat.

He raised his hand and gently parted the tangled strands of hair, smoothing them behind her back.

Lin Xuechun awkwardly raised her hand to press down the brim of her hat, but ultimately couldn't bring herself to refuse outright: "We'll talk about it later."

As darkness fell, the streetlights on campus gradually came on.

We were almost at the dormitory building when we saw three or five students riding bicycles passing by every now and then. I didn't know what they were in such a hurry to do, as they were pedaling very fast.

A few more bicycles sped past, and Xi Chenzhou naturally raised his right hand, put his arm around Lin Xuechun's right shoulder, and pulled her closer to him: "Be careful, there are cars."

Lin Xuechun was pulled so that the left side of her body gently bumped into his arms. The warmth of his chest made her face flush, but thankfully she had a mask to cover it.

She stopped in her tracks, instinctively shrinking back into his arms. Xi Chenzhou stopped too, but didn't pull his hand away from her shoulder. Holding her half-in his embrace, he lowered his neck and whispered in her ear, "Baby, are you still angry with me?"

The low voice vibrated in her ear, making her earlobe tingle and tingle.

Lin Xuechun moved her neck slightly, and with a slight turn of her head, she could see half of his profile with its smooth curves. He had very shallow double eyelids, thin eyelids with a barely noticeable line on them, and a particularly straight nose.

"Hmm? Baby."

She didn't speak, and Xi Chenzhou lowered his head even further, nuzzling her cheek with the tip of his nose like a dog sniffing. Her hair had a faint cherry blossom scent, like the smell of shampoo.

Lin Xuechun felt a tingling, itchy sensation from his breath, and half of her body went limp. Her voice changed tone, sounding like she was pouting: "Still angry?"

"How can I make the baby calm down?" Xi Chenzhou asked in a low voice, his tone full of doting affection.

Lin Xuechun felt like her ears were pregnant, and her heart was pounding. He was usually such a cold and arrogant person, how come he could be so good at coaxing people?

She was almost unable to resist.

She bit her lip and remained silent, refusing to engage with his words.

To everyone's surprise, Xi Chenzhou raised his finger and hooked it near her ear, pulling her mask down and exposing her blushing face to his view.

He looked at her with his dark eyes.

When she met his gaze, Lin Xuechun looked away as if burned, her eyelashes trembling, her pearly teeth gently biting her lower lip, her small face burning red.

Xi Chenzhou gently pinched her chin, forcing her to look up at him. Lin Xuechun had nowhere to hide, and Xing'er's eyes widened as she glared at him, both ashamed and angry: "Xi Chenzhou, you're so annoying..."

Her lips opened and closed as she spoke, like rose petals.

Her eyes, when staring at someone, are also moist and sparkling, making her look charming and lively.

Her whole face looked incredibly vibrant and beautiful.

Xi Chenzhou's heart softened at just one look; he even adored her pouty expression.

"Yes, it's my fault, I made you angry, baby," he said, a slight smile playing on his lips, his voice still carrying a coaxing tone. "Can you add me back on WeChat? If you add me back, I'll scold you every day until you calm down."

The two of them were very close now. From a distance, it looked like Xi Chenzhou was holding her in his arms, looking down at her and talking to her. In fact, that was pretty much the position. Anyway, they looked quite affectionate.

Every now and then, a classmate would walk by and glance at the two of them.

Lin Xuechun was already shy, and being surrounded by people made her even more embarrassed. To make matters worse, Xi Chenzhou had his arm around her shoulder and was pinching her chin, insisting on getting an answer. She couldn't run away even if she wanted to. Feeling the gazes of others, she could only close her eyes and hide her head in his arms so that no one could see her face.

As she dodged, Xi Chenzhou released his grip on her chin and gently pulled her into his arms.

Now it really turned into him pulling her into his arms.

Lin Xuechun pressed her body against his, her cheek against his chest.

Once he picked her up, Xi Chenzhou wouldn't let go, just like a wolf grabbing a rabbit and refusing to release her.

She felt amazing; she was slim but not skinny, with curves in all the right places, soft to the touch, and smelled wonderful.

He absolutely loved it.

I feel like my heart is completely filled.

I'm very satisfied.

Lin Xuechun's arms were held by him, so she had no choice but to raise both hands and push him outwards with all her might. Unexpectedly, her palms landed right on his abs, and she could feel the hardness even through his hoodie.

It's impossible to move it.

"Xi, Xi Chenzhou, let go..." She twisted and struggled softly in his arms.

Xi Chenzhou had finally managed to get his hands on him, and he was reluctant to let go. "Can I hold you a little longer?"

"No, let go..." She continued to turn her body away.

"Fine, I won't let go." He deliberately misinterpreted her words, making Lin Xuechun laugh in exasperation. She reached out and pinched his waist. "I...said...don't hug me, let go!"

He had no excess fat on his waist, and she didn't twist anything; her palm only held the fabric of his hoodie.

She stubbornly grabbed at his waist with her little hands, struggling like a fish, but not too much, afraid of attracting attention.

As he struggled, he realized something was wrong. His movements suddenly stopped, as if someone had struck his pressure points. His cheeks burned bright red, burning terribly.

"You, you, you..."

She hated him so much. Lin Xuechun bit her lip in shame, burying her face resignedly in his chest, not daring to move.
