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

Chapter 9 Give me the bag, I'll carry it for you.

After washing up, Lin Xuechun walked to the wardrobe.

The temperature in Beijing today is pleasant, around 20 degrees Celsius, with no wind.

She chose a light blue off-shoulder top. The fabric was soft and close-fitting, and the thin layer wrapped around her body, making her back look slender, her chest look upright, her waist look slim, and her hips look round.

Straight-leg jeans paired with canvas shoes.

After changing her clothes, she sat down at her desk and started braiding her hair in front of the mirror.

Her long, jet-black hair was swept to one side of her shoulder and braided into a thick braid at the top and thin at the bottom, hanging loosely over her shoulder, with a white hair accessory tied at the end.

Even without makeup, her skin is naturally baby-soft, pink and tender, her big eyes are bright and clear, and she looks stunning with just a touch of lipstick.

Then I slung a large tote bag over my shoulder and put my laptop and other small items inside.

All done, time to leave.

She had just stepped out of the dormitory building when she saw Xi Chenzhou standing under the locust tree across the street.

"Xi Tongxue," Lin Xuechun's eyes lit up, and she ran to his side like a deer, "Sorry, have you been waiting long?"

Xi Chenzhou's gaze fell on her bright and beautiful face. His eyes flickered slightly, and he slowly uttered two words: "Just arrived."

He raised his left hand and handed over a brown paper bag.

"I brought this for you."

"What?" Lin Xuechun's red lips parted slightly, her bright eyes sparkling.

"Breakfast: a Subway sandwich."

Lin Xuechun didn't expect him to bring her breakfast.

I thought he looked cold and arrogant, not the type to take care of people.

A sandwich here costs around 30 yuan, which isn't cheap.

"How much is it? I'll transfer it to you."

"No need." Xi Chenzhou put his left hand into his hoodie pocket and said calmly.

"Thank you. I'll treat you to coffee later." Lin Xuechun smiled and took the sandwich from his hand.

The two walked side by side toward the school gate.

He is 188 cm tall, and she is 168 cm tall without shoes and 170 cm tall with shoes on. When she walks next to him, her head just goes past his shoulder.

The sunlight was bright, casting two shadows, one tall and one short, close together on the ground.

A breeze blew from the other end of the tree-lined path, carrying the scent of early autumn grass and trees.

He didn't speak, and neither did she.

The straps of their backpacks swayed gently with their footsteps.

Lin Xuechun tightened her grip on the tote bag on her shoulder. Eating wasn't allowed on the subway, and the bookstore she was going to didn't allow outside food either, so she had to make do with a sandwich for now.

She tore open the sandwich wrapper.

Lower your head and take a small bite, chewing slowly.

The tote bag on her shoulder contained her laptop and various small items, which kept slipping off her shoulder. She had to keep an eye on the bag while eating, adjusting it every few bites, keeping both hands very busy.

She was wearing a slightly off-the-shoulder dress, exposing half of her fair shoulder. After walking for a short while, two obvious red marks appeared on her delicate skin from the strap.

Xi Chenzhou's gaze fell on the red mark and stared at it for two seconds.

"Give me your bag, I'll carry it for you."

Carrying bags is usually something couples do. Lin Xuechun paused for a moment, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "I don't think you need to, it's quite heavy."

As she spoke, she reached up and tugged at the strap of her bag.

Xi Chenzhou reached out and took her bag off his shoulder. "Give it to me, otherwise you won't be able to finish it before we get on the subway."

The moment the pressure on her shoulders was relieved, she felt much lighter, and Lin Xuechun didn't insist any further.

"Thank you."

"Let's go."

Xi Chenzhou continued forward.

She was wrapped in his arms, as if she had no weight at all, as light as a feather.

He's really strong.

Lin Xuechun glanced at him sideways while taking a bite of her sandwich, then suddenly remembered, "Oh right... have you had breakfast?"

Xi Chenzhou said calmly, "I ate it."

"A sandwich too?"

"Um."

"I sometimes like to order from their place too. What kind of combination do you like?"

"The kind you're eating now."

The ham in Lin Xuechun's hand is a Western-style ham.

She nodded: "I like this combination too."

Xi Chenzhou: "Hmm."

Lin Xuechun: "Oh."

She had tried her best; she wasn't good at chatting to begin with, and he was also very quiet.

It takes more than ten minutes to walk from the school to the subway station.

She only ate half of the sandwich because she couldn't eat anymore. She held the other half in her hand without touching it, and her expression was a little conflicted.

Xi Chenzhou glanced at her, his eyes understanding: "Can't eat anymore?"

"Hmm," Lin Xuechun said, her face slightly flushed, "I wasn't very hungry this morning."

Xi Chenzhou didn't care: "If you can't eat it, just throw it away."

It has a stomach just like a cat's.

I don't eat much when I eat in the cafeteria.

We ate each grain of rice one by one.

No wonder she's so thin.

Lin Xuechun hesitated: "Wouldn't it be a waste to throw it away? I feel guilty about it."

"Believe me, you won't eat it even if you keep it." That's how his cousin is. Every time she goes out to eat, she insists on packing up the leftovers, and then she either forgets to eat them when she gets home or forgets them on her way home.

Lin Xuechun felt a pang of guilt, as if he had hit the nail on the head. She really didn't plan to eat any more, but she couldn't get over the hurdle of feeling it was a waste.

I've talked about this with friends before, and we found that girls seem to have a tendency to be more interested in the food than they are in the stomach. They want to try everything, but end up not finishing anything, which makes them feel a bit wasteful, but they don't want to change.

However, he seems to understand girls' thoughts very well.

You must have had quite a few girlfriends, right?

Lin Xuechun casually glanced at Xi Chenzhou.

Sunlight filtered through the layers of leaves, casting dappled gold on him.

He put one hand in his sweatshirt pocket and carried her bag with the other, walking at a leisurely pace.

He was wearing a gray essential sweatshirt with broad shoulders and an upright back. A backpack was slung over one shoulder, the strap hanging loosely and swaying as he walked.

His cold, sharp eyes revealed a hint of nonchalance.

Almost every girl who passed by would linger on him for a few seconds, and would also look at him with a gossipy gaze.

Lin Xuechun subconsciously slowed her pace and put some distance between herself and him.

Xi Chenzhou stopped and turned around: "Give me the things."

Ok?

Lin Xuechun was puzzled.

Xi Chenzhou gestured with his chin toward the trash can next to him, and Lin Xuechun realized that he was referring to sandwiches.

She handed him the sandwich she was holding.

He took it, threw it directly into the trash can, and said indifferently, "Now it's me who's wasting it, not you."

what?

Lin Xuechun was amused by his logic and her lips curved into a smile. The guilt she felt for wasting food earlier inexplicably dissipated.

Surprisingly, despite his cold demeanor, he was quite good at taking care of a girl's feelings.

How thoughtful.

For a fleeting moment, she felt a slight stirring of attraction.

"You're so good at comforting people."

She couldn't help but praise him.

Does he know how to comfort people?

His mother always complained that he lacked empathy.

Xi Chenzhou turned his head, his gaze falling on her delicate face. Her eyes were bright and sparkling, like black grapes glistening with dew. Her lips were full and rosy, with a slightly upturned corner. His Adam's apple bobbed slightly. He looked away from her lips and lowered his voice, "Yes, I'm glad I comforted you."
