Delta: Taming wheat in a dream, I, Said

"Wheat, what's wrong?"

Inside the rat enclosure, Zoya sat on the sofa in a duck-like position, cupping Mai Xiaowen's small face in her hands, her blue eyes filled with worry.

"Why did you run away yesterday?"

Zoya was very worried about her best friend. She didn't understand why Mai Xiaowen had chosen to avoid Bai Kang's invitation yesterday.

As things normally should have gone, shouldn't Xiaomai have gone to the hotel together, even if they didn't do anything? Shouldn't that have prevented Bai Kang and Die's relationship from escalating indefinitely?

Not all novels have this kind of plot, where two women are fighting and neither is willing to give in.

If it were her, and Bai Kang were her boyfriend, she would never give in to him. Even if she accepted that Die was Bai Kang's girlfriend, she would at least take the position of the main girlfriend.

Isn't this what asserting sovereignty means?

Why did wheat choose to avoid the market yesterday?

Mai Xiaowen looked haggard, with obvious dark circles under her eyes, clearly indicating that she hadn't slept all night.

She slowly turned her head, looked at Zoya who was worried about her for a long time, opened her mouth, shook her head, and said nothing.

Zoya panicked and shouted angrily, "Wheat, how could you do this?! I'm just concerned about you! I'm worried about you!!"

"Do you still consider me a sister? You're clearly in trouble but won't tell me anything! Tell me, and we can solve it together! I have money, I have power, is there anything we can't handle?"

"If you keep going like this, your man will run off with someone else! And never come back!!!"

Hearing Zoya's complaints in her ear, a flicker of emotion appeared in Mai Xiaowen's empty eyes. She hesitated for a moment, then whispered:

"You swear that you will never tell a third person what I'm about to say."

Zoya's eyes suddenly lit up.

Thank goodness, this little devil finally agreed to speak, so her all-night pestering wasn't in vain.

She wasn't afraid of how big Xiaomai's troubles were; she was only afraid that Xiaomai would keep them to herself, say nothing, and try to solve them on her own.

In that case, even if she had extraordinary abilities, she would have nowhere to use them.

Fortunately, the wheat harvest has finally eased.

She quickly straightened her posture, sitting very properly like a model student in etiquette class, raising four fingers to head height, and nodding her little head vigorously like a drum.

"Yes, yes, I swear, I swear, I'm a man of my word. If anyone else tells me, I'll stay single for life."

Mai Xiaowen shook her head and said calmly, "I need you to swear that if you tell anyone else, Mai Xiaowen will be single for the rest of her life."

Zoya exclaimed in shock, "How could you do this? Wheat, you cheated!"

Mai Xiaowen looked at you as if she had seen right through you: "Are you going to swear an oath or not? If not, then forget it and go back to the Insect Pavilion."

Zoya scratched her head, turning her smooth blonde hair into a mess. After a while, she said dejectedly, "I swear, if I tell anyone else what I hear next, Mai Xiaowen will be single for life."

After saying that, she said angrily, "Wheat, you're so annoying!"

Mai Xiaowen took a light breath.

She knew that although the young lady in front of her appeared glamorous, she was actually very lonely, and almost everyone only wanted the Haff coins in her pocket.

When Zoya persistently approached her when she was withdrawn, it was largely because Zoya sensed a kindred spirit in her.

Two lonely children eventually became friends.

Mai Xiaowen tilted her head and thought for a moment.

No, they are not alone now, because they have real friends. The club, as the name suggests, is a big family where there is almost no scheming among them.

However, no matter what, Zoya remains her most important friend.

She thought that she was also Zoya's love.

Mai Xiaowen pursed her lips, and after a struggle within herself, slowly spoke:

"Back then, I was stranded on the top-secret 001 spacecraft. It wasn't as simple as you think; I was trapped for five days. During those five days, I experienced..."

……

Mianyue University,

Bai Kang, exhausted after running thirty laps around Lake Mianyue, lay on the grass, drenched in sweat. His loose-fitting clothes clung to his body, revealing his clear outline.

"Phew, thirty laps, that's fucking tiring. Haha, three hundred kilometers in one go, in a novel I'd be at least a Qi Refining stage."

After saying those words while panting, he felt sticky and uncomfortable all over. He looked down and smelled himself, and a strong stench of sweat hit him. His brows furrowed.

Without hesitation, I took off the short-sleeved shirt that was soaked with sweat. The summer night breeze wasn't cool; instead, it was rather stuffy.

However, compared to before, it's definitely cooler to be shirtless.

Strictly speaking, it's easy to catch a cold if you take off your shirt and let the wind blow on you right after a long run, but Bai Kang's physical condition is much better than the average person's, and he was really uncomfortable, so he didn't care too much about that.

Under the moonlight, his six-pack abs were clearly visible.

Generally speaking, to get eight-pack abs, you need to do specialized fitness training.

Being strong doesn't necessarily mean having eight-pack abs; six-pack abs are the norm. Most soldiers have four or six-pack abs, with eight-pack abs being the minority.

Therefore, Bai Kang actually has a very good physique.

Butterfly really liked his abs and would often reach out her mischievous little hands to slip inside Bai Kang's clothes.

After resting for a while, Bai Kang took out his phone and glanced at it.

It was already 3 a.m.

The entire campus was deserted; I guess besides Bai Kang, only ghosts would be out at this time.

"Um?"

Bai Kang suddenly noticed that Zoya's status showed she was online.

After thinking for a moment, he typed two words and clicked send.

"Are you there?"

In less than three seconds, the chat interface showed that the other party was typing.

"This guy's a night owl too," Bai Kang chuckled.

Zoya: "Kangzi, has anyone ever told you that if you're here, the first move is always the Joker?"

Bai Kang: "Miss, am I the clown?"

Zoya: "Hmm, I have a pretty good impression of you."

The subtext is that you are not the clown for now.

"It's so late, why isn't Miss asleep yet?" Bai Kang typed.

A gentle night breeze blew, and the burning calories finally stopped releasing heat, allowing Bai Kang to feel the coolness.

He picked up his short-sleeved shirt and walked towards the dormitory, chatting as he went.

Zoya: "And you're one to talk, you weren't asleep either."

Bai Kang: "I was punished by running thirty laps around Mianyue Lake, and I just finished."

The other end shows that it is typing, but there is no reply.

Immediately afterward, Zoya made a video call, which Bai Kang answered.

"Hahaha, Xiao Kangzi, I remember today is the first day of classes for freshmen, and you've already been punished. Tsk tsk tsk."

Bai Kang said helplessly, "I played too wildly with Die last night and was late this morning."

"Serves you right! You lecherous bastard, you deserve this!"

"Uh..." Bai Kang was speechless.

After a while, Zoya asked curiously, "Who is your counselor? Even though you've eaten, this punishment is a bit too much. Generally, ten laps would be enough."

Bai Kang thought to himself that he had "openly provoked" the counselor.

"Our counselor's name is Li Youwei. He's very tall, almost twice my size. He looks intimidating."

Zoya suddenly realized, and a look of understanding crossed her face.

"No wonder, it's Li Kuaitou, that makes no surprise."
