After being attacked by the rich young ladies with hatchets, I chose to enter "sage mode".

Although Murong Liyue was his girlfriend whom he had just won over before he was killed by the woodcutter in his previous life, it was obvious that the four girls had conspired together that time. Otherwise, how could they have all been waiting for him in the same room by such a coincidence?

Therefore, Murong Liyue is also a very dangerous woman. Although it is ultimately her scumbag boyfriend's fault, in order to save her life, it is best to stay away from girls who have the intention to threaten her life on impulse!

"Joining the club is not an option, mainly because I don't know much about your club, right?"

Bai Yu continued to politely refuse, but little did he know that once he entered the wolf's den, how could he possibly escape?

"Join us! Our club has great benefits, it's easy, and you can even get credits for the year. Plus, you don't have much free time. Join us!"

The short-haired senior student had used her charm and cuteness to the extreme, but Bai Yu remained unmoved.

But Bai Yu would never have imagined that from the moment Murong Liyue lent him the umbrella, she had already decided to recruit Bai Yu into her group.

Why do I say that? Because with Murong Liyue, problems that can be solved with money... aren't problems at all.

"Join our club, and we'll pay you a salary!"

???

Murong Liyue's method of recruiting people is truly unique, isn't it? Offering salaries directly—what's with that?!

"No, I really..."

"Three thousand a month."

Before Bai Yu could finish speaking, Murong Liyue immediately offered a price. Is that reasonable?

"President Murong, I really..."

"four thousand."

It wasn't because Bai Yu was greedy; it was mainly because Murong Liyue's asking price was really good.

Even Bai Yu was starting to waver, but instead of doing anything, they directly offered four thousand just to recruit her into the group?

"No, this price isn't reasonable for me. You're not asking me to do anything, it's really unnecessary. If that's the case, I can just raise the price, right?"

Although the salary is really good, Bai Yu needs to understand the principle of "taking money to solve problems for others".

If I take Murong Liyue's money, I'll have to be timid and hesitant in everything I do, which is obviously not acceptable.

But Bai Yu's comment, "Can we just add this?" immediately received agreement.

I was careless, really careless. Considering my short arms that day, I accidentally said the wrong thing. Damn it!

Murong Liyue stood up, walked to Bai Yu, and took out a membership application from somewhere, handing it to Bai Yu to fill out.

"Yay! This junior is so handsome. Now that he's joined our club, we'll have a guy at our opening ceremony!"

Well, the opening ceremony is after military training. Why does this club give me the illusion that once I enter, I'm destined not to leave?

With a sigh, Bai Yu was a man after all. Although he was a bit of a jerk in his previous life, what he said in front of so many people was like water spilled on the ground. Even though he was a little unwilling, he still signed the application to join the group.

Anyway, judging from what these senior students said, this club doesn't usually have much to do!

Chapter Twenty-One: I hope not! (Please add to your favorites and vote with monthly tickets)

"Junior, your name is Bai Yu, a simple and easy-to-understand name. My name is Zhong Fu, and I'm the vice president of our club. Feel free to contact me if you need anything!"

"My name is Yu Hanri. I used to be the only boy in the club, but now that you're here, I'm not the only one anymore. It's so tough!"

"Murong Liyue, president of the club."

The first two people introduced themselves quite enthusiastically, but when it came to Murong Liyue, it took a sharp turn.

But it doesn't matter. There are only four people in the club now, including Bai Yu. There used to be a senior student, but it seems that something happened. Bai Yu left through the back door as soon as she came in!

When filling out the club application, Bai Yu was flanked by senior student Zhong Fu on his left and senior student Yu Hanri on his right, with Murong Liyue sitting in front of him. He had the feeling that he wouldn't get any good juice until he finished writing.

After finishing the application to join the club, Zhong Fu handed it to Murong Liyue. Murong Liyue took out a stamp from the cabinet behind her, stamped it, and then handed it to Zhong Fu, asking her to submit it to the school for confirmation.

As soon as Zhong Fu left, Yu Hanri, the boy, also left. However, Bai Yu felt that Yu Hanri was effeminate.

Why do I think this way? Because Yu Hanri's behavior and actions are somewhat like a girl's, and her appearance is also relatively soft, unlike a boy's ruggedness.

Anyway, in Bai Yu's opinion, Yu Hanri is either effeminate or gay, no doubt about it. Of course, in today's society, these are already commonplace!

Now that Zhong Fu and Yu Hanri have left, only Bai Yu and Murong Liyue remain in this spacious clubhouse.

Being alone with him was not the situation Bai Yu wanted at all. Just as he was about to find an excuse to run away, Murong Liyue turned around, grabbed a set of clothes, and said...

"Try this dress on, and I'll take your measurements in a bit!"

Actually, Bai Yu didn't find Murong Liyue's words strange at all.

After all, he knew from his previous life that Murong Liyue was a girl who really liked ancient costumes, so it was normal for her to want him to try them on now, since he was also a member of the club.

Bai Yu took the set of blue-black clothes from Murong Liyue. This was the first time Bai Yu had worn ancient-style clothing since her rebirth.

"Would you like to try them on?"

Bai Yu was talking complete nonsense.

However, Murong Liyue nodded in agreement, confirming that Bai Yu should try it on.

Holding his clothes, Bai Yu went to the dressing room to change. When he came out again, he really did have the air of a refined gentleman.

If Bai Yu from his previous life had worn ancient costumes, he would have truly been described as having the air of a high-ranking official like Ximen Qing. But now, he is completely different and actually has the air of a scholar!

Of course, the clothes didn't seem to fit very well; they were a little small for Bai Yu, making it somewhat inconvenient for her to move around.

Murong Liyue naturally noticed this as well. She took a measuring tape and walked to Bai Yu's side, starting to measure her without waiting for Bai Yu's consent.

A unique fragrance emanating from Murong Liyue wafted into my nostrils. It smelled wonderful, but I have to say, Murong Liyue's act of directly taking measurements close to her body really made it easy for people to have impure thoughts.

"All right."

Upon hearing Murong Liyue say it was all settled, Bai Yu didn't realize when her body had tensed up, and she felt inexplicably nervous.

Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the ill-fitting clothes caused Bai Yu inconvenience, and she accidentally fell directly into Murong Liyue's arms.

Murong Liyue had no idea that Bai Yu would suddenly pounce on her. Before a look of surprise could even appear in her beautiful eyes, she was already caught in Bai Yu's embrace.

Perhaps it was instinct, or a subconscious action, but Bai Yu's tackle on Murong Liyue would obviously hurt her, so in mid-air he could only hold her and make a 180-degree turn.

With a muffled thud, Bai Yu's back slammed heavily onto the ground. The impact of the tile floor against her back was extremely painful.

Murong Liyue was terrified. At this moment, she was clinging to Bai Yu, her small hands tightly gripping Bai Yu's clothes, her eyes closed and afraid to open them.

Holy crap!

Bai Yu is usually a very careful person when it comes to her words, but people sometimes unconsciously say inappropriate things when something unexpected happens or an emergency occurs.

Bai Yu was clearly in an unexpected situation, gasping for breath and yelling "Holy crap!" as he tried to relieve the pain.

When he looked up at Murong Liyue, who was pressing down on him, Murong Liyue also raised her head and their eyes met.

At that moment, their cheeks were so close that Bai Yu could feel Murong Liyue's slow and warm breath.

For some reason, when Bai Yu looked into Murong Liyue's eyes, she was reminded of the scene in her previous life when Murong Liyue smiled gently at her.

Perhaps this icy beauty rarely smiles, but I have rarely seen her smile.

Just as the two were frozen in their somewhat ambiguous pose, the back door of the club was pushed open.

"President, aren't we going to be so busy? Tonight we need to welcome the new junior members, and then..."

Zhong Fu was holding the club application form with the official stamp on it, and before she could finish speaking excitedly, she saw Bai Yu and Murong Liyue lying on the ground, hugging and cuddling.

In that instant, she reached out and covered her mouth. Just as she was about to back out, Yu Hanri leaned over and urged her.

"Zhong Fu, don't block the way, let's go inside first and then... talk..."

Yu Hanri expressed her dissatisfaction with Zhong Fu's behavior of blocking the door and not going in, but she was stunned when she peeked inside.

Before Bai Yu and Murong Liyue could react, Zhong Fu and Yu Hanri had already left and closed the door behind them.

Well, judging from this situation, an immeasurable misunderstanding is about to occur.

Bai Yu could clearly see that a blush was slowly appearing on Murong Liyue's originally fair cheeks. Although it was not very obvious, it was so close that Bai Yu could not see it.

Murong Liyue propped herself up against Bai Yu's chest, her voice unusually trembling.

"I...I have to go!"

After saying that, Murong Liyue hurriedly ran out.

Bai Yu, on the other hand, was completely different. Nothing was going to happen, and both Murong Liyue and Bai Yu knew it was an accident.

But the two knew it was an accident, and if outsiders saw it, the accident would really become a misunderstanding!

This is not a good sign, at least not for Bai Yu.

After all, he was a little worried that this misunderstanding might cause some negative psychological changes in Murong Liyue, and he hoped it wouldn't be as he thought!

P.S.: Could you please give me some monthly passes?

Chapter Twenty-Two: Comprehension Skills Need Improvement (Second Update)

After changing back into my own clothes, I walked out of the room where the club was located. There was no one outside, and it was unusually quiet.

Looking up at the railing of the corridor, it was still drizzling outside.

Just as Bai Yu turned to leave, she saw someone at the end of the corridor looking at her from behind a white pillar.

I looked down and rubbed my eyes, but when I looked again, there was nothing there.

Whether it was a misperception or not, for a fleeting moment, Bai Yu did indeed feel as if she were being spied on.

And that feeling was somewhat familiar, as if I had experienced it before.

After much thought, Bai Yu still couldn't figure out why this feeling of being spied on felt so familiar.

Bai Yu never dwells on problems he can't figure out, because there's no need to waste his brainpower and time; he prefers to let things take their natural course.

As Bai Yu turned and walked towards the end of the corridor, preparing to go downstairs, he subconsciously glanced at the pillar not far away, but there was no one there.

At this point, Bai Yu could only conclude that she was overthinking things. Perhaps she had developed some kind of paranoia after being stabbed with a machete. After all, she really had been stabbed.

Just as Bai Yu left, a graceful figure emerged from the stairs he was descending.
