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

Perhaps it was the change in her personality after being hit by the woodcutter's knife, or perhaps it was because she had been pretending to be aloof for too long and had become accustomed to it. In any case, just thinking about Xiao Baiyu, who was always putting on an act, made her feel tired.

When Bai Yu returned with a bowl of rice, she saw that her dipping sauce dish was piled high with meat.

Sit down and look at Li Cheng. Li Cheng smiled but didn't say anything. Look at Wen Chiqi. Wen Chiqi shook his head and didn't say anything. As for Feng Zhou, don't even mention him. After having his eyes removed, he's become a heartless idiot and is currently working hard.

None of the three guys served themselves any food, so it was just Su Rongxue who got to.

Sure enough, when Bai Yu turned to look at Su Rongxue, Su Rongxue pointed her little finger, holding her chopsticks, into the hot pot and whispered.

"Li Cheng and Wen Chiqi ate too fast, and there might not be any left when you came back, so I put some on your plate."

Su Rongxue felt that she had not done anything wrong this time. Although her voice still gave people a sense of weakness, she was very confident.

After all, she had seen Bai Yu fighting with Li Cheng and the other two for meat the whole time, so it was impossible for her to make a mistake by serving meat to Bai Yu, right?

Su Rongxue is confident, but does Bai Yu need Su Rongxue to be like that?

Of course, there's absolutely no need for that. On the contrary, such behavior can lead to a lot of misunderstandings. Doesn't this girl understand that?

"You eat yours, do you think I don't have hands?"

Good heavens, Su Rongxue never expected to be scolded for doing this, and her aggrieved expression instantly showed.

Su Rongxue might feel wronged but she wouldn't say anything. However, Xia Rong couldn't stand it and was extremely annoyed with Bai Yu, the boy who often scolded Su Rongxue.

"Is it wrong for Su Rongxue to serve you food? Why are you being so fierce? Who does she think she is?"

Xia Rong's words were completely without flaw. Even if Li Cheng and the other two wanted to defend Bai Yu, they couldn't find any loopholes. Class monitor Lu Dawei was even more at a loss for words and didn't dare to put the food he had picked up into his mouth.

Xia Rong's words were perfectly reasonable to Bai Yu, and Su Rongxue was indeed not wrong either, but being kind to Bai Yu was precisely the mistake.

There was no rebuttal, and Bai Yu had no reason to refute it.

However, Su Rongxue thought that Bai Yu's silence meant he was angry, and her little face showed an unusually anxious expression.

She reached out to pull Bai Yu, but then withdrew her hand. She wanted to say something, but felt that Xia Rong's scolding of Bai Yu was her fault, so she couldn't say anything.

The other tables were filled with laughter and playful banter, but Bai Yu's table was unusually different, their atmosphere completely out of place from the start.

After quickly finishing his bowl of rice, Bai Yu got up and left the hot pot restaurant. It wasn't that he wanted to leave, but he knew that staying there would only make Li Cheng and the others feel awkward, like an orphan.

Everyone else thought Bai Yu's comments about Su Rongxue were wrong, but Bai Yu knew that she was just trying to avoid what she could avoid!

There's no need to repeat the mistakes of the past life. Su Rongxue's gentleness and kindness should no longer belong to someone like me, because I'm not qualified, nor do I dare to be qualified!

Chapter 73 Trembling Legs Shouting "No!" (Seeking Votes)

The hot pot restaurant was bustling inside, but it was rather quiet outside, with only a few passersby occasionally walking past the door.

This place is a bit far from Beicheng University, so it's not very lively and the flow of people isn't very large.

But Bai Yu actually thought it was nice to be quiet, and it would be even better if there was a cigarette.

Bai Yu subconsciously touched her pants pocket, and it was only then that she realized she hadn't had the habit of smoking since her rebirth.

"Bai...Bai Yu?"

A slightly timid voice came from behind, and even without turning around, Bai Yu knew that it was Su Rongxue who had come out.

Perhaps a normal girl would have been disgusted by her behavior long ago, and might even have wished she never had to come into contact with someone like her again.

But Su Rongxue is too naive and too gentle. How can there be such a silly girl in this world?

In her previous life, Bai Yu thought Su Rongxue was so easy to fool, and in this life, she is just as hard to make him hate her!

Turning to look at Su Rongxue who came out alone, the girl hadn't made any mistakes, but she was looking down with guilt. Her long silver hair was tied into a braid. No matter what hairstyle she had, Su Rongxue's cuteness always carried it off.

Are you... angry?

Bai Yu's silence made Su Rongxue's voice even softer, filled with more apology than grievance.

"I'm not angry, and you didn't do anything wrong. Go inside and eat your food!"

Although Bai Yu still looked cold and aloof, Su Rongxue reached out her small hand and tugged at Bai Yu's sleeve, asking softly.

"Together?"

"Go in yourself! Don't you think you're angry after I told you?!"

Bai Yu found it strange. He hadn't asked this question before, but now that it was just him and Su Rongxue, he had to ask Su Rongxue why she wasn't angry with him!

"Yes...it was my fault for meddling. I'm so sorry, so sorry..."

Ah, I really can't stand it. Bai Yu felt terrible seeing Su Rongxue like this. Who could bear to see her like this...?

He reached out and grabbed Su Rongxue's small hand. Her hand was small and smooth, but slightly cool, which gave him a particularly comfortable feeling in the hot summer.

Bai Yu wasn't trying to take advantage of Su Rongxue; she was just pulling the girl's hand and making her turn around so she could go inside and eat.

As for Bai Yu himself, he wouldn't go in; going in would only make the already awkward atmosphere even more awkward.

But Su Rongxue didn't care about so much. In the past, she had done many ambiguous things with Bai Yu without thinking they were ambiguous. But at this moment, when Bai Yu grabbed her hand, her body trembled slightly, her face turned red instantly, and she stood there at a loss.

"Go in yourself, don't hold me back!"

Although Bai Yu's tone wasn't fierce, his aloofness, a habit he developed after his rebirth, always gave him a slightly authoritative air.

However, Su Rongxue was more concerned about whether Bai Yusheng was angry at this moment.

Are you... still angry?

"No, I'm not angry!"

Bai Yu was genuinely not angry, nor could he possibly be angry with anyone. He knew that only he could understand what he had done, and no one else would.

But Su Rongxue blushed and mustered her courage, placing her hands in front of her chest and staring into Bai Yu's eyes as she spoke.

"Not angry?"

Perhaps it's true that Bai Yu didn't have any of the advantages of timing, location, or people.

The afterglow of the moonlight fell perfectly on Su Rongxue's petite figure, making her silver hair sparkle like stars, and she really looked like an angel so cute that she had fallen to earth.

"Don't be angry!"

Bai Yu had said "Don't be angry" several times, but this time it carried a tenderness he himself didn't realize.

Perhaps it was the first time Su Rongxue had heard Bai Yu speak in such a gentle tone, and a smile immediately appeared on her small face. She was very cute, but so cute that Bai Yu wanted to run away.

"What are you laughing at? Go inside and eat. Don't you know it's hot outside?"

Bai Yu snapped out of his momentary daze and immediately resumed his cold tone and expression. He didn't want to break his guard, so he waved for Su Rongxue to go inside and eat quickly.

Bai Yu felt she had really lost out on this class reunion dinner; fifty yuan was practically thrown down the drain!

No matter how much he lost, it didn't matter, as long as Su Rongxue disliked him. But instead of being disliked, he almost broke down.

This is absolutely outrageous! Bai Yu thought and thought but still couldn't figure out which part of her approach she had gone wrong that had such a negative effect!

But how could he possibly use the thinking of a normal person to guess Su Rongxue's thoughts?

Moreover, Su Rongxue is that kind of person, and given her misunderstanding of Bai Yu's personality, she would never be angry with him.

It was during this dinner party that Bai Yu felt her image would be significantly lowered by Yi Zitong and Xia Rong in the female circle.

This is actually what Bai Yu wanted to see. In his previous life, Bai Yu was a man who actively fought for multiple mating rights, but in this life, he is a sage who actively gives up mating rights.

At 8:30, everyone took taxis back to school. At 9:00, there will be activities and performances on campus, which are exclusively for the freshmen of Beicheng University.

Upon returning to school, everyone gathered on the playground. Bai Yu didn't interact with anyone along the way because he was the first to take a taxi away.

To everyone else, Bai Yu was a withdrawn, aloof person who, apart from his appearance, seemed to have no redeeming qualities.

Being isolated is terrible, but Bai Yu wouldn't let himself get to that point, because he only needs girls to isolate him. In the boys' circle, Bai Yu isn't that kind of person.

At least those who often hang out together know what Bai Yu's true personality is like: a playful, easygoing person who can take any kind of joke.

She just acts very aloof in public.

Standing on the playground, Bai Yu checked the time on her phone: 8:56. She would go to the restroom and come back around the time the performance started.

With this idea in mind, Bai Yu patted Li Cheng, Wen Chiqi, and Feng Zhou beside her, signaling them to go to the restroom together.

Going to the toilet in pairs is a daily habit; it feels like we only feel safe when we're together.

But when Bai Yu and the others came out of the restroom, he was stopped by a sweet voice.

"Junior Brother Bai Yu, long time no see, what a coincidence!"

Turning to look at the owner of the voice, well, the person who came was none other than Ju Qing, the short-haired, sexy sea queen.

Regarding Bai Yu's daily entanglement with beautiful women, Li Cheng and the other two said they were already used to it, so they didn't say anything more and turned around and walked away as if they knew nothing.

However, they all secretly cursed Bai Yu, thinking that one day he would be trembling and crying out that he couldn't do it!

Chapter 74 She is truly beautiful, but alas... (Bonus chapter, please vote!)

Bai Yu had no idea what Li Cheng and the other two were thinking. As for Ju Qing, who said it had been a long time since they had seen each other after only one day, he simply replied with a faint "yes".

"We just saw each other yesterday, has it been that long?"

He was indeed very aloof, but Ju Qing showed the necessary patience towards this aloof junior.

"We met yesterday, but it was yesterday too. If you think about it, even the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl only meet once a year. We meet every other day. Aren't we more destined than them?"

Good heavens, this is blatant seduction, but for Bai Yu, this retired playboy, these are just small tricks; he only needs to explain it in one sentence.

Are you trying to recruit me into your backup plan group?

Yes, it's a very simple and clear statement. No one would say something like that so bluntly. Even some of Ju Qing's backup suitors wouldn't dare to say it if they knew they were backup suitors. At least, if they did, they wouldn't even have the chance to be backup suitors.

Ju Qing is beautiful and sexy, and her clothes make you want to lift the outer shell and explore the inside hole, but Bai Yu doesn't care, because she has already explored it.

Looking at Bai Yu, who was expressionless, aloof, and exceptionally handsome, Ju Qing was speechless for a moment.

If seducing a guy requires good looks and a little bit of strategy, then Bai Yu will never let you take the usual path, and will even break your legs so you can't walk.

"Junior Brother Bai Yu, what...what do you mean by this?"

"It means exactly what it says!"
