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

"Then let's sit here, I'll go order!"

Bai Yu acted entirely on her own initiative.

However, Su Rongxue is indeed the kind of girl with very weak opinions, and Bai Yu's behavior can easily lead her astray.

When Su Rongxue was told to sit here and wait, she actually sat there obediently and waited.

Was this meal paid for by Bai Yu? That's impossible; you could call Bai Yu a real tightwad.

The main reason is that in this life, there's no way I'd take the initiative to invite a girl, let alone invite my four ex-girlfriends. That's not a good habit, unless it's to return a favor.

After ordering the food, Bai Yu also bought two bottles of drinks, which was his treat, since Su Rongxue had treated him to milk tea before!

"promise."

Bai Yu handed a can of chilled cola to Su Rongxue, who quickly waved her hand, refusing it apologetically.

"Thank you, but no need."

"Here, have a sip, it's delicious!"

Bai Yu felt that if Su Rongxue refused his invitation, then he would have to invite her again next time.

Let alone Bai Yukou, he had to calculate and plan carefully with his four ex-girlfriends; every wrong step could be very dangerous.

In his previous life, he wasn't this kind of person; treating girls to meals was a regular occurrence for him.

Su Rongxue reached out and took the Coke Bai Yu handed her, opened it, and took a small sip.

But even a small sip made the girl frown, it seems she really can't get used to soda.

The dishes were served shortly afterward. Bai Yu had ordered all the dishes she liked. As for what Su Rongxue liked to eat, Bai Yu actually knew.

But if he doesn't order, what can he do?

Bai Yu was actually hoping that Su Rongxue's affection for him would drop quickly. Recently, the girl hadn't had much contact with him, which might mean that her feelings were starting to take effect.

As soon as the dishes were served, Bai Yu didn't stand on ceremony with Su Rongxue and started eating right away, and she ate very quickly.

Su Rongxue eats very gently, taking small bites and chewing slowly, which shows that she has developed good habits.

The two sat facing each other, both appearing very quiet, as if their initial purpose in coming here was simply to have a meal.

However, while Bai Yu was engrossed in eating, Su Rongxue was secretly observing him.

From beginning to end, Su Rongxue never forgot her purpose: to give away that one apple.

Gently putting down her chopsticks, Su Rongxue opened the small bag she had placed on her lap, inside which was a beautifully packaged apple.

These exquisitely packaged apples were specially sent by Su Rongxue's mother. There were only two in total, one for herself and one for her best friend. One was given to Xia Rong, and the other to Bai Yu.

This leads to the question: why is Bai Yu considered the best friend?

According to Su Rongxue, if she treats Bai Yu as her best friend, then Bai Yu will definitely treat her as her best friend in return, and gradually she will stop being mean to her.

To put it bluntly, Su Rongxue hoped that Bai Yu wouldn't be so fierce. She was still a little scared and sincerely hoped that Bai Yu could make more friends and be more cheerful.

Although Su Rongxue never said these words, she naturally couldn't bring herself to say them.

Taking out the exquisitely packaged apple, Su Rongxue, whose hands were a bit small, held it with both hands and presented it to Bai Yu, saying somewhat nervously.

"White rain, peace... safety..."

As she was talking, Su Rongxue noticed that Bai Yu was looking up at her, and she instantly forgot what she had prepared to say because of nervousness.

Bai Yu frowned slightly, looking at Su Rongxue. It was clear she was waiting for the girl to finish speaking, but what she got in the end was Su Rongxue's slightly flushed face and a...

"I...forgot."

P.S.: [On Qixi Festival, I hope everyone has their other half by their side. I'll just stick to writing. And by the way, could you please give me some monthly votes? Thanks!]

Chapter 103 Apples on Christmas Eve

You could say Su Rongxue is cute, she really is. She can forget what she thought she had to say just because she's nervous.

Bai Yu just stared at Su Rongxue without saying a word, which only made the girl more and more nervous.

Her outstretched hands slowly retracted, and she clutched the hem of her clothes, lowering her cute little face.

What is this?

Seeing Su Rongxue's timid and hesitant demeanor, Bai Yu still asked the question knowingly, giving Su Rongxue a way to ease her tension.

However, this was indeed a good way out for Su Rongxue, who immediately raised her head to explain to Bai Yu.

"This is the apple I'm giving you for Christmas Eve."

Fearing she might forget her lines again or be too nervous to know what to say, Su Rongxue recited her lover's words in one breath without any hesitation.

This was quite unusual for Su Rongxue, who usually choked up when speaking to Bai Yu.

"Oh, I..."

Bai Yu's first reaction to receiving an apple for Christmas Eve, which was also the expected reaction, was to refuse.

However, before he could even speak, he saw Su Rongxue suddenly stand up, her face flushed, looking up at Bai Yu with misty eyes and calling out.

"No...don't reject me..."

As soon as she said this, all the passersby looked at her with curiosity and doubt.

Not to mention that many of these people were completely bewildered, even Bai Yu was completely bewildered.

Why is this girl shouting so loudly? Is she afraid she can't hear herself?

And that's not the point. The point is that this girl's words can easily cause misunderstandings, okay?

What do you mean, "Don't refuse"?

A man and a woman, the woman looked nervous and shy, it looked like she was confessing her feelings and didn't want to be rejected, right?

Looking up at Su Rongxue, who was also looking at Bai Yu, Bai Yu's gaze lasted only three seconds before Su Rongxue looked away, whether out of shyness or nervousness.

"Confess your feelings?"

"Isn't it a confession?"

"It's definitely a confession!"

"This girl is so cute."

A constant stream of voices rang out from the side, leaving Bai Yu speechless. Sure enough, everyone would misunderstand like that.

Su Rongxue wasn't oblivious to these comments. She simply didn't want Bai Yu to reject her, yet these people were saying she was confessing her feelings.

This girl was already shy, and with the whispers around her, she couldn't stand still for even ten seconds.

Clutching her bag in her small hands, she sat down again, head bowed, apologizing to Bai Yu with a pitiful expression.

"sorry."

To be honest, Su Rongxue did nothing wrong and didn't even need to feel sorry.

But it's just that this girl, she should use her brain more. How could she not be misunderstood if she said something like that?

"Sigh, let's eat. Go back and rest early. You have a full afternoon of classes, so don't fall asleep!"

Bai Yu didn't refuse the girl's apples again, but she didn't say she would take them either. She simply put the packaged apples aside.

For the thick-skinned Bai Yu, the previous farce did not cause any disturbance to Ganfan; Ganfan remained Ganfan as before.

However, it was different for Su Rongxue; the previous misunderstanding still bothered her.

Looking around, Su Rongxue, who was already easy to attract attention and curious gazes, attracted even more people to look at her after her earlier shout.

For Su Rongxue, the constant stares from those people made her feel even more embarrassed and awkward.

It was originally a misunderstanding, but as more people saw her, the girl couldn't help but wonder if Bai Yu would agree to it if she really confessed.

For Su Rongxue, romance was a completely new field, and just thinking about it made her blush.

Raising her little face, Su Rongxue secretly observed Bai Yu eating. Because of this farce, Su Rongxue had lost her appetite.

Bai Yu eats very quickly, and when he saw that Su Rongxue hadn't even touched her chopsticks after he finished a bowl of rice, he was a little puzzled.

Was it because the food she ordered was too bad, or did it not suit Su Rongxue's taste?

Why aren't you eating?

Bai Yu looked up and asked this question so calmly.

But these words startled Su Rongxue, who was lost in thought.

"No...no, that's not true..."

???

Bai Yu was stunned by these inexplicable words. What? There's no such thing?

"what?"

Frowning slightly, Bai Yu noticed that Su Rongxue's face was not only a little red, but her ears were also red. Was this girl so thin-skinned?

"No...it's nothing."

"I'm full, I'm going back now."

With that, Bai Yu got up to leave.

Su Rongxue, who had no appetite, immediately got up and wanted to follow Bai Yu as soon as she saw her leaving.

However, Bai Yu forgot to take the apple when she left.

Seeing this, Su Rongxue quickly picked up the apple, tugged at Bai Yu's sleeve, and handed the beautifully packaged apple to Bai Yu.

"Give."

For Bai Yu, not taking the apple was intentional. To put it nicely, he was careless; to put it bluntly, he didn't appreciate Su Rongxue's kindness.

Of course, Bai Yu was thinking a lot, but Su Rongxue wasn't thinking that much, and she didn't know that Bai Yu was deliberately lowering her favorability. She just thought that Bai Yu had forgotten to take it.

After glancing at Su Rongxue's face, Bai Yu took the apple and left without saying a word.

Upon seeing this, Su Rongxue quickly followed.
