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

Naturally, Qing Siling sat down next to Bai Yu.

Perhaps it was because Qing Siling introduced Bai Yu to Qing Sisi that this guy is now able to wear men's clothing to class, instead of the kind of women's clothing that makes it easy for people to not know his sexual orientation.

However, even in men's clothing, Qing Siling's effeminate temperament could not be hidden; she didn't look like a man at all.

What's most damning is that this guy's voice and appearance are completely those of a woman.

"Brother Bai Yu, has my sister Qing Sisi been looking for you to play lately?"

Looking at Qing Siling's... ridiculously beautiful appearance, Bai Yu really wanted to crush his balls. Besides, the way she called him "brother" had a unique charm.

"Damn it, I, Bai Yu, dislike women the most, especially women like your sister, and yet you insist on introducing her to someone? What the hell is this?"

Bai Yu's words were truly spoken in anger, and she was incredibly angry. She and Qing Sisi had never had anything to do with each other before, but because of this guy Qing Siling, her plans were completely disrupted.

But when Qing Siling heard that Bai Yu disliked women the most, her face turned red and she blinked shyly.

You wouldn't...

"I...you son of a bitch, be normal!"

After saying this, Bai Yu lay down and started to sleep. As for Qing Siling next to him, he figured out that out of sight, out of mind.

After the two long classes in the morning, it will be lunchtime. There are no classes in the afternoon, so Bai Yu and her roommates will definitely go online after lunch; there's no need to think about that.

Besides, today is Friday, there's no evening self-study, and tomorrow is a holiday. It's precisely because there's no evening self-study that Su Rongxue's department head, the head of the arts department, said they were going to have dinner together today.

However, after having lunch, Bai Yu went online and forgot about her promise to Su Rongxue.

Su Rongxue had told Bai Yu at noon that they would meet at the school gate at 6 p.m., but this guy was still in the internet cafe when the time came.

Su Rongxue, who was waiting for Bai Yu at the school gate, looked at the time and realized that it was already six o'clock, but Bai Yu had not arrived yet, so she looked a little puzzled.

However, this girl is really gentle and naive. She actually thought that Bai Yu should be packing in the dormitory and would arrive in a while.

As a result, standing at the school gate, he was stared at by countless people coming and going from the school, and after ten minutes, Bai Yu still hadn't arrived.

However, Su Rongxue did see a stunningly beautiful woman with long blue hair along the way. She was wearing a gray-black trench coat and looked even more aloof than Bai Yu.

Even Su Rongxue couldn't help but take a second look.

As a result, it wasn't until 6 o'clock had passed in the internet cafe that Bai Yu remembered her promise to Su Rongxue.

I picked up my phone, thinking Su Rongxue must be urging me, but I found there were no messages at all, only text messages with game recruitment ads and other such trash.

"Sons, you guys play first. If you want to stay up all night, just call me. I have to slip away now because I have something to do."

With that, Bai Yu got off the plane.

When Li Cheng and the other two saw Bai Yu leave so suddenly, they all expressed their doubts.

"Why aren't you playing games anymore?"

"**?"

"The pillboxes outside the school are most expensive on weekends. If you're going to have sex, don't go at that time. Wouldn't Monday or Thursday be better?"

Listening to the three guys' nonsense, Bai Yu was both amused and exasperated, and gave them a very polite greeting.

"Fuck your mother!"

Bai Yu is usually quite polite to such vulgar language, but the people in the dormitory really let loose completely, saying whatever they want without any restraint, and everyone knows it's just a joke.

The best relationships are probably no better than this: you both understand the true meaning of everything you say, whether it's a curse or a polite remark, and you won't cause any conflict.

Stepping out of the internet cafe, which was still relatively warm inside, a gust of cold wind swept through, and Bai Yu immediately had to put on the coat she was holding.

Although it hasn't reached its coldest time yet, it's almost here. If it snows, then this semester will be almost over.

After crossing the road, Bai Yu saw the silver-haired figure standing at the school gate in the distance.

The way he kept glancing at the school and then dodging pedestrians was both adorable and helpless.

However, Bai Yu felt a little embarrassed after seeing this scene. After all, punctuality is the most basic principle of being a person. No matter how thick-skinned he was, Bai Yu felt that he had been too careless this time.

"Su Rongxue, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

Because of her own mistake, Bai Yu's words were no longer aloof, but instead carried a hint of gentleness.

Su Rongxue was startled when she heard Bai Yu's voice behind her. She had assumed that Bai Yu would definitely come out of the school, but she suddenly appeared behind her.

However, Su Rongxue did not show any displeasure at Bai Yu's arrival, who was more than twenty minutes late. Instead, she politely waved to Bai Yu and said...

"No...it's nothing, I'm the one who's bothering you."

"Shall we leave now? I wonder if we'll still make it in time?"

"Yes, I'll make it. I left an hour early, and there's still more than half an hour until seven o'clock."

Su Rongxue took out her phone and showed Bai Yu the time, but Bai Yu was more interested in the cartoon cover on the girl's phone.

And you know what? These cartoon animals really suit this girl's personality—pure and untouched by worldly affairs. Chapter 132 Are they friends? (Bonus Chapter)

We'll be arriving at Su Rongxue's club dinner in half an hour.

Su Rongxue and Bai Yu had just gotten into the taxi they had called.

Perhaps because she was in a hurry, Su Rongxue took private cars, which would be faster and avoid many detours.

However, this made Bai Yi even more embarrassed. After all, if it weren't for his lateness, Su Rongxue wouldn't have taken a more expensive private car just to save time, right?

"Is it really too late?"

Feeling guilty, Bai Yu spoke less assertively than usual this time, and instead became somewhat gentle.

But this felt very strange to Su Rongxue. It wasn't that Bai Yu, who was a little gentler, was bad, but she felt flattered.

"There's still time, no... don't worry."

Bai Yu and Su Rongxue both sat in the back of the car, a very spacious seat, yet they maintained the furthest distance between them.

One leaned against the left window, and the other against the right window. Bai Yu deliberately maintained a distance, while Su Rongxue was embarrassed to sit too close.

Ever since Bai Yu said he would pretend to be her girlfriend, Su Rongxue felt embarrassed whenever she got close to him.

Su Rongxue hadn't seriously considered that feeling.

The Arts and Literature Department is, after all, a school club. Even when everyone goes out for a meal together, they don't choose places that are too far away; it's only a ten-minute drive.

However, when Bai Yu arrived at her destination, she found that she had come to the same hotel that she and Murong Liyue had been to.

Goodness, to put it in Bai Yu's words, it's just a group of people going out for a meal. But spending money near a hotel inevitably makes people think of things we all know, right?

However, the place where they ate was a hot pot restaurant, and it seemed to be doing quite well, unaffected by the fact that there was a hotel next door.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the hot pot restaurant, Bai Yu looked up and saw a short-haired boy wearing black-rimmed glasses and trendy clothes standing there, smiling as he walked towards them.

"Su Rongxue, you've finally arrived! Everyone's been waiting for you!"

Just as Zhang Caiming finished speaking and was about to reach out to touch Su Rongxue, he noticed Bai Yu standing next to her. He had actually overlooked her at first.

After all, according to the information he received, Su Rongxue's friends were all girls, and it was impossible for her to have a boyfriend. So why did she suddenly bring a man with her?

Zhang Caiming quickly glanced at Bai Yu from head to toe. Although the boy in front of him was dressed very plainly, he was very handsome, which gave Zhang Caiming a bad feeling.

However, he maintained his smile and asked Su Rongxue very politely.

"Su Rongxue, who is this...?"

"I'm Su Rongxue's friend. I'm just here to have a meal with her. You're all in the same department, right?"

Bai Yu could clearly notice that Zhang Caiming's smile, which had been so natural when he looked at Su Rongxue, became slightly stiff the moment he faced her.

Without much analysis, Bai Yu could easily tell that the bespectacled man liked Su Rongxue, otherwise he wouldn't have shown such an unnatural expression.

However, Bai Yu clarified the relationship between herself and Su Rongxue with a single sentence, thus avoiding being driven to hate by love.

"Oh, so you're Su Rongxue's friend. I'm the head of the Literature and Art Department. If you're Su Rongxue's friend, then you must be my friend, Zhang Caiming. May I ask your surname?"

"Just call me Bai Yu, there's no need for fancy surnames."

On the surface, the two were very polite, but what they were really thinking was hard to say.

Only Su Rongxue, ever since she met Zhang Caiming, obediently followed behind Bai Yu without saying a word, giving the impression that Bai Yu made all the decisions.

Pushing open the glass door and stepping into the hot pot restaurant, the slightly chilly temperature outside vanished as soon as I entered.

As expected of a hot pot restaurant, the temperature here is worlds apart from the outside.

"Please sit down, Su Rongxue. You can sit here. We're all friends from the same club. Brother Bai Yu, please don't be shy. You can sit anywhere. We're all family."

As he said this, Zhang Caiming sat down next to the spot he had just pointed to. Although it wasn't the same chair, they were next to each other.

This scene is truly impressive; they really know how to strike first.

Saying that Bai Yu shouldn't be polite and should just find a seat was just a way to get him out of the way.

However, Bai Yu saw through this matter but didn't say anything, and whether or not Su Rongxue sat down was up to her.

Turning to look at Su Rongxue, before Bai Yu could even speak, the girl tugged at Bai Yu's sleeve and asked in a weak voice.

Shall we sit together?

Although it was phrased as a question, Bai Yu knew that this was a sign that Su Rongxue was somewhat unwilling.

Su Rongxue is really weak when it comes to having her own opinions. If Bai Yu says, "Just sit here," Su Rongxue will obediently sit down even if she's not really willing. That's why Bai Yu says this girl is very obedient.

However, ever since Bai Yu learned that Su Rongxue didn't have romantic feelings for him, he stopped behaving so badly, at least not to this extent.

"Let's go sit over there, there are two seats right next to each other."

As she said this, Bai Yu took the lead and walked towards another table. Su Rongxue tugged at Bai Yu's clothes like a cute little kitten, following Bai Yu's every step.

This scene made Zhang Caiming feel uncomfortable, as if something was stuck in his heart, but he still maintained a smile on his face.

"Sure, sit anywhere, it doesn't matter where you sit. These tables are all occupied by people from our arts and culture department."

As he said this, Zhang Caiming's smile immediately vanished when he lowered his head. After all, who could feel good when the girl he had a crush on was with another boy and seemed to be in a very ambiguous relationship?

It can't be said that Zhang Caiming developed hatred for Bai Yu so quickly, but he was definitely not very happy with Bai Yu.

Bai Yu knew all of this, after all, he saw through Zhang Caiming's secret crush on Su Rongxue at a glance, so how could he not know what effect Su Rongxue's docile attitude towards him would have?

However, Bai Yu could barely remain calm even when Si Yu was about to raise his knife to stab someone, so this kind of thing was nothing to him.

Moreover, in terms of social standing or physical appearance, Bai Yu didn't think Zhang Caiming was a good match for Su Rongxue; at least, that's what he thought.
