Quick Wear: Why did the male protagonist fall in love with the vicious villain again?

It was getting dark.

Bai Chao returned to his dormitory.

He put down the heavy finance book in his hand, only to find that there seemed to be some light on the balcony.

Stepping onto the balcony, I looked to the side and realized that the light from the next room had spilled onto my balcony.

Bai Chao tiptoed to the edge of the balcony, held onto the railing with both hands, stood on tiptoe, and leaned forward, as if trying to see what the people next door were doing.

However, the balconies on both sides were still some distance apart, and no matter how much Bai Chao craned his neck, he couldn't see the people in the next room.

Bai Chao straightened up, gave a disgruntled snort, and turned to go into his room.

"..."

Xie Shubai slowly withdrew his gaze, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the silver pocket watch in his hand.

There was a click.

The pocket watch, which had stopped ticking, started ticking again.

Xie Shubai sat behind a half-curtain by the balcony door, repairing his pocket watch, so he turned on an extra desk lamp.

Because of the angle, Bai Chao couldn't see Xie Shubo, but Xie Shubo could see him from his position.

Xie Shubai put away the pocket watch, and then remembered how Bai Chao had peeked out earlier.

"..."

It looks just like a squirrel.

It looks even more like a puffed-up face now.

……

There was another music appreciation class the next day.

The teacher is guiding everyone to appreciate various styles of musical melodies.

Different melodies flowed from the phonograph.

Bai Chao forced himself to listen to the music.

But the melody grew longer and longer, like a lullaby, making him want to doze off.

Seeing Bai Chao nodding lower and lower, Xie Shubai, who was sitting next to him, reached out and supported Bai Chao's forehead before his head hit the table.

Bai Chao jolted awake, sat up abruptly, moved to the side, and glared at Xie Shubai.

You can sit anywhere in the music classroom, and Bai Chao sat in a seat against the wall.

But Xie Shubai, for some reason, declined the invitation and sat down next to Bai Chao.

Bai Chao wanted to change seats, but the teacher had already come in and was about to start class, so he couldn't move and had to sit back down in his seat, feeling annoyed.

Xie Shubai withdrew his hand without changing his expression.

His gaze subtly fell on the dark circles under Bai Chao's eyes.

Last night, the lights in this person's room were turned off very late.

I don't know what I'm doing, staying up so late.

Bai Chao listened to music for a while longer, but he was still clearly listless, and his face began to look tired again.

After the last melody ended, the teacher began asking questions.

What can you feel from this piece of music?

"Sunlight."

"The garden in the early morning!"

"A spring outing?"

The teacher looked at Bai Chao: "What do you think, Xu?"

Bai Chao was a bit slow to react, speaking hesitantly: "Pillow?"

The classroom fell silent for a moment, then erupted in laughter again.

"Hahahahaha."

"Does Xu want to sleep with a pillow?"

Bai Chao seemed to realize he had said something wrong, and his face turned bright red.

The teacher smiled and helped to smooth things over, saying, "Does Xu find this melody so soothing that she wants to lie down on her pillow?"

Bai Chao nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes..."

The teacher didn't stop at the question-and-answer session; instead, she began to explain the emotional nuances of music by different masters.

When Bai Chao looked up, he caught a glimpse of the lingering smile on Xie Shubai's lips, and his expression turned cold again.

He looked away, treating the people next to him as if they were invisible.

After the class ended, Bai Chao was the first to stand up, looking at Xie Shubai with a stern face.

"Please give way."

Xie Shubai glanced at Bai Chao and actually stepped aside.

However, the space on both sides was narrow, making it somewhat crowded for Bai Chao to get out.

"..."

Bai Chao simply stepped over Xie Shubai's leg and walked out of the classroom without looking back.

Just as Bai Chao walked into the corridor, Qi Yongning also came out to catch up.

"Hey, Xu, when did you become so close to Xie?"

"Not familiar with him." Bai Chao's tone was somewhat cold and hard.

"Oh? I saw him sit next to you today, I thought..."

"You're overthinking it. He probably just picked a seat randomly."

"is it?"

Bai Chao couldn't hide his jealousy: "He's a young master from a prestigious family, can't he just sit wherever he wants?"

"makes sense."

Qi Yongning nodded and asked curiously, "Xu, you're sitting next to Xie, what do you think of Xie?"

Bai Chao blurted out, "Not very good."

Qi Yongning exclaimed in surprise, "That's the young master of the Xie family, Xu, you..."

Bai Chao paused, then tried to explain himself: "I meant he wasn't very good at giving up his seat. He could have stood up and let me out, but he arrogantly sat there and only made a little room for me. I had to step out and almost tripped."

Qi Yongning smiled and said, "Maybe he's just used to being pampered and isn't used to giving up his seat for others. Don't worry about it."

"Look, someone is even helping him carry the books."

Bai Chao turned around and saw Xie Shubai being fawned over by his classmates.

Qi Yongning sighed, "If I had Xie's family background, I would have been able to walk around the school with my head held high long ago, but unfortunately..."

"..."

Bai Chao's expression darkened further.
