Quick Wear: There is always a female supporting role tearing up the script

Xie Jiashu saw Bai Yanning again on the first day of school at A University. She was helping distribute flyers at the Go Club's recruitment booth.

When she was a freshman, Bai Yanning joined a club for academic credits. Later, her reputation gradually declined and she became a marginal figure in the club. The president would only pull her out to support the club when recruiting new members or holding activities.

She was indeed pretty, and as soon as she stood there, many freshmen would crowd over. Bai Yanning did her best for the credits, patiently answering the freshmen's questions and even forcing a faint smile.

"I really can't stand her look," Ye Xiaoxiao, who was sitting next to the Go Club poster, rolled her eyes in Bai Yanning's direction. "She usually has a blank expression when facing us, but she smiles so happily towards those boys."

"Keep your voice down," President Zou Yue walked up to her without her noticing when, "We still rely on her to recruit people."

Ye Xiaoxiao was very disdainful and even raised her voice, "Those freshmen can just ask around and know who she is. Do I need to tell them?"

Bai Yanning's smile froze for a moment, then quickly recovered. She continued to answer questions from a junior high school girl next to her, as if she hadn't heard anything.

Zou Yue nudged Ye Xiaoxiao with her elbow and said, "Hey, do you know that boy over there?"

"He's been watching you."

Ye Xiaoxiao turned her head and saw a boy wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and gray sweatpants standing behind Bai Yanning on the right, not far away from them. He was holding his schoolbag in one hand and had the other hand in his pocket. He was slightly frayed, with fair skin, broad shoulders and narrow hips, and long legs. He was the kind of handsome guy that could be spotted in a crowd at a glance. His only shortcoming was that his eyes looked a little fierce.

This might be a common problem among handsome guys with single eyelids, and Ye Xiaoxiao didn't think much about it.

But he was really staring at her.

Ye Xiaoxiao's heart moved slightly, and she felt a little shy. She was about to stand up to say hello when she saw the boy take two steps forward, just blocking the sun shining from behind Bai Yanning.

Ye Xiaoxiao's heart sank, and all those charming thoughts disappeared in an instant. "He... he was glaring at me just now, right? Right?"

It was only when the crowd had almost dispersed that Bai Yanning noticed that there was an "acquaintance" standing behind her.

She stood there holding the flyer for more than three hours, talking all the time without drinking a sip of water. Xie Jiashu noticed that her hair on both sides was slightly wet with sweat. The moment she turned around and saw him, there was surprise in her eyes, but she quickly lowered her eyes and stopped looking at him.

Xie Jiashu took out a bottle of water from his schoolbag and handed it to her. Neither of them spoke.

It was the same kind of soda he always bought, orange flavor.

The wind blew, and the leaves above my head swayed slightly and rustled. Even the wind in September was hot and dry, completely different from May.

Bai Yanning reached out to take the bottle of water. The moment she held the bottle, Xie Jiashu felt his hands almost trembling.

She was still willing to take his water, which proved that she didn't actually hate him, right?

He suppressed his excitement and called her, "Senior."

"My name is Xie Jiashu," he said, "Jiamu Shuting, which means 'Jiashu', which means lush grass."

Bai Yanning didn't introduce herself to him as he expected. Instead, she pulled out a flyer for the Go Club from her bosom and said, "Would you like to know more about it, Xie?"

Xie Jiashu continued in a trance.

She turned back to talk to someone else.

In the boys' dormitory at night, everyone was very excited because they had just started college. Seven or eight boys from the next dormitory came to visit and spoke loudly, talking about topics one after another. Someone saw the Go Club flyer on Xie Jiashu's desk and suddenly talked about Bai Yanning.

"That senior... she has a bad reputation." A boy leaned on a stool and said seriously, "She was previously flirting with a rich second-generation kid from the Economics and Management Department and asked him for a lot of money. Her classmates and roommates all said she was a bad person."

Someone asked, “How do you know?”

Another person said, "There's information about her on the campus internet. You can find it easily by searching. Her name is Bai Yanning."

At the beginning, the boy Zhou Honghui said, "You don't even need to search. I passed by the Go club recruiting today and heard her own club members complaining about her."

Someone had already browsed the campus network on their phone and said, "It's true! This senior is quite famous."

"Notorious," Zhou Honghui said with disdain. "Gold-diggers like these only have a pure face, but they'll do anything for money. I've seen plenty of them."

“…What are you doing!?”

Xie Jiashu, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly stood up and punched him in the face. He had practiced Taekwondo and dodged in a hurry, but Xie Jiashu was not a pushover either. He dodged in front of him again, kicked him on the knee, and punched him hard in the stomach.

The dormitory was in chaos.

The next day, at the freshman meeting, Xie Jiashu and Zhou Honghui, who had a bruised face and nose, both went on stage to make self-criticisms.

Fighting on the first day of school had a very bad impact, and Xie Jiashu's name also became popular on the campus website.

Everyone was guessing why they fought.

An eyewitness said: "I don't know. We were chatting peacefully when Xie Jiashu suddenly stood up and hit someone. It was terrifying."

"What are you talking about? Are you talking about something that offended him?"

"We were just talking about the new recruit for the Go club, the pretty one..."

"...Bai Yanning?"

There were a lot of speculations online, and many people concluded that this was Bai Yanning's loyal bootlicker.

Xie Jiashu proved their guess with practical actions.

Someone posted a photo of him and Bai Yanning. He walked two or three steps behind her, and sometimes they walked side by side with half an arm's length between them. He accompanied Bai Yanning to class, to eat, and to the library. Along the way, enthusiastic netizens took secret photos and updated the updates in real time.

At night, Bai Yanning packed up and walked out of the library. Xie Jiashu hurriedly followed her. She lowered her head and walked all the way to the grove behind the teaching building. There was only one light in the distance, and it was always a holy place for couples to meet. Bai Yanning stopped under a streetlight, turned around and said to Xie Jiashu, "Don't follow me anymore."

Her hair fluttered in the light, her eyes were cold and indifferent, and her tone was flat, with no emotion to be heard.

Xie Jiashu gripped the shoulder strap of his schoolbag tightly. His throat twitched twice, and he said, "I won't."

"Even if you hate me, I will follow you."

When he followed her, those people no longer dared to discuss her openly in front of her. After all, he was tall and had a stern face, which made him very intimidating. Moreover, he was famous for his fight with Zhou Honghui, so no one would easily mess with him.

In just two days, he understood how they treated Bai Yanning.

Those people were full of malice towards her because she did not refute or resist. They liked to talk about her around her in a voice that seemed like a whisper but was actually loud enough for her and the people around her to hear.

He remembered her in the convenience store, staring out the window in a daze, her eyes dull, yet always seemed filled with sorrow.

He knew she was unhappy, but he didn't know she was so unhappy.

He looked at her and his heart almost broke.

Bai Yanning looked at him deeply, and after a long while she said, "Nothing good will happen if you and I walk together."

It won't be long before they isolate you as they isolated me, and talk about you as they talk about me.

Xie Jiashu knew what she was worried about, and he said in a rush of emotion, "I like you."

He immediately regretted it after saying it. He was too impulsive. What would she think of him? Would she think he was forcing himself on her?

He hurriedly added, "I'm very happy just to be with you. I...I don't have any other intentions."

"Please, let me stay with you."

Bai Yanning didn't say anything else. The wind blew up her skirt. She held the book tightly in her arms and turned to walk towards the dormitory.

Xie Jiashu hurriedly followed and asked cautiously, "You agree, right? Right? ... I took it as your consent."

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Bai Yanning was walking in front, and she couldn't help but wonder, how could there be such stupid people in the world?
