When Su Bai slept alone on that big bed that night, he inexplicably felt that the bed was too wide, and the emptiness made him feel a little suffocated. He had thought that the bed was so small when Hua Gengchen was there that it was difficult to even turn over. Could it be that the difference was so big when there was one less person?

Su Bai couldn't figure it out! He was so engrossed in thinking about it that he suffered from insomnia, finally drifting off to sleep around two or three in the morning. After managing to sleep for three or four hours, Su Bai felt a void in his heart, like the empty half of his bed.

Frustrated, Su Bai sat up in bed, ruffled his hair haphazardly, and asked himself, "Su Bai, what's wrong with you? Didn't you decide to never believe in love again? Remember! You came back for revenge, to live a better life, not to go down the same path as in your previous life!"

After silently warning himself, Su Bai felt a little less agitated. He probably had offended the God of Love at some point, so he was destined to be forever barred from love. Once he found love, nothing else would be perfect. Glancing at the empty half of the bed, Su Bai murmured, "If only I had met Hua Gengchen in my previous life. In this life... he and Hua Gengchen were both a step too late."

He patted his cheeks lightly twice to cheer himself up. He needed to adjust his mood before Hua Gengchen returned. He still preferred the respectful relationship he had with Hua Gengchen before.

After breakfast, Su Bai went straight to the greenhouse in the villa. He wanted to hurry up and finish cleaning up the remaining greenhouses. However, he didn't plan to dig them himself. He had already ordered a special hoeing machine online, which would be delivered today. He used the money that Su Chengjun and Su Mo had given him as compensation.

Hua Jueming continued to stay by Su Bai's side as always, helping his master guard against anyone who wanted to steal his wife, with Wang Ming being the most important among them!

In fact, Hua Jueming had a question in his mind that he couldn't figure out: his master was so perfect, and he had always been by his wife's side, so why didn't Wang Ming back down at all?

Whether in front of Hua Gengchen or in front of him, her way of getting along with Su Bai never changed from beginning to end.

Could it be that Wang Ming has never taken his master seriously?

The idea was immediately rejected by Hua Jueming; it was absolutely impossible!

"Let's go to the appointment together tonight!" After finishing their business, Wang Ming brought up the idea he had been thinking about all day. His senior brother was someone who didn't follow the rules, so he felt more at ease.

Without hesitation, Su Bai agreed, "Okay!" He picked up his phone and checked the time; it was already four o'clock. "Then I'll go back, take a shower, and change my clothes. I'll come pick you up later."

"Okay." The hoeing machine that Su Bai bought arrived today, and Wang Ming couldn't resist his curiosity and went to take a look. Now he's covered in mud. He had dreamed of buying such a machine for his grandparents to hoe the fields since he was a child, but before he grew up, his grandparents passed away, and the land in the countryside was rented out, so no one needed it anymore.

The two of them organized all the documents together and then agreed to meet in half an hour.

On the way back to the Hua family home, Hua Jueming couldn't help but speak up, "Madam, I need to take care of some business at the shop later." He really couldn't go with Su Bai.

"Then go ahead! Just have the driver take me there." Su Bai said without thinking. Getting the shop in hand as soon as possible was also very important. Apart from Hua Jueming, Su Bai didn't trust anyone else.

“But…” Hua Jueming hesitated. His master had instructed him to protect the lady properly. How could he protect her if he didn’t go? It was alright if Su Bai was at home, since there was a restriction set up by Hua Gengchen. But outside… Hua Jueming was really worried!

Noticing Hua Jueming's hesitation, Su Bai smiled and said, "It's alright, I'm just going with Wang Ming to see his senior brother."

"I know," Hua Jueming said sheepishly, inwardly screaming: He's even more worried about going with Wang Ming! Wang Ming is even more dangerous than the demons!

He must remember to give the driver a good talking-to later, making sure he keeps a close eye on Wang Ming and absolutely prevents him from doing anything inappropriate to the madam. With their master away, guarding the courtyard walls is what they, as subordinates, should do.

After much deliberation, Hua Jueming still felt uneasy about entrusting this important task to the driver, so he decided to set off with Su Bai and the others. He would take a taxi to run his business once they arrived at B University, and then rush back as soon as he finished.

When Wang Ming came out of the villa, he saw Hua Jueming sitting in the passenger seat. He blinked blankly for a moment, and only got into the car after Su Bai called him.

Why is he going too?

He never found a chance to prove whether he was dreaming that night. He also searched online, and while it wasn't uncommon for people to dream of themselves acting drunk and kissing someone they hadn't known for long, the specific meanings were varied. Some said it was because they had been thinking about something during the day, others said it was a premonition of an old grudge meeting, still others said it was because they had a complicated relationship in a past life, which explained their instant connection in this life, and some even more outrageous ones said it was proof that they were destined to be together, tied together by the God of Love.

Wang Ming originally wanted to find a master to interpret his dream, but unfortunately, the masters' fees were too high, and there were many scammers online, so Wang Ming didn't dare to trust them. Therefore, he kept this question to himself. He had been trying his best to avoid Hua Jueming, but because he was cooperating with Su Bai, he couldn't help but meet with Hua Jueming from time to time.

But this time was different. He hadn't heard beforehand that Hua Jueming was going, so he wasn't mentally prepared. When he suddenly saw him, he felt a little scared.

I'm afraid I'm not behaving normally enough!

However, Hua Jueming is the Hua family's butler, and Su Bai is the Hua family's wife. It doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with the butler following the wife. Hasn't he gotten used to it by now?

Wang Ming still felt it was a bit strange that Hua Jueming had come with them this time, because Hua Jueming kept glancing at him in the rearview mirror from time to time, making Wang Ming very uncomfortable.

I'm afraid of revealing anything amiss that might arouse Hua Jueming's suspicion.

The brown bear spirit, the driver, had been secretly observing Wang Ming ever since he got into the car. When Hua Jueming said that he wanted to steal his master's girlfriend, the brown bear spirit's first reaction was disbelief, but he couldn't help but be wary, just in case it was true.

But after meeting the person, he realized that Hua Jueming had been overthinking everything!

With Wang Ming's small frame, he would tremble at the slightest fright, and his wife would definitely not approve of him.

It's a mystery how the usually perceptive butler Hua could have concluded that Wang Ming harbored ill intentions towards the madam.

The brown bear spirit then observed carefully and discovered that Hua Jueming had spent more time and time looking at Wang Ming than anyone else along the way! Although Hua Jueming was convinced that it was fine for Wang Ming to look at Wang Ming more often if he wanted to steal her away, he still felt that something was wrong.

Furthermore, Wang Ming's reaction to Hua Jueming's peeping was also quite strange, as if... there was something awkward about it and something he couldn't quite explain.

About forty minutes later, the car stopped at the back gate of B University. Su Bai and Wang Ming got out of the car and prepared to walk through the snack street to find Fu Fei.

Hua Jueming glanced at the bustling, dirty street lined with stalls and frowned involuntarily. "Madam, how about I call and book a five-star hotel?" This place doesn't seem like a proper place to discuss business.

"No, thank you," Su Bai waved his hand. This place was booked by Fu Fei, and he was already here. It wouldn't be good to suggest changing the location now! "I haven't eaten at the back gate of the school in a long time, and I really miss it."

He was reborn after graduating and was soon taken back to the Su family. It had been almost ten years since he had eaten anything from the back gate of the school. The stalls at the back gate had the most variety and best selection of food that Su Bai had ever seen, and most of them were delicious and inexpensive, things he hadn't eaten since graduation.

"Alright then!" Hua Jueming reluctantly agreed. Although he felt that the food prepared in this environment was not worth eating, Su Bai had said that he hadn't eaten it in a long time, so eating it once in a while was fine. "Then I'll be going now." He had already memorized the location where Su Bai and the others had agreed, and he would rush back as soon as he finished his business.

Before leaving, Hua Jueming gave the brown bear spirit another special instruction: he must protect Su Bai's safety and absolutely not allow any accidents to happen to Su Bai!

Knowing what Su Bai meant to the demon race, the brown bear spirit immediately promised, "I will definitely protect you closely!" However, the road at the back gate was occupied by stalls, and there was nowhere to park. He needed to find a parking spot so he could follow Su Bai with peace of mind.

While the brown bear spirit was parking the car, Su Bai and Wang Ming couldn't wait to head to Yandu Dry Pot. Looking at the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar food, Su Bai's face showed excitement.

When Su Bai saw a barbecue restaurant, his eyes lit up. He definitely wanted to come and have some barbecue later!

Salt Capital Dry Pot is a standard feature in almost every university and is very popular among students. When Su Bai and Wang Ming arrived, Fu Fei also arrived.

Because they needed to discuss business, Fu Fei specifically requested a private room. However, it was really just a small space separated by two walls, with some plastic green leaves hanging on the walls as decoration.

"Senior brother!" Wang Ming saw Fu Fei and immediately ran forward excitedly. Su Bai followed slowly, and after watching Wang Ming and Fu Fei exchange a few pleasantries, he approached them. Wang Ming immediately introduced, "Senior brother, this is Su Bai."

"Hello, I'm Su Bai." Su Bai extended his hand to Fu Fei. Fu Fei glanced at Su Bai, looked him up and down, and then extended his hand as well. "Hello, I'm Fu Fei. Young Master Su, it's truly better to meet you in person than to have heard so much about you!"

He had met another young master of the Su family before. That person gave him the impression of a proper elite, someone who only looked down on others. But Su Bai was different. He was like a younger brother next door, similar to Wang Ming's impression. If there was any difference, it was that Su Bai still had some air of nobility, something that commoners like them could not cultivate.

"Haha," Su Bai laughed awkwardly. He didn't even know what kind of reputation he had outside, but judging from Fu Fei's reaction, it probably wasn't anything good. "After all, seeing is believing."

Fu Fei was taken aback, not expecting Su Bai to say that, then laughed twice, "Young Master Su is right! Please sit down!"

Wang Ming was on tenterhooks, but thankfully the atmosphere had eased, otherwise he wouldn't have known how to smooth things over.

After ordering, while waiting for the food to be served, Fu Fei spoke first, "Junior Brother has already told me Young Master Su's thoughts, but I don't understand why Young Master Su would do this?" After speaking, Fu Fei stared intently at Su Bai, not missing any emotional fluctuations on Su Bai's face.
