Senior, don't be afraid, I'll protect you.

"What are you doing here?" Su Baizhou asked.

"Come and play!"

Luo Ye handed the milk tea in his hand to Su Baizhou.

He saw the fairy-like senior here, so he took some time to buy a cup of milk tea before coming back.

Seeing the clear handprint on the fairy-like senior's face, Luo Ye's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't ask anything.

Something unpleasant must have happened. If the senior student wanted to say something, she would say it herself. Since she didn't say it, I won't ask.

Taking the milk tea, Su Baizhou stood up and said, "We're not accepting customers here anymore."

"Yes."

Luo Ye looked back, and then his stomach started growling.

He hasn't eaten much since last night. He had blue porridge ramen for lunch and is hungry now.

Hearing her stomach growl, Su Baizhou picked up her suitcase, stood up, and said softly, "Let's go eat."

However, due to the holiday and the fact that Lingyin Temple is located on a mountain, the taxis and buses going down the mountain were very crowded.

The two chose to walk down the mountain, which was a rather long journey.

Luo Ye took the suitcase from Su Baizhou's hands, helped her carry her luggage, and then began the journey down the mountain.

After walking for about half an hour, they had left the peak traffic area, but neither of them suggested taking a taxi to leave.

Moreover, the two did not speak during those half hour; they simply walked side by side in silence.

Luo Ye stopped in his tracks when he passed a convenience store.

There's a sausage grill machine at the entrance of the convenience store, and the sausages inside look and smell delicious.

Mainly, Luo Ye was really hungry.

Su Baizhou also looked over.

Unlike Luo Ye, she hadn't eaten all day.

She subconsciously swallowed, then looked at Luo Ye and said, "If you want to eat, I'll buy two."

"Not enough, too little."

Luo Ye waved his hand and bought six sticks, putting them into a bag.

He handed one to his senior, thinking that girls should eat less, and then ate the remaining five himself.

Su Baizhou looked at the grilled sausage in her hand and started eating.

When she finished eating that one, she discovered that there was only one left in Luo Ye's bag.

"Mine, give it to me."

Su Baizhou stretched out her palm and asked for it in a serious tone.

For some reason, Luo Ye suddenly found this fairy-like senior student rather cute.

It creates a striking contrast, like a fairy descending to earth to cook on a stove.

This kind of senior is even more charming.

I don't know when it started, but the fairy-like senior who I used to think was out of reach has now become a commonplace thing, even if she appears next to me or we walk side by side.

After eating a few grilled sausages, Luo Ye was finally less hungry.

He checked the time and found it was already past seven o'clock.

As darkness fell completely, Luo Ye and Su Baizhou walked for a while longer before arriving at the lakeside.

This is the most famous place in Hangzhou, and it's also the West Lake in the name of West Lake Vinegar Fish.

Besides Luo Ye and Su Baizhou, there were many other couples strolling hand in hand.

The lake is beautiful. Across the lake, you can see the mountain range where Lingyin Temple is located. Some temple-like buildings stand on the mountain, emitting a beautiful light.

Luo Ye exclaimed in surprise, "It's so far! I didn't expect it to take us this long."

If this had happened before, he would have complained of being tired long ago.

But with the fairy senior by his side, he felt that this road would never end, and he even wanted to keep walking forever.

Just as Luo Ye was admiring the beautiful scenery by the lake, Su Baizhou took out her phone and started hailing a taxi.

Destination, station.

She had just bought two tickets to return to her hometown, 40 kilometers away. At this time of day, she could also buy night tickets.

By the time Luo Ye came to his senses, the taxi had already stopped by the roadside.

After getting on the bus, Luo Ye asked in confusion, "Senior, where are we going?"

"station."

"Huh? Are we going back to Jiangcheng?" Luo Ye asked.

"Do not."

Su Baizhou looked out the window and opened the car window a crack.

A breeze slipped in through the cracks, lifting Su Baizhou's long hair, and a captivating fragrance wafted onto Luo Ye.

The alluring scent that wafted towards him made Luo Ye's heart race. Gazing at his senior's stunning profile, he asked haltingly, "Then...where are we going?"

"Come to my house."

Su Baizhou knew that Luo Ye would have nowhere to stay in Hangzhou, so he could only go back to her mother's place with her.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye lowered his head, feeling somewhat nervous.

His luggage is still at the hotel...

Oh well, they're just some clothes anyway, might as well just leave them.

No clothes are as important as my senior.

The taxi arrived at the station.

The two found their bus and embarked on their long night journey.

There weren't many people on the bus, and it was quiet all around. The chirping of crickets could be heard from the surrounding grass.

Moonlight streamed through the car window and fell on Su Baizhou's face.

That exquisite face is stunning no matter how you look at it.

Su Baizhou sat in the seat inside, while Luo Ye, holding her suitcase, sat outside.

Su Baizhou rested her chin on her hand by the window, gazing calmly out the window.

Luo Ye looked down at his phone.

When he's bored, he'll check out the new student group chat.

Because there are always a few conspicuous packets in the group.

For example, right now, a guy who claims to be a rich second generation posted a picture of a supercar in the group and said, "I knew I shouldn't have driven here. I didn't expect parking at school to be so troublesome."

Some people below posted speechless emojis.

Subsequently, this rich second-generation actually tagged Tang Enqi in the group chat.

@Tang Enqi, Enqi, do you think my car is cool?

Tang Enqi didn't dare to reply at all.

Although this guy may really be a rich kid, this is a school, and people care more about their reputation than money.

Replying directly would make them seem materialistic.

Of course, when faced with the choice between face and money after leaving school, most people would choose the latter. But undeniably, school is one of the few places where everyone can appear to be equal on the surface.

Sudden.

The bus jolted, and Su Baizhou's body involuntarily leaned closer. Luo Ye felt something soft against his shoulder.

His expression changed; he was now at the most tense moment of his life.

"Senior?"

Luo Ye lowered his voice and murmured softly.

But the person next to him did not respond. He turned his head slightly and looked at the ice queen next to him, only to find that she had fallen asleep.

No wonder she's been so calm; Luo Ye thought she was just admiring the scenery.

Seeing the fairy-like senior sister's appearance, Luo Ye was extremely moved. He stared at her pretty face without blinking, unable to look away.

Senior...you're so pretty.

Moreover, although she appears strong on the surface, she is actually a sensitive little girl who needs to be taken care of.

At this moment, the slap mark on Su Baizhou's face was no longer visible. Luo Ye unconsciously reached out and touched his senior's pretty face.

He had never touched a girl's face in his life, and at this moment he only gently poked it with his finger.

So soft...

Are all girls' faces as soft as cotton?

Luo Ye didn't notice that Su Baizhou's eyebrows twitched slightly, but her eyes remained closed.
