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

"Then I want to take graduation photos too."

"What, you want to graduate already in your freshman year?"

Hearing this, Luo Ye scratched his head and laughed, "No, senior, you know, graduation gowns are something that only happen once in a lifetime, so I definitely want to witness your graduation in person. When I graduate, I'll also ask you to take a picture with me."

Upon hearing this, Su Baizhou said calmly, "That would be two years from now."

“Yes, two years…that’s still a long time,” Luo Ye said.

"No, two years will pass quickly."

Su Baizhou said softly, "I don't remember anything from those two years. I just felt like I went back in a daze."

Her university life truly began in her junior year, from the moment she met Luo Ye.

"Alright, this class meeting is over. Class dismissed."

Su Baizhou spoke for an hour, and Liu Shengnan spoke for another half hour, and then the class ended.

The bell rang, and everyone stood up. However, everyone who passed by in the first row would glance at Luo Ye with curiosity.

What kind of person is this junior who won over their aloof school beauty?

Noticing that more and more eyes were turning to them, Su Baizhou took Luo Ye's hand in front of everyone, and then strode away from the classroom.

Seeing her departing figure, the class monitor was stunned for a moment, and said helplessly, "She won't even let us see her anymore. This aloof school beauty is actually protecting her own."

"Hahaha."

Everyone else laughed when they heard that.

After all, it was such a stark contrast that Su Baizhou, who was uninterested in anyone, would actually be so protective of a junior.

Ye Qing got up to leave, but another girl came to her side.

Upon seeing the girl, Ye Qing asked, "Do you still hate Su Baizhou?"

This girl was Zhu Lu, Su Baizhou's last roommate.

"I do not know."

Zhu Lu shook her head.

She wasn't exactly stunningly beautiful, but she wasn't ugly either; with makeup, she was considered above average.

Because she was somewhat attractive, she had many relationships from her freshman to junior year of college. Each time, she either dumped the other person or was dumped by them. None of her relationships lasted more than three months.

Su Baizhou and this junior have been together for about seven months.

They're doing better in their first relationship than I am, a seasoned player.

To be honest, she had already forgotten what the boy who dumped her to pursue Su Baizhou looked like.

All she remembered was that she hated Su Bai Zhou (a type of congee).

but……

She knew in her heart that she didn't care about any men. The reason she hated Su Baizhou wasn't because one of her boyfriends had dumped her for Su Baizhou.

She was just jealous of Su Baizhou.

Extremely jealous.

Why did Su Baizhou do nothing but stand there, and her boyfriend, whom she had pursued with all her might, dump her?

Why did Su Baizhou gain the teacher's favor and become the youngest and most handsome doctoral student at Jiang University, and the only disciple personally taught by Gu Mingxuan?

How could she win the national championship in her sophomore year...?

Based on...

After all this time, Su Baizhou already knew what she relied on.

While she was indulging in debauchery, Su Baizhou was studying.

While she was racking her brains to pursue men, Su Baizhou was studying.

Despite being pursued by others, Su Baizhou resolutely refused and continued her studies.

Therefore, as Su Baizhou becomes more and more outstanding, she will be highly regarded by her teachers and achieve accomplishments that are difficult for others to attain.

Because she was so outstanding, she met a boyfriend who was just as outstanding as her.

Everything she deserved was rightfully hers.

As graduation approached and she was unsure if she could even pass her final exams, she finally came to understand some things during this time before entering the workforce.

What is she doing? What is there to be jealous of?

Su Baizhou deserves everything she has achieved; she is worthy of her current success.

She was just a rat who couldn't stand seeing others do well.

This was the first time she had ever hated herself so much.

Hearing Ye Qing's words, she smiled and said, "It's all in the past. From now on, we're not from the same world anymore."

That kind of plain congee wouldn't remember her like this.

They will go their separate ways and drift further and further apart.

Watching Zhu Lu leave, Ye Qing sighed, then her gaze gradually hardened.

She has her own path to follow, and whether she can secure a place in the postgraduate program depends on her performance at the end of the semester.

……

By the time we arrived at the entrance of the teaching building, it was already dark.

The streetlights weren't very bright, but they were just enough to make it easy to see the road.

It seems that many classes held class meetings today. As one class after another ended, a large group of people walked out from behind the two people.

Suddenly, someone patted Luo Ye on the shoulder.

He turned around and saw that it was Gao Yuming.

"Brother Gao."

Luo Ye clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Brother Luo."

Gao Yuming also clasped his hands in a fist salute.

Su Bai Congee: ...

What strange creatures are men?

"You guys hold class meetings too?" Luo Ye asked with a smile.

"Yes."

After saying that, Gao Yuming noticed that Su Baizhou was standing next to Luo Ye and immediately said in surprise, "Senior Su is here too. Then I won't disturb you any longer. May you have a baby soon."

"What did you say?"

Luo Ye glared at him.

Gao Yuming grinned and quickly ran away.

……

On the other side, Xu Xiaojia and Tang Enqi also walked out of the teaching building, preparing to return to their dormitory.

Li Haoyang was the last to leave because he was in charge of the class meeting.

When he walked out of the teaching building, there were hardly any people left at the entrance.

"Huh? The class monitor?"

A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from behind him. Li Haoyang turned around and saw a very beautiful girl with a great figure, wearing a white tank top, walking up to him.

"long time no see."

She greeted Li Haoyang warmly.

The latter was slightly taken aback and asked in confusion, "Liu Bingxin?"

This person hasn't seen the other person for several months since changing his major.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to still remember me. I thought you had found someone new and forgotten about your old flame."

The tank top she wore revealed a glimpse of her alluring figure when she bent over slightly.

Li Haoyang was stunned. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Shen Qiao's voice coming from not far away.

"What are you dawdling for? Let's go."

"coming."

He ignored Liu Bingxin and turned to run towards Shen Qiao.

"You were waiting for me, Brother Shen Qiao."

"Yes, am I alright?"

"Great, Brother Shen Qiao is very good."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiao smiled slightly.

In my mind, I recalled the image of Liu Bingxin pacing back and forth at the entrance of the teaching building when I left.

Fortunately, he was cautious and waited for the coach there. Otherwise, given the coach's emotional intelligence, he would never have been able to outmaneuver Liu Bingxin.

It seems I'll have to remind the coach more often in the future.
