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

The fairy-like senior student didn't come for today's morning run.

Of course, it would be abnormal for her to come, since she's on her period.

After finishing his run, Luo Ye went to the cafeteria to buy breakfast and then delivered it to his senior at the teachers' apartment.

Opening the door to room 614 of the staff dormitory, Luo Ye called out softly, "Senior?"

After finding no one responding, Luo Ye tiptoed in.

The senior student is probably still sleeping.

Luo Ye placed breakfast on the table, then checked the time and, realizing it was almost time for class, hurriedly headed towards the classroom.

Today is Wednesday, and the opening ceremony of the sports meet is next Tuesday.

Time was tight, so Luo Ye seized every spare moment to exercise.

Although he knew that even if a miracle happened in just half a month, it might not change anything.

But he will do his best to finish this task.

The senior student has already promised him a reward, so what reason does he have not to work hard?

As soon as the afternoon classes ended, Luo Ye rushed to the playground.

At that moment, the track and field club's daily training was also in progress.

With the sports meet approaching, there are many people running laps on the track. Those who have signed up for events will practice on the track before the sports meet.

Luo Ye has become familiar with even the track and field club because he comes to run laps on time every day.

Because Yu Qiuyu was familiar with Luo Ye, he even invited Luo Ye to join the track and field club's training.

Meng Chao, the president of the track and field club, liked people like Luo Ye who could persevere, even though in his eyes Luo Ye's athletic ability was pitifully small.

At this moment, Luo Ye, invited by the track and field club, ran behind them.

However, running is just a warm-up for the track and field club, but for Luo Ye, it is already his peak.

There is still a significant gap between ordinary people and sports enthusiasts and professional athletes.

These gaps require not only consistent daily training but also talent to bridge.

After finishing the run, Yu Qiuyu squatted down in front of Luo Ye and asked, "Classmate, you worked so hard, did you set some kind of goal for yourself?"

"Ah."

Luo Ye said, "I promised someone I would get a top-three finish in the 3000 meters."

Upon hearing this, Yu Qiuyu looked surprised. She looked at Luo Ye and couldn't help but say, "Top three?! You know that three of our track and field club members are participating, and besides the track and field club, there are many other talented people in the school. There are already more than sixty people who have signed up. To be honest, apart from the club president, even we don't have the confidence to get into the top three..."

With over sixty people, things will get chaotic, and everyone will run away together.

Many people will also give up halfway through.

Luo Ye still remembered what the coach told him.

The only shortcut to long-distance running is perseverance.

Luo Ye wiped his sweat, stood up from the lawn, and continued running laps.

This was the only thing he could do...

Seeing this single-minded young man, Yu Qiuyu also showed an expression of admiration.

It's clear that he really wants to win a prize; the goal he set for himself is very important to him.

On the other side of the playground, Liu Bingxin and Tang Enqi, along with two other girls from their class, were also exercising. They had all participated in the sports meet and were now getting used to the environment.

However, they only ran two or three laps before stopping, since they hadn't signed up for the long-distance race.

Seeing Luo Ye run back and forth for more than a dozen laps, Liu Bingxin exclaimed in surprise, "Qiqi, has your high school classmate gone crazy?"

Tang Enqi: ...

She did not speak.

But she also knew Luo Ye quite well.

Therefore, she knew that Luo Ye was working so hard, and it was definitely not for his own sake.

A person like him, if he seriously does something he's not interested in, it must be for someone else's sake.

Tang Enqi found this behavior childish.

In other words, she would have thought Luo Ye was childish when he treated her like that before.

But now, seeing Luo Ye doing this for others... Tang Enqi felt a slight pang of envy.

People are trapped for life by things they cannot obtain in their youth.

This is a pity.

So what is regret?

The things we miss out on in our youth are the things we regret.

Tang Enqi felt a bitter taste in her mouth. She didn't know how to describe her feelings at that moment. All she knew was that she felt like crying.

But she couldn't cry in front of other people.

She wanted everyone to know that she had no regrets; only then could she find a sliver of solace.

Who can blame her for being a proud person at heart?

Tang Enqi left the playground alone, without even Liu Bingxin noticing.

Outside the playground, Tang Enqi, who was in a bad mood, saw a large crowd gathered not far away.

However, she wasn't in the mood to join in the fun, so she simply passed by.

"Tang Enqi!"

Suddenly, she heard someone call her name and instinctively looked over.

However, Gao Yuming was dressed in expensive clothes, holding roses, and wearing a designer watch on his wrist.

Especially the sports car key hanging on the outside of his waist pocket is particularly eye-catching.

Under everyone's gaze, he stepped out from the crowd, handed the roses to Tang Enqi with a bright smile, and said, "Be my girlfriend!"

Tang Enqi watched this scene expressionlessly.

Seeing that the other party did not respond, Gao Yuming repeated himself:

"Be my girlfriend."

Tang Enqi was already so upset she wanted to cry, and when she saw Gao Yuming, she lost control of her emotions and said, "Can you please stop bothering me!"

After saying that, she quickened her pace and left.

Gao Yuming stood there, stunned.

The people around him also showed mocking expressions.

So what if he's a rich kid? He still gets rejected without hesitation.

He didn't care, nor was he angry. Instead, he gave a bitter smile, took a deep breath to compose himself, and silently turned and left.

The incident here did not affect the playground.

Luo Ye did not leave the playground until the track and field club's activities ended.

He sat on the lawn, gazing at the darkening sky, a thoughtful expression on his face.

That cloud looks like a fairy senior.

After sitting for a while, he stood up, ready to go back to his dormitory, but suddenly noticed a familiar figure sitting not far away.

The figure was wearing a white hat with two rabbit ears hanging down from it, making it look rather cute.

At this moment, she was wearing fluffy white pajamas, which matched her hat perfectly.

She looks familiar. Could she be the fairy-like senior?

Luo Ye walked over curiously, circled around to her, and discovered that this cute little thing was actually the fairy senior.

"Senior? What are you doing here? You're still in your pajamas. When did you get here?"

Luo Ye squatted down in front of her, looking at the fluffy little rabbit.

Su Baizhou looked at Luo Ye expressionlessly and said indifferently, "I don't know, I forgot."

The air was slightly cool, but the fairy-like senior's pajamas were thick, so she didn't feel cold.

"Senior, aren't you afraid of being recognized sitting on the playground like this?"

Upon hearing this, Su Baizhou calmly retorted, "Who could recognize it?"

This question truly stumped Luo Ye.

That's right. Who would have thought that the aloof school beauty would be wearing a thick onesie pajama and an adorable bunny ear hat, sitting on the lawn of the playground?

Ke Luoye immediately thought of someone and said, "Of course it's me."
