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

At the entrance of the police station.

Luo Ye sat on the steps, still somewhat disoriented.

The policeman had a big smile on his face when he brought him out.

On his way out, the other police officers from the police station were watching him while trying not to laugh.

What is going on?

Is this not a dream?

How could such a miraculous thing happen?

Unable to understand, Luo Ye could only take a taxi back to his family dormitory.

As soon as the door opened.

The living room was filled with the familiar aroma of food.

On the table were some freshly cooked dishes, as well as two sets of bowls and chopsticks.

More importantly, the fairy-like senior student who should have already returned to the countryside of Hangzhou was sitting at the table, seemingly waiting for him to eat.

At that moment, the things that had puzzled me just moments before suddenly became clear.

Because her senior said she was going back to her hometown, Luo Ye didn't even consider that possibility.

However, he did not tell his senior beforehand that he was coming to Jiangcheng.

Imagine a girl who returns home after half a month, walks into her room, and finds that the blanket is bulging, clearly indicating that someone has been sleeping inside.

Who wouldn't be scared?

The senior student making the call to the police was the right choice.

Luo Ye sat opposite the fairy-like senior. In the living room, there was also the senior's suitcase, which seemed to indicate that she had just returned not long ago.

Everything felt like a dream.

"Senior sister..."

Luo Ye was about to say something when Su Baizhou interrupted him:

"Didn't we say we'd stay home and not go back to Jiangcheng during this time?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye lowered his head, stammering and unable to speak.

The next moment, he stole a glance at the fairy-like senior and whispered, "Senior, didn't you say you were going back to the countryside with Uncle Fan Jian to avoid trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Su Baizhou remained silent.

Before returning to the countryside, Su Baizhou always felt a void in her heart.

She kept asking herself, is this a good thing?

And so they went their separate ways, waiting for the storm to pass before meeting again.

This is the safest approach.

but……

Is this really good?

Is this what she wants?

No.

What she wanted was to get through this experience with her junior.

In the past, whenever they encountered various situations or problems, they always got through them together.

In the past, every time there was thunder or rain, her junior would come to see her without fail.

before……

When she was far away in Hangzhou, sitting alone and helpless at the entrance of Lingyin Temple, needing someone to accompany her the most, her junior classmate unexpectedly appeared in front of her.

Why can't she do it?

She checked the plane tickets and found that she could also go to Beijing.

So before going to Beijing, she took the high-speed train back to see her kittens, who were almost a month old.

Her flight was originally scheduled for this evening.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the room, I saw someone sleeping in my bed.

She was covered by a blanket, her head was covered, but half of her leg was exposed.

Considering that her junior was still in Beijing, and that Shen Qiao and Qin Yuwen couldn't possibly be sleeping in her bed, she called the police directly for her own safety.

Su Baizhou didn't speak, and neither did Luo Ye.

After not seeing each other for half a month, what made them silent was not the distance between them, but the fact that the other person's actions were exactly the same as their own.

They both remained silent, but everything was understood without being said.

Looking at the food on the table, Luo Ye broke the silence first and said with a soft laugh, "Senior, you just missed me, didn't you?"

He picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and began to eat.

"Oh? Don't you miss me?" Su Baizhou asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Of course I miss her. Every day since I got back, I've been thinking about my senior."

“If you had come back a day later, I would have gone to the capital.” Su Baizhou glanced at Luo Ye.

"Same here. If you had come back a day later, I would already be in your hometown."

Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance.

The next moment, they both laughed.

The next moment, they looked towards a corner of the living room.

There was a cat birthing room there, with six kittens staring at the two of them with wide, curious eyes.

The members of this family are truly indispensable.

Luo Ye, Su Bai Zhou, and a little kitten.

If any of the three parties were missing, they wouldn't be able to meet at the family quarters today.

"Senior."

"Ah."

"Let's keep one kitten."

"I know."

Luo Ye had mentioned this before: of the six kittens, five would be given away, and he would keep one to raise himself.

"Let's call it Red Thread," Luo Ye said.

"Not nice."

Su Baizhou looked towards the cat birthing room, especially at the only female kitten.

She knew that the junior student definitely wanted to keep this one.

Without this little female cat, the junior student would never have gone home to his dormitory building.

After all, the other five are all rebellious children.

"What do you think it should be called, senior?"

Upon hearing this, Su Baizhou pondered for a moment.

Red line.

Incorporating the name suggested by her junior, Su Baizhou said, "Let's call her Matchmaker."

"Little Matchmaker? No wonder it's a name given by my senior, it sounds so nice."

Now, the kitten, which is just over twenty days old, has already lost some of its rough and unkempt appearance.

They have big, watery eyes that are very cute, and they all look blank and full of curiosity about the outside world.

Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year.

The year isn't even over yet.

But for the two of them, the best outcome has already occurred.

Because Lunar New Year's Eve and the Spring Festival are spent with family.

And the rest of the time can be spent with each other.

Before coming here, Su Baizhou was a little worried that her mother might not agree to her coming.

But Fan Xinya just smiled with relief and told her that she was very relieved that she had come to Luo Ye's side.

When people fall in love, the ultimate goal is undoubtedly to become family, accompany each other, and walk together to the end of life.

Life is short, only a few decades, and walking alone can be a little lonely.

But for two people, the scenery along the way becomes incredibly beautiful.

Happiness can be accumulated.

My own happiness, and the happiness of my loved ones.

Together, that's double the happiness.

So... what is love?

This is a very complex problem.

But Su Bai Congee already has its own standard answer.

They also gained love.

She looked at her junior.

This time, I have an overwhelming confidence in being with them and getting through the pandemic safely together.

Victory and love belong to both of them.
