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

Saturday.

Luo Ye's package has arrived.

His leg is almost fully recovered; he walks with a limp, but it's no longer a major problem.

Luo Ye, carrying the bedding he had bought, arrived at the door of teacher's apartment 614.

He took a deep breath, put the two large packages on the ground, and was just about to knock on the door when his phone rang.

Fairy Senior: We're out of soy sauce at home, so I'll go to the supermarket downstairs to buy a bottle when I come.

Luo Ye was taken aback.

He then left the large package at the door without knocking, turned around and went back into the elevator, intending to go down to buy soy sauce.

After he left, Su Baizhou, who heard the noise, opened the door and looked out. She found two large packages at the door, but did not see Luo Ye.

This junior student arrived without saying a word and just went downstairs, completely clueless.

She squatted down and carried the bedding Luo Ye had bought inside.

In the living room, Su Baizhou touched the two packages and knew they were probably blankets or something similar. She used scissors to open the packages and then carried the bedding into Luo Ye's room.

Afterwards, she helped Luo Ye lay out the mattress and sheets, and thoughtfully put the duvet cover inside the quilt, making the bed neat and tidy all by herself.

On the other side, Luo Ye finally found the "supermarket downstairs" that the fairy senior had mentioned.

He had only been to the teachers' apartment building, Unit 4 of Building 5, where his senior lived, and he couldn't tell which place was which at all.

At that moment, on the first floor of the building next door, the owner of a small supermarket was playing video games.

Luo Ye ignored him and instead looked for soy sauce on the shelf.

There are many types of soy sauce.

But Luo Ye didn't see soy sauce, only light soy sauce and dark soy sauce.

So, should it be light soy sauce or dark soy sauce?

Luo Ye, who hadn't cooked much before, really didn't know what to buy.

So he bought both, since they weren't expensive anyway.

Holding two bottles of soy sauce, Luo Ye placed them in front of the shopkeeper.

"Bill, please."

"Wait a minute, we're about to get chicken."

The boss looked extremely serious, and the battle seemed to be at a great stalemate.

The small supermarkets downstairs in the residential complex are all run by residents themselves, so they sell very casually.

The next moment, the proprietress saw the boss slacking off and walked over angrily. She grabbed the boss's ear and yelled, "Playing games, playing games! All you do is play games! You don't even pay the bills when the customers come in!"

After saying that, she paid the bill for Luo Ye.

After leaving the supermarket, Luo Ye sighed with emotion.

Everyone has their own story.

Even the middle-aged couple who run the supermarket downstairs may have experienced a touching love story when they were young.

With a bottle in each hand, Luo Ye returned to the entrance of 614.

Seeing that the doorway was empty, his expression changed.

There's a sixth brother here; his package was stolen!

Thinking of this, Luo Ye quickly knocked on the door.

Not long after, the door opened, and Su Baizhou, wearing rabbit ears, looked at him.

Although this hat isn't expensive to buy directly, it has special meaning for Su Baizhou, so she likes to wear it at home.

But before she could speak, she noticed that Luo Ye's expression made her want to laugh.

(t▽t).

That's roughly how it is—finding joy in hardship, putting on a smiling face even though you look really sad.

Su Baizhou's lips twitched almost imperceptibly; she wanted to laugh, but couldn't hold it in.

Luo Ye limped in, then walked towards the kitchen and placed the two bottles of soy sauce inside.

He then sat on the sofa, looking utterly dejected, as if deep in thought.

After a while, he took out his phone again and kept swiping his fingers, seemingly looking at something.

Are you watching short videos of pretty girls?

Su Baizhou walked over and sat down next to him, with a body length between them.

She glanced sideways and secretly saw Luo Ye's phone screen, discovering that this junior was actually looking at bedding.

Su Baizhou was puzzled for a moment, but quickly realized what was going on.

Does he think his package was stolen?

Thinking of this, Su Baizhou had an idea and asked, "The housework for today hasn't been done yet."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye stood up, his previous frustration completely gone. He patted his chest and said, "Leave it to me, I guarantee I'll clean it up spotlessly for you, senior."

After saying that, he took out the cleaning tools and started doing housework.

In fact, the house was very clean and Luo Ye didn't need to clean it at all; Su Baizhou just wanted to tease him.

Even so, Luo Ye still cleaned it thoroughly.

After he finished his work, he sat back on the sofa and continued looking at bedding.

At this moment, Su Baizhou asked expressionlessly, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"

Luo Ye: ?

He tilted his head, looking at Su Baizhou with a blank expression, his big eyes filled with doubt.

Su Baizhou continued to feign indifference, saying calmly, "I remember saying I would have you take care of all the housework every day, not that I agreed to let you live here, right?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye's expression became even more stunned.

Is this what they call... wishful thinking?

That's right. Given Fairy Senior's personality, how could she possibly agree to live under the same roof as me, even if it's just in two different rooms?

Luo Ye lowered his head and locked his phone.

If we can't live there, then there's no need to buy bedding.

Ugh.

Luo Ye stood up and said somewhat stiffly, "I'm sorry, senior, I misunderstood. I'll be leaving now."

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.

Seeing his sad expression and his limping figure, Su Baizhou felt a pang of heartache.

The younger student was upset by her.

"Luoye".

The voice of the fairy-like senior student reached my ears.

As far as I can remember, this was the first time the fairy-like senior had called him by his name.

He turned his head slightly and stared blankly at Su Baizhou.

The Ice Goddess rested her chin on her hand, looking at him with a half-smile. Her tone wasn't so cold; instead, it carried a hint of playfulness as she said, "You forgot something in your room."

"what?"

Luo Ye was somewhat puzzled.

However, he still had to listen to what his senior said.

He turned around and limped to the door of his room.

His room key was stuck in the door.

This key has been in there ever since Luo Ye first came here, but today is a little different.

There was another key on the keychain.

That was the key to room 614 that Gu Mingxuan gave to Luo Ye, but after learning that the fairy-like senior lived there, Luo Ye returned the key to her.

After all, if a guy like him has a key, a girl would feel a little uneasy living there.

The room wasn't locked, and the key was just inserted.

Luo Ye turned the doorknob and went inside.

The moment the door opened, Luo Ye saw the neatly made bed and the opened delivery packages on the floor.

Behind me came the voice of the fairy senior:

"This room isn't cleaned yet."
