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

In the end, Luo Ye obtained a high-resolution photo, which was also his first photo with the fairy-like senior.

He then added the photographer's WeChat (green bubble), who sent him the photos with a dark expression, saying, "Twenty-one photos."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye asked in confusion, "Isn't it free?"

"Twenty extra for a group photo."

Luo Ye: ...

Even so, considering that the other party's photos were indeed quite good, Luo Ye still paid twenty yuan.

There were other cameramen around, and Luo Ye had just overheard other cameramen offering their prices when soliciting customers. It was indeed twenty yuan, so he wasn't losing out.

In the photo, he is standing next to the fairy-like senior, holding one of her small hands.

The two leaned against the edge of the bridge; one was dressed in ancient black Hanfu, and the other in modern casual clothes.

Combined with the backdrop of the ancient town behind him, it looks as if he has traveled back to ancient times, fallen in love with a lady from a prominent family, and is telling her how wonderful and colorful the future world is.

The photos are excellent; the angles are perfect, making them look very realistic.

Before leaving, Luo Ye couldn't help but give the cameraman a thumbs up.

The latter's face darkened, and he looked dejected.

What a waste of joy! It all turned out to be someone else's doing all the work...

Jiangcheng Ancient Town covers a large area, and Luo Ye and Su Baizhou walked around for a long time before reaching the end.

There were many places selling things on the street. Luo Ye originally wanted to buy something, but Su Baizhou stopped him.

It is said that the snacks at tourist attractions are not only expensive, but also very unpalatable.

Ancient towns are only suitable for taking photos and checking in; they are not suitable for spending money.

The two returned the way they came and saw a small stall selling pets at the entrance of the attraction.

Among the rows of small cages, Su Baizhou found a little rabbit locked in a pink cage and her heart fluttered.

Luo Ye rarely saw the fairy-like senior sister's heart flutter, so he asked curiously, "Senior sister, do you like rabbits?"

"Ah."

Su Baizhou nodded.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye's expression hardened, knowing that this was the moment for him to display his masculine charm.

He stepped forward, pointed at the rabbit, and said, "Boss, I'll buy it."

The shop owner, holding a large pile of rings of various colors, asked in confusion, "We offer ring toss here; it costs ten yuan per round."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye showed an embarrassed expression, and then said, "Let's do it once."

"Five starting points."

The boss pointed to a sign in the distance covered with rules and began to wonder if Luo Ye was not quite right in the head.

Luo Ye: ...

After buying five rings, Luo Ye aimed at the pink cage and immediately threw them.

Missed.

Throw it again!

Didn't win!

He threw it again...

Missed.

On the fourth circle, he took a deep breath, thinking to himself, "This is different from playing the claw machine."

He used his fourth chance, but missed.

The last time... I won!

Luo Ye excitedly grabbed the little rabbit.

The stall owner was overjoyed, because this rabbit wasn't worth fifty yuan; it wasn't even a pet rabbit, it was just something he used to eat.

Luo Ye, carrying the pink cage, came to the fairy senior, took out the rabbit, and handed it to her.

Su Baizhou nodded in satisfaction and said calmly, "Dinner is taken care of."

Luo Ye: ? ? ?

Holding the adorable bunny, he looked at the fairy-like senior with eyes filled with shock for the first time.

devil!

Bunnies are so cute, senior, you actually want to eat bunnies?

Luo Ye looked at the innocent-looking rabbit in his arms and wondered whether to steam or braise it for dinner, and whether to add more cumin.

Unexpectedly, the fairy-like senior's attraction to rabbits wasn't because she thought they were cute, but simply because she wanted to eat them.

After leaving the scenic spot, the two did not go to the parking lot, but instead went to the riverbank.

Hejiang is a major river that runs through Jiangcheng and is very famous in the city.

Along both sides of the river are magnificent high-rise buildings and countless commercial districts, making it the most dazzling place in the entire city at night.

But whether it's Jiangcheng, or the neighboring Shanghai, or the hometown of Fairy Sister Hangzhou, or Luo Ye's hometown of Beijing.

These first-tier and super-first-tier cities are only truly dazzling metropolises when you have money.

Without money, the city is full of malice and pressure; it's a cruel machine that makes it hard to breathe at all times.

Su Baizhou leaned on the railing of the pedestrian viewing platform by the river, staring expressionlessly at the high-rise buildings across the river.

Luo Ye watched this scene and felt that the city was very beautiful.

Looking at the fairy-like senior, Luo Ye asked, "Senior, have you thought about the future?"

"No."

Su Baizhou answered very decisively.

She never thought about the future.

Her life is about taking things one step at a time.

Because she is so outstanding, it seems that her future has always been planned out.

Who arranged this for her?

It could be her own voice, or it could be the voices of those around her.

When she was in elementary school, she had excellent grades, and everyone said she would get into a top junior high school.

The same thing happened in junior high school; amidst everyone's expectations, she entered a prestigious high school.

When everyone thought she could get into Tsinghua or Peking University, she had a fever that day and underperformed in the college entrance examination, so she ended up at Jiangnan University instead.

Although Jiangnan University is a prestigious university, it cannot compare to Tsinghua and Peking Universities.

That day, she could never forget the looks in her teacher's and classmates' eyes—a mix of mockery, pity, and regret.

Even if she underperformed, she still ranked first in her class and among the top five in the whole school. She didn't understand why those who didn't do as well as her looked at her like that.

It's as if she's a failure because she didn't get into the best university.

At that moment, she suddenly felt that life was meaningless.

In addition, after the college entrance examination, she was confessed to and spread rumors about, and she seemed to suddenly become the person despised by everyone.

People seem to enjoy trampling on those who were once better than themselves, using others' failures to highlight their own superiority.

That was the beginning of Su Baizhou becoming the aloof school beauty.

When she arrived at Jiangnan University, she remained as outstanding as ever, becoming the first in her class to be recommended for postgraduate studies.

She also met the professor who gave her a spot in the postgraduate program, namely Gu Mingxuan.

Gu Mingxuan is the same type of person as her, but they are fundamentally different.

Gu Mingxuan also noticed Su Baizhou's problem at a glance and said something to her.

"Your name is Su Baizhou, right? Your grades are good, but that's all. Although you got full marks on your exam papers and mock exams, you lack a lot of flexible thinking if you really want to work in the computer industry."

That was the first time she had been rejected.

But Gu Mingxuan was right. She was just memorizing by rote and learning step by step according to the teacher's words, so she got full marks on everything the teacher taught.

As the heir to the group, Gu Mingxuan has faced greater pressure and more scrutiny since childhood than Su Baizhou. His life cannot afford any blemishes...

But he had a smile on his face the whole time, and he looked very relaxed.

As for the reason... he said that he has a younger brother, a very interesting younger brother.

He also said...

"Once you meet him, you'll understand why I'm so optimistic."

……

"Senior?"

Luo Ye stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Su Baizhou, asking in confusion, "Are you spacing out?"

"Ah."

"What are you thinking about? You're not thinking about me, are you?"

"Ah."

"Hahaha, I was just kidding, senior, hahaha... huh?"
