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

Teachers' Apartment 614.

Su Baizhou sat on the sofa, wearing a cute bunny ear hat, watching TV and following a drama series.

Every time thunder rumbles outside the window, her rabbit ears twitch.

When she was a child, she was fearless except for thunder.

Later, her uncle Fan Jian would use thunder to scare her, saying that the Thunder God would punish naughty children. Every time she was naughty, Fan Jian would bring up the Thunder God.

So every time there was thunder, Su Baizhou felt like the Thunder God was coming to grab her, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to move.

Although she now knows that all of this is fake, the childhood trauma is still deeply etched in her memory. Even though she is no longer afraid of thunder, she still instinctively freezes for a moment when she hears thunder.

However, wearing this bunny ear hat makes me feel less scared.

Even so, living alone and hearing thunder and rain outside can be quite unsettling.

After watching the TV series, Su Baizhou sat up from the sofa and prepared to go to the kitchen to make herself something to eat.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Su Baizhou walked over and looked through the peephole, finding Luo Ye standing at the door, completely soaked.

She opened the door, looked Luo Ye over from head to toe, and frowned as she said, "What's wrong with you...?"

"I……"

Luo Ye was at a loss for words.

Moreover, the situation was somewhat awkward.

He was not only soaked to the bone, but even the umbrella he took out was blown apart.

Finally, he lowered his head and whispered, "I'm hungry..."

He hadn't eaten lunch and was craving the food his senior had cooked.

Upon hearing this, Su Baizhou said calmly, "Come in, take a shower, and change your clothes."

"Oh……"

Seeing that the fairy-like senior sister wasn't too scared, Luo Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

He took a set of clothes from his room and then went into the bathroom to take a shower.

When he came out, Su Baizhou had already prepared lunch.

It was just two simple bowls of noodles with two eggs added.

Because of the rain, she didn't go to buy groceries, and all she had at home was noodles.

Luo Ye sat at the table and began to eat with relish.

Although the noodles tasted ordinary and were just something my senior cooked casually, everything she made had her aura, and Luo Ye loved to eat them.

Seeing him eat, Su Baizhou rested her chin on her hand and asked calmly, "Did you come all this way just to eat this bowl of noodles?"

"Of course... of course not."

Luo Ye scratched his head and muttered softly, "I thought senior was afraid of thunder."

Upon hearing this, Su Baizhou was slightly taken aback.

She had never mentioned this to Luo Ye, and she was surprised that he still remembered her little reactions when they first met.

"I'm not afraid of thunder," Su Baizhou said calmly.

Just as he finished speaking, a clap of thunder sounded outside.

Su Baizhou subconsciously grabbed the strings on both sides of the rabbit ear hat, and the two ears immediately stood up.

When the thunder stopped, my ears drooped again.

Thunder rumbled, and my ears perked up again.

What an amazing switch! It even has voice control.

"boom!"

Luo Ye couldn't help but imitate the sound of thunder, and sure enough, the fairy senior's rabbit ears stood up again.

At the same time, after sensing that something was wrong, Su Baizhou stared at Luo Ye with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Luo Ye shrank his neck and said, "I couldn't help myself, I couldn't help myself."

After finishing his meal, Luo Ye washed the dishes as usual, and then sat down on the sofa.

Beside her, the fairy-like senior looked out the window, observing the scene outside.

It was just past noon, but the outside was gloomy due to the obscuring clouds.

Coupled with the howling wind and the rumbling thunder, it was indeed quite frightening.

Su Baizhou turned her head and glanced at Luo Ye.

She noticed that Luo Ye was also looking at her.

She turned her head back and continued looking out the window.

What's there to be afraid of? With this guy right next to you, what's there to be scared of?

Meanwhile, Luo Ye was struggling with another problem.

He's been calling her "senior sister" for so long, when are you going to change that?

As the saying goes, if you want to take a relationship to the next level, you have to start by changing how you address someone.

Don't ask where this proverb comes from; Luo Ye just made it up himself.

So how should he address the fairy senior?

Porridge?

No, it seems a bit impolite to address my senior as that.

Food?

This is how the female senior's family addresses her; it's inappropriate for him to use that term.

After much thought, Luo Ye rejected numerous ways of addressing her, but still couldn't reach a conclusion. He then asked, "Senior sister."

"Ok?"

Su Baizhou turned to look at him.

Her beautiful eyes didn't have the coldness they had at first glance; instead, they held a hint of tenderness that was hard to detect.

Luo Ye turned his head away shyly.

Don't tell me, you really shouldn't tell me.

He and his senior couldn't make eye contact; if they did, one of them would inevitably turn their head away.

Luo Ye asked, "Senior, what do your other juniors call you?"

"Senior."

Luo Ye: ...

"What about the younger students you're closer to? Like senior Liu Jianglai?"

“He called me Senior Su,” Su Baizhou said casually.

Luo Ye fell silent.

Besides "senior sister", is there really no other way to address her?

He racked his brains trying to think of something.

At this moment, Su Baizhou suddenly spoke up, "If you mind how you address me, you don't have to call me senior."

"What's it called?"

"elder sister."

"Huh?" Luo Ye asked, puzzled.

“I said, you can call me sister.”

Su Baizhou really wanted to see Luo Ye's reaction.

I'm also really looking forward to seeing Luo Ye's expression when he calls her "sister".

Upon hearing this, a bold idea came to Luo Ye's mind.

Very bold.

The more you try to get him to do something, the more he wants to do the opposite.

His rebellious streak kicked in, and no one could stop him.

Gazing at the stunningly beautiful face of the fairy-like senior, he mustered his courage and finally uttered those three words.

"Sister Su!"

"roll."

"okay."

Luo Ye sat up from the sofa and fled back to his room.

Seeing Luo Ye flee, Su Baizhou rolled her eyes at him, but Luo Ye didn't see her charming demeanor.

She gazed at the quiet living room, lost in thought, and suddenly chuckled softly.

After getting to know the junior student, she even started smiling more often.

……

Women's bed.

Qin Yuwen curled up in the quilt, alone in the dormitory, listening to the thunder outside the window, her whole body trembling.

"Is nobody really paying attention to me? I'm afraid of thunder."

There was no one in the dormitory; all that could be seen was a bulging blanket shivering.
