The flirtatious girl is done flirting; Mr. He is now obsessed with her.

After leaving the office, Bai Yishu quickly walked out of the teaching building, taking two steps at a time.

She leaned against the wall outside the teaching building, breathing heavily, a sour feeling churning inside her throat making it hard to breathe.

A moment later, she raised the back of her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, a bitter smile appearing on her lips.

She asked him to do this, so there's no reason for him to be crying and wailing here.

Then so be it, Bai Yishu...

To fulfill her promise to He Yunshen, Bai Yishu simply disappeared from his sight completely.

She skipped class this Friday and didn't come.

He Yun Shen stepped into the classroom, his eyes subconsciously scanning Bai Yi Shu's usual seat, but he didn't see her.

As the school bell rang, a student walked into the classroom and handed He Yunshen a form.

"Professor He, this is Bai Yishu's application to withdraw from the course."

He Yun Shen took the application form, his face instantly darkening, his fingers trembling slightly as he gripped the paper.

"Withdrawing the course..."

He looked at the application form and murmured to himself, his tone a mixture of shock and anger.

After class, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the low air pressure foreshadowed an approaching storm.

He Yun Shen found himself in the library as if possessed. He wandered among the bookshelves, Bai Yi Shu's image constantly appearing in his mind, and unknowingly walked to the spot where they had last met.

A few students were scattered around the tables and chairs next to the bookshelf, reading, while Bai Yishu sat in a corner, her eyes focused on the book in front of her.

When He Yun Shen saw Bai Yi Shu, he paused, gazing at her with mixed feelings, wanting to go forward yet also wanting to leave. In the end, he leaned against the bookshelf and silently watched her.

Bai Yishu would occasionally look up to flip through her book, then look down to write something in her notebook, her long eyelashes casting a fan-shaped shadow under her eyes.

At this moment, a boy walked straight towards Bai Yishu and sat down on the chair next to her.

He Yun Shen watched as the boy sat down next to Bai Yi Shu, a strong sense of jealousy welling up inside him. He clenched his fists and stared at their every move.

Bai Yishu.

To avoid disturbing the other students, the boy deliberately lowered his voice and spoke to Bai Yishu.

"Did you take notes for last class? Can I borrow them?"

"Let me look..."

Bai Yishu looked down, pulled out a notebook, and opened it in front of the boy.

"That's roughly the content..."

Bai Yishu drew a range on her notebook with a pen. As she looked down, her hair fell down beside her ears, blocking the boy's view.

The boy casually brushed Bai Yishu's hair behind her ear and continued reading his notebook.

This scene happened right in front of He Yun Shen's eyes.

He Yun Shen's pupils contracted sharply, and his blood seemed to rush to his head. The next second, he strode towards Bai Yi Shu and grabbed the boy's wrist.

"Get out!"

He Yun Shen's grip was incredibly strong, and his eyes seemed to want to devour the boy whole.

Bai Yishu was so shocked by this scene that she stood there stunned, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

"you……"

Bai Yishu came to her senses and was interrupted by He Yunshen as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Bai Yishu, you'd better not say anything."

Seeing the boy hesitate, He Yun Shen abruptly shook off his hand, saying each word like a blade, "Aren't you leaving? Do you want me to do it?"

The boy left dejectedly, and everyone else in the library was too frightened to utter a sound, except for the faint rattling of the windows caused by the strong wind outside.

"Professor He..."

He Yun Shen braced his hands on the table in front of Bai Yi Shu, his chest heaving violently.

"Bai Yishu, you dropped my class just so you could flirt with another man in the library?"

He Yun Shen's voice was exceptionally clear in the quiet library, and the surrounding students instantly erupted in a commotion.

"What are you talking about?"

Bai Yishu gasped, unable to meet the gazes around her.

"Don't play dumb."

"I saw it all. When he touched your hair, weren't you smiling happily?"

Bai Yishu's face flushed red and then turned pale. She covered her face with a book and said in a low voice, "Keep your voice down."

"What, afraid someone will hear?"

He Yun Shen not only didn't lower his voice, but deliberately raised it a few notches, his eyes full of provocation and a hint of barely perceptible grievance.

"When you were getting intimate with that guy, didn't you ever think about being seen?"

"you……"

Ignoring the stares of others, Bai Yishu grabbed the books from the table and rushed out of the library.

When He Yun Shen saw her run away, he reached out to grab her but missed. He heard the whispers around him and felt an indescribable sense of regret.

"Damn it!"

He muttered a curse under his breath and stormed off into the library.

"Bai Yishu!" Lightning flashed and thunder roared outside, and rain poured down instantly.

Seeing that Bai Yishu didn't stop walking, He Yunshen immediately sped up to catch up and grabbed her arm, pulling her back.

"Let me go!"

"I won't let go!"

He Yun Shen held her even tighter and turned her around to face him.

"You're the one who told me not to appear in front of you, what else are you dissatisfied with?"

He Yun Shen was taken aback by her question. He unconsciously loosened his grip on her hand slightly. He opened his mouth, but found that all his words were pale and powerless. The hurtful words he had once said came flooding back like a tide.

"I saw you with that boy..."

"I can't take it."

Thunder roared in Bai Yishu's ears. She felt like she had misheard, but she could clearly read his lip movements.

"What?"

"I……"

He Yun Shen met her gaze, his eyes surging with anger, jealousy, and resentment, his voice trembling.

"Damn it! I don't want to see you smile at other people, I don't want to see other people touch you!"

Bai Yishu froze, oblivious to the rain soaking her to the bone. She stared blankly up and met the surging emotions in He Yunshen's eyes—an intensity she had never seen before, a stark contrast to his usual indifference.

"Bai Yishu, I might be going crazy."

He Yun Shen took a step closer to Bai Yi Shu, his tone tinged with self-deprecation.

"Haven't you always wanted to beat me?"

"Seeing me like this now, seeing how I've lost control because of you, aren't you very pleased with yourself?"

He Yun Shen's shirt was soaked by the rain and clung to his body. Rainwater slid down his hair and his entire face was also soaked in the rain.

Looking at his disheveled appearance, Bai Yishu felt a surge of emotions and was at a loss for words.

"Calm down..."

"How can you expect me to stay calm?"

He Yun Shen laughed in extreme anger, his voice rising several octaves, his usual calm and self-control completely gone.

Seeing you with someone else is driving me crazy.

His hands slipped from Bai Yishu's arms and hung limply at his sides, his voice filled with pain and despair.

"Bai Yishu, I'm asking you one last time... what exactly do you want from me?"

Bai Yishu's mind went blank, and her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to burst out of her body.

Looking at He Yun Shen's face so close to hers, all the pent-up grievances and feelings of attraction that had been building up for days turned into instinct at that moment.

The next second, she raised her hand, grabbed the back of He Yun Shen's neck, and stood on tiptoe to kiss him.

He Yun Shen's body tensed instantly, then he took the initiative, gripping her waist with his palm and deepening the sudden kiss.
