After being attacked by the rich young ladies with hatchets, I chose to enter "sage mode".

"Senior Bai Yu, what a coincidence!"

A sweet and joyful voice rang out behind Bai Yu, which startled her.

I was deliberately avoiding Qing Sisi when I saw her, but Bai Qiji kept running back and forth. What's going on?

"Senior?"

Bai Qiji originally thought that Qing Sisi definitely didn't know Bai Yu, and even if she saw him, she would walk away indifferently, which was exactly what he wanted to see.

But what's going on here? Calling him "senior" right off the bat? Isn't Bai Yu only a freshman? "Senior" my foot!

Bai Qiji was completely bewildered at this moment, but Bai Yu's grandmother saw Qing Sisi, the cheerful girl, and asked her a question with a smile.

"Bai Yu, who is this little girl?"

Turning around to look at Qing Sisi, the girl was wearing a white long-sleeved sweater with a white shirt underneath, a short skirt with long socks, and black round-toed leather shoes, giving her a very youthful look.

"Oh, Grandma, this is a junior I know. She's still in her senior year of high school, but she calls me senior because she wants to get into Beicheng University."

Bai Yu was explaining this to her grandmother to avoid any misunderstanding.

But Qing Sisi turned her gaze to Bai Yu's grandmother and smiled sweetly.

Hello, Grandma!

Chapter 202 The Elders' Misunderstandings Are Always Making Things Worse

Bai Yu was completely unprepared for Qing Sisi to appear here.

I originally thought this holiday would be a carefree one, completely avoiding my four ex-girlfriends... but now...

"Oh my, this young lady is quite pretty. Is she here to visit someone's family as well?"

Upon hearing Bai Yu's grandmother's words, Qing Sisi smiled and sat down in the seat that originally belonged to Bai Qiji, sitting next to Bai Yu.

This made Bai Qiji, who was standing to the side, feel very awkward. But Qing Sisi looked so pretty that he was too embarrassed to say that it was his seat, so he could only move to the side and sit down.

"Grandma, you're making me feel embarrassed, hehe~"

If we're talking about being playful and cute, then Qing Sisi is definitely the one who fits the bill.

However, all Bai Yu had to deal with was this playful cuteness; the problem was that this girl was not a normal person at all.

Perhaps Bai Yu's grandmother wanted to build connections for Bai Yu, or perhaps Qing Sisi wanted to build connections with Bai Yu's grandmother. The two of them hit it off and were very happy, completely ignoring Bai Yu.

Seeing this situation, Bai Yu felt that being caught in the middle was not a good thing, so she switched places with Qing Sisi so that she could sit next to her grandmother and chat slowly.

I was originally planning to sit here and play on my phone for a while after lunch, and then go back after dinner, but now it looks like I'll have to leave right after lunch.

As for Bai Qiji, he played on his phone the whole time without saying a word, acting all aloof.

However, Bai Yu could see a slight movement in this guy's eyes as he secretly glanced at Qing Sisi.

Based on experience, Bai Qiji definitely has some feelings for Qing Sisi.

However, this idea is just wishful thinking; it's basically impossible.

However, if you ask Bai Yu how much he knows about Qing Sisi, he actually doesn't know what kind of boy Qing Sisi likes.

You said Qing Sisi likes someone like me, but I always feel it's a bit too hasty, that's the feeling.

Honestly, Bai Yu doesn't think he's that outstanding. Aside from being a bit handsome, a bit multi-talented, and a bit eloquent, there's really nothing else to him.

Qing Sisi didn't understand Bai Yu, and naturally, she didn't understand Bai Yu either, which is why Bai Yu felt that her liking for her was inexplicable.

The banquet began after the group had been seated for about half an hour.

At times like this, Bai Yu really couldn't wait to finish eating and slip away.

Actually, if you were to ask what Qing Sisi did in that room in her previous life, she didn't do anything. She was the one who hid behind the door and closed it. Bai Yu didn't know whether Qing Sisi stabbed anyone or not.

After all, he lost consciousness quickly after being stabbed by Su Rongxue, and the last thing he saw was his four ex-girlfriends looking down at him with blood on their hands.

Perhaps that's a scene Bai Yu doesn't want to recall to this day, but some things can't be avoided just because he doesn't want to think about them.

Qing Sisi may not have stabbed herself, but she was definitely an accomplice. Isn't she afraid?

As for the omen before the cleaver, Bai Yu was definitely caught in Murong Liyue's conspiracy in his previous life, because he really didn't notice anything amiss before being stabbed.

In the end, they didn't even have a chance to struggle.

That's why Bai Yu said that among the four women, Murong Liyue was the most difficult to deal with, Su Rongxue was the most dangerous, Qing Sisi was the most troublesome, and Si Yu was the most difficult to handle.

Each has its own strengths, which is why Bai Yu would be happy to deal with as few as possible.

Bai Yu now felt that she had accomplished one thing: she had severed all ties between herself and Su Rongxue, leaving them only as friends.

In other words, Bai Yu now only needs to focus on the three women: Murong Liyue, Si Yu, and Qing Sisi.

This is at least the best news I've received since my rebirth.

As soon as the banquet started, Bai Yu focused on eating. A person who is just eating should act like a person who is just eating and not talk so much nonsense.

While Bai Yu was eating, Qing Sisi kept putting food on his plate, which made Bai Yu feel quite awkward.

They didn't want to be misunderstood in the first place, but now that they're picking up food with their chopsticks, anyone who sees this will surely misunderstand.

Especially Bai Qiji, who was standing to the side, felt increasingly uncomfortable the more he looked at him.

From childhood, his mother always said that Bai Yu would definitely not be as good as him when he grew up, not as good as him in this way or that way.

Bai Qiji suddenly realized that he wasn't as capable as his mother had said when it came to dating.

However, negative emotions are instantly erased by Bai Qiji's positive emotions; most people have this kind of mentality.

That is, as long as it is not completely certain, one will hold onto a sliver of hope and wishful thinking.

Bai Qiji is in this mindset now, because Bai Yu has already said that Qing Sisi is just his junior, not someone he's dating.

But soon enough, Bai Qiji's wishful thinking was completely shattered.

"Oh my, this girl is always putting food on Bai Yu's plate. Is it because she's too shy to say she's a boyfriend or girlfriend and insists on calling him 'senior' or 'junior'?"

"I think so too. Where else can you find upperclassmen and underclassmen who are so friendly? I saw Bai Yu's face was all smiles; she must really like him!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, if my grandson were that convinced, I would go to the Great Buddha Temple in Beicheng tomorrow to burn incense and pray to thank the heavens."

......

Originally, the people at this table were mostly older, and several of the elderly women knew Grandma Bai Yu; they had even played mahjong together before.

These people are really stirring things up when they start making fun of each other.

Qing Sisi had never seen so many people misunderstand her and Bai Yu. Now she was so embarrassed that she didn't even dare to put food on Bai Yu's plate.

However, this misunderstanding was very detrimental to Bai Yu, so he had to step in immediately to stop it.

"Elders, please don't talk nonsense. Look how embarrassed he is. I'm really just his senior, and not really his senior. It's not the kind of relationship you're talking about, it's really not like that."

"Oh, really? Young men these days should be bolder, what's there to be embarrassed about?"

"Yes, we've all been through this, what's there to be embarrassed about? Don't you all know the answer in your hearts?"

Bai Yu felt she really couldn't stand this kind of misunderstanding from her elders. You might think they had bad intentions, but actually they didn't. It was all just good-natured teasing.

You could even say they have a bit of a gossipy mentality.

Moreover, any normal person would surely think that a pretty, playful, and cheerful girl like Qing Sisi would be very popular. Who wouldn't like her?

But Bai Yu doesn't really think that way now. You can use it to misunderstand Bai Qiji, but don't use it to misunderstand yourself.

If it's a misunderstanding, that guy Bai Qiji would definitely be hoping for such a misunderstanding to happen. Chapter 203 Counter-Trap (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Before the last dish was even served, Bai Yu slipped away under the pretext of going to the restroom.

The more this misunderstanding was explained, the less the elders seemed to believe it, even giving them the feeling that it was a case of trying to cover something up.

The main problem is that Qing Sisi just lowered her head shyly and didn't say anything. She didn't even know to stand up and refute. Wasn't she afraid that the misunderstanding would get bigger and bigger by keeping her head down and not saying anything?

Well... although this girl doesn't seem to be afraid of this misunderstanding at all, or rather, she wishes it weren't a misunderstanding, but the truth.

As Bai Yu walked around the crowd and reached the corner of the restroom, he glanced in Qing Sisi's direction. When he realized that the girl hadn't turned around to look at him, Bai Yu got up and ran away.

He ran away like a thief, and even the security guards and waiters looked at him with suspicion.

After Bai Yu ran out, she hailed a taxi and went back to the roadside.

Being with Qing Sisi and causing misunderstandings is not fun at all.

Most importantly, I can't let this girl's affection for me get any higher; I need to find a way to cut off her chances of increasing her affection.

Getting into a taxi, Bai Yu realized that she hadn't known much about Qing Sisi in her previous life, so it was a bit difficult to come up with a good way to lower her favorability in an instant.

However, as the saying goes, as long as you don't give up, there are always more solutions than problems.

Although she didn't know much about Qing Sisi, Bai Yu racked her brains and came up with a solution.

This method is to directly ask Qing Sisi what kind of boys and things she dislikes. Then, dress up as the type of boy Qing Sisi dislikes and give her the things she hates most. This will surely maximize her favorability.

Bai Yu couldn't do it right away; she should at least go back and ask a few days later, otherwise it would seem a bit abrupt.

Just as Bai Yu was sitting in the car, idly staring out the window, a WeChat message suddenly popped up on her phone.

Bai Yu wouldn't normally pay attention to this kind of thing, because he thought it was meaningless.

When Bai Yu glanced at the post and discovered that it was from Ju Qing, she became curious to see what it was.

Clicking on the message link, Bai Yu immediately saw what Ju Qing had posted.

The post contained a Dior lipstick advertisement. Originally, it was just an advertisement and nothing special, since most girls like these kinds of things.

But Ju Qing was different; she was actually fishing.

Because this advertisement also included a sentence.

"This lipstick is so pretty, I'll definitely buy one if I get the chance."

This sentence seems perfectly fine, but judging from Bai Yu's experience, it's a bait-and-switch tactic. Any sycophant with high emotional intelligence would understand the underlying meaning.

The comments under Ju Qing's posts also demonstrate this point.

There's no such thing as a goddess. Don't read too many novels. Not everyone's ideal goddess is actually called a goddess in real life.
