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

Goodness, Xia Rong realized that this was the first time Su Rongxue had ever criticized her for a boy.

The world is changing, it's really changing! Is my little angel going to be kidnapped by that big devil Bai Yu? How awful!

Xia Rong reached out and hugged Su Rongxue tightly, pressing her face against Su Rongxue's smooth, tender face as she said with a pitiful expression.

"Xiaoxue, you're hurting me so much. Baiyu has always been so mean to you, why are you treating him like this? Hey, you're being mean to me~ I'm starting to feel sad~"

Upon hearing Xia Rong's feigned grievances, Su Rongxue immediately realized that she might have spoken a bit harshly to Xia Rong and shouldn't have said that to her best friend.

So he quickly reached out and touched Xia Rong's cheek, comforting her like he was coaxing a child.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be mean to you, but it's wrong to scold Bai Yu..."

Feeling the gentle and lovely behavior of Su Rongxue, Xia Rong simply adored her little angel, who would immediately comfort her after she pretended to be wronged.

But she didn't think deeply about what Su Rongxue meant. Logically speaking, a normal person would definitely say "It's wrong to curse," but Su Rongxue said "It's wrong to curse Bai Yu."

This statement may seem perfectly reasonable, but upon closer examination, isn't it just a blatant act of favoritism?

One interpretation is that Xia Rong can criticize others, but she cannot let Bai Yu's words be mixed in.

Xia Rong was so comforted by Su Rongxue that she didn't even think about those details.

"Okay, okay, swearing is wrong, I won't swear anymore, alright? I just can't do anything with you, you soft and sweet girl. Whoever becomes your boyfriend will be laughing in their sleep!"

Upon hearing Xia Rong's words, Su Rongxue subconsciously looked at Bai Yu, who was diligently copying notes, her eyes filled with undisguised anticipation.

If you were to ask her who she most wanted to be her boyfriend, it would definitely be Bai Yu; she only wanted to be his girlfriend.

As a result, Su Rongxue has now begun to openly favor Bai Yu.

Just like the saying goes, "Life is full of suffering, and blatant favoritism is the salvation," there's still much to learn in Chapter 245.

Today wasn't a full day of classes. After the afternoon nap, the first class ended, and as for evening self-study, wasn't that just sitting in the classroom playing?

So compared to yesterday's Black Monday, with classes all day long, today was definitely a much-needed break.

For most male students in a college dormitory, the most likely way to relax is at an internet cafe.

For example, Wen Chiqi and Feng Zhou, two homebodies in Bai Yu's dormitory, like to go online to relax.

While Bai Yu and Li Cheng also enjoy surfing the internet, they don't just do that. They also exercise occasionally. Washing their feet was a pastime from their previous life, and it's not part of this life. At least Bai Yu has reformed.

He can now play sports like basketball, table tennis, badminton, and tennis.

In the afternoon, Su Rongxue was pulled by Xia Rong to say goodbye to Bai Yu before going back.

She still has a lot to learn and understand. In front of Bai Yu, Su Rongxue knew that she was really bad at expressing herself and couldn't say a word about the emotions she wanted to express. So there was still a lot she needed to learn.

Moreover, she has decided to seriously study how to be a girlfriend that her boyfriend likes, so she will go back and consult online.

Of course, if Su Rongxue didn't like Bai Yu, and it was another boy, like her former head of the arts department, Zhang Caiming, would he think Su Rongxue was bad? She couldn't be better!

Unfortunately, Su Rongxue fell in love with Bai Yu, who was unwilling to reciprocate her feelings. In fact, Bai Yu was scheming to make her give up. They were two people from completely different worlds.

Back in her dorm room, Su Rongxue, who rarely turns on her computer, unusually opened her laptop.

She certainly wouldn't openly search for questions like "how to be a good girlfriend" in front of Xia Rong.

She could only go to Bilibili (a Chinese video-sharing website) to watch videos by male content creators analyzing how to determine if a girlfriend is good, to learn or understand the situation.

Even so, Xia Rong felt that Su Rongxue was acting very strangely. This girl would never normally pay attention to these kinds of issues, so why is she watching these kinds of emotional videos now?

"Minor Snow~, it's not even spring yet, are you already feeling romantic and adrift?"

As she said this, Xia Rong immediately hugged Su Rongxue's slender waist and started tickling her.

This made Su Rongxue laugh non-stop, and she kept begging for mercy.

"No, no, stop scratching me~"

"Okay, I'll stop tickling you, but don't believe too much in these things. Many of them are just using the title of 'emotional guru' to promote themselves, and many of them have warped values. Don't learn bad things from them."

Xia Rong's point is absolutely correct. There are too many online emotional battles these days, and much of it is driven by individualism or one-sided genderism.

Xia Rong was indeed exceptionally good to Su Rongxue; she was a true friend and confidante who genuinely cared for Su Rongxue.

After hearing Xia Rong's explanation, Su Rongxue began to ask questions.

"Then...is he right?"

"Here, let me see?"

Goodness, there wasn't a teacher before, but now Su Rongxue has indirectly brought Xia Rong, this teacher, along to verify the authenticity.

When it comes to spoiling someone, Xia Rong really dotes on Su Rongxue, wishing she could treat her like a daughter, but she's also worried that Su Rongxue will be bullied by Bai Yu.

The boys in the class were all very nice to Su Rongxue, but Bai Yu was an oddball. If you say he was playing hard to get, then this was going on for way too long.

Now let's turn our attention to Bai Yu's side—

Given Bai Yu's current right-hand injury, he can forget about playing ball or any strenuous activities; he can't possibly play with only one hand.

However, playing badminton and table tennis is still no problem.

These kinds of events are everywhere; you just need to boldly say "Count me in," and you'll generally be allowed in unless you have prior arrangements or there are too many people.

This kind of thing mainly depends on whether you have the courage to speak up and whether you have a bit of a social butterfly mentality.

This afternoon, Si Yu was playing tennis at the tennis court, dressed in casual sportswear, her long black hair tied into a neat ponytail, simple yet charming.

Her dashing figure and the undeniable curves that she couldn't hide no matter what she wore attracted the attention of countless boys.

Si Yu was playing tennis with a boy who looked quite strong, with arched eyebrows and a square face, giving off a very masculine vibe.

However, his tennis skills were not as refined as Si Yu's, and he would miss the ball after only a few rallies.

"Si Yu, you truly deserve to be the most likely candidate for president of the tennis club. I, Wang Daobo, am completely outmatched by your skills. Hahahaha~"

"No way, after all, you're not a professional tennis player. You're the captain of our school's soccer team. If we're talking about soccer, wouldn't I be even worse than you?"

Si Yu returned the compliment to Wang Daobo, the captain of the school's football team.

These words of praise from everyone else might be interpreted by Wang Daobo, who likes Si Yu, as a sign that Si Yu has feelings for him.

This is a classic example of one of the three great illusions: "She might like me".

Just as that ball ended, Si Yu seemed to have a strange psychological connection with Bai Yu, and subconsciously glanced at the badminton court. It was in that glance that she saw Bai Yu, whose right hand was wrapped in gauze, playing badminton with her left hand.

Upon seeing this scene, Si Yuxin couldn't help but panic. She didn't know what had happened to Bai Yu's right hand; it was wrapped in gauze after she hadn't seen her for a while.

Dropping her tennis racket, Si Yu strode off towards the badminton court next to the basketball court.

Wang Daobo was stunned by this scene. He couldn't understand why Si Yu had suddenly run away.

We agreed on a best-of-three series, with the loser treating everyone. Why did you change your mind now?

Of course, Wang Daobo's idea was that no matter who won or lost, they would have to have a meal together—a sure-fire deal.

Wang Daobo wasn't the only guy who liked Si Yu. There were guys in the basketball team, the tennis club, and the three clubs he knew who liked this mature woman with long, straight black hair, not to mention the others he didn't know.

With Si Yu's figure and looks, plus her cheerful personality, who wouldn't like her?

But Si Yu didn't care about Wang Daobo at the moment; he was only worried about why Bai Yu's hands were wrapped in a thick layer of gauze.

Rushing to the badminton court, Si Yu saw Bai Yu's right wrist wrapped in gauze and her awkward way of playing with her left hand, and felt her heart break.

What happened to Bai Yu while I was away? Why was she injured?

Without thinking twice, Si Yu ran forward, panting heavily, her chest heaving, and called out to Bai Yu in a slightly uneasy voice.

"Bai Yu... what happened to your right hand? Come here quickly so your sister can take a look, hurry!"

The anxious, worried, and panicked voices caused Bai Yu, who already had difficulty catching the ball with his left hand, to pause slightly. In that moment of distraction, he instantly lost the last ball of the match.

Turning to look at Si Yu, who was standing outside the arena with worry in his eyes, Bai Yu's expression froze for a moment.

Because he had no idea when Si Yu arrived.

Chapter 246 Psychological Resilience Needs Improvement

Bai Yu was a little surprised by Si Yu's sudden appearance. After all, he hadn't paid any attention to the tennis courts when he arrived, so he naturally hadn't noticed that Si Yu was playing tennis today.

And he wasn't even playing basketball, so how did Si Yu notice him? Was it just bad luck, or just plain bad luck?

"Senior Siyu, what a coincidence!"

Bai Yu's words had a hint of politeness in them.

For Si Yu, these polite words felt a bit distant, which she didn't quite like.

Of course, what she was more worried about now was why Bai Yu's right wrist was injured.

"Bai Yu, come here quickly, let me see what's wrong with your right hand?"

As Bai Yu was saying this, before she could even approach him, Si Yu had already walked over.

There were boys and girls on the badminton court, but most of the attention was focused on Si Yu, the mature woman with long, straight black hair.

It wasn't just that Si Yu was beautiful; the way she looked at Bai Yu was full of worry and doting, which made many people envious.

Si Yu stepped forward and gently grasped Bai Yu's right hand, not caring about the opinions of those present, and asked with concern.

"Why did you hurt your hand?"

Hearing Si Yu's concerned words, Bai Yu felt that with so many people watching, this girl was still holding his hand without any hesitation. Wasn't that a bit too bold?

Moreover, such things can easily lead to unnecessary misunderstandings at school.

"Let's talk somewhere else; if we're standing on the court, no one can play properly."

As she said this, Bai Yu subconsciously turned around and tried to let go of Si Yu's hand that was holding her.

But Si Yu didn't give him a chance at all, gently stroking Bai Yu's hand as if she cared more about him than if she herself were injured.

This really made Bai Yu quite confused as to why Si Yu was so good to her; she simply couldn't understand it.

If you say it's because he's handsome, that's a really weak reason. After all, he's definitely not the only handsome guy at Beicheng University.

If you're talking about personality and other aspects, Bai Yu feels that he doesn't have a good personality at all. Not counting his previous life, in this life he certainly doesn't seem to be trying to attract girls' attention on purpose.

In short, Bai Yu didn't understand why Si Yu was so good to her. She couldn't figure it out. Was it just because he was a yandere with an attachment complex? Was there no other reason?
