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

After the meal was finished, Qing Siling went to pay the bill. When Li Cheng and the others went out for some fresh air, Murong Chun took advantage of the fact that Bai Yu was alone and approached him with a smile, asking him a question.

"Bai Yu, do you know my sister Murong Liyue?"

Chapter 257 Murong Chun's Thoughts

Upon hearing Murong Chun's words, Bai Yu wondered if there was any hidden meaning behind his question, but he still answered truthfully.

"We know each other, and we're even in the same club, so what, Chun-ge?"

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Murong Chun smiled and put her arm around his shoulder, saying in a somewhat irreverent manner.

"Do you... have any feelings for my sister?"

As he said this, Murong Chun raised an eyebrow at Bai Yu, as if he would agree to the marriage the moment Bai Yu said she had an idea.

However, Bai Yu really doesn't dare to have any thoughts about Murong Liyue, and he can't have any thoughts about her either. It seems he's going to disappoint Murong Chun.

"No, we're just friends at most. I have no feelings for your sister, Murong Liyue, really."

Hearing Bai Yu's words, Murong Chun was a little surprised. Logically speaking, how could Bai Yu not be interested in his sister? Was his sister's charm not strong enough?

Moreover, it was obvious to Murong Chun last time that his sister's behavior towards Bai Yu was not as simple as he had said.

"Isn't that right? My sister is one of the top beauties at Beicheng University, yet you're not even tempted?"

Murong Chun was clearly a little skeptical of Bai Yu's words, but what Bai Yu said was actually the truth.

"If it's one or two, then it's even less my turn. If I had to say what it is, we'd be friends at most, right? Nothing else. After all, I also have a girl I like."

Bai Yu was telling the truth in the first part, but the part about having a girl he liked was clearly a lie.

However, what Bai Yu wanted was to dispel Murong Chun's suspicion that she had a relationship with Murong Liyue.

At this point, Murong Chun actually began to believe Bai Yu's lies. After all, he also thought of a possibility: that Murong Liyue was deliberately going against her mother, which was why she was acting so intimately with Bai Yu.

This possibility is not nonexistent, but very high, since only her younger sister, Murong Liyue, dared to go against her mother.

"Oh, I thought you were from the same school or even the same club. If you like my sister, and you call me Brother Chun, why wouldn't I help you out?"

As he said this, Murong Chun raised his strange eyebrows at Bai Yu again, looking as if he would immediately act as matchmaker if Bai Yu asked for help.

However, Bai Yu really didn't have that thought, nor could she possibly have that thought.

"Thank you, Brother Chun. I'm an honest and upright person. I wouldn't dare to lay a finger on a goddess like your sister who's so aloof. I prefer well-behaved and cheerful girls."

Bai Yu was making things up, but how could Murong Chun know whether what Bai Yu said was true or false?

"It's alright. I think you're quite pleasing to the eye, and you're no worse looking than me. Wouldn't it be a perfect match if my sister introduced you to her? If you don't like my sister's type, that's fine too. I'll have Liu Ziqi introduce you to beauties from the art academy. They can come home anytime, anywhere. You get what I mean?"

Goodness, it was all so serious at first, but how did it start to take on a completely different meaning later on?

As the eight people left the farmhouse and entered the open-air hot spring together, Bai Yu discovered a very unbelievable problem.

That is, Qing Siling was fine when he didn't take off his clothes, but when he did, his entire back was covered in tattoos. However, his smooth, jade-like skin really didn't look like a man's. If he had a bit more chest, he would definitely be a woman.

"Damn, Qing Siling, I never knew you had tattoos before. Is that a small blue dragon or a big white tiger?"

Bai Yu looked at Qing Siling's back and asked this question in a teasing tone.

When Bai Yu saw the tattoo on his back, Qing Siling seemed a little embarrassed and turned around with a smile, saying...

"Well... I actually got this tattoo just for fun when I was young and didn't know any better. I even went to learn how to get a tattoo, but I was just being naive. Don't worry about it. It's hard to remove anyway, so I just waited for it to come off."

With that, Qing Siling put on her swimming trunks and stepped into the natural hot spring at the top of Beicheng Mountain.

However, Bai Yu didn't really care about Qing Si Ling's tattoos, since tattoos weren't a big deal these days.

Qing Siling's family is no ordinary family. The last time I saw his father, he was also a dragon with long arms, like a mafia boss. Maybe like father, like son.

By bringing Bai Yu along, Qing Siling had barely achieved her goal. At least she had given Murong Chun, Liu Ziqi, and Liu Lu some impression of Bai Yu, so that they could hang out more often and it would be easier to build a closer relationship.

Of course, Qing Siling wouldn't invite Bai Yu to any improper activities, because that would be unfair to her younger sister, Qing Sisi.

Soaking in a hot spring is just about chatting while soaking, what else can you do? It's not like it's a mixed bath, right?

Just as Bai Yu finished soaking in the hot spring and parted ways with Qing Siling and the others, he and Li Cheng ran into Qing Sisi at the school gate.

From afar, Bai Yu could see the girl waving and jumping around at him, looking incredibly happy.

"Senior, come here quickly~"

Standing not far from the school gate, Bai Yu suddenly didn't want to go back to the dormitory, but Li Cheng and the other two guys ignored him completely, walked over to Qing Sisi with smiles, and even greeted her politely.

After all, their brother, who is also young and handsome, treated them to dinner and a hot spring today. How could they not be polite?

Despite their politeness, these three guys went into the school on their own and ignored Bai Yu. What does that mean?

Actually, it's just that Li Cheng and the other two don't want to pay attention to Bai Yu. They've already found a beautiful girl like Qing Sisi, so why are they getting involved? Are they just looking for trouble, or do they feel jealous enough?

Seeing Li Cheng and his two companions already entering the school gate, Bai Yu clearly exchanged a glance with Qing Sisi, but pretended not to see them and turned around to try to go around to the back gate of the school before going in.

How could Qing Sisi tolerate this?

The girl puffed out her cheeks in anger, stomped her little feet, and chased after him.

Taking three steps at a time, Qing Sisi quickly caught up with Bai Yu. With swift eyes and hands, she grabbed Bai Yu's hand, pouting and saying in a wronged tone.

"Senior, why do you leave as soon as you see her? Did you do something to betray me and are you feeling guilty?"

Speechless, Bai Yu was truly speechless at Qing Sisi's words. What did she mean by saying that she had done something to wrong her? Even if she had done something, it had nothing to do with this girl, right?

There was absolutely no relationship between the two of them. The "senior" and "junior" titles were just her self-proclaimed ones. (Chapter 258: Pretending to be a Gentleman)

"What do you mean I'm guilty? Even if it's Saturday, are you not going to evening self-study?"

Bai Yu has been using the same excuse about attending evening self-study sessions with Qing Sisi. To put it bluntly, he's hoping to persuade Qing Sisi to go back home and stop bothering him by using the excuse of her attending evening self-study sessions.

However, it seems that Bai Yu is destined to be disappointed this time, because Qing Sisi did not skip evening self-study on purpose, but there was no evening self-study available at the school today.

"Hehe, senior, I don't have evening self-study today, otherwise why would I come to see you?"

Hearing Qing Sisi's words, Bai Yu was speechless. If this girl wanted to find him, did she need a reason like whether or not she had to attend evening self-study?

Several times she came to see me without attending evening self-study, and this time she even had the nerve to say that she came to see me because there was no evening self-study. She just made it up, she really made it up.

"Come on, why are you coming to see me when there's no evening self-study? Do you have nothing better to do than skip evening self-study? Aren't you already in the second semester of your senior year? Your studies and revision are all done, you're sure to get into Beicheng University!"

Bai Yu's fatal series of questions made Qing Sisi, who was already at a rebellious age, very unhappy to hear words that sounded like parents urging her to go to school.

"Oh, senior, I finally have some free time. I don't usually have much free time. I'm skipping evening self-study tonight, so this is the only time I have. I have to go back to school tomorrow."

Seeing Qing Sisi's slightly aggrieved expression, Bai Yu decided to cut to the chase.

"Speak, what do you want from me?"

Upon hearing this, Qing Sisi's expression immediately changed from aggrieved to playful, and she said with a beaming smile.

"Look, senior, let's go see the latest fantasy blockbuster, it's really good, let's go, let's go?"

Looking at the record on her phone that she had already bought two tickets for the latest movie, Bai Yu felt helpless about this girl's habit of acting first and asking questions later.

Of course, it's impossible for Bai Yu to go, but he did ask Qing Sisi what kind of boys she likes and dislikes during the last Chinese New Year.

Qing Sisi answered this question very seriously. She likes straightforward and unpretentious boys and dislikes boys who pretend to be gentlemen.

So Bai Yu has to consider putting on a fake gentlemanly act tonight?

This girl said she likes straightforward and domineering guys like me, so if I act a bit pretentious, gentlemanly, and gentle, wouldn't that lower her approval rating?

I'll do it whenever I think of Bai Yu. I didn't do it last time because I had just asked this girl. If I had just started doing it, it would have been too much of a performance.

This time it's different; at least Qing Sisi won't find out so easily.

And even if it fails, it doesn't matter much. After all, it's just watching a movie. The girl has to go back to school tomorrow, so the plan still needs to be carried out.

"Alright, I don't have anything important to do anyway, so it won't hurt to go with you once. It's still quite cold tonight, so you should wear more clothes."

Looking at Qing Sisi, who was wearing a knee-length skirt, a jacket tied around her waist, and a black shirt with a bow on her upper body, she certainly looked very youthful. I just don't know if this girl really cares about her style or if she doesn't care about the warmth at all. Doesn't she feel cold?

For Bai Yu, at least for now, he hasn't taken off his long johns, which are practically an essential part of his daily life!

Qing Sisi had no idea what Bai Yu was thinking. When she heard her domineering senior say something like that, asking if she was cold, a look of surprise flashed involuntarily across her eyes.

"Is it cold at night? If it is, senior, hug me. I'm so warm~"

With her arms outstretched playfully, Qing Sisi really gave off the impression that Bai Yu could hug her for warmth anytime, anywhere.

However, Bai Yu could not possibly carry out such a behavior. Firstly, in Bai Yu's eyes, Qing Sisi was a pervert, and secondly, he needed to act like a gentleman, but he had to pretend to be one.

"I'm not cold, I just thought you might be cold since you're dressed so lightly. Let's go, shall we take a taxi there, or is it the movie theater not far from the school?"

Bai Yu's speaking style was clearly different from before, and Qing Sisi also vaguely noticed this change.

Because in the past, Bai Yu had always been very impolite when talking to her, and it could even be said that he showed no tenderness or consideration for her whatsoever.

But Qing Sisi just happens to like Bai Yu's domineering nature. It gives her a feeling of being bound and disciplined, a feeling that many people don't like, but she does.

Bai Yu noticed Qing Sisi's strange psychology the first time she met her in this life.

It's not surprising, so he needs to act less domineering in order to win people over.

"It's the movie theater closest to Beicheng University. It would take us about ten or twenty minutes to walk there, but it would be much faster by taxi."

Why would someone need to take a taxi for something like this? If Bai Yu didn't need to act like a gentleman, he would have walked without hesitation, saving every penny he could, and there was absolutely no need to take a taxi since it wasn't that far.

"Let's take a taxi then. It's chilly with the wind blowing late at night, and you might get cold later."

As Bai Yu said this, she even took out her phone to call a taxi, a behavior that Qing Sisi found strange.

Logically speaking, my senior shouldn't be that considerate. No, it shouldn't be said that he would be considerate, but he definitely wouldn't be that chivalrous.

Looking up at Bai Yu beside her, who was looking down at her phone and trying to hail a taxi, Qing Sisi's bright eyes were filled with confusion and bewilderment.

She reached out and brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, and then saw the girl reach out and touch Bai Yu's forehead.

She suspected that Bai Yu might not be feeling well today, otherwise why would her behavior seem different and strange than usual?

The moment Bai Yu's forehead was touched by Qing Sisi's soft, smooth little hand, she instinctively flinched away, raised her eyes, frowned slightly, and asked her in confusion.

Why are you touching my forehead?

Seeing Bai Yu's puzzled expression, Qing Sisi could feel the warmth from her hand and there was no sign of illness, so she asked Bai Yu the same question.
