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

But that's how the world works; tricks win people's hearts. If you give someone who likes you hope, they will really fight for that hope.

Scumbags and scumbags are all the same. Luckily, Ju Qing isn't the kind of scumbag who dates a boyfriend and then goes around fishing for other women. Otherwise, Bai Yu definitely wouldn't have just taken advantage of her for free; he would have ruined her completely.

Of course, at the same time, Bai Yu was already almost at the school gate. The place where she and Ju Qing went to eat grilled fish was not far from the school gate, and they arrived in no time.

Bai Yu didn't care how Ju Qing and the boy named Tong Ming would talk.

Anyway, he's guaranteed to make a profit from this meal, so why bother with all that other stuff?

I entered the school gate in a good mood, and it took me ten or twenty minutes to reach my dormitory.

Li Cheng, Wen Chiqi, and Feng Zhou had already returned to their dorm room, but all three of them were quietly scrolling through short videos on their phones with their heads down, making the dorm room unusually quiet.

"What time is it? Still watching videos? Get ready, it's almost time for roll call."

As she said this, Bai Yu plopped down on the spot under her bed.

Seeing Bai Yu leaning back on the desk with her legs spread wide, Feng Zhou, the young master Feng, couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.

"Hey Bai, who was that girl who called you earlier? She was pretty. Do you have a girlfriend?"

Upon hearing Feng Zhou's question, Bai Yu glanced at him, waved her hand, and said with a smile.

"What kind of girlfriend would I want? We all agreed that our dorm should be neat and tidy. If I have a girlfriend, would I still be Bai Yu from 404?"

Bai Yu's words were decisive and resolute, spoken without the slightest hesitation.

Of course, he was speaking from the heart. The thought of him dating a girlfriend now sends chills down his spine and makes him feel extremely uncomfortable. The psychological trauma he has is not something that can be resolved in six months, and he may never be able to shake it off.

Let alone actually dating someone, I wouldn't even dare to think about it normally.

But who would believe such a thing if it were said to Li Cheng and his two companions?

"No way, Bai Yu, you know so many beautiful women, and you really haven't hooked up with a single one?"

Wen Chiqi asked this question with some disbelief.

In response to this, Bai Yu said that he really hadn't hooked up with anyone. Apart from Ju Qing, whom he deliberately played with, he really wouldn't dare to hook up with his other ex-girlfriends.

"It's not what you think. I swear, I absolutely have no girlfriend, and it's impossible for me to have one. Otherwise, may I be struck by lightning, die a horrible death, or be torn apart by five horses."

Making an oath is as easy as drinking water, and since he genuinely believed it at that moment, his vow was exceptionally firm.

"Come on, swearing oaths in the 21st century is like farting. Let's go, time for roll call."

As he said this, Li Cheng got up and walked towards the restroom. Wen Chiqi and Feng Zhou also got up to pack their things and prepare to leave. Obviously, no one believed Bai Yu's words.

Sunday evenings are just for roll call and attendance; there's no evening self-study, so we get there quickly and come back quickly.

Bai Yu felt that she had a reasonably satisfactory day this Sunday.

After all, it would have been perfect if I hadn't accompanied Su Rongxue to register for clubs in the afternoon.

But good days always pass extremely quickly, and on Monday the next day, Bai Yu experienced what suffering truly meant.

The pain wasn't just from attending classes, but also from the pain caused by Murong Liyue's schemes.

Originally, the morning was full of classes, and the afternoon was also full of classes. That's not all, but after class, there was still evening self-study, right?

But it was on that Black Monday evening after self-study that Bai Yu ran into Murong Liyue on that large lawn.

It was a chance encounter for him, but for Murong Liyue, it was not a chance encounter at all; she had deliberately waited for Bai Yu there.

She didn't text Bai Yu as usual, nor did she make any phone calls; she just waited there.

When Bai Yu saw Murong Liyue, she subconsciously paused for a moment.

This was his instinctive reaction, a reaction stemming from psychological trauma; he subconsciously felt an urge to turn and run away.

His intuition told him that something seemed off about Murong Liyue's sudden appearance.

Of course, Bai Yu quickly dismissed this intuition, because when had Murong Liyue ever seemed right?

"Bai Yu, come here for me."

A clear, cool, mature voice came from Murong Liyue's mouth, sounding completely devoid of emotion.

But Bai Yu's first reaction was, as always, to refuse directly.

"Just say what's wrong. I'm very tired and want to go back to sleep."

Bai Yu did refuse, but it was also true that he was really tired. A full day of classes, plus the fact that he couldn't skip them, had left him mentally exhausted.

Upon hearing this, Murong Liyue completely ignored Li Cheng and the other two beside Bai Yu, reached out and pulled him toward the girls' dormitory, her tone unusually tinged with grievance.

"Are you upset that I asked you to come here?"

Hearing the usually domineering Murong Liyue speak in a wronged tone surprised and surprised Bai Yu.

Why is this girl suddenly acting all wronged?

Chapter 277 Sense of Security

"No, I've been in class all day. Just tell me what's wrong. Where are you taking me?"

Bai Yu didn't know why Murong Liyue sounded aggrieved, but although she said she didn't want to be pulled by her, she didn't resist at all and let the girl pull her along.

Do you have a girl you like?

Murong Liyue didn't beat around the bush and asked Bai Yu this question as they walked.

This time, the girl's tone returned to its usual cold and questioning tone.

However, Bai Yu found this question very puzzling. When had he ever revealed that he had a girl he liked? Why would Murong Liyue ask such a question?

Although Bai Yu didn't actually have a girl he liked, since Murong Liyue had asked, he figured he had to lie about it. What if he said he did have a girl he liked, and then she would get angry and stop bothering him?

If you think of Bai Yu, just do it. People need to have the ability to execute decisions decisively.

Whether I like a girl or not shouldn't concern you much, right?

Although these words were spoken lightly, they were tantamount to stabbing Murong Liyue in the heart.

(Is there someone you like who has nothing to do with you? Nothing to do with you?)

In an instant, only one sentence filled Murong Liyue's mind: she was now making somewhat irrational judgments.

Already unable to find peace of mind due to constantly worrying about this matter, coupled with her mother's unreasonable arrangements, Murong Liyue was under immense psychological pressure. Now, she felt as if she were suddenly about to lose everything.

At first, she never thought about having too much. Perhaps she once thought about freedom, but after meeting Bai Yu, she gradually changed.

Freedom became the white rain, and the white rain became her emotional refuge, the only place where she could feel free to express her true self.

But now even Bai Yu is going to betray me? Then... what's the point of living like this? Money? What's the use of that? I still can't even get Bai Yu.

If you can't have something, either destroy it or never give it to someone else.

An extremely dangerous feeling arose in Murong Liyue's heart, but on her face, Murong Liyue was as calm as a still lake, so calm that it was abnormal.

"It's not a big deal...it probably really isn't, but I need to talk to you about something, so come over here first."

As she said this, Murong Liyue tightened her grip on Bai Yu's hand, and for a moment Bai Yu felt as if the girl's hand was trembling.

It might be my imagination, or I might be overthinking it, but my tone remained aloof.

Whether she wanted to or not didn't matter. What Bai Yu noticed was a benefit: after he revealed his relationship with Murong Liyue, the girl suddenly became less domineering and avoided the topic. Could it be that she was starting to give up?

Thinking about this, Bai Yu suddenly felt that she might have checked the almanac today and that good things should be happening to her.

As for what Murong Liyue wanted to see him about, who knows what it was about? He might as well go. Anyway, it's in the school, what's there to be afraid of?

"If there's anything you need to say, you can say it here if you can. There's no need to go through all that trouble."

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Murong Liyue did not respond. Instead, she pulled him along and quickened her pace.

Before long, he brought Bai Yu to the girls' dormitory building.

Once they arrived at the girls' dormitory, Bai Yu certainly wouldn't just follow Murong Liyue inside.

But Murong Liyue didn't think that way and continued to pull Bai Yu inside.

Some of the girls coming and going were surprised by Murong Liyue's actions.

Of course, it's not strange for boys to enter the main gate of the girls' dormitory building, since the girls' dormitory area is like a residential complex with several buildings next to each other.

It's perfectly fine to come in and take a walk. It's a public place, and there's even a warehouse inside for picking up packages. It's not that you can't come in.

Of course, once you enter the building, things are different; males are not allowed inside.

But Murong Liyue insisted on pulling Bai Yu inside the building.

How could Bai Yu not follow along without remaining indifferent at a time like this?

"Hey, hey, club president, you're just dragging me into the girls' dormitory area, fine, but going upstairs is definitely not allowed. What if the dorm supervisor catches us?"

What Bai Yu said was true, but what Murong Liyue said next surprised Bai Yu.

"I have a room to myself on the fifth floor. There's an elevator, and the dorm supervisor knows about it, so she won't interfere. Let's go."

Isn't that audacious? Perhaps in the entire Beicheng University, only Murong Liyue dares to openly enter the boys' dormitory and even openly bring boys into the girls' dormitory.

Even if Murong Liyue has her own room, Bai Yu still wouldn't go there.

Who knows what this girl is up to? If I go up there, I'll be in big trouble.

"No, I'm not going. If anything comes up or you need anything, I can wait here. There's really no need to go up."

Hearing Bai Yu's words that he had no intention of going up with her, Murong Liyue gave him a deep look, then slowly released her hand. Although her tone was still cold, what she said surprised Bai Yu.

"I need your help to move some things. I'm only asking you, and these are my personal belongings. I'd be bothering you if you didn't help."

As she said this, for the first time ever, Murong Liyue turned her head and ignored Bai Yu, choosing to walk into the dormitory building.

For a moment, Bai Yuren was a little dumbfounded. This was the first time Murong Liyue had ever been so cold towards him.

In the past, wouldn't they have forced me to go upstairs, or used various threats to force me to do so?

Now this...

However, Bai Yu quickly realized the reason: it must be the effect of her previous statement that liking any girl had nothing to do with Murong Liyue.

People tend to think positively. Although he felt a strange sense of loss that Murong Liyue was no longer bothering him, compared to his life, this sense of loss was nothing.

"Don't go, president. I'll help you move your things as a way of repaying your kindness by treating me to a meal. This is only for this once. Next time, you should ask a girl to help you."
