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

A surprised voice rang out, and the door was opened by Su Rongxue the next moment.

The first thing that came into view was Su Rongxue, who was still wearing that light pink sweatshirt, except that one of her feet was wearing a black over-the-knee sock, while the other foot was bare.

The way she was rubbing her sleepy eyes clearly meant she had just woken up; no wonder she hadn't replied to my messages before.

"You stupid little girl, why aren't you going to evening self-study?"

Bai Yu's tone was a bit harsh, perhaps due to a moment of relaxation after being anxious.

Startled by the sudden reprimand, Su Rongxue shrank her cute head and replied with a pitiful expression.

If you don't come... I'll wait for you...

His words still carried a hint of stubbornness.

"What are you waiting for me for? Don't you know... you'll get points deducted for not coming to evening self-study?"

"Know..."

"You know that, so why aren't you coming?"

Mingming Yu looked very angry, but Su Rongxue could feel his deep concern.

If Bai Yu wasn't worried about him, she wouldn't have needed to come looking for him.

"I have a surprise for you, you...you come in first..."

Ignoring Bai Yu's scolding, Su Rongxue reached out and pulled her inside.

She closed the door, ran barefoot through the bathroom, and came to a small round table. Pointing to the cake on the table with her little finger, she said shyly and nervously.

"Happy birthday..."

Standing at the door, somewhat wary and not intending to step forward, Bai Yu was completely stunned the moment the girl pointed to the birthday cake on the table and said "Happy Birthday."

Happy birthday?

To be honest, Bai Yu herself doesn't quite remember the exact date of her birthday, and has never seriously tried to remember it.

After all, he had always celebrated his birthday at school since he started school, so he gradually stopped caring about it and stopped making a conscious effort to remember it.

Furthermore, the lunar calendar differs from the Gregorian calendar every year, making it even harder to remember.

But the surprise Su Rongxue promised turned out to be her own birthday, which she had forgotten?

Standing in front of the table, she looked visibly reserved, her round, adorable little toes even slightly curled up due to nervousness.

"Hey, are you really a stupid little girl?"

Bai Yu cursed, but the emotion of being touched in her heart was clearly not what she meant.

Even he himself doesn't remember his own birthday, yet this girl actually knows it and even prepared a surprise for him. What kind of silly and adorable girl is she?

"Bai Yu, happy birthday..."

As she said this, Su Rongxue turned around and looked for the gift she had bought for Bai Yu on the sofa behind her. Then, she took a square gift box, walked barefoot to Bai Yu, and handed it to her with a blushing face.

"Gift..."

The gifts didn't matter at that moment; what mattered was the girl's heartfelt sentiment.

"Thank you."

Bai Yu felt that it had been a long time since she had said "thank you" in a proper way, especially to Su Rongxue.

Looking at Su Rongxue, whose clothes were a little disheveled from just waking up and whose hair was slightly messy, Bai Yu found her exceptionally adorable at that moment.

"You're welcome...."

After saying that, Su Rongxue turned around and ran back to start unpacking the cake box, which wasn't very big but was beautifully decorated.

"Did you prepare all of these by yourself?"

Bai Yu asked somewhat uncertainly, but Su Rongxue nodded obediently in response.

"Yeah, I ordered it from the rice cake shop when I went back to school yesterday..."

"It's a cake shop, not an electric cake shop."

"Ah! It's...it's electricity, the cake shop..."

If Bai Yu had to name the cutest girl in his mind at this moment, it would definitely be Su Rongxue.

She is so cute and considerate that it's hard to guard against her, and you might even get the feeling that even the most frozen heart would melt into a pool of warm water if you met her.

"One, two, three, four..."

After unwrapping the cake, Su Rongxue carefully began to insert the candles, counting them softly as if she were afraid of inserting too many or too few.

Looking at her adorable, fair little foot with one bare foot and the other wearing an over-the-knee sock, this girl probably didn't even realize she was only wearing one sock.

Stepping forward, bending down to pick up a sock that had fallen to the side of the sofa, Bai Yu's annoyed voice rang out in the room.

"Put on your socks and shoes. Don't you feel cold going barefoot?"

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Su Rongxue looked down at her small feet and realized that she wasn't wearing shoes or socks. She nodded shyly, took a sock from Bai Yu's hand, and put it on.

After putting on her socks and shoes, Su Rongxue went to the bathroom to wash her hands. When she came out, she pointed to a chair next to the table and said to Bai Yu somewhat nervously.

"Sit here, I'll...sing you a birthday song..."

After saying that, Su Rongxue actually sang a birthday song for Bai Yu with great nervousness. She really looked like a silly little girl, but she was so cute and lovable.

"Su Rongxue, honestly, I've been so mean to you, and you're still so good to me? Are you stupid?"

Bai Yu looked at Su Rongxue's rosy cheeks and asked her this question.

But Su Rongxue gave him an answer without any hesitation.

"I know you...are very gentle..."

“I’m not gentle at all; in fact, I’m a real bad guy, the kind of villain you think is the worst.”

Whether Bai Yu was joking or recounting her past life, she said this.

But Su Rongxue suddenly walked behind Bai Yu, reached out her delicate white hand to cover his eyes, and whispered something.

"Then...then I like bad guys, bad guys...make a wish..."

Feeling Su Rongxue's warm and smooth little hands covering his eyes, he thought, "This girl is so gentle and cute, what should I do?"

"Those are things only children believe in. I've never had a wish come true since I was a child."

Hearing Bai Yu's words, Su Rongxue became a little anxious. She tiptoed and said in a somewhat anxious tone.

"No, you have to make a wish, it will definitely come true..."

"You're really stupid."

While she verbally criticized Su Rongxue for being stupid, Bai Yu secretly began to make a wish.

For him, his wish was simply "to have a bright future, with safety as the top priority."

Just as Bai Yu finished making her wish, she felt Su Rongxue's soft, delicate body sit on her lap, her head buried in her chest.

"what are you doing?"

"Let me hug you... You don't even remember your birthday, you're the stupid one..."

The soft, slightly aggrieved voice made Bai Yu's attempt to pull the girl away stop in mid-air.

Even though I don't remember it myself, and I don't care at all, this girl is still feeling wronged on my behalf. Am I stupid, or is she stupid? What a silly little girl!

Chapter 367 The Unhappiness of Saying One Thing and Meaning Another (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"I've said it before, no matter how good you are to me, it's useless. I'm a heartless person, a cold-blooded animal."

"No...you're talking nonsense...I know you're very gentle..."

Hearing Su Rongxue's soft voice nestled in his arms, he realized that this girl was still so understanding.

Bai Yu sometimes really wished that she could be a little disgusted with her, otherwise she was already starting to lose her guard!

"Huh? What's this hard thing?"

Just as Bai Yu was feeling Su Rongxue's soft body sitting on his lap and hugging him, a sentence from the girl and the gripping action in her hand suddenly made him shudder. Su Rongxue was holding the wooden stick that was stuck in his waist!

Remembering the weapon he still carried, he didn't hesitate for long. He reached out, took out the wooden stick, and threw it aside. Then, the sound of the wooden stick hitting the ground rang out.

"Oh, it's just a stick, for self-defense."

Seeing Bai Yu suddenly pull out a wooden stick from his waist and throw it out, Su Rongxue's eyes flashed with surprise, but it quickly turned into joy, and she obediently snuggled into Bai Yu's arms.

She felt that Bai Yu must have carried the wooden stick because she was worried about her. Sure enough, Bai Yu was very gentle, and she felt very safe in Bai Yu's arms.

However, the kind-hearted Su Rongxue was clearly wrong about this. In fact, Bai Yu brought this to fight her, but how could he say that?

Feeling Su Rongxue snuggling against him like a kitten with her eyes half-closed, this girl used to say she would take care of him. Judging from how much she liked to rely on him, if she really agreed, it would probably be more like he would be the one taking care of her. Although that might not be so bad... cough cough, what am I thinking!

"Stop hugging me, let go! The candles on this cake haven't been blown out yet. If you don't blow them out now, your wish won't come true."

Bai Yu herself had previously said that she didn't believe in birthday wishes, which are something only children believe in, but now she's saying something like this.

People are indeed fickle. Bai Yu herself didn't realize that she, who always deliberately kept a distance from Su Rongxue in the past, seemed to be spoiling the girl today.

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Su Rongxue remained as obedient and well-behaved as ever. After giving a soft "hmm," she gave Bai Yu a final, tight hug before reluctantly parting ways.

Seeing Su Rongxue get off her lap and stand obediently, Bai Yu took a deep breath and blew out all the candles at once.

But after the candle was blown out, what Su Rongxue said left people unsure whether to laugh or cry.

"Eating cake...it's all for you..."

Pointing to a cake the size of a whole washbasin, the girl didn't even bother to cut it, giving it all to Bai Yu to enjoy alone.

"Holy crap, you're such a stupid little girl. You're not going to cut that big cake, are you just going to hug it and eat it? Besides, I don't like cake, you can eat more of it yourself."

After saying that, Bai Yu picked up a plastic knife and began cutting the cake.

Su Rongxue has never refuted Bai Yu's insults, calling her a stupid little girl, mainly because she doesn't dare to, fearing she'll be yelled at.

Although Bai Yu seems to be gentler with her now than before, she's still afraid of being scolded; the thought of Bai Yu being fierce is still quite frightening...

"Here, I'll just have this one piece; the rest is yours!"
