[Qingqian: Nobody asked you for it when you came to the girls' dormitory?]

【Heading North: Yes】

【Heading North: But my indifferent feelings are a cold and ruthless rejection machine】

[Qingqian: You'd better really be...]

[Heading North: Come downstairs, sister!]

[Qingqian: ?]

[Qingqian: You've arrived?]

【Heading North: Yep!】

[Qingqian: ...You're so fast.]

Lu Yibei lowered the brim of his hat.

Although he was indeed walking quite fast, considering the context, it doesn't seem like the "fast" the female knight-errant was referring to was a good thing.

After meeting up with the female knight, Lu Yibei ignored Brother Jie's loud and boisterous behavior.

He remembered what his mother, Ms. Lu Chaoxi, had once said: "Don't get caught in a self-justification crisis."

Then my mind became perfectly clear...

"Abei."

The crisp sound made Lu Yibei look up, and at the same time, a bottle of purified water was thrown at him.

Lu Yibei caught it, and Ji Qingqian, standing in front of him, looked at him with her hands behind her back. Lu Yibei chuckled:

"Shall we go?"

Ji Qingqian lightly jumped down the steps, and just as she reached Lu Yibei's side, the latter covered her head with a baseball cap.

Ji Qingqian: ?

“Now that you’re so famous, it would be better if you kept a facade, otherwise rumors could damage your reputation,” Lu Yibei said.

"What kind of reputation could I possibly have?" Ji Qingqian pouted.

Lu Yibei said in plain language: "Okay, actually the sun hasn't completely set yet, but I was afraid you'd feel too hot."

"That's more like it..."

Ji Qingqian adjusted the elastic band of her hat; Lu Yibei's hat was a men's style and a bit too big for her. She suddenly remembered something:

"By the way, I haven't washed my hair today. It's soaked in sweat, so it probably smells bad."

"...Give it back to me!"

"No~"
