When I woke up, there was no heavy feeling of oppression, and a fragrance in the air.

He was clearly the only one in the bed.

I reached for my phone by the bedside and saw that it was already 7:35.

Bai Ye had originally planned to have a professional class and a hydraulics class on Monday, but the location wasn't far and she could get there quickly after washing up.

But he quickly realized the problem: he wasn't at school, so it took him a little longer than usual!

If we don't hurry, we'll be late.

He quickly got out of bed, dressed, and washed up. After that, he sent a message to Xia Qingyue and left.

After getting off the elevator, Bai Ye hurried towards the entrance of the residential area.

Ye Qingcheng's voice came from the side: "Bai Ye?"

Looking over, Bai Ye saw Ye Qingcheng, dressed in a blue JK uniform with long, straight black hair, standing at a battery charging station not far away.

He was clearly planning to ride his electric scooter to school.

Bai Ye's eyes lit up. Normally, he might not make it in time if he rushed over now, but if he rode an electric scooter, he would still have a chance.

Ye Qingcheng glanced at Bai Ye's hurried appearance: "Going to school?"

Bai Ye hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Um, could you...?"

Ye Qingcheng understood Bai Ye's meaning and did not refuse: "Let's go together, you drive."

"Okay!"

Just as Bai Ye was about to push the electric scooter out, he saw Ye Qingcheng's hand suddenly appear in front of his eyes.

It landed on Bai Ye's face, gently tucking away a strand of hair from her face.

Ye Qingcheng said helplessly, "You were in such a hurry to wash up that you didn't even notice your hair was on your face."

Bai Ye scratched his head: "Haha! Thanks."

Ye Qingcheng shook her head and said with a hint of arrogance, "As my personal photographer, you look too sloppy. Don't go out and say you're my photographer."

Of course, she kept a close eye on Bai Ye's expression as she said this, afraid that she might say something hurtful. She was relieved when she saw that his expression remained unchanged.

Bai Ye said nonchalantly, "There's nothing I can do. What do I need an image for as a photographer? As long as you look good, that's enough."

As he spoke, Bai Ye had already inserted the key and patted the back seat.

Ye Qingcheng blushed slightly, but she was still very happy with Bai Ye's praise.

After she got into the back seat, Bai Ye drove towards the school.

Ye Qingcheng sat behind Bai Ye, gazing at the young man in front of her, and her mood unconsciously improved a bit.

"Hey, are you free tonight?"

"What's wrong?"

Ye Qingcheng's face flushed slightly: "There's a Japanese restaurant that I think is pretty good. I want to go there. I have a coupon on my phone that will be much cheaper. My best friend was supposed to go with me, but she had something come up and couldn't go. The coupon is also about to expire."

Obviously, the actual situation was different from what she said, but Bai Ye was still driving and didn't notice the beautiful scenery behind her.

Otherwise, he would have definitely been able to tell that this arrogant girl behind him wanted to have dinner with him, but was too embarrassed to ask, so she made up an excuse.

Ye Qingcheng pretended not to care and said, "It's okay if you don't want to go. There are plenty of people who want to go with me, so your presence won't make a difference."

Bai Ye's lips twitched. So, I'm just a backup option, huh?

Bai Ye didn't think much of it, after all, there was a proud and arrogant girl behind him, and her words could definitely be understood in reverse.

"I'll treat you to dinner tonight! It'll be a good opportunity to thank you for helping me find a place!"

He agreed, and it just so happened that Bai Ye hadn't eaten much Japanese food besides sushi, so he was curious to try it.

Although Ye Qingcheng was slightly pleased to see him agree, she maintained a cold demeanor on the surface: "Mm!"

She whispered, "Idiot, why are you being so polite?"

Bai Ye asked in confusion, "What did you say?"

I vaguely heard the word "idiot" just now.

Ye Qingcheng rolled her eyes: "It's nothing, just focus on driving."

She put her hands behind her back, feeling a warm glow inside.

You idiot, you don't even have much money yourself, yet you insist on treating me to dinner.

Although she paid Bai Ye a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan, the rent for Bai Ye's house was obviously not cheap, and at his request, his family gave him 1,000 yuan for living expenses, so he had 4,000 yuan a month.

But he estimates that half of it will go to rent, so if Bai Ye treats him to a meal, especially a high-priced Japanese restaurant, his living expenses for the next two weeks will be drastically reduced.

Ye Qingcheng pondered for a moment, wondering if she should find an excuse to slip him some money.

She didn't want to see Bai Ye eating instant noodles every day.

As for whether Bai Ye himself had any savings, Ye Qingcheng didn't think so at all.

From the time she met Bai Ye until now, after talking for so long, she knows that Bai Ye is someone who never skimps on food.

He basically spends all his monthly living expenses on food or games, so getting him to save any money is practically impossible.

So what excuses should I come up with later?

The video received a great response, so should we give him some money as a bonus?

...

Bai Ye was completely unaware that the girl behind him was already worried about his wallet, fearing that he was just putting on a show.

If Bai Ye knew, he would probably be sad for a while.

Is this the kind of image he has in Ye Qingcheng's eyes?

This was the first time Bai Ye had ever gone to school with a girl; it was an experience he had never had before.

Without much thought, at 7:56, Bai Ye stopped his electric scooter at the school's charging station.

After saying goodbye to Ye Qingcheng, Bai Ye hurriedly ran towards the classroom.

I finally arrived at 7:59 and immediately checked in through the learning platform.

He arrived a bit late, and there were only a few seats left, so he could only choose a seat near the back aisle.

After sitting down, I put the book on my lap and then started scrolling through my phone.

This was a professional course, and Bai Ye should have listened attentively, but the teacher's voice was very soft, with a sense of weakness, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.

Bai Ye was sitting in the back and could barely hear anything, and this lesson mainly focused on practical exercises.

The key point is how to use those devices and such. The teacher will demonstrate, so you just need to go and watch when he demonstrates to understand how to assemble and disassemble the device.

After that, everyone goes up to break down the problem according to their student ID number, and then he scores your performance.

The teacher was still showing the PowerPoint presentation, and it was obvious what the people below were doing.

Some people play Naruto, some play shovels, and some play King of Glory. It's just that there's a lot of chaos going on outside the classroom and hardly anyone is paying attention.

Bai Ye silently opened Meituan and ordered breakfast for Xia Qingyue.

I should arrive around 8:40. Xia Qingyue is still asleep; she hasn't replied to the message I sent before coming to school.

Bai Ye: Sister Qingyue, I ordered breakfast for you, remember to eat it.

Since you've taken their money, you should be responsible for arranging their meals.

Although the food he ordered was different from what Bai Ye made himself, he had overslept today and didn't have time to make breakfast.

I guess I'll have to order takeout to make up for it.

He'll have to get up early tomorrow morning.

Cook some hot porridge, serve with some pickled vegetables, and fry some scallion rolls. It's quite delicious in the gradually getting colder weather.
