The sunlight was blinding, baking the earth.

Bai Ye seemed to no longer feel the heat, and simply walked forward with her head down.

They had already passed the campus without stopping at all.

A self-deprecating smile played on his lips.

Even though I've gradually forgotten her existence, some feelings still linger deep in my heart, and I can't let go of them.

Arriving near the bridge, Bai Ye went down the stairs and stood under the bridge, looking at the river in front of him. He stopped and sat on the lawn, gazing indifferently at the calm lake surface.

Before I knew it, I was lying on the lawn, and the gentle breeze gradually soothed my heart.

When he's in a bad mood, he likes to be alone, quietly watching the lake or beautiful scenery without being disturbed.

The sun was shining brightly, but the shadows under the bridge completely blocked him out, making him feel no heat, and a slight breeze carried a coolness.

...

In a daze, Bai Ye felt his body being pushed and vaguely opened his eyes.

What came into view was a face so beautiful it defied description.

Bai Ye was stunned; the fragrance he smelled made him unable to distinguish whether he was in reality or in paradise.

The girl was startled by Bai Ye's blatant stare and quickly stood up.

Ye Qingcheng looked at Bai Ye with a wary expression. She had just returned from shopping when she happened to pass by and saw a familiar face lying motionless on the grass. She came to check on him and, seeing Bai Ye lying there, assumed he had fainted.

She was just thinking that if she couldn't wake him up, she should call 120.

After all, who would sleep alone on the lawn these days?

Moreover, there were other things nearby, so it's very likely that she suddenly fainted.

Bai Ye came to her senses, but was still somewhat dazed.

"Why are you lying there sleeping? I thought you were going to die on the spot. I was about to call 120." Ye Qingcheng rolled her eyes at him.

Bai Ye scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "Sorry, I just fell asleep while lying down."

Bai Ye stood up, checked his watch, and saw that it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, with one hour left before he had to start work.

Luckily, Ye Qingcheng woke him up; otherwise, he would have been docked pay if he missed his work time.

Bai Ye thanked him, saying, "Thank you for waking me up."

Ye Qingcheng's lips moved slightly, and she whispered, "I should be the one thanking you!"

"What?" Bai Ye asked again, but the woman's voice was too soft for him to hear.

"It's nothing, I have to go now!" Ye Qingcheng's face was a little flushed for some reason. She turned her head in a fluster and then quickened her pace.

Bai Ye was a little puzzled. Looking at the woman's back, he picked up the watermelon and snacks on the ground and walked behind her.

Ye Qingcheng walked very fast, leading Bai Ye by more than ten meters. Bai Ye wasn't in a hurry, since the school wasn't far away and it would only take five minutes at most. Besides, he could just eat instant noodles and drink water for dinner.

Walking slowly behind, Bai Ye kept looking at the figure in front of him, unable to look away.

Ye Qingcheng was tall, about 1.7 meters, and was dressed in a white shirt, a purple JK skirt, white stockings, and black chunky Mary Jane shoes, exuding a unique charm.

To be honest, she truly deserves to be called the school beauty; she's beautiful from both her front and back views.

Bai Ye's lecherous tendencies suddenly kicked in; after all, it would be crazy not to look at beautiful women.

Moreover, he was openly peeking from behind, so as long as she didn't turn around, she wouldn't be able to notice.

Just as Bai Ye was holding this thought, Ye Qingcheng suddenly turned around and looked at him.

Their eyes met for a moment, and Bai Ye was momentarily embarrassed, while Ye Qingcheng was also startled by Bai Ye's direct gaze and quickly turned around and quickened her pace.

Ye Qingcheng's face flushed. She had originally planned to turn around and thank Bai Ye properly, since Bai Ye had saved her yesterday, but when she looked into Bai Ye's eyes, she suddenly panicked.

He muttered under his breath, "You old lecher!"

She decided to thank him properly next time.

Bai Ye's face also flushed red; he'd been caught peeking at someone.

Bai Ye was so embarrassed that she almost had a stroke.

Bai Ye picked up her phone to distract herself.

"I've really lost face now," Bai Ye said with a wry smile.

While scrolling through his phone in frustration, he casually opened his friends list and saw that someone had added him.

Bai Ye was stunned when he saw the name Ye Qingcheng on the message. He then secretly glanced at the woman in front of him.

I'm a little confused as to why she added him as a thank you?

Bai Ye clicked "agree".

Meanwhile, Ye Qingcheng's phone vibrated.

After seeing the message, Ye Qingcheng unconsciously glanced at Bai Ye behind her, but Bai Ye was looking at his phone and didn't notice her.

white night:?

Ye Qingcheng hesitated for a moment, then decided to thank him directly.

In real life, she would feel embarrassed to say thank you, but online she could skip that step.

Even though they were only a dozen meters apart.

Ye Qingcheng: Thank you for helping me yesterday. I heard about it from the dormitory supervisor. Thank you.

Bai Ye looked at the woman in front of him in confusion. She was right in front of him, why did she need to use her phone to chat?

However, Bai Ye remembered that he had been caught peeping at her earlier, and he really didn't know how to face her.

Bai Ye: You're welcome. Anyone would have helped.

Ye Qingcheng bit her lip and hesitated as she typed.

Ye Qingcheng: Are you free? I'd like to invite you to dinner.

Bai Ye: There's no need for that. I didn't do anything.

Although having dinner with beautiful women is a wonderful thing, Bai Ye doesn't quite know how to interact with girls.

Although he has been in relationships, it doesn't mean he knows how to get along with girls.

Ye Qingcheng: Please let me thank you properly.

Bai Ye hesitated for a moment.

Bai Ye: I haven't been free lately. Is it okay after I come back from the National Day holiday?

Ye Qingcheng: Okay.

Although the opportunity to express her gratitude was postponed to ten days, Ye Qingcheng didn't feel there was anything wrong with it because she had been very busy recently. After all, she was a teaching assistant, and the first two weeks of the semester were the busiest, so she didn't have much free time.

The most common and effective way to express gratitude is to treat someone to a meal.

This was the only thing she could think of after thinking for a long time.

It was clear from Ye Qing's words that he absolutely had to thank him, so Bai Ye didn't refuse, thinking that they could settle things after the meal.

After all, the two have no connection whatsoever except for what happened last night.

I was watching Douyin (TikTok) late at night and stumbled upon a video.

It's a video of a woman cosplaying Shen He. The woman in the video is wearing a mask, but it can't cover her entire face. She has a great figure and her cosplay is exceptionally well done. She's definitely a beautiful woman.

Bai Ye gave it a thumbs up without hesitation.

I've been following this blogger, Baiye, since high school.

The blogger's first cosplay post didn't get many likes or comments, but Bai Ye was his first fan.

They followed each other on social media and became friends.

I watch every single one of her videos, and I always like and comment on them.

Moreover, Bai Ye's contact name for her is "wife".

After all, who wouldn't want a woman who can cosplay?
