Downstairs from Su Zhimeng's dormitory, a number of men and women were scattered about.
I guess it's another young couple meeting up downstairs at the dorm.
Some students simply grab their takeout and head back to their dorms.
In the sweltering summer, only a small number of people leave their dorm rooms to eat in the cafeteria; most order takeout.
Moreover, even when you go to the cafeteria, it's mostly filled with boys, with only a few girls.
Bai Ye waited for Su Zhimeng to arrive under the grove of trees next to the dormitory building.
The meeting in the grove wasn't for a date or anything; it was mainly because there were too many men and women downstairs in the dormitory, and Bai Ye felt a bit awkward standing alone, so he simply came to the less crowded grove.
There weren't many couples strolling around the grove in the summer. Bai Ye brushed the dust off the small platform next to him and sat down.
I started playing on my phone out of sheer boredom.
The first video that popped up was a video of Valorant. EDG has been winning the championship for so long, why am I still seeing videos of their championship victory?
Is my TikTok app the old-age version?
I scrolled up and found another video from a gaming blogger about Wa. I watched some of Xiao Tangren's gameplay.
He secretly thought that although his skills were bad, they weren't that outrageous.
After watching another video demonstrating how to use the techniques, Bai Ye realized that there was a big problem with his Douyin account.
Four out of the five videos feature tiles, and one features a black monkey.
Why are there no videos full of artwork anymore?
Undeterred, I swiped down again and finally saw a work of art.
There was a strange sense of familiarity to it; wasn't the girl in the video Ye Qingcheng? And I even helped her film this video!
Hehe, although his skills are average, his good looks completely overshadow his shortcomings.
After Yao Yuyan's torment, it was already dark.
The streetlights cast a dim glow, barely illuminating the road.
If there are young couples kissing or something in the shadows of the woods, this would be a perfect hiding place.
As Bai Ye looked around, he felt the streetlights above him suddenly go out.
A shadow fell over him, and a familiar scent wafted from his nose.
Bai Ye looked up and saw a face as radiant as a galaxy.
The gloom that had just been tormented by Yao Yuyan dissipated considerably.
Bai Ye expressed that she urgently needs the warmth of angels.
"Junior, here, this is for you!"
Su Zhimeng handed Bai Ye a blue bottle whose contents were unclear.
Bai Ye couldn't understand the string of English above; it was as if he were looking at ancient script from the last century.
Bai Ye asked, "What is this?"
Looking at Bai Ye's puzzled expression, Su Zhimeng suddenly found the junior a little cute.
She suddenly had an urge to reach out and pat Bai Ye's head.
"Aromatherapy!"
After answering her question, Su Zhimeng reached out and touched Bai Ye's hair.
Because Bai Ye was sitting, he was two heads lower than Su Zhimeng, so Su Zhimeng's caress looked a bit like bending down to caress... a child.
This made Bai Ye feel extremely uncomfortable. ╯﹏╰!
Bai Ye's hair wasn't in good condition, but Su Zhimeng touched it enthusiastically. It was hard to imagine that this angelic-looking girl would like to touch other people's heads.
What should I do if my angel mom always treats others like children?
Bai Ye covered his head with his hand, preventing Su Zhimeng from touching it.
Su Zhimeng withdrew her hand with some regret.
Bai Ye asked, puzzled, "Why would you want to give me aromatherapy?"
Su Zhimeng pointed her index finger at Bai Ye's head, somewhat like Itachi pointing at Sasuke, then put her hands on her hips and said:
"It's because you haven't been in a good mental state these past few days. This aromatherapy is supposed to help you sleep, so hopefully you can get a good night's rest and refresh yourself."
I'm so upset!
Bai Ye was so moved she almost cried.
So sweet! Angel mom!
"Thanks!"
Bai Ye accepted the aromatherapy, feeling a warm glow inside.
He didn't expect that when they went shopping together yesterday, Su Zhimeng noticed his mental state and took it to heart, so she bought him an aromatherapy diffuser the next day.
The senior student was so kind to him that he felt a little overwhelmed.
Could it be that my senior has a crush on me?
The thought suddenly popped into my head.
But the next second, Bai Ye sank it to the bottom of the sea.
What a joke! The biggest taboo in life is assuming that someone is interested in you.
He's no ordinary guy!
He had nothing to offer, so why would his senior want to be with him?
The senior student is very kind to everyone. Maybe one day she will see someone else in the same state as him and give them aromatherapy too?
Bai Ye felt a little uncomfortable; he suddenly realized that he had been somewhat selfish.
At this moment, he wished that his senior's gentleness would be reserved only for him, or perhaps forever reserved only for him.
But this is just wishful thinking; it's completely unrealistic.
An ugly duckling is still an ugly duckling; what makes you expect a swan?
"You're welcome. Hope you get a good night's sleep!"
Her smile is like a sweet melody, bringing a deep sense of peace and tranquility. It's as if as long as she's there, you can face any difficulty with a smile; it's a healing power.
Bai Ye felt a slight tremor in his heart, and a fleeting desire deep within him for her to belong exclusively to him vanished.
Negative emotions gradually subsided, and although it was night, it felt as if I was bathed in sunlight.
Such warmth, such healing power.
The night the two parted ways.
Bai Ye frequently turned back to look at her retreating figure.
Under the dim streetlights, Su Zhimeng's shadow was very long.
It left an indelible mark on his mind.
How Bai Ye wished that the scene would freeze at this moment, leaving only him to watch over this human world.
The dream must end, the fog must dissipate.
Bai Ye finally broke free after leaving the school gate.
A faint smile lingered at the corner of his mouth.
Every time he saw his senior, it was like a therapy session, healing his wounded heart.
Bai Ye felt incredibly lucky to have met her here.
...
In the dormitory, Bai Ye began packing her luggage, making sure she hadn't left anything behind, and ideally, she could move everything in one trip.
In this sweltering heat, moving it a second time would be absolutely agonizing.
But looking at all these things, Bai Ye felt that it was completely unrealistic to move them all in one trip.
Unless you borrow a small cart.
The dormitory supervisor has small carts; it's not difficult to borrow one.
Everything is ready except for the final push!
Pack the clothes one by one into the suitcase, pressing them down firmly until there's no more room to pack them.
The tidying up was completed quickly.
Bai Ye's roommates were a little puzzled by his actions, but they didn't ask.
After all, if it doesn't concern you, ignoring it is a good way to survive.
Bai Ye was quite happy to have some peace and quiet, as it was best to have no lingering ties.
Moving out like this will be stress-free.
Filled with excitement, Bai Ye took a shower, lay down on the bed, and began reporting the day's collaborative work and results to her instructor before reading a novel for a while.
Then he lay down on the bed and drifted off to sleep.
