Turning around and leaving without lingering is indeed very dashing.
Bai Ye hadn't had a haircut in a long time; her bangs slightly obscured her eyes, making it impossible to discern her emotions.
Deep down, he still harbored a sliver of hope that Yao Yuyan would catch up with him and refute what he had just said.
But expectations are just expectations, and disappointment seems to be the only natural outcome.
I clearly said I would never have any more contact with her, and I clearly said I would forget her.
But when I'm around her, I can't help myself.
The reason why the white moonlight is the white moonlight is that all that remains when you recall it is regret.
Bai Ye used to disbelieve in anything, including the concept of "white moonlight," but now she understands just how destructive "white moonlight" can be.
The one who took him to experience upper-class life, changed his timid personality, changed his way of doing things...
Ultimately, it occupied a place in his heart, as if it would never fade.
As Bai Ye walked, he returned to the spot under the overpass and sat silently on the lawn.
This is where Bai Ye first met Yao Yuyan, and also where the two began pretending to be a couple.
He found himself back here again, but this time it was a night meant for two; he was alone, gazing into the distance.
Staring blankly ahead, Bai Ye completely ignored the pretty figure approaching him.
Su Zhimeng waved her small hand in front of him and called softly, "Junior, junior!"
Bai Ye snapped out of her daze and noticed the senior student beside her.
"What are you doing here, senior?"
Su Zhimeng said with concern, "I saw you spacing out when I passed by, so I came to check on you."
"Did something happen? You seem to be in a bad mood."
The unexpected concern warmed Bai Ye's heart; her senior was still so gentle and considerate.
"No, it's just a minor dispute. I'm just thinking about how to resolve it."
Bai Ye explained with a smile.
Su Zhimeng stared into Bai Ye's eyes and sighed inwardly.
Fool, no matter how much you try to hide it, it's no use; your eyes have already betrayed you.
She wouldn't force her junior to talk if he didn't want to.
Su Zhimeng gently stroked Bai Ye's head, her eyes filled with tenderness: "If there's anything you can't solve, or if you want to confide in someone, you can come to your senior for advice. Whether I can help or not, I'll do my best!"
Bai Ye was so moved she almost cried.
He's almost smitten by how gentle the angelic senior is.
"I understand, thank you, senior."
"Hmm, good children get candy. Here, have one!"
The angelic senior took a small candy out of her bag and handed it to him.
Bai Ye accepted the candy with a wry smile: "Senior, I'm not a little kid!"
Su Zhimeng watched with a smile as Bai Ye ate her candy.
Su Zhimeng cupped Bai Ye's cheeks in her hands in an extremely bold gesture, and said earnestly, "Eating candy will make you feel as sweet as candy. You should also keep a good mood like candy and not be unhappy all the time, okay?"
Their eyes met, and at such a close distance, Bai Ye could vaguely hear Su Zhimeng's slightly rapid breathing and smell a faint fragrance, which made Bai Ye blush.
The girl's hands were so soft and boneless that Bai Ye couldn't help but feel them.
Su Zhimeng felt the heat from her hand, put it down, and saw Bai Ye's face was flushed red, which she found somewhat amusing.
After taking a deep breath, Bai Ye uttered a single word: "Okay."
Su Zhimeng smiled broadly, her hands clasped behind her back, looking very happy.
Bai Ye was no longer dwelling on the past. Suddenly, he remembered that he hadn't seen his senior for a long time: "By the way, senior, why haven't I seen you at the bubble tea shop lately?"
Su Zhimeng explained, "Recently, I've been busy preparing materials for the CET-6 exam, so I haven't gone these past few days."
Bai Ye's face stiffened.
Level 7 exam?
Bai Ye suddenly compared herself to herself, and the more she thought about it, the less courage she had to make comparisons.
He only got an A grade in English during his freshman year!
And what year is the senior student in now? Junior!
Bai Ye felt that he wouldn't even be able to pass the CET-4 (College English Test Band 4) after graduation, or rather, he definitely wouldn't be able to pass it. After all, his major didn't require CET-4, and he wasn't a bachelor's degree holder; he only had a junior college degree.
Thinking about it this way, I feel balanced again. The senior is a top student, and I'm a mediocre student.
Bai Ye's eyes suddenly lit up, and she asked, "Senior, do you have any materials for the English Level 3 exam?"
Su Zhimeng was taken aback, as if she was thinking about something: "Level 3 English? Isn't that high school material? I was good at English in high school, and I didn't prepare any materials."
Bai Ye's lips twitched. Well, he didn't understand the world of academic geniuses; it was a world that hurt him.
Bai Ye wasn't interested in English in junior high, so he went to study Japanese in high school. He also just coasted through his first year of college. He didn't know English to begin with, and he only passed the A-level exam by sheer luck if it hadn't been so easy.
Su Zhimeng quickly realized that her junior hadn't studied English in high school.
Su Zhimeng comforted her, "Don't worry, I'll prepare a portion for you when I get back."
Bai Ye scratched his head, still not wanting to trouble his senior: "I won't trouble you, senior. Just focus on preparing for your exam."
"No trouble at all!"
"But……"
Su Zhimeng smiled brightly, "Alright, isn't it only right for a senior to help a junior?"
Bai Ye felt as if her heart had been purified, and the gloom from before had been swept away.
"Um!"
Bai Ye nodded in response.
At that moment, Bai Ye wished time could freeze, so he could always see his senior's beautiful and moving smile.
"Come back to reality, what are you thinking about again, junior?" Su Zhimeng waved to Bai Ye again.
I was both amused and exasperated by this junior student who seemed to be spacing out again.
"Ahem, it's getting late, senior. Let me take you home!" Bai Ye changed the subject.
He couldn't very well say that he was just infatuated with the female student!
What will his senior think of him if he tells her?
After all, the senior is so kind and gentle to everyone. He can't ask for too much or be too greedy of her, otherwise what if he upsets her?
There's always a balance to be struck in relationships. Bai Ye didn't want the pure feelings between her and her senior to cross that line and affect their relationship.
Actually, this is fine. The senior is still the angelic senior, and he is still the junior who is cared for by the angel.
Bai Ye sometimes thinks that if he had met Angel Senior Sister first instead of Yao Yuyan, he would definitely have fallen hopelessly in love with Angel Senior Sister.
Although the senior student is gentle to everyone, she is exceptionally resolute when it comes to relationships, rejecting countless men's confessions and keeping a sufficient distance from them.
Anyway, Bai Ye had never heard of Angel Senior Sister having any scandals with any man.
Moreover, Bai Ye didn't think many people were worthy of such a perfect angel senior.
Bai Ye sometimes wonders what he would be like if his senior got married in the future.
I guess she forced herself to kill that man, and then drank several liters of liquor to drown her sorrows?
Thinking about it that way, it seems very possible!
