"Wow, he's so handsome! When did such a handsome guy get into our school?"
"He doesn't seem to be from our school... Hey, who's that girl walking with him? I'm so envious of her, is she this handsome guy's girlfriend?"
"These days, handsome guys have really strange tastes. Why do they all end up with such ordinary girlfriends? It's infuriating."
......
Many girls passing by whispered among themselves, and Bai Xiaoruo heard every word they said.
In short, most comments say that she and Xian Mingyu are not a good match at all. She is a plain-looking girl with glasses, and she is much shorter than Xian Mingyu, which completely lowers the overall aesthetic appeal of the picture.
Bai Xiaoruo was also helpless. She couldn't directly retaliate. She couldn't very well tell them: "That's right, the handsome guy you like is mine. And he's not just my boyfriend, but my husband. We've got a marriage certificate, had a wedding, and sleep together every day."
If she really said that, they would probably all think she was crazy.
Bai Xiaoruo thought that Xuan Mingyu was just saying it casually and would leave after dropping her off at the classroom. Unexpectedly, he even planned to take her to her seat all the way to the classroom.
As soon as they reached the classroom door, when those who had bullied Bai Xiaoruo saw her and Xuan Mingyu come in together, the whole class instantly felt as if they had been slapped in the face. They stopped what they were doing, some stood up in a panic, and others sat in their seats looking at Bai Xiaoruo helplessly.
I thought she would never dare to come to school again after being so severely humiliated the day before yesterday, but I didn't expect that she would not only come today, but also bring a boy who is not from their school.
Did she bring any help?
Did Bai Xiaoruo come back specifically to seek revenge?
Where is your seat?
"This..." Bai Xiaoruo glanced around and saw that the classroom was full of people, but she couldn't find her seat. She guessed that... they really thought she was never coming back, and had even moved her desk and chair.
"Xiao Bai!" Ji Shushu was busy playing games in her seat when the noisy classroom suddenly quieted down. She looked up and realized that Bai Xiaoruo had arrived.
Ji Shushu quickly quit the game and walked excitedly towards Bai Xiaoruo, holding her hand tightly. She looked Bai Xiaoruo up and down, checking for any other injuries. "Xiaobai, why did you come to school today? I thought you hadn't been coming for the past few days. I haven't seen you at all. Are you still in pain? Is everything better?"
"Yes! Everything's ready, don't worry." Bai Xiaoruo was already used to Shushu's carefree attitude whenever they met.
From childhood to adulthood, it was Ji Ziqian and Ji Shushu who protected Bai Xiaoruo. Ji Shushu always boasted that because she was one year and three months older than Bai Xiaoruo, it was only natural for an older sister to take care of her younger sister, so she had a responsibility to take good care of her.
This care lasted for more than a decade. They would play together on weekends, walk to and from school together, and whenever Bai Xiaoruo encountered difficulties, Ji Shushu was always the first to rush to her aid.
In order to get into the same university, Bai Xiaoruo did her best to become more and more outstanding, which enabled her to skip a grade and receive an admission letter to the same university as Ji Shushu.
However, since Bai Xiaofu was also at this school, and Bai Xiaofu already disliked Bai Xiaoruo, her so-called half-sister, she naturally gave her a cold shoulder and even tried every means to cut off Bai Xiaoruo's hope of continuing her university studies. Unfortunately, she still managed to get Bai Xiaoruo into university.
"Xiaobai?" Xuan Mingyu raised an eyebrow. It really did sound like he was calling a pet dog's name.
Actually, there's a reason why Ji Shushu always calls Bai Xiaoruo "Xiaobai Xiaobai". When they first met, it was winter, and Bai Xiaoruo often wore a white down jacket. Children's pronunciation isn't very standard, so it's "Xiaoruo Xiaoruo". But Ji Shushu calls her "Xiaonuo Xiaonuo", which Ji Shushu always finds troublesome and doesn't like to say.
At that time, Ji Shushu had a pet rabbit named Xiaobai. She felt that Bai Xiaoruo was also like a rabbit. Since her surname was Bai, she started calling her Xiaobai from then on. Bai Xiaoruo did not object, and this became a habit for many years.
Ji Shushu then noticed Xuan Mingyu beside Bai Xiaoruo and was incredibly excited. "Oh my god! You, you must be Xiaobai's cousin, right? I remember you! Hello, hello, it's nice to meet you. My name is Ji Shushu, and I'm..."
"Shushu!" Bai Xiaoru interrupted Ji Shushu, giving her a reproachful look.
Why is she so happy to see Xian Mingyu? She's even happier than when she sees me. Could it be that she's really fallen for him?
"What's up? I was just saying hello to your cousin. Hehe, hello there! You're even more handsome in person than in photos. Cousin, do you have a girlfriend yet?"
Bai Xiaoruo was at a loss with Ji Shushu and didn't bother to say anything more. However, Xuan Mingyu found her frustrated look amusing. But he had no interest in these young girls. "I'm already married. My wife also goes to school here."
Bai Xiaoruo was somewhat surprised by Xuan Mingyu's answer. He actually told Shushu so frankly. He clearly... didn't want people to know?
"What? Cousin, you're married? Oh my god!" Ji Shushu covered her mouth in surprise, exclaiming, "Oh, what a pity! I met you too late. Cousin, you're so handsome, your wife must be incredibly beautiful too, right? What department is she in? What's her name?"
Xian Mingyu glanced at Bai Xiaoruo meaningfully, "She's alright, not too bad-looking. She's usually quite shy, and we're secretly married, so I can't tell you too much for now."
