Around 7 o'clock, the university was already bustling with people.
Most of them are freshmen who need to attend early morning self-study sessions.
Qin Bai went to the restroom in the building to wash the sweat off his face and headed towards the cafeteria.
I checked the location of the window.
"Auntie, two beef buns and a bowl of porridge."
"Okay, 4.5 yuan."
Scan the QR code to pay.
It has to be said that things are quite cheap at universities.
Especially for a top-tier university like his, which receives substantial government subsidies, the food is both high-quality and affordable.
He turned and scanned the cafeteria, pinpointing the figure hiding in a corner.
"Auntie, could you please have another bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean pork, and a vegetarian steamed bun?"
After paying, I carried my things to a corner.
Yu Xiaoyu secretly watched Qin Bai's every move.
Huh?
Why did he buy so much stuff?
Could it be for Senior Shen Muyao?
That's not right.
I heard that she rarely stays at school and is usually picked up and taken home at night.
Who did the senior buy breakfast for?
Wanzhou?
That doesn't seem right either; it wasn't packed.
Um?
How did he get here?
Could it be that they've discovered me?
Oh no, oh no!
He probably doesn't think I'm a stalker.
Let's see which direction he's moving first, just in case he doesn't notice me.
right.
Stay calm.
We must remain calm.
But as Qin Bai drew closer, she panicked.
He covered his little head with his coat and looked out through the gap.
run.
He came specifically for me.
"Yu Xiaoyu, come back."
"Huh? Who called me?" The girl pretended not to see him, but her bright red ears betrayed her.
"Come and eat."
"Hey? Senior Qin Bai, are you talking to me? Hahaha~~~ What a coincidence, we actually met here. Are you here to eat too?"
The awkward laughter and the awkward conversation made Yu Xiaoyu want to disappear into the ground.
Damn it.
I don't know what I've said.
Qin Bai almost burst out laughing at her antics.
Fortunately, he was well-mannered; if he laughed now, he was afraid the girl in front of him would run into a pillar and die.
Place the porridge and steamed buns opposite you.
"Alright, come and eat."
"Did you buy this for me?"
Looking at all the food she liked in front of her, Yu Xiaoyu's face lit up with hope, and she excitedly placed her little hands on her chest, like a kitten waiting to be fed.
"Um."
Qin Bai gave a faint reply.
I wanted to come over and talk to her to make things clear. I couldn't just sit here eating and let that young girl watch me.
He still possesses the most basic qualities.
"Senior, you're so kind to me. Let me treat you to dinner tonight. How about we go for barbecue? If you don't like that, we can go to..."
"etc."
Qin Bai looked at the excited girl opposite him and felt a headache coming on.
"Let's eat first, and we can talk about it after we finish eating."
After a few seconds of stunned silence, Yu Xiaoyu immediately deflated, completely losing her earlier excitement.
She picked up on some information that was detrimental to her.
The two ate breakfast facing each other.
Ten minutes later.
Qin Bai took care of his share.
Looking up, I was speechless.
Yu Xiaoyu was eating steamed buns in small bites and drinking porridge one grain at a time with chopsticks.
Needless to say, the speed was terrible; we ate for ages and still hadn't seen the filling in the buns.
"I'm telling you, Yu Xiaoyu, it's not that if you can't finish your food, there are some things you don't need to say."
With her thoughts exposed, the girl looked up at him innocently with wide eyes, her eyes welling up with tears, as if she was about to burst into tears at any moment.
"You...you broke your promise. Didn't we agree that we could talk after we finished eating?"
"We can't exploit bugs."
"I...I didn't," Yu Xiaoyu said, pouting.
You know what I'm going to say, right?
"I have no idea."
"Me and Shen Muyao..."
"I won't listen, I won't listen, you're just a turtle chanting scriptures."
Yu Xiaoyu covered her ears, closed her eyes, and started acting like a rogue.
Then I realized that what I said might have been a bit inappropriate.
He quickly looked up and explained, "Senior, I didn't say you were a turtle, but you... wait? Where is everyone?"
When I looked up, Qin Bai had already left his seat and was walking towards the door.
The meaning has been clearly expressed; she understands.
Whether she continues to pester him or gives up is not something Qin Bai can decide.
Therefore, leaving now is the best option.
At least I don't have to comfort Yu Xiaoyu who's crying.
At this moment, the girl reached out her hand, trying to call out to Qin Bai, but she couldn't utter the name she longed for no matter how hard she tried, until his figure disappeared from sight.
Yu Xiaoyu rested her chin on her arm, somewhat annoyed.
Why.
Liking someone is such a difficult thing.
She has rejected many suitors, each time with unwavering resolve.
In her heart, loving someone is a sacred thing; it's not something that can be decided overnight or by being attracted to someone's appearance.
So, she spent two years proving one thing.
That means she truly likes Qin Bai.
But when she finally found out, she discovered that the person she liked was getting engaged.
She took a bite of the steamed bun in frustration.
Yu Xiaoyu, Yu Xiaoyu, it's all because of your indecisiveness; you don't act like a man at all.
