It was another weekend, and also the end of the first month of the semester.
By the end of September, once this weekend was over, they only had three more days of classes before a seven-day holiday.
Many vaguely involved young men and women would make their relationship official over this weekend, then go somewhere together during the seven-day break. Naturally, it had to be far enough away that they could not go home, so they could stay in a hotel... those who knew, knew.
Or they would each return home and briefly begin a long-distance relationship, only to act like newlyweds after a short separation seven days later.
Like Li Haoyang.
Today, he was wearing brand-new clothes. He had asked Liu Bingxin out and was preparing for their date. He had even planned out his confession.
Wang Dachui wept bitterly. Another beautiful girl had been taken from this world, and he, Wang Dachui, could no longer give every girl a home.
He patted Li Haoyang on the shoulder and solemnly said, "Coach, listen to me. Take good care of Bingxin for me. If you dare treat her badly, I won't recognize you as my son anymore."
Li Haoyang scratched his head and gave a foolish chuckle before picking his nose. "Brother Hammer, do I look handsome today?"
"Handsome my ass!"
Wang Dachui got angry.
At that moment, Shen Qiao poked his head out from his bed and asked, "How's it going, Brother Hammer? Do you have a chance with the great beauty Tang?"
"A chance? Of course I do. Don't you know how charming your Brother Hammer is?"
Wang Dachui said confidently, thumping his chest.
But Tang Enqi had been lukewarm toward him. He had tried asking her out this weekend, only for her to politely turn him down and say that she already had plans.
Sigh, I, Wang Dachui, am handsome and dashing. Was I really going to be left alone with these two guys in an empty room again this weekend?
Was there really no one who recognized my, Wang Dachui's, charm?
Suddenly, his expression changed. Looking at Luo Ye, who had slung on his backpack, he could not help asking, "Wild Child, where are you going this time? You snuck off last weekend, and now you're trying the same trick again?"
"The Hanfu Club has a gathering. There's hanfu in my backpack. I don't know whether we're supposed to wear it to the gathering, so I brought it just in case."
Hearing that, Wang Dachui breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as he was not going out to meet girls.
His own failures were painful enough, but his friends' success was simply unbearable.
"Coach, if your confession succeeds, you're expelled from Dorm 515. If it fails, you're still my son!"
Hearing Wang Dachui's words, Li Haoyang smiled and turned to leave the dorm.
Suddenly, Wang Dachui stepped forward and called out to Li Haoyang, "Coach!"
The look in his eyes was like that of an old father watching his son marry into another family.
"If you don't come back with good news, I'll be even sadder."
"So mushy." Shen Qiao was speechless.
Luo Ye nodded as well.
Li Haoyang left, leaving behind only a lonely silhouette.
The wind howled, the Yi River ran cold; once the hero departed, he would never return...
What a fine poem.
Everyone had made their plans for the weekend. After Luo Ye left, only Shen Qiao and Wang Dachui remained in Dorm 515.
One of them was lazy and spent most of his time sleeping.
The other played games day and night, despite being terrible at them.
After Luo Ye left, he received a message from Su Baizhou.
He had changed Su Baizhou's contact name to Fairy Senior Sister.
Fairy Senior Sister: My car keys are still with you.
At the mention of that, Luo Ye suddenly remembered.
Right, he had almost forgotten about that.
Then Su Baizhou sent another message.
Fairy Senior Sister: Come to the Teacher's Apartment. I'll send you the gathering address.
Seeing that message, Luo Ye froze for a moment before understanding what she meant.
Fairy Senior Sister wanted him to drive her there!
A sudden sense of fulfillment surged through Luo Ye's heart, as though he had been injected with adrenaline. Emotions washed over his empty heart, and happiness seemed to radiate from his entire body.
He headed toward the Teacher's Apartment and arrived at the parking lot.
Su Baizhou was already standing beside the car.
Before him, Su Baizhou wore a red hanfu. She stood with dignified elegance beside the utterly mismatched pink Chopped Chili Fish Head.
Su Baizhou's figure and looks suited any outfit, especially this red hanfu. She was like a classical beauty stepping out of a painting.
She was like an ancient noble young lady who rarely left her home, impossible to look away from.
Seeing Luo Ye in casual clothes, Su Baizhou's brows subtly furrowed.
This guy had not worn hanfu.
Luo Ye noticed it too and said somewhat sheepishly, "I... I brought it in my backpack."
Damn it, why was he stuttering again?
"Put it on."
Su Baizhou spoke flatly.
"Huh? Here?" Luo Ye looked around, wondering if he had heard wrong.
"There's still time. Go change at home."
"At home?"
Luo Ye looked puzzled.
"Mm."
Su Baizhou nodded as if it were nothing.
She had originally wanted to say to change at her place, but remembering that Gu Mingxuan was this Junior Underclassman's older brother, she could not bring herself to say it.
How could that be her home? If she had to put it that way, it was Luo Ye's home.
But she could not bring herself to say, "Go change at your home," either.
So she could only leave out the pronoun and simply say to change at home.
But no matter how she phrased it, it was easy to misunderstand.
Luo Ye understood, but he did not make any jokes about it. He was merely curious why Fairy Senior Sister had directly said home.
He was not narcissistic enough to think that Senior Sister already considered him family.
He liked Fairy Senior Sister, but that did not mean he would make jokes that only couples could make before they were together.
At that moment, Luo Ye still did not know that Su Baizhou was the one who had sent him to the police station, nor did he know she was the tenant of that apartment.
"Follow me."
Su Baizhou did not think much of it. She started walking and led the way.
Building Five, Unit Four, 614.
When they arrived outside Room 614, Luo Ye suddenly felt a faint sense of familiarity.
When she mentioned 614, Luo Ye had not reacted much. But standing outside Room 614 himself, he suddenly remembered something...
"Senior Sister... you..."
Luo Ye began to stammer incoherently.
Su Baizhou was slightly stunned too.
He... did not know she was renting Gu Mingxuan's apartment?
Early this morning, when Luo Ye had ordered takeout for her, she had thought he knew.
Thinking about how she had sent this Junior Underclassman to the police station before he had even started school, even the Iceberg Goddess could not help showing a trace of embarrassment.
Fortunately, Luo Ye did not ask.
They both understood, yet neither mentioned what had happened before.
An indescribable atmosphere gathered in the air.
After opening the door, Su Baizhou did not go in. Instead, she pointed inside and said, "That is my room. One of the other two has Professor Gu's things in it, and the other is the room he left for you."
"I understand, Senior Sister!"
Luo Ye's body was somewhat stiff.
Walking into the room, Luo Ye finally confirmed it.
This was Gu Mingxuan's apartment. This was where he had been arrested by police officers who suddenly burst in, where he had stood there completely bewildered and shouted that he was innocent, only for no one to pay attention.
He had never expected that, on the day before school started, Fairy Senior Sister had been the one to send him in.
Gu Mingxuan had actually rented his apartment to Fairy Senior Sister...
So he and Fairy Senior Sister had already crossed paths like this before school even began.
Luo Ye walked into the room his Cousin had left for him and began changing into his hanfu.
