Senior Sister's Face

"Why are you here?" Su Baizhou asked.

"Just here for fun."

Luo Ye handed the milk tea in his hand to Su Baizhou.

When he saw Fairy Senior Sister here, he had taken the time to buy a cup of milk tea before returning.

Seeing the clear handprint on Fairy Senior Sister's face, Luo Ye's heart skipped a beat, but he did not ask what had happened.

Something unpleasant must have happened. If Senior Sister wanted to talk about it, she would tell him herself. Since she had not said anything, he would not ask.

Taking the milk tea, Su Baizhou stood up and said, "We're not taking customers here anymore."

"Yeah."

Luo Ye turned to look behind him, and then his stomach began to growl.

From last night until now, he had not eaten very well. He had eaten Lan Zhou Ramen for lunch, and now he was hungry again.

Hearing his stomach growl, Su Baizhou picked up her suitcase and stood up, saying softly, "Let's go eat."

But because of the holiday, and because Lingyin Temple was up in the mountains, the taxis and buses heading down were extremely crowded.

The two chose to walk down the mountain, and it was quite a long journey.

Luo Ye took the suitcase from Su Baizhou's hand and carried her luggage for her before setting off down the mountain.

After walking for around half an hour, they had left the busiest stretch of road behind, but neither of them suggested taking a taxi.

And throughout that half hour, neither of them spoke. They merely walked side by side in silence.

It was not until they passed a convenience store that Luo Ye stopped.

At the entrance of the convenience store was a sausage grill, and the sausages inside looked, smelled, and tasted delicious.

More importantly, Luo Ye really was a little hungry.

Su Baizhou looked over as well.

Unlike Luo Ye, she had not eaten all day.

She subconsciously swallowed, then looked at Luo Ye and said, "If you want some, I'll buy two."

"That won't be enough. Too few."

With a grand wave of his hand, Luo Ye bought six sausages and put them in a bag.

He handed one to Senior Sister, thinking girls probably ate less, then planned to eat the remaining five himself.

Su Baizhou looked at the sausage in her hand and began eating it.

By the time she finished it, she discovered that only one sausage remained in Luo Ye's bag.

"Mine. Give it to me."

Su Baizhou held out her palm and demanded it in a matter-of-fact tone.

For some reason, Luo Ye suddenly found Fairy Senior Sister like this rather cute.

It was like an immortal fairy descending to the mortal world and cooking at a stove.

Senior Sister like this was even more charming.

At some point, Fairy Senior Sister, who had once seemed so impossibly distant, had become someone who could appear by his side and even stroll alongside him as though it were the most ordinary thing in the world.

After eating several sausages, Luo Ye was finally not so hungry anymore.

He checked the time and realized it was already past seven.

Night had fallen completely. Luo Ye and Su Baizhou walked for a while longer before arriving by the lake.

This was Hangzhou's most famous attraction, the very West Lake in the name West Lake Vinegar Fish.

Besides Luo Ye and Su Baizhou, many couples around them were holding hands and taking leisurely walks.

The lake was beautiful. Across it, they could see the mountain range where Lingyin Temple stood, with several temple-like buildings on the mountain glowing beautifully.

Luo Ye said in surprise, "That's so far away. I didn't expect us to have walked for so long."

If it had been in the past, he would have complained about being tired long ago.

But with Fairy Senior Sister by his side, he only felt that this road could never be long enough, even wanting to keep walking forever.

Just as Luo Ye was admiring the beautiful lakeside scenery, Su Baizhou took out her phone and called a taxi.

Their destination was the bus station.

She had just bought two tickets, planning to return to the countryside forty kilometers away. At this hour, they could still get tickets for the night bus.

By the time Luo Ye came back to his senses, the taxi had already stopped by the roadside.

After getting in, Luo Ye asked in confusion, "Senior Sister, where are we going?"

"The station."

"Huh? Are we going back to Jiangcheng?" Luo Ye asked.

"No."

Su Baizhou looked out the window and opened it a crack.

Wind slipped in through the gap, lifting Su Baizhou's long hair. A captivating fragrance drifted along with it toward Luo Ye.

The alluring scent made Luo Ye's heartbeat speed up. Looking at Senior Sister's stunning profile, he asked haltingly, "Then... then where are we going?"

"To my home."

Su Baizhou knew that Luo Ye definitely had nowhere to stay in Hangzhou, so he could only go with her to her mother's place.

Hearing this, Luo Ye lowered his head, feeling a little nervous.

His luggage was still at the hotel...

Forget it. It was only some clothes. It didn't matter if he left them behind.

How could clothes be more important than Senior Sister?

The taxi arrived at the station.

The two found the bus they were taking and boarded the overnight coach.

There were not many people on the bus, and it was quiet all around. Crickets chirped in the grass nearby.

Moonlight streamed through the window and fell across Su Baizhou's face.

That exquisite face was breathtaking no matter how one looked at it.

Su Baizhou sat in the window seat, while Luo Ye sat on the aisle side, holding her suitcase.

Su Baizhou rested her hand against the window, propping up her chin as she gazed calmly outside.

Luo Ye, meanwhile, looked down at his phone.

Whenever he was bored, he would check the freshman group chat.

After all, there were always a few attention seekers in the group.

For example, right now, someone claiming to be a rich second-generation heir had posted a photo of a supercar in the group and said, "Had I known, I wouldn't have driven here. I didn't expect parking at school to be such a hassle."

Several people below sent speechless reaction stickers.

Then, that rich second-generation heir actually tagged Tang Enqi in the group.

:@Tang Enqi, Sister Enqi, isn't my car cool?

Tang Enqi did not dare reply at all.

That guy might really have been a rich second-generation heir, but this was school. Compared to money, everyone cared more about appearances.

If they replied directly, it would make them seem materialistic.

Of course, once they left school, most people would choose money over appearances. But there was no denying that school was one of the few places where everyone was equal, at least on the surface.

Suddenly.

The bus jolted. Su Baizhou's body unconsciously leaned over, and Luo Ye felt something soft press against his shoulder.

His expression changed. At that moment, he was more nervous than he had ever been in his life.

"Senior Sister?"

Luo Ye lowered his voice and murmured softly.

But the person beside him did not respond. He turned his head slightly and looked at the Iceberg Goddess beside him, only to discover that she had actually fallen asleep.

No wonder she had been so still. Luo Ye had thought Senior Sister was admiring the scenery.

Seeing Fairy Senior Sister like this, Luo Ye's heart pounded wildly. He stared unblinkingly at her pretty face, unable to look away.

Senior Sister... was really so beautiful.

And although she looked strong and imposing on the surface, she was actually a sensitive little girl who needed someone to take care of her.

By now, the handprint on Su Baizhou's face was no longer visible. Luo Ye unconsciously reached out and touched Senior Sister's pretty face.

He had never touched a girl's face in his life. Even now, he merely poked it lightly with a finger.

So soft...

Were all girls' faces as soft as cotton?

Luo Ye did not notice Su Baizhou's eyebrows twitch slightly, though her eyes remained closed.
