Bai Ye raised his lips to indicate that he had received the other party's kindness, and slowly explained:
"In the Celestial Empire, there's a belief that yang energy can suppress evil spirits. Places with abundant yang energy are naturally the places I just mentioned. At night, when people disperse, evil spirits take the opportunity to reveal themselves. If you accidentally stumble into one of these places, well... the consequences are too devastating to even imagine."
Seeing that Bai Ye spoke in a very clear and orderly manner, he became afraid of going out to sea again.
She was now half-sitting on three cement pipes, and she had an inexplicable feeling that when she couldn't see, a human head would emerge from the cement pipes.
"Senior...if I become a ghost, can I not let you go?"
"Uh...are you still so polite after becoming a ghost? You can be more fierce and don't embarrass the ghosts."
"I'm already fierce enough!" Chu Hai pursed his lips, put his hands on his hips, and tried hard to look fierce.
Bai Ye glanced down and nodded silently.
It is indeed very fierce, and even fiercer than Shiyu.
"Being fierce isn't enough; you also have to be tall and strong to be intimidating. Otherwise... you'll be taken home and raised as a pet."
"Senior ヽ(≧Д≦)ノ!"
Bai Ye smiled and changed the hand that was patting her head into stroking it. He bent down and kissed her on the top of her head, then held her in his arms and gently caressed her.
The warmth and steadiness that entered Chu Hai's heart were so clear.
"I feel like my senior has done something bad to me..."
"How could that be? I cherish going out to sea the most, and I can't bear to do anything bad."
"Senior sister said that this is the most common coaxing technique used by seniors: smooth talk."
"Don't believe them, they are the best at deceiving people. You see, once they stay overnight, they trick me into staying up all night."
"Isn't it because of some other reason?" Chu Hai glanced sideways.
……
Autumn nights are both picturesque and cool, but for...
"Ah sneeze——!"
For the sake of health, Bai Ye lowered his head and patted Chu Hai, who was curled up in his arms with a comfortable look on his face.
"Let's go back to the sea..."
"Hmm..." Chu Hai murmured reluctantly, and nudged his head into Bai Ye's arms, "Sit for a while longer, please, senior."
"Of course I can." Bai Ye sniffed, "Can you hold me when we go out to sea? The wind makes me so cold..."
"Senior, you're complaining about the cold now. You're not manly enough!" Chu Hai teased.
"I'm a practical person who prefers warmth to elegance." Bai Ye puffed out his chest.
Chu Hai knocked his forehead on his arm and gave him a big hug.
Of course, she was reluctant to see her senior Bai Ye being left out in the cold, but before leaving, she had something else to say.
"Senior."
"uh-huh?"
"There are some things I wanted to say at this time yesterday, but unfortunately I didn't have the chance yesterday. I was given a chance to think about it overnight, but I still want to say it to you tonight."
Chu Hai looked up and met Bai Ye's gaze, conveying his seriousness to him through his eyes.
"As expected, I still hope that Senior can win this competition."
. . . . . .
The next day.
Ying Lili got up very early.
Although it was already 8 o'clock, which was considered late for school on normal days, it was definitely early compared to her usual weekend routine of going to bed at 5 o'clock.
Because I told my mom last night, I had a energizing breakfast this morning.
Although she was so sleepy that she kept nodding her head, she couldn't be called "energetic" at all.
"Eri, can you hear me?" Sayuri Sawamura waved in front of her.
"Yeah." Eriri's eyes were half-closed, only her mouth was moving, and she seemed not to notice the waving.
"I have to go out for lunch at noon, so you can take care of lunch by yourself. I don't know if I can make it back in time for dinner, so you can figure it out~"
"Uh-huh."
"Then I'm going out. Be careful on the way to school."
"Uh-huh."
"Don't be too sleepy."
"Uh-huh."
Ying Lili didn't know how long she was confused, when suddenly a breeze blew and burst her snot bubbles.
"Oh...this nap is so nice, what time is it mommy?"
"Mother?"
Eriri looked around, but got no response and didn't see Sayuri Sawamura.
"Where have you been...ah, it's already 9:-?! You're late, late!"
Ying Lili didn't bother to finish her half-eaten breakfast. She picked up a piece of bread and hurriedly rode her bike out the door.
However, it was still past 10 o'clock when she arrived at school, and she was immediately annoyed OTZ in the empty classroom.
"Ah—I originally thought four hours would be enough for me to finish painting and go home for dinner, but now I have to work until at least 4 p.m...."
She had forgotten what Sayuri Sawamura had told her in the morning.
"Well, let's paint first. I'll be hungry for a while..."
She was extremely busy during the period before the last campus festival. This year, she has become famous, and she has received more work and more expectations, and is even busier.
She is confident that she can deliver a good work that lives up to everyone's expectations, but time...
"Ah... what should I do with the inspiration for Bai Ye's incident? I have no clue and I'm so annoyed..."
Chapter 764: No more bad things in the academy! In every sense!
"I've been busy for over two hours and only finished half of the painting. I'm so tired and hungry..."
Ying Lili slumped in her seat, her eyes dull and she looked weak and powerless, like a golden salted fish.
Since she had closed the door and drawn the curtains, she wasn't afraid of being discovered, so she just let go of her nature and fully displayed her side as a good-for-nothing otaku lady.
It usually takes other classes more than two hours to draw a blackboard newspaper, but she only finished half of it in more than two hours. It was not because her drawing skills were poor, but because she was striving for perfection.
"It's already 12: and I'm only halfway through. Why should I try to be so strong as to win a prize at the school festival?"
Yinglili's stomach was rumbling, so she lay down on the table to rest for a while.
I only ate half of my breakfast, I'd be surprised if I wasn't hungry.
"Hmm...Send a message to Mom, lunch is turning into afternoon tea."
[Mom, I won't be home for lunch. I'll be home for afternoon tea.]
Half a minute later, Sayuri Sawamura replied.
[Eri, Mom said at breakfast that she wouldn't be home for lunch or dinner, so you can take care of it yourself~]
Ying Lili's face turned pale and her body softened, turning into a salted fish noodle. She slid from the table and chair to the floor, softening into a pool of golden dough with only a pair of ponytails.
"There's no food at home... Takeout, takeout, hurry up and get some..."
She just opened the food delivery app and suddenly remembered that this was at school. Food delivery was not allowed in the school, even if she went to the school gate to pick it up. Moreover, the school cafeteria and canteen were closed on weekends.
"I'm dying... I'm dying... I still have to go out for lunch. I feel like dying halfway down that long, smelly school road..."
What other ways are there to get a fresh, hot meal without moving or ordering takeout?
A figure appeared in Eriri's mind, and she picked up her phone and sent a message without hesitation.
……
Jingle Bell--!
Bai Ye was chewing on tempura shrimp and picked up his phone to check messages.
Kato Megumi originally wondered who had sent her the work, but when she saw Bai Ye's helpless look, she realized that it must have been someone in the club who had sent her something interesting.
Bingtang, who was sitting on the other side of Bai Ye, was much more direct and asked directly:
"Aye, who is that?"
"See for yourselves."
Bai Ye showed them his phone, which contained a message from Ying Lili and his own reply.
[Bai Ye, I’m hungry.]
[If you’re hungry, go eat.]
"Has this Eriri finally become so insolent that she needs to hang a cake around her neck?"
"Eh, I think it's more of a tease. Will he send me some delicious food photos to get back at Ah Ye later?"
"Hmm... I remember Eriri said she was going to school this morning to draw a blackboard newspaper. I wonder if she had lunch yet."
As soon as he finished speaking, Eriri replied, which just confirmed Kato Megumi's guess.
[I'm at school and have no food to eat.]
Let’s go eat outside.
[I have no energy and don’t want to move (゜ロ゜)]
[So what do you want?]
[You bring your food to school, oh! I want it to be fresh and hot!]
"Look at this, look at this—" Bai Ye surrounded the two of them, pointed at his phone, and cursed helplessly with a smile, "This is what people say. Not only do they want me to deliver food, but they also want it to be fresh and hot."
Kato Megumi knew that Bai Ye was not complaining, because the sincerity in his eyes could not be hidden.
"Eriri must be tired from drawing, but last night, Shiyu-senpai and Eriri said they were going home to sleep. I didn't prepare much food for lunch today. Um... there should be some rice left, but not enough vegetables."
Bingtang rummaged through the bag. She and Kato Megumi went to the supermarket together this morning.
"I bought some cake for afternoon tea. Should I send it to Eriri?"
Bai Ye thought about it and shook his head.
"Rice is better for lunch. I'll bring something for Eriri."
Since I'm delivering food to Eriri, of course it's not just about delivering food. I have to give Eriri some time during this afternoon.
He was not worried that his classmates would see him and Eriri together when they went to school later. Since Eriri had sent a message asking for help, it meant that there was definitely no one around her, otherwise Eriri would definitely maintain the image of "the eldest daughter of the Sawamura family" in front of outsiders.
"I'm going to bring Eriri some food. Xiaohui, just put the bowl in the sink. I'll wash it when I get back."
"It's okay, Bai Ye-jun go ahead."
"Where's the rock sugar? I'll give you a ride back if you want to."
"No need, Ah Ye, go ahead. It looks like Eriri is starving."
Last night they spent an unforgettable and wonderful night with Bai Ye, and this week was already satisfying.
"But, Byakuya-kun, please be patient. If you're caught being intimate with Eriri at school, it will turn from a story into an accident."
"Am I that hungry?" Bai Ye was almost OTZed by the ridicule.
"I don't know if Ah Ye is hungry or not, but after he came back last night, he sneaked up on me and Hui from behind. He must be satisfied, right? He also played for a long time this morning."
"Michiru, you're wrong. Byakuya-kun is even more exaggerated than the male protagonist in the 18Xgalgame. It's never wrong to tell him not to do anything messy at any time."
"That's right—Once Ah Ye gets caught up in a romantic affair, she tends to get carried away."
Bai Ye was too tired to complain.
"Do you have any misunderstanding about my inner image?"
Kato Megumi and Bingtang gave Bai Ye a look that said "Is there even a need to ask?" and sent him away from home completely.
