By the time of her third year, Su Bai Zhuo had very few classes left, and since she had already secured her postgraduate admission, she had been busy with part-time jobs recently.
Her family wasn't wealthy, but as a talented computer science student, she had many ways to make money.
However, at this moment, after an unusual night of staying up late, Su Bai Zhuo didn't wake up until noon the next day.
She lay curled up on her bed, her elegant figure resembling that of an older sister, her legs, fair and delicate like white jade, tucked under the blanket, with her pajama neckline revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin, giving off a feline-like laziness.
It was hard to imagine that Jiang University's ice queen could look so adorable while sleeping.
As for why she stayed up late... even she wasn't quite sure.
She just found herself staying up for no reason.
Every time she was about to fall asleep, any slight movement on her phone would completely erase her drowsiness.
She didn't know what she was waiting for.
When she woke up, she checked her phone and saw a friend request.
[Return to Roots] sent a friend request.
Note: Luo Ye
Seeing these two words, Su Bai Zhuo was speechless.
This little brother... adding girls like this, who would agree?
Without hesitation, she accepted the friend request.
Her QQ was filled with photos of activities at Jiangcheng University, something she had to post as the student president.
So, she blocked Luo Ye on her QQ space, as she didn't want her work to bother friends outside of university.
She wondered how this young man would react upon learning that his gaming buddy was the student president of Jiangcheng University.
On the other side, after their morning class, the four of them, exhausted, headed to a small restaurant across from the school.
Although they mostly sat through their classes, a full morning of lectures was particularly tiring.
More importantly, they still had afternoon classes, and even an evening self-study session.
Today was Monday, and their schedule was packed, making it a true hell week.
"Three liang of beef noodles."
"Black pepper grilled meat rice bowl."
"Two liang of chicken offal noodles."
Then, the boss turned to Luo Ye and asked, "Sir, what about you?"
Seeing Luo Ye distracted, Wang Dachui nudged him and said, "Wild kid, if you're not eager to eat, there's something wrong with your thinking."
"Huh? Oh."
"Get me two liang of braised chicken rice noodles."
At this, everyone around looked stunned, and Wang Dachui twitched his mouth, "Do you want to hear what you're saying?"
"This guy must have been lectured into a stupor. Get him the same beef noodles as me; eating beef gives you strength."
When the boss brought the noodles to Luo Ye, he was still in a daze.
Shen Qiao sighed and said, "Brother Luo, you've got unrequited love written all over your face..."
"No!"
Luo Ye reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"And you too."
Shen Qiao glanced at Li Haoyang again, half-smiling, half-sarcastic, "Falling for that Li Bingxin from military training? What are you grinning about?"
Luo Ye and Li Haoyang were clearly unhappy and clueless, respectively.
"What the heck?"
Wang Dachui exclaimed, "Are you dating Bingxin?"
"Hehe, not yet, but she asked me out to go shopping tonight."
Seeing Li Haoyang's muscular build and simple-minded demeanor, Shen Qiao reminded him, 'Don't move too fast; be careful not to get tricked by a high-level green tea.'
'I won't let you talk about Ice Heart like that!'
Before Li Haoyang could react, Wang Dahammer was already upset.
Seeing this, Shen Qiao's lips twitched, thinking to herself, 'You're the real sycophant.'
After finishing the meal, Luo Ye looked at his switched-off phone with a conflicted expression.
He had to turn it on to pay.
It had been over three hours since he added Fairy Senior Sister on Green Bubble.
Would he see a rejection message right after turning on his phone?
'Hey, what are you dawdling for? Hurry up.'
Hearing his roommate's urging, Luo Ye reluctantly turned on his phone.
[Restart requires re-entering password]
362589...
At that moment, a message popped up.
[Su Ba Zhou accepted your friend request]
The next moment, joy lit up Luo Ye's face.
He paid as quickly as possible and rushed towards his roommates.
Noticing his expression, Shen Qiao smiled and said, 'Looks like she agreed, but this is just the beginning.'
'I know.'
Luo Ye nodded.
For him, being able to add Fairy Senior Sister on Green Bubble was already a very happy thing.
After a full day of classes, everyone visibly tired, even skipping dinner.
Except for Li Haoyang, who was energetic due to a date with a beautiful girl.
It was almost eight, but the mall didn't close until ten, so there was still time to go shopping.
Seeing Wang Dahammer and the others preparing to head back to the dorm, Li Haoyang asked curiously, 'Aren't you coming with me?'
'What?' The originally exhausted Wang Dahammer suddenly perked up, asking, 'Can we go together?'
'Yes, Ice Heart said one of her roommates would also come, so she told me to invite my roommates too.'
'Good brothers!'
Wang Dahammer put an arm around Li Haoyang's shoulder, looking ready to help his brother out.
'I'm not going.'
Shen Qiao wasn't interested in these activities and prepared to return to the dorm alone.
'I...'
Just as Luo Ye was about to speak, Wang Dahammer pulled him over, mischievously saying, 'Come on, Wild Kid, you need to come along and learn how to charm girls from your Hammer Brother.'
These words piqued Luo Ye's interest.
On the other side,
Su Ba Zhou returned to the female dormitory to fetch her daily necessities that she hadn't taken to the faculty building.
Now, only she and Qin Yuwen were in the dorm; the other two were either starting businesses or interning, so they weren't on campus.
Qin Yuwen was the type with rich parents, so she was still slacking off.
After tidying up, Su Ba Zhou sat on the chair, chin propped on her hands, lost in thought.
To think, that stammerer hadn't sent her a message yet.
You added me, why should I have to take the initiative to message you?
Su Bai Zhou opened the chat interface with Luo Ye and sent the first message: Who are you?
Luo Ye's phone was in his pocket.
He was in the mall, intently watching Wang Dachui flirting.
The long-legged Lolita Liu Bingxin's beauty goes without saying, but her roommate is even more stunning, none other than the freshman campus beauty of their college, Tang Enqi.
She is also the goddess Luo Ye secretly admired for three years in high school.
How embarrassing, I should have known better than to come.
Both girls were clearly well-dressed; one in a short denim skirt showing off her long legs, the other in an elegant long dress like a little fairy.
Walking down the street, they turned many heads.
However, on either side of the two girls stood Li Haoyang, a muscular hunk, and Wang Dachui, who looked somewhat sly.
Luo Ye, standing next to Wang Dachui, kept his head down and said nothing.
The combination of two girls and three men made many men who wanted to chat with them think twice.
Hearing the message notification, Luo Ye took out his phone and saw Su Bai Zhou's message.
The fairy senior asked who he was... It makes sense, she doesn't know him yet.
This being his first online interaction with the fairy senior, Luo Ye's heart pounded wildly.
He extended his hand and typed in the chat interface: I'm Luo Ye.
Then, he thought it was too official a reply.
Remembering that he had followed the fairy senior's popularity at Jiangda University today, Luo Ye added: I'm your fan.
Upon receiving the message, Su Bai Zhou's lips curled slightly, and her slender fingers began typing on the screen.
Su Bai Zhou: I'm not a celebrity; I don't need fans.
Seeing this, Luo Ye's heart skipped a beat.
Don't need fans... Does that mean she doesn't need him?
Is he about to be blocked?
Luo Ye was conflicted, unsure how to respond next.
Seeing no reply from the other side, Su Bai Zhou wondered if she had scared the stammerer.
The next moment, her QQ received a message.
Luo Ye: [Chat screenshot] Luo Ye: Senior Qin, I'm done... Seeing this, Su Bai Zhou couldn't help but laugh.
