From then on, the campus gained a pair of dazzling, human-shaped love wave emitters…

In the classroom.

During the lesson, Su Bai and Lin Xiao sat together as usual.

Su Bai lowered his head, taking notes. His hair, a little longer than before, slightly covered his handsome side profile.

As the teacher turned to write on the board, Lin Xiao suddenly raised his hand and brushed Su Bai’s hair back. Then he leaned in and quickly placed a light kiss on the small patch of exposed skin.

Su Bai, who was concentrating on his notes, was startled by the unexpected gesture. His eyes widened in confusion, like a clueless but adorable little animal.

Lin Xiao curved one side of his lips into a mischievous smile, pointed at his own face, and mouthed, “Kiss me.”

Su Bai blinked, still dazed, and gave him a kiss.

Just then, the teacher, having finished writing on the board, turned around: …

Su Bai: …

Lin Xiao: chuckles

Teacher, “Su Bai, can you answer the question on the board?”

Su Bai wiped his hot, flushed face and stood up, smoothly giving the correct answer.

After all, a top student was still a top student.

Teacher: “… Sit down. Mhmm. Pay attention to the class discipline.”

Lin Xiao rested his head on the desk, laughing quietly to himself—totally mischievous.

At the student activity center.

The arts club was busy preparing for the upcoming arts performance.

Lin Xiao, along with a few boys and girls from the arts club, was rehearsing a modern dance. They practiced late into the night every day. Su Bai, holding a book, moved a chair to the corner of the activity room, sitting quietly to watch and keep Lin Xiao company.

After a round of practice, Lin Xiao wiped his sweat and walked over: “If it’s boring here, you can head back to the dorm. You don’t have to stay with me.”

Su Bai shook the Das Kapital in his hand and said, “It’s interesting reading here.”

Lin Xiao, already used to Su Bai’s reading habits, calmly asked, “Is the music too loud for you?”

Su Bai shook his head, looking serious. “□□ once read in the middle of a busy marketplace to cultivate a peaceful mind. I need to learn this kind of spirit too.”

Lin Xiao shook his head with a smile, pulling a chair to sit next to Su Bai. His tired head rested on Su Bai’s shoulder, his long legs swinging back and forth, occasionally brushing against Su Bai’s leg. His fingers couldn’t stay still—now and then, he’d touch Su Bai’s face, pinch his ear, or tug at his hair…

It was almost as if he had the energy of a child with ADHD.

Su Bai closed his book. “What are you doing?”

Lin Xiao grinned mischievously. “Aren’t you trying to cultivate calmness? I’m just helping you.”

Su Bai also flashed a faint smile. “Having you next to me makes it harder to focus than a hundred bustling markets.”

Lin Xiao stared at him in disbelief. “What the hell, are you flirting with me?”

Su Bai tilted his head innocently. “No, I’m just sharing my honest feelings.”

Lin Xiao’s eyes gleamed with excitement. “You dare flirt with me and then deny it? Just wait till tonight.”

Su Bai’s face instantly turned bright red. “What are you saying? Keep it down!”

Lin Xiao looked up and noticed that all the classmates in the activity room were staring at them, unable to look away.

Classmates: …

Damn, the daily torture! Even dogs have dignity, you know!

Su Bai was working overtime in the publicity department, painting a promotional board. He didn’t even have time to eat lunch.

Lin Xiao brought some of Su Bai’s favorite food to find him. Su Bai was busy with the department members in front of a huge promotional board.

The senior who had been embarrassed last time was also there, as they all had to work together.

When Su Bai saw Lin Xiao arrive, his face almost instantly lit up: “You’re here.”

The senior quietly watched them.

Lin Xiao lightly coughed, walked over, and placed the lunchbox on the chair beside Su Bai. He opened it, picked up a piece of braised pork with disposable chopsticks, and gently held it near Su Bai’s lips, saying softly, “You do your drawing, and I’ll feed you.”

Su Bai found this suggestion quite reasonable, as he was in a hurry with his drawing, so he opened his mouth generously and ate. After finishing, he directed, “Another bite of rice.”

Lin Xiao picked up some rice and fed it to Su Bai.

Su Bai chewed with his cheeks puffed up and said, “I want mushrooms too.”

Lin Xiao, with deep affection, picked up a piece of mushroom and fed it to him.

The other members of the club who were still hungry and still working, immediately declared, “We’re not doing this anymore!”

“We’re working on empty stomachs and still getting tortured!”

The senior was even worse off, he even drew a crooked line. Under the scorn of the team members, he grit his teeth and covered it up with white paint.

Lin Xiao, on the other hand, was smug.
