Although the unexpected ending of the competition caught everyone off guard, when Chang Bai really stepped onto the stage and stood next to Su Ling…
“I have to say, they really look good together!”
“Standing side by side like this, it’s pleasing to the eye.”
“Oh no, I feel like I’m about to climb over the wall…”
“Suddenly realized, any two transfer students can be paired up, and they all inexplicably look good together? Handsome people truly have an advantage!”
Sheng Ze’s face darkened as he listened to these discussions.
Meng Xiaoman sympathetically looked at Sheng Ze from behind, full of emotion, “I really want to ask him what it feels like to dig his own grave.”
Shi Kongzang remained silent for a moment before responding, “If you just ask, you’ll immediately understand that feeling.”
Meng Xiaoman: … I’d rather not, thanks.
Regardless of what people thought, the fact that Chang Bai and Su Ling were going on a date for a day was already set in stone.
Some students, eager for gossip, even went as far as creating a date itinerary and entrusted Ai Xi to pass it on.
Su Ling and Chang Bai sat side by side, dumbfounded as they looked at the paper filled with detailed plans.
“It’s a whole day’s schedule for your date, just follow what’s written here.” Ai Xi pushed her glasses up, a glint of mischief in her eyes.
“Share a cotton candy, enjoy the unique strawberry-flavored mood.”
Su Ling couldn’t help but exclaim after reading a line, “Ai Xi, I never knew you had such a girly side!”
Ai Xi smiled, not hiding anything, “This was everyone’s collective wisdom, at least all the girls in our class participated.”
Su Ling was at a loss for words, stunned for a moment before angrily saying, “Everyone’s just too idle.”
Ai Xi added, “Especially those few of your employees, they participated the most enthusiastically.”
Su Ling: …
Truly, everyone was just too idle!
Boss Su silently made up his mind to make them all work overtime when they returned!
“Forget the rest, what does it mean to give Su Ling a flower crown of love?” Chang Bai pointed to one of the items, looking puzzled.
Ai Xi patiently explained, “This is connected to the previous item. You first go to the park to pick flowers, then you weave the wildflowers into a flower crown…”
“Wait a minute,” Su Ling glanced out the window and couldn’t help but interrupt, “In the dead of winter, where do you expect us to pick flowers in a park?”
Ai Xi blinked and said, “If you can’t find any, just buy them from a flower shop.”
Su Ling facepalmed, feeling a headache coming on.
Chang Bai, unwilling to give up, checked the other items.
From having a meal, strolling around, watching a movie, to riding a Ferris wheel, the list contained a variety of activities. Most awkwardly, Ai Xi also made a request for others to spectate.
Imagining himself, in the quiet street, gently placing the bright red flower crown on Boss Su’s head.
Behind them, a group of teenagers captured this scene with their phones, *click, click*…
The image was too beautiful, he dared not think about it!
Chang Bai turned to Su Ling and seriously made a groundbreaking suggestion, “Boss, let’s elope.”
Su Ling: …
Passing by, Sheng Ze: Huh? Wait, did I just hear something?
After Su Ling and Chang Bai insisted on negotiating, Ai Xi finally agreed to delete some particularly embarrassing items from the list.
However, even after that, the final list still contained over twenty items – almost as long as Sheng Ze’s green face these days.
Finally, on the day of the date, Chang Bai and Su Ling met at the school gate. They looked at each other, the atmosphere slightly awkward.
“We’ve worked together for so long, and this is the first time we’ve gone out together,” Chang Bai awkwardly scratched his nose.
“That’s because you and Chang Wu are always stuck together, I basically never see you two apart,” Su Ling teased.
But thanks to his teasing, the inexplicable awkwardness dissipated.
Chang Bai raised an eyebrow and smiled, “We’re separated now, aren’t we?”
“Let’s go,” Su Ling shook his head, realizing it was all just for a fun day out, “Why are we feeling so awkward about this?”
Chang Bai nodded in agreement, “Let’s play along, satisfy the classmates, and then we can call it a day.”
Su Ling responded and then pulled out the date schedule, saying, “The first item, both of us will depart from the campus and walk to the Garden Cinema. During the walk, the two of us need to…”
Su Ling’s voice suddenly faltered.
“What do we need?” Chang Bai asked in confusion.
Su Ling remained silent for a moment, feeling stifled, before finally saying, “We need to hold hands.”
Chang Bai: …
Behind the two of them, a group of BL fangirls hid behind a big tree, secretly peeking at their actions, clutching their handkerchiefs and squealing –
“According to the schedule, they should be holding hands now.”
“Exciting!”
“So looking forward to this!”
After a while, Su Ling and Chang Bai were still standing there, staring at each other.
“Why is everything so slow, why aren’t they doing anything?”
“They’re so indecisive, no wonder they don’t have boyfriends.”
“Exactly, it’s just holding hands, acting all hesitant like momma’s boys.”
The last sentence was from Shi Kongzang.
The BL fangirls looked at Shi Kongzang, who had mysteriously joined them, with subtle expressions on their faces.
Shi Kongzang, puzzled, scratched his head and said, “Did I say something wrong?”
“Totally wrong, big mistake.”
“We’re not waiting for them to hold hands.”
The girls explained in a flurry –
“We’re waiting for Sheng Ze and Chang Wu to show up!”
“Yes, if they don’t show up soon, those two will end up holding hands! Can they endure that?”
“If they can endure this, they must have the patience of a saint!”
“Cowards! How will they ever get married if they’re this cowardly?”
Shi Kongzang was feeling a bit confused, “What are you all talking about…”
In the end, it was Ai Xi who patted Shi Kongzang’s shoulder and pointed to his diagonal front, reminding him, “Sheng Ze and Chang Wu are over there, can you see them?”
Shi Kongzang had good eyesight, and with a casual glance, he spotted Sheng Ze and Chang Wu in the distance.
Both were dressed in black, one holding a pair of binoculars and the other wearing a hat and a mask, sneakily following Su Ling and Chang Bai from afar, looking quite shady.
Shi Kongzang found himself at a loss for words for a moment.
A ghost king and a grim reaper, being forced into peeping like this!
The power of love (and meddling) truly made one sigh.
“I made a mistake at the competition. Later, I found out that he and he, he and he, were the real pairs.” Ai Xi lowered her head, twiddling her fingers, seeming quite self-blaming about the situation.
“But, we only realized later on. Compared to the normal date we had planned before, isn’t this love quadrangle chaos much more entertaining?” Another girl beside her flashed a toothy grin, laughing with deep meaning.
Shi Kongzang was stunned for a moment, then vigorously nodded, joining the peeping team, muttering, “Wow, this is so thrilling… count me in!”
Meanwhile, Su Ling glanced at the list again and suddenly spoke up, “Actually, do we really have to follow their plan?”
Chang Bai nodded in agreement, “Yeah, initially we just had to pick the participants, they didn’t say we had to follow their date arrangements.”
Su Ling breathed a sigh of relief, nonchalantly tore up the paper, saying, “In that case, why bother with it?”
Chang Bai grinned and stepped forward, “Some of the suggestions are pretty good. Let’s go try them out.”
Su Ling raised an eyebrow, “Are you serious?”
Chang Bai turned back, his gaze casually sweeping over Chang Wu, who was trailing behind them, his smile deepening, “If we don’t do anything, do you really think those girls will let us off the hook?”
Taken in by Chang Bai’s persuasion, Su Ling followed along somewhat dazedly.
Sheng Ze, gritting his teeth from behind, muttered, “So shameless, actually trying to flirt with Su Ling!”
Chang Wu subtly furrowed his brow, his tone cold with a hint of displeasure, “It’s none of Chang Bai’s business.”
If you hadn’t been messing around so much behind the scenes, things wouldn’t have ended up like this.
In the end, under the gaze of the ghost king, Chang Wu couldn’t bring himself to say the rest of that sentence.
Sheng Ze, with a dark expression, held back for a while, eventually letting out a cold snort.
Chang Bai and Su Ling went to watch a movie and had lunch together. Both of them were the type to enjoy laughter, and throughout the trip, the overall atmosphere remained very friendly and harmonious.
However, during the movie, Su Ling couldn’t shake the feeling of someone lurking behind them.
Su Ling and Chang Bai sat in the front rows of the cinema, chatting and laughing, sharing a bucket of popcorn, creating a very pleasant atmosphere.
Meanwhile, in the back rows of the same screening room, Sheng Ze and Chang Wu sat side by side, their expressions heavy and seemingly competing over who could look the grumpiest.
As the movie reached its climax…
Su Ling and Chang Bai were laughing uncontrollably, rolling around in their seats with laughter, “Hahaha!”
Sheng Ze with a cold face: “Hmph.”
Chang Wu with a cold face: “Huh.”
The students watching from a distance sat in the corner, biting their handkerchiefs –
“These two pairs watching the movie don’t seem like they’re in the same film!”
“Oh my, this jealousy scene is so exciting.”
“Oh no, I unexpectedly find this combination of sunshine x sunshine, aloof x aloof hitting my cute spot…”
“Forget it, when two tops meet, one must yield, when two bottoms meet, it’s just platonic, so there’s no future for this cute cult!”
“True, but why does Su Ling and Chang Bai have to be the bottoms1this monk is asking all the right questions?” Shi Kongzang couldn’t help but interject, fearing the peace.
The classmates collectively fell into silence…
They all felt like the wall they were standing on was getting a bit dangerous!
After the movie, sitting in the restaurant, Su Ling turned back for the hundred and fifth time.
Chang Bai chuckled, “Why do you keep looking back?”
Su Ling rubbed the back of his neck, puzzled, “I just feel like someone is following us.”
Chang Bai shrugged it off, “Didn’t Ai Xi mention earlier that they would be observing the whole time?”
Su Ling pondered for a few seconds and shook his head, “No, this gaze doesn’t feel as friendly…”
At his words, Chang Bai hesitated, squinting slightly as his eyes casually shot a warning glance at Chang Wu.
“Sir, here’s your cucumber juice.”
The waiter timely served the dish, interrupting their conversation.
“Thank you.” Chang Bai took the cucumber juice and took a sip.
Suddenly, his face contorted for a moment, struggling to maintain his expression, barely avoiding a spontaneous “on-the-spot death scene”.
“What’s wrong?” Su Ling noticed his change in complexion and started to worry.
“N-nothing…” Chang Bai managed to squeeze out the words through difficulty.
Su Ling: ?!
“Chang Bai, why do I smell a strong scent of mustard…” Su Ling uncertainly inquired.
Chang Bai forced a smile, “Probably someone trying to play a prank on me.”
Su Ling: … Who’s being so childish?
Meanwhile, Chang Wu was coldly questioning Sheng Ze, “What did you give him to eat?”
“Just some mustard. Detoxifying and good for the skin, won’t kill him.” Sheng Ze replied coolly.
Chang Wu’s expression changed noticeably, showing signs of concern.
Sheng Ze snorted and slammed the mini ghost king sword on the table.
Chang Wu calmly changed his tone, “Having a bit of mustard is really not a big deal.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sheng Ze heard Su Ling’s exclamation from afar.
Su Ling: “Who added soy sauce to my orange juice?!”
Sheng Ze narrowed his eyes, locking gazes with Chang Wu.
Chang Wu raised an eyebrow with a hint of provocation.
Sheng Ze smiled lightly, completely unfazed.
The mischievous spirit provokes, and the innocent boss suffers.
During this meal, Chang Bai and Su Ling unknowingly ate a variety of strange things. What was supposed to be a normal lunch turned into a heart-pounding experience for them.
Finally, feeling mentally exhausted, Su Ling walked out of the restaurant and asked Chang Bai, “Where to for our last stop?”
After pondering for two seconds, Chang Bai replied, “Let’s go ride the Ferris wheel.”
Whether it was a misconception or not, Su Ling couldn’t shake the feeling that the air around them seemed colder after those words were spoken.
They wandered around for a while and eventually arrived at the location of the Ferris wheel.
At the moment the doors of the Ferris wheel closed, Su Ling felt a twinge of regret.
Each compartment was only a few square meters in size, particularly enclosed.
Especially with both of them being over 1.75 meters tall, in such a small space, even sitting across from each other, some physical contact was unavoidable – their long legs feeling like they had nowhere to go for the first time.
After entering, Chang Bai didn’t seem awkward at all. Instead, he comfortably rested his chin on his hand, gazing out the window.
Following his gaze, Su Ling looked outside.
“How did they get here?” Su Ling saw Sheng Ze and Chang Wu, with stern faces, walking into the compartment behind them.
Emotions churned in Chang Bai’s eyes, his thoughts a mystery. Hearing Su Ling’s exclamation, he simply chuckled softly and said, “You’re just realizing? They’ve been following us the whole way.”
Su Ling began to doubt life, “Following us the whole way? Do they really need to be so gleeful? Wait, they’re riding the Ferris wheel together, could it be that they’re together?!”
Chang Bai couldn’t help but burst into laughter, “Boss, you really are…”
Su Ling rubbed the back of his head.
Chang Bai laughed almost uncontrollably. Just as he was about to speak during a momentary pause, there was a “click”, and the entire Ferris wheel came to a stop.
The sky outside suddenly darkened, with thick clouds looming overhead, raindrops pattering against the glass windows, shrouding everything in darkness.
