On a rainy night, the school beauty knocked on my door and asked for shelter

[Because some readers have such wildly unbelievable thought processes, I'll just briefly explain the ending of the last chapter.

The protagonist's original intention was simply to hope that the person he likes could live a more authentic life, instead of clinging to him like a shadow or puppet as if they had no soul of their own.

Some people actually saw this as a turtle?

Disgusting, isn't it?

]If Chu Yunfan invited the female lead out alone, and you said the protagonist agreed, you could say he was being cowardly.

But he invited her to a student council activity, which isn't a one-person event.

How can you call that cowardly?

I don't know if these people are extremely insecure or have an abnormally high desire for control!

Readers choose books, and books choose readers.

Those who can read it can read it; those who can't, don't bother.

As for the particularly radical individuals, if they have psychological issues, I suggest they see a psychiatrist.

Don't leave your outrageous comments to disgust the author and other readers.

Thank you.

……Su Yuqing was immersed in Chen Mo's sincere and profound words, her heart surging with emotion.

She looked at him with slightly red eyes, all the words she wanted to say condensed between their intertwined fingers.

Only through this person could she clearly feel how someone is cherished and deeply loved.

This love is not a constraint, but a support, a hope that she will become better and more complete.

“Chen Mo…” Her voice was slightly choked, with a strong nasal tone.

Chen Mo chuckled softly, took out a handkerchief with his free hand, and gently wiped away the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes.

He said gently, "Silly girl, why are you crying?

"Su Yuqing changed her mood and suddenly kissed him.

This scene was witnessed by several people nearby.

Chen Mo was slightly taken aback by her sudden, proactive kiss, but then his eyes filled with tenderness.

He naturally responded to the kiss, but since it was in broad daylight and in front of everyone, his kiss was still relatively gentle and restrained.

On this spacious rooftop, the sunlight and gentle breeze became witnesses to their sweet moment.

However, this beautiful scene was nothing short of a sweet bomb dropped on the "onlookers" not far away!

"Ugh—!

" Lin Xiaoxiao was the first to notice.

She gasped sharply, her eyes widening instantly.

Almost instinctively, she covered her mouth tightly, forcing back the scream that was about to escape her lips.

But she was so excited that she stomped her feet and frantically patted Zhou Yue's arm next to her with her other hand.

"Mmm!

Mmm!

" she mumbled indistinctly, gesturing frantically in that direction with her eyes.

Zhou Yue was admiring the scenery when Lin Xiaoxiao took the picture, which left her completely bewildered.

When she turned around and saw the picture, she froze instantly, followed by a huge, almost manic, excited smile that burst onto her face.

She reacted very quickly, covering her mouth like Lin Xiaoxiao, but her eyes were even bigger than Lin Xiaoxiao's, sparkling with the extremely excited light of "I've hit something".

She grabbed Lin Xiaoxiao's hand, and the two girls instantly twisted into a ball in silence, expressing their surging excitement with exaggerated body movements, just like two wind-up dancing toys.

Even Zhao Ya, who is usually quiet and reserved, blushed instantly upon seeing this scene.

She looked away slightly, a little embarrassed, but couldn't help but smile up, revealing a shy yet happy smile for her friend.

She felt it would be impolite to keep looking, but the sweet atmosphere made her want to secretly watch out of the corner of her eye.

Shen Xinghe took in the reactions of the three girls, a faint smile flashing across his beautiful peach blossom eyes, as if he found the scene before him quite amusing.

His gaze lingered on Chen Mo and Su Yuqing for a moment.

Seeing Chen Mo's careful and protective manner and Su Yuqing's complete devotion, the usual ambiguous curve of his lips deepened slightly, before he returned to his calm and indifferent expression, as if he were simply admiring a beautiful scene.

He even very "thoughtfully" turned his body slightly to the side, seemingly to get a better view of the scenery, but in reality to give the couple a more undisturbed space and to shield them from Zhou Yue and Lin Xiaoxiao's overly "enthusiastic" gaze.

The kiss didn't last long.

Su Yuqing was shy after all, and quickly realized that they were in a public place after taking the initiative.

She blushed and stepped back, but her forehead was still intimately pressed against Chen Mo's forehead.

She was breathing slightly, her eyes glistening with tears, full of shyness and love.

Chen Mo chuckled softly, gently stroking her flushed cheeks with his thumb, his eyes filled with such doting affection that they could drown a person.

Only then did they faintly hear the suppressed, yet still leaking, excited whimpering and stomping sounds, like little mice, coming from the side.

Su Yuqing looked in the direction of the sound, and met the eyes of Zhou Yue and Lin Xiaoxiao in the distance, which were shining with excitement and filled with the words, "We saw it!

We all saw it!

"When the two clowns saw her looking over, they immediately made a "You guys continue!

We didn't see anything!

" expression, but their wildly upturned lips and winking completely betrayed them.

Su Yuqing's face instantly turned bright red, like a ripe tomato.

She let out a soft "Ah!

" and buried her face in Chen Mo's chest, too shy to look up.

The warmth of Su Yuqing nestled in Chen Mo's arms was transmitted through the thin fabric of her clothes, carrying the unique fragrance and shyness of a young girl.

Chen Mo was amused by his roommates' exaggerated reactions.

He laughed and hugged his girlfriend tightly, giving her a look that was both helpless and amused, as if to say, "Alright, stop teasing her.

"The wind on the rooftop was still gentle, the sun was shining brightly, and the youthful love and playful friendship intertwined to create a most vivid and beautiful picture.

Shen Xinghe had turned around completely at some point, his back to them, leaning against the railing, seemingly focused on the distant campus skyline.

However, the way he was slightly tilting his ear revealed that he was not completely oblivious to the sounds behind him.

He tapped his fingertips lightly on the railing, the rhythm slow and gentle; no one knew what he was thinking at that moment.

This little incident passed quickly.

Su Yuqing lifted her head from Chen Mo's embrace.

Although her cheeks were still flushed, her eyes had regained their clarity.

However, she was too embarrassed to look at her roommate again.

The two smiled at each other, and the air was filled with a sweet atmosphere.

She gently tugged at Chen Mo's sleeve: "Shall we...

go take a look over there?

I heard that you can see the school's Mirror Moon Lake from the other side.

""Okay.

" Chen Mo readily agreed, smiling as he took her hand, their fingers naturally intertwined—a gesture he was already quite adept at.

The two walked in the opposite direction from Chu Yunfan, deliberately keeping a distance from their roommates, enjoying a rare moment of alone time together.

The wind on the rooftop seemed to favor them, gently brushing against their hair and clothes.

They leaned against the railing, overlooking the campus scenery, talking quietly and sharing their small plans for the future.

The subtle tension that Chu Yunfan had brought earlier seemed to have been blown away by the wind.

However, Chen Mo would occasionally glance in Chu Yunfan's direction out of the corner of his eye.

That senior student, on the surface, seemed sunny, open, and well-mannered, beyond reproach.

However, Chen Mo's intuition, honed over many years as a criminal investigator, allowed him to catch that fleeting scrutiny and the overly "natural" eagerness with which he invited Su Yuqing.

This is an almost instinctive vigilance.

Chu Yunfan walked to the other side of the rooftop, raised his camera, and seemingly took a serious picture, but the lens casually swept across the distant couple who were cuddling and enjoying the scenery.

Through the telephoto lens, he could clearly see the happy yet slightly shy smile on Su Yuqing's face, and the almost overwhelming tenderness in Chen Mo's eyes as he looked down at her.
