Chapter 97: What Are You Thinking About
After being worn out all morning, Su Moyu finally felt a bit better.
Bai Shuchuan took her around the hospital, got her medicine, and when they walked out, he reached out and held her hand.
Seeing the medicine bag in his other hand, and feeling how weak her body was, Su Moyu suddenly felt that Bai Shuchuan was more like… a caring father taking his child to see a doctor.
“Let’s eat outside for lunch,” Bai Shuchuan said, glancing at the street across from them. “How about some porridge?”
Su Moyu nodded. Right now, she didn’t really feel like eating anything.
She still had classes in the afternoon. After all this, she still had to go back, and later she would have to work hard at the logistics warehouse.
Suddenly, she felt a bit sad. The college life she imagined in high school wasn’t like this at all.
At that moment, Bai Shuchuan suddenly coughed a couple of times, making her alert right away.
“Bai Shuchuan, did I actually infect you?”
He slowly walked with her across the street.
“I don’t think so. It’s not that easy to catch it from you,” he said, and they walked into a shop together.
After sitting down, Su Moyu took out her phone and scanned the QR code to order.
“That’s good. It would be bad if I’m just getting better and you end up sick.”
Bai Shuchuan smiled lightly. “Then if I get sick, will you take care of me?”
Su Moyu widened her eyes and brushed the hair away from her face.
“Do I look like a cold and heartless person?”
His tone immediately softened.
“Of course not.”
She snorted lightly. “Then why ask? Of course I’ll take good care of you.”
He looked at her face, and seeing her pout, he smiled a little.
“Okay,” he replied.
Su Moyu, a bit annoyed, pushed her phone toward him.
“Order whatever you want yourself,” she said coldly.
Bai Shuchuan quietly took her phone, and then heard her add,
“I’ll show you just how ‘cold and heartless’ I am.”
His smile grew even bigger.
No matter what, with Su Moyu’s sweet voice, there was no way he could see her as cold.
“What are you smiling at?” she complained.
“Because you’re cute.”
“Tch....”
Her voice became noticeably softer.
………………
After eating, they went their separate ways. Bai Shuchuan didn’t have classes in the afternoon but had a shift at the convenience store. Su Moyu had to carry the medicine back to the dorm by herself. For the next few days, she probably wouldn’t be staying in the dorm.
After all, with her current condition, she couldn’t do certain… unspeakable things.
“Oh right, your package has arrived. Check it when you go to work later,” Bai Shuchuan reminded her as he handed her the bag.
Su Moyu frowned. Did she even order anything recently?
Seeing her confused expression, Bai Shuchuan just patted her head.
And when he did that, Su Moyu suddenly remembered…
They had bought… some kind of “special” item before.
Why was it delivered to the school?!
Bai Shuchuan was really careless.
She complained about him silently in her heart.
“Then I’m off to work,” he said.
“Mm,” Su Moyu replied softly, carrying the bag as she walked toward the girls’ dorm.
She freed one hand to check her phone and saw that the group chat was already full of messages…
She still wasn’t used to replying in group chats like this.
“Susu, what happened to you?!” Zhou Ya tagged her in the group and also sent her a private message.
“My throat got inflamed this morning, so I went to get an IV drip,” Su Moyu replied. Qu Xintong and Yan Hanyue also sent her messages.
It seemed like she was actually quite popular in her dorm…
Su Moyu felt a little proud inside and suddenly had the illusion that she was very popular with everyone.
When she walked back into the dorm, she happened to see Zhou Ya peeling a pomelo. As Su Moyu came in with a bag of medicine, Zhou Ya handed her a piece, like a teacher giving out candy.
“Thanks,” Su Moyu said casually, then sat down at her desk.
Thinking about it, when she and Zhou Ya were dating before, Zhou Ya was always the one peeling the pomelo for her.
At that moment, Qu Xintong came in with a portion of spicy hot pot from the school. The lunch break was short, and she happened to have the same elective class as Qu Xinlong…
Even though Su Moyu had just eaten, the smell of chili oil still made her crave it.
But she didn’t feel too jealous, since Zhou Ya had just given her a piece of pomelo to satisfy her craving.
“Oh right, Susu, the lab report is due this afternoon. Have you finished it?” someone asked.
“What!?”
Su Moyu shouted in shock. She had just turned on Bai Shuchuan’s computer and was about to play a few rounds of Plants vs. Zombies to relax.
“Can I copy yours?” she quickly pulled out her lab report from the shelf. But she moved too fast, books fell down all at once, hitting the table with loud thuds.
She quickly tried to hold them, but a bottle on the table, she didn’t even know what it was, fell to the ground and shattered with a sharp sound.
Su Moyu froze for a moment, then hurriedly gathered the books on the table.
“I’m done for, I’m done for…” she muttered, panicking as she cleaned up, completely unaware of the shocked looks from Zhou Ya and Yan Hanyue.
She quickly went to sweep up the broken glass on the floor.
“Susu… do you know what you just broke?” Yan Hanyue asked.
Hearing that, Su Moyu’s heart sank.
“What… was it?”
She looked at the wet floor and the broken glass pieces that had already been thrown into the trash.
“That bottle of ‘miracle water’ cost 400 yuan, don’t you remember??” Zhou Ya gasped.
“What!?”
Su Moyu felt like her heart dropped.
Wait… didn’t the original Su Moyu not even use makeup?!
Then why was something so expensive on her desk?!
Now she was completely confused…
“It’s okay, don’t cry over spilled ‘miracle water’…” she said calmly, but her brain had already stopped working.
It’s fine… she doesn’t use makeup anyway, so it doesn’t affect her much.
That’s how she tried to comfort herself.
But the comfort felt weak. Her already dull afternoon became even worse because of this…
So annoying.
After cleaning everything up, it was almost time for class.
She felt like she was about to go crazy.
She wouldn’t see Bai Shuchuan again until the evening…
And tonight, she couldn’t even cling to him and sleep in his arms…
The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she felt.
When the medicine wore off in a few days…
Suddenly, someone tapped her shoulder, pulling her back to reality.
“Let’s go to class. Susu, why are you daydreaming?”
Her face turned red, and she quickly pushed away all the messy thoughts in her mind.
