night,
Bai Yuze rode his electric scooter, weaving through the crowds, and after searching for a long time using the unethical map, he finally found the barbecue restaurant he had arranged to meet Peng Liang.
As soon as he got out of the car and saw a familiar figure, Bai Yuze handed over the document bag in a red plastic bag.
"What is this guy? He insisted on asking me out late at night, making it seem like we're meeting up for something bad."
Peng Liang complained as he took the tightly wrapped file folder, his face showing some confusion. "What is this? Why is it wrapped up so securely?"
His professionalism as a staff member prevented him from opening it directly here.
"I don't know either, someone asked me to give this to you." Bai Yuze poured himself a glass of coconut juice.
"You dare to accept things you don't know? Aren't you afraid they might be dangerous items?" Peng Liang joked.
"An old man in the nursing home gave it to me, what's there to be afraid of?" Bai Yuze shook his head and said.
"It's probably food. Tell me, Brother Bai, what brings you out so late at night? It can't just be to deliver this, right?"
Peng Liang weighed it in his hand, casually tossed the bright red plastic bag into his handbag, and didn't think much of it.
"It's been so long since we last met. Is it a problem to ask you out for some barbecue?" Bai Yuze rolled his eyes at him.
"Ha, I'd rather believe the sun rises in the west than believe you," Peng Liang said with utter disdain.
"It's nothing serious. Have you heard of the Wenyue Orphanage?"
"I vaguely remember. I glanced at it when I was organizing the files. It was a very small orphanage. What's up?" Peng Liang looked at Bai Yuzhe with some suspicion, not understanding why the other party would suddenly bring up an orphanage.
"I'm planning to bring all the children from the Wenyue Orphanage to the Yeqiu City Nursing Home for integration. What do you think of this plan?"
Peng Liang pondered for a moment, then slowly said:
"This plan has been considered before. In theory, the integration of nursing homes and orphanages may have certain advantages, but in practice, it is easy to encounter many difficulties, such as resource allocation, operation model, and legal issues. However, now that the Kuroshio crisis has broken out and various resources are scarce, your idea is worth a try."
"Okay then." Bai Yuze nodded.
"Tell me honestly, what are you trying to do with all this and that?"
After Bai Yuzhe said that, Peng Liang had even more doubts. Based on his understanding of Bai Yuzhe, the other party did not seem to be the kind of person who liked to get involved in various social events.
"Ahem, it's because I found a girlfriend. Now I'm also the director of Wenyue Orphanage, and a teacher at Qiuyuan No. 1 Middle School." Bai Yuze suddenly laughed as he looked at Peng Liang, who was puzzled.
.....ah?""
Peng Liang was stunned for a while before slowly revealing a knowing smile: "Hehehe, no wonder you asked me out for barbecue so late at night, you just wanted to show off. Hahaha, can you tell me how you won over your wife? Did Little Chili help you?"
"Are you kidding? Do I need Xiaoqing's help to pursue a girlfriend? I can do it myself!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Peng Liang burst into laughter upon seeing Bai Yuzhe's reaction. He knew that Bai Youqing must have contributed a lot to this.
"spray!"
"Brother, you're hopeless!"
This was the first thing Bai Yuze heard when he returned home at night.
Inside the hall, a young girl was wolfing down a small loaf of bread in one hand and a cup of milk in the other.
"What's wrong?"
Bai Yuze took off his shoes and socks and looked at his younger sister with a puzzled expression. He remembered that he had left money at home.
Why does my little sister look like she hasn't eaten for three days and three nights?
"From childhood to adulthood, I've never seen anyone take a girl to an orphanage or nursing home on a date!"
Bai Youqing struggled to swallow the food in her mouth. For the first time in her life, she began to worry about her brother's emotional intelligence.
Even though my brother and Hoshino-sensei are together now, with my brother's pathetic straight-man emotional intelligence, it's not certain that they'll last.
really,
My silly brother can't do without me.
Bai Youqing thought to herself, ignoring her brother's hateful expression, she lay down on the sofa, silently turned on her phone, and began searching for movie tickets for tomorrow.
Horror, romance, psychological...
Her clear, bright eyes searched through the various categories, mainly considering what kind of movies Hoshino-sensei liked to watch.
As for his older brother's hobbies?
That's not important at all.
"Stop looking and come eat. I was wondering why I felt like someone was following me all day. Turns out it was you."
Turn off the range hood.
Bai Yuze set out the bowls and chopsticks filled with rice.
"Oh." Bai Youqing came running over as soon as she smelled the aroma; the little bit of food she had just eaten wasn't enough to whet her appetite.
She was starving all day.
When they eat, it's as fast as a whirlwind destroying a parking lot.
While eating, Bai Yuzhe saw the movie ticket purchase interface and immediately thought of his sister's plan. His heart warmed, and he chuckled, "I've already bought the movie tickets: a couple's ticket and a front-row VIP ticket."
"what?"
Bai Youqing suddenly raised her head, looking at her older brother with a surprised and suspicious expression.
The sun rose in the west?
"What's all the fuss about? Just focus on your studies, I don't need a little kid like you to worry about me."
Bai Yuze rubbed her head and put the few remaining pieces of beef from the vegetable bowl into her bowl.
"Hmph, then why did you even buy me a ticket?"
Bai Youqing snorted coldly, wanting to complain about why her brother had to bring her along as a third wheel on his date, but ultimately didn't say it.
But if they don't go, what if things get out of hand and things escalate? They're so young, they're definitely not ready for this kind of thing.
"I was just afraid you'd be as clueless as you were today, not even knowing to go eat when you're hungry." Bai Yuze rolled his eyes at her, annoyed. "If you don't want to go, I'll cancel your VIP ticket. These tickets weren't cheap anyway!"
"Oh." Bai Youqing lowered her head slightly, and even the spicy beef in her bowl lost its flavor.
These past few days, seeing her brother and Hoshino-sensei getting closer and closer, she originally thought that after making up her mind, she would feel more relaxed.
But for some reason,
A sudden fear gripped her heart, a feeling she had never experienced before. She realized that this wasn't what she wanted; before, all her brother's care had been focused on her alone.
Now there is one more person.
Looking at Mo Duo, whose emotions seemed inexplicably off, Bai Yuze was filled with doubt.
How come I get depressed while eating a meal?
Could it be that my cooking has become unpalatable to my sister?
After hesitating for a moment, he finally asked, "Xiaoqing, is it that the food today didn't suit your taste?"
Bai Youqing raised her eyes and looked at her brother who was looking at her with a worried expression. Her displeasure vanished instantly, but she said without any politeness, "Idiot brother!"
'

He finished his meal in the blink of an eye, didn't even wash the dishes, and rushed straight into his room.
With a bang,
The cartoon image that had been torn off last time was pasted back on by a snow-white little hand.
"Ugh!"
Looking at the tightly closed door, Bai Yuze shook his head in great confusion. A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.
He quickly cleared away the dishes and sent a message to Hoshino Seri:
"Hoshino-sensei, do you have time to go to the movies tomorrow? I heard there are a lot of new movies coming out recently."
Hoshino Seri quickly replied: "Ms. Shiro, do you have any movie recommendations?"
"Your Name, Hotarubi no Mori e, Detachment."
"How about 'Hotarubi no Mori e'?"
"Oh, I thought you, Hoshino-sensei, would choose a psychological film like 'Detachment'."
"No, no, the students at Qiuyuan No. 1 Middle School are all very cute, and their personalities are nothing like theirs."
Upon seeing Hoshino Seri's reply, Bai Yuze couldn't help but think of that problem student, Fei Yue. He felt that the word "cute" didn't quite fit her.
"My lovely Hoshino-sensei, it's a deal then, see you tomorrow!"
"Received, handsome Teacher Bai."
The next day,
Bai Yuze arrived at his destination, but his friend Yimo Duo ultimately did not follow.
There are very few vehicles on the streets. The recent disasters have been too frequent, and all aspects of the city are under control.
Beside a fountain surrounded by flowers, Bai Yuze met Hoshino Seri.
Although he had seen Hoshino Seri dressed up before, he still thought she was really beautiful when he saw her again.
Her face was exquisite and beautiful, her skin as white and delicate as jade, seemingly so smooth it could be squeezed for water. She had a slender and well-proportioned figure, wearing an elegant dress whose hem swayed gently like a blooming flower, her every move exuding a graceful and gentle charm.
"Ms. Hoshino, you look exceptionally beautiful and charming today!" Bai Yuze praised sincerely.
"Mr. Bai, you look especially handsome today!"
"I think so too," Bai Yuze said, stroking his chin with certainty.
Hoshino Seri was a little speechless, but finally blinked and smiled faintly, "Alright, narcissistic Shiro-sensei, besides watching a movie, do we have any other plans for today?"
"Well," Bai Yuze pondered for a moment, then looked at Hoshino Seri and said seriously, "Actually, I mainly wanted to see if Hoshino-sensei had any places she'd like to visit. I'm open to anything."
"..." Hoshino Seri silently turned her head, blinked her cute eyes, and said with a hint of annoyance, "Teacher Shiro is getting lazier and lazier!"
"No, I didn't."
While Bai Yuzhe was giving his weak and feeble explanation, Hoshino Seri had already taken the initiative to lean on him and hug his arm.
"Then, Ms. Bai, please come with me today!"
The two first bought some snacks at a restaurant near the entrance, and then headed towards the nearby movie theater.
The cinema has two floors. The middle section of the lower floor is the VIP section, which was the seat he originally bought for Bai Youqing. However, when he knocked on the door today, the door was tightly closed.
Bai Yuze guessed that his sister probably didn't want to be a third wheel.
The top floor is a couples' seating area specially designed for couples. It is a two-seater sofa with a high backrest and armrests. Once seated, it completely blocks the view of the surroundings, making it impossible to see what is happening inside. Only the front of the seat can see the huge screen.
Because the sofa is very deep, you need to take off your shoes after you get in.
After seeing the location, Hoshino Seri hesitated for a moment and gave Bai Yuze a meaningful look.
He took off his shoes and shuffled inside. His slender legs, encased in white stockings, did not lose their allure in the dim light; on the contrary, they made Bai Yuzhe's mouth dry.
He genuinely didn't know that couple seats were like that; he had always thought they were like the kind in movies where two people sit together.
However, since we're already here, we can't just get a refund, can we?
Moreover, Hoshino Seri didn't say anything.
The film *Hotarubi no Mori e* (Into the Forest of Fireflies' Light) primarily tells the poignant love story between Gin, an immortal young man, and Hotaru Takegawa, a human girl. The protagonists, Gin and Hotaru, meet deep in the mountains, but Gin disappears if touched by a human. Over the years, they develop feelings for each other, and finally, at a spirit festival, Gin disappears after touching a human child. However, the two are finally able to embrace each other.
Bai Youqing had dragged him to see this movie in the cinema before. At that time, her little sister cried so hard that she smeared her tears and snot all over him.
As the atmosphere of the movie was enhanced, the couples around suddenly started moving.
Bai Yuze turned his head to look at Hoshino Seri, only to find that she had also turned to look at him at that moment.
Their intense gazes collided in the mist.
"Hoshino-sensei, I didn't say this last time due to special circumstances, but I'd like to add it this time."
"Teacher Bai, please speak."
"Hoshino-sensei, I like you."
'
.
Hoshino Seri blinked, looking somewhat bewildered.
She seemed prepared for this situation, but her delicate face still quickly flushed crimson.
After a few seconds of silence,
The female teacher didn't reply for a long time, and Bai Yuze's serious face couldn't help but turn somewhat sad: "Ms. Hoshino, are you unwilling? I know you don't like a lazy, clumsy teacher like me."
"Pfft!" Hoshino Seri burst out laughing at Bai Yuze's pretentious performance. "Alright, Mr. Bai, stop acting up!"
In the movie, the moment when Hotaru Takegawa rushed to embrace Gin...
Bai Yuze reached out and pulled the cute and pretty Hoshino Seri into his arms, holding her gently without much force, their bodies only making slight contact.
Hoshino Seri leaned quietly against Bai Yuze's chest and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Teacher Bai, since you know you're a lazybones, you should admit your mistake and correct it. There should be another movie after 'Hotarubi no Mori e', right? Remember to let me know after you watch it. I'm a little tired these past few days, let me rest for a while."
"Mm." Bai Yuzhe nodded, allowing the female teacher to lie quietly on his lap.
The dazzling light and shadow shimmered on his face, and Hoshino Seri was not lying.
Before the ending credits of "Hotarubi no Mori e" had finished playing, the sound of soft breathing could already be heard in his ears.
She fell asleep and didn't wake up throughout the entire movie, until the end, seemingly very tired during that time.
"Hoshino-sensei, wake up."
Looking at the adorable female teacher sleeping soundly on his lap, Bai Yuze thought she was extremely cute.
After the two movies ended, the audience in the cinema began to leave. He picked up a few strands of hair from her cheek and gently scratched her small nose.
"Hmm? Okay." Hoshino Seri rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up.
I tried to put on my shoes in a daze, but I just couldn't get them on properly.
Bai Yuzhe sighed, reached out and grabbed her slender, soft ankle. Her toes, encased in white socks, curled slightly as he accurately slipped them into his shoes.
The latter's body suddenly stiffened, as if someone had struck an acupoint, and he stood there motionless.
Not moving at all.
Hoshino Seri's long, snow-white legs are perfect, with a very even distribution of muscle and fat. Her skin is fair, slender and rounded, and smooth and soft to the touch. She is as beautiful as a rare work of art.
And those fair and tender jade feet looked extremely tempting.
Even though he already had two skins, he still couldn't help but be tempted.
"Teacher Bai."
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
"Um... can you put it down now, Mr. Shiro?" Hoshino Seri, who was reclining on the sofa, finally couldn't help but speak, her words full of shyness.
This look is just too cute.
Bai Yuzhe then realized that his behavior just now had been rather impolite.
"Sorry, I got a little carried away."
"Teacher Bai's quirks are truly hard to describe..."
"No..." Bai Yuzhe wanted to explain further.
Hoshino Seri had already stood up, her slender fingers covering his mouth. "No need to explain, I don't hate you, it's just that I've discovered another secret of Mr. Shiro~"
"Understood. I will definitely keep my secret well hidden from now on and will never let Hoshino-sensei find out again," Bai Yuze said with a wry smile.
It was only at times like these that he would think of this simple and lovely female teacher.
She is not only a math teacher, but also a psychology teacher.
"Then let's go to the park in Dongguan City next." Hoshino Seri stood up, looking as if she had been recharged.
"Huh?" Upon hearing the familiar place name, Bai Yuzhe couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. How come every time he went out, it was always this place, like a persistent ghost?
"Teacher Bai, don't you like going to the park in Dongguan City? Let's go somewhere else then."
"No, I'm just a little surprised. I took my sister there recently, so I'm quite familiar with the area. Maybe I can be your tour guide."
"Okay, sure." Hoshino Seri nodded silently.
This time, we visited the park in Dongguan City.
Unlike the previous two times.
It had been sunny and clear before, but this time when we came, it started to drizzle.
Thick, inky black clouds pressed down on the sky, heavy as if about to fall, creating a sense of oppression and silence throughout the world.
"What a pity, it seems we can't enjoy ourselves properly today." Bai Yuze sighed as he looked at the fine, pattering raindrops.
"It's alright, Ms. Bai, come with me."
"Hmm?" Bai Yuzhe followed behind her with some confusion, wondering where she was taking him.
Hoshino Seri walked ahead, with Bai Yuze following behind. The two umbrellas, one black and one white, looked like two blooming flowers on the path.
The female teacher did not head towards the amusement rides in the park.
Instead, she led Bai Yuzhe to a small pavilion in a lush forest.
The pavilion contains four stone chairs and a round, exquisite stone table, providing a place for travelers to rest and enjoy tea.
A few small wind chimes hang from the top of the pavilion.
A gentle breeze blows, and the wind chimes emit a crisp, melodious sound, mingling with the sound of rain, giving people a sense of tranquility and peace.
"Kapomi".
The female teacher next to him took out her phone, snapped a few photos, and handed them to Bai Yuze to look at: "Although we can't go on the amusement park rides, the scenery around Silver Lake in the park is really beautiful!"
"It's very beautiful. Hoshino-sensei's photography skills are excellent."
Bai Yuze glanced at it and captured all the artistic conceptions in the photos; there were mountains and water, and it was very beautiful.
Well, actually he knew nothing about filming, but he just kept praising it.
No way.
The two, holding umbrellas, continued along the path beside the pavilion. The path was lined with pale purple lavender, and the sea of flowers emitted a sweet fragrance. The path ended at another small pavilion.
However, this small pavilion, though relatively small, offers a clear view of the beautiful lake scenery.
The lake was like a mirror, reflecting the image of the pavilion. Rain fell on the lake, creating ripples.
Bai Yuze gazed at the surrounding scenery and suddenly asked, "Hoshino-sensei, don't you think this place is perfect for confessing your feelings?"
Didn't you already confess your feelings before?
Hoshino Seri snapped out of her reverie and gazed at the pavilion and the lake.
He blinked for a long while, seemingly at a loss, then suddenly seemed to understand and revealed a faint smile: "Dim thunder, gloomy sky, but I hope the wind and rain will come, so that you can stay here."
Bai Yuze gazed at Hoshino Seri, a faint smile on his face: "A faint rumble of thunder, a gloomy sky—even without wind or rain..."
I will also stay here.
In this scene, the young and beautiful Hoshino Seri, her face slightly flushed, reached out and gently twirled the ends of her hair that were being blown by the wind and rain.
