Chapter 24: How Can I Endure Such a Test?
Bai Yu did find the hairdryer after a while of searching, but it was in her suitcase.
That means it belongs to Sister Bai.
However, Sister Bai said she would use magic, so she won’t need it for now. I considered it a way of leaving it to me. Seeing Sister Bai like that, I ultimately didn’t voice my refusal.
I hadn’t really used a hairdryer before; the times I experienced it were just during my haircuts.
Boys usually let their hair dry naturally after washing it. Who would use a hairdryer unless they were in a hurry? At least, I never used one, and there wasn’t one in my home.
However, Sister Bai explained many precautions to me, like not blowing the hair too dry to avoid damaging its quality.
Damaging hair quality… It seems I really need to pay attention to this. I don’t want to end up with disheveled hair that feels bad, dry, and split ends later on.
“It really is getting late, Xiao Han. You should have been asleep by now, right? You must be yawning a lot now,” Sister Bai said with a smile, also tidying up the quilt on the bed.
“Yeah, I’m really sleepy now~ Ugh~”
I yawned quickly to indicate my current state, also an implicit suggestion to myself that if I fall asleep quickly, having Sister Bai lying beside me wouldn’t really matter.
“Then let’s sleep.”
Bai Yu straightforwardly replied. However, she didn’t seem very tired; after all, she had been at the Witch Academy for a long time, and the witch transformation had a significant effect on her. Although it wasn’t enough to make her extraordinary, her life level had indeed improved, so she needed very little sleep.
Thus, the lively nightlife at the Witch Academy at night naturally has its basis.
If one can’t sleep, they would naturally look for something stimulating.
After lying in bed, I felt quite sleepy, which was in line with my willingness. I was worried that Sister Bai’s presence beside me would have a big impact on me, but now I didn’t have the energy to worry about that at all.
“Xiao Han, how does the first day at the Witch Academy feel?” Sister Bai’s voice gently came, and soon, the bedroom’s ceiling light dimmed, while the surrounding light strips lit up, adding a touch of comfort to the pitch-black bedroom.
However, I had no mood to appreciate it.
“It feels… pretty… good…” I replied intermittently, and Bai Yu’s voice also became vague in my ears.
“Then what do you think about those seniors? I saw you getting some attention from quite a few of them on the street over there.”
“Getting attention? Really? That fried tofu is indeed nice…”
“Alright… I see you’re about to fall asleep. Good night~” Bai Yu turned to look at the figure beside her; she could tell I was really sleepy now. With that, she suppressed her original intention to chat.
“Good night~”
With just the last bit of consciousness, I caught the goodnight greeting, replied to it, and completely succumbed to drowsiness, even my breathing became much steadier.
“The quality of sleep is really good…”
Bai Yu said with a hint of envy, but there was no response from me, only her talking to herself.
“Xiao Han, those seniors in the academy are all quite eager, especially towards new students; they are quite welcoming…”
“But they prefer younger junior sisters, so be sure to protect yourself…”
Saying this, Bai Yu’s hand subconsciously placed around my waist, even though I was facing away from her; she didn’t mind at all.
“Although I’m also a senior, essentially I’m not really different from them…”
“This is… how can I endure such a test?”
Bai Yu’s hand wrapped around my waist, her fingers gently pressed on my side, seemingly enjoying the soft touch.
Even though there was still a barrier of the sleep robe.
Not reaching inside the sleep robe seemed to be her last restraint.
Time passed bit by bit.
The bedroom was very quiet, as if both of us were asleep.
But soon a rustling sound made Bai Yu sit up suddenly.
At that moment, she was extraordinarily clear-headed, almost wanting to slap herself to maintain her rationality.
She instinctively picked up her phone to check the time; it hadn’t been long, and it was still early morning, but she hadn’t fallen asleep at all.
Being awake at this moment only meant torment.
She had to leave.
She really had to leave, or else she was afraid she would not be able to resist taking action against the girl on the bed, and if it really reached that point, how would she face her?
Bai Yu quietly tidied the blanket and opened the door; she was going back to her own dormitory. She decided to return now and get some fresh air outside to wake herself up.
Although it felt a bit wrong to leave without a word, she couldn’t just wake the girl up to tell her she was leaving, could she? That would only make her seem more neurotic, right?
At this point, she began to envy those carefree preparatory witches. If she could abandon her useless persistence and principles, Xiao Han should have already been in her grasp by now.
But unfortunately, she wasn’t that kind of witch. Initially, she was a very traditional girl and straight, until she was taken into the Witch Academy.
That’s right, Bai Yu was also brought in against her will, so she hated the Witch Academy. Yet, witch transformation made her feel a sense of belonging to the witch race, and this contradiction always left her unsure of how to choose.
However, no matter what, Bai Yu could not withstand the subtle changes and ongoing witch transformation, plus this kind of experience.
Countless regrets and unwillingness could only turn into sighs.
That night, one could only wonder how many new students would fall into the hands of those seniors?
Witches really are a deeply sinful race.
But after leaving here, Bai Yu still felt a bit uneasy. In the end, she could only take out her phone and edit a list of various precautions, sending them one by one to Xiao Han’s phone.
Originally, it was her who said they would share a bed, and now it was her who was escaping. She really didn’t know how to explain this to Xiao Han later.
Although she had already edited many apologetic messages at the beginning of her phone, it wasn’t like she wouldn’t meet Xiao Han again after this.
If the other party reacts negatively to this matter, how would she feel embarrassed?
Even if she was confident that Xiao Han wouldn’t make things awkward for her, she still needed to express her attitude.
There were many things to take note of, and Bai Yu was moving slowly. All the way back to her dormitory, she didn’t finish her thoughts, always feeling that there were many things left unsaid, but she just couldn’t remember them.
Forget it; these basic things should be enough for now. I’m only making suggestions, not planning Xiao Han’s entire life.
Just as she stopped editing the messages and prepared to push open her room door, her phone suddenly rang.
It was the sound of receiving a message.
Yang Yuelan: Thank you, Sister Bai, you should sleep early too.
