Chapter 169 - Stalker in the house

Yuerui obediently went with him to the restaurant.

After they went Bo Hai ordered two coffees for them.

"So tell me how are you doing with your new life?"

"It's good."

"Did you make any boyfriend yet?"

'Here we go. So this is your intention. You must be planning to set me up with any of your friends.' Yuerui thought.

"No." She shortly replied.

"Hey, you don't have to hide from me. You can tell me."

"No, I am serious. In fact, I am not considering to get involved in any relationship now." Yuerui indirectly rejected him.

"Not now, but in the future… who knows?" Bo Hai murmured and gave a strange smile.

"Sorry?" Yuerui asked.

"Oh…. I am saying it's good. Just concentrate on your studies. Relationsh.i.p.s? They are like the wind. They will come when they have to come." Bo hai said.

"I think I should leave now, senior. My friends are waiting for me." Yuerui said. She didn't want to stay any longer.

"Oh, Sure. Let me accompany you to the dorm." Bo Hai said.

"No, I can manage." Yuerui grabbed her stuff hurriedly and prepared to leave the restaurant.

But Bo Hai still chased after her.

"No, I am ok…." But he stopped his words when he saw that Shu Ren had come to the same restaurant with her friends.

Shu Ren saw both Yuerui and Bo Hai together and approached them.

"What are you doing here?" Shu ren asked.

"Umm…"

Before Bo Hai could say anything Yuerui said, "I came to get these notes from senior Bo Hai."

Shu Ren glanced at the notes that Yuerui was holding and looked at them.

"O…" she shortly replied.

Yuerui could see that Shu Ren was not happy with this situation.

"Shu Ren, Your boyfriend is so generous. He even gave me a treat today. You are really lucky. Senior is such a nice guy." Yuerui tried to cheer Shu Ren.

"Yes. He is indeed a great person." Shu Ren gave out a sweet smile.

"So, you guys carry on. I am leaving. Bye." Yuerui hurriedly bid them goodbye and left the place.

---------------

After that day, Yuerui started to get flowers sent to her home every day but it had no name on them. She would get various types of flowers. Sometimes rose, sometimes lily, sometimes orchid, or sometimes tulips. But every time in the bouquet, there will be one beautiful red Hibiscus along with them.

One day, two days, three days… soon it started to come every day. This made Yuerui very scared. At first, she tried to say this to her friends. But they were not that of help. They thought it might be someone who wants to pursue her. It's quite normal for pretty girls in the freshman years. So they didn't pay that attention to that.

Since her friends were not that of a help Yuerui stopped to consult with them. She just couldn't wait for the day she will leave the house.

Later Yuerui started to notice that Bo Hai would wait for her every day after class. Yuerui had to greet him politely out of respect but when he sees Shu Ren, he would hurriedly leave the place. As if he is avoiding Shu Ren.

She also noticed that Bo Hai would always try to match them together. Like one day he and Yuerui wore the same color. So he mentioned that with such an excited face as if he is the happiest person in the world. Yuerui started to find this weird and began to avoid him.

She would leave the class from the back door so that Bo Hai will not notice him.

This thing continued for a few days and soon Bo Hai was not seen outside her class.

One day Yuerui heard from her friends that Bo Hai had broken up with Shu Ren. This stretched the floor out of Yuerui's feet. She didn't know how to react. She didn't know if she is responsible for that. The whole class knows about Shu Ren and Bo Hai. They knew each other since high school. They are said to be called childhood sweethearts. That's why she was feeling even more miserable.

Yuerui actually didn't tell about Bo Hai stalking her to her friends. But now she thought she should tell them.

"What? Bo Hai constantly approached you? How come we didn't see that?" Yang Zi asked.

"How will you see? You guys always run to the cafeteria after class leaving me behind. That is the moment he came and talked with me." Yuerui clarified.

"Do you have any feelings for him?" Ning Tan asked Yuerui.

"No! I don't like him. I don't know why he is stalking me." Yuerui was on the verge of crying.

"Yuerui, do you think he is the person who was sending you the flowers before?" Yang Zi asked.

"I don't know. Those flowers never had any names on them."

"Is the flower still coming to you?" Yang Zi asked.

Yuerui slowly nodded her head to say that it is still coming.

"That's it! I don't know anything else. Mai Yuerui, you should stay away from him. And in university, you have to stick with us all the time. Okay? We will protect you." Ning Tan became worried about her friend.

Even though Ning Tan and Yuerui never talked properly with each other in their school life, but both of them saw each other how they grew up. Ning Tan knows exactly how Yuerui is. So she is worried that God forbid if anything bad happens, Yuerui will not be able to protect herself.

"Besides, you are moving to the dorms tomorrow, right?" Yang Zi said.

"Yes… I am so excited. I don't know how this miracle happened that I got to share the same room with you. We three are gonna have a blast together." Yuerui said with excitement. She didn't want her friends to worry about her. So she tried to lighten the atmosphere.

"I think you should tell your parents about this, Yuerui. And also about the dorm." Ning Tan suggested.

"Have you gone mad? Don't you know how my parents are? If they know about this they are gonna call me back to stay with them. Not only that they can even transfer me to another place to study. I don't wanna leave this place. Besides, that guy didn't say anything directly to me. It's just that me." Yuerui tried to reason with them. She doesn't want to go back to her parents at all.

---------

The next day after class Bo Hai was again standing outside the class. This time he was standing in between the two doors. After class, Yuerui's friends came out from the front door and started a conversation with him. While they were keeping him busy Yuerui sneaked out from the back door. But she was immediately caught by him.

"Hey, Yuerui where are you going?" Bo Hai shouted.

Ning Tan and Yang Zi tried to distract him but failed.

Yuerui became so scared that she couldn't say anything to him. She looked at him with scared eyes and ran away from that place.

----------

After class, the three friends went to have lunch outside.

"Thanks a lot, guys. I don't know how I would be able to escape if it weren't for you guys."

"Don't be a scaredy-cat, Yuerui. You didn't do any wrong. Next time face it with courage, not run away from him. Okay?" Yang Zi taught the scaredy little cat, Mai Yuerui.

"Okay." Yuerui nodded in reply as she gulped a full glass of cola.

After that, the three of them go shopping to buy some daily necessities for their new dorm-mate.

After they were done with shopping it was already dark and their hands were full of shopping bags. But they still needed to go to Yuerui's apartment to get her clothes and other stuff. Yuerui knew that her friends were already exhausted and she didn't want them to bother anymore. So she told them to go back to the dorm with the stuff they already have and she will return after she gets her stuff from her apartment.

Ning Tan did not want to leave her alone and insisted to go with her. But after the continuous nagging of Yuerui, she had to give in to her, and thus Ning Tan and Yang Zi went back to the dorm leaving Yuerui behind.

-------------

After reaching the apartment Yuerui picked up her bag of clothes and was about to leave. When she opened the door she remembered to check the faucet of the kitchen and bathroom so see if anyone is turned on.

But when she returned at the door after checking them her heart was not in its place.

She saw Bo Hai at her door. He had a red Hibiscus in his hand. It was as fresh as a newly bloomed flower. As if he just plucked it from the tree.

"Se…. senior…" she slowly murmured. She tried to act normal.

"Yes. It's me. Who else would it be."

"Wh… What are you doing here?"

"What do you mean? Of course, I came to see you." He said as if it's very obvious of him to come here.

"It's very late now. You should leave." Yuerui came forward to close the door but when she tried to shut the door Bo Hai blocked it with his hand.
