"Yun, what do you like to eat? I'll go get the food."

Yun Ningyan was very impatient. How could this person not read other people's expressions?

Even though I don't want to talk to him at all, he's still so eager to get close to me!

Yun Ningyan smiled faintly, "Alright then! I'll let you spend the money today!"

"I want braised pork ribs, two servings, that's my favorite!"

"Braised pork, sweet and sour fish, and a chicken soup as well."

"Oh right, there should be crispy pork today, right? I'd also like a crispy pork stew, that would be delicious too."

"No need for the green vegetables."

"Oh, right, I want to eat two bowls of rice and a big white steamed bun."

Yun Ningyan counted the dishes one by one on her fingers.

At first, Han Lei was smiling, but by the end of her speech, her palms were sweating.

There's so much, can we finish it all?

Has he never eaten before? Ordering so much all at once, are you trying to take advantage of him?

But looking at Yun Ningyan's clothes and appearance, she doesn't seem like someone who can't afford these things!

Han Lei felt a little awkward; he was worried that he might have to pay for all these things today just to save face.

After that, I won't have any living expenses for the next month.

What will I eat from now on?

Even eating dirt won't fill your stomach!

Yun Ningyan pretended not to see his predicament.

She felt contempt in her heart, but smiled brightly on her face.

"What's wrong? Come on! I'm starving. If we're any slower, all the food will be gone."

Han Lei's forehead was covered in sweat; it was only February, and some people were still wearing light jackets.

Why is he sweating so much?

Yun Ningyan smiled enigmatically: "Could it be that you're planning to ask me to treat you to a meal?"

Han Lei felt a little flustered looking at her ambiguous smile.

He resisted the urge to agree and shook his head.

"How could that be? You're a girl, I should be treating you."

Yun Ningyan thought this statement made sense, and she nodded in agreement.

"You're right, let's go!"

Han Lei really wanted to go with her, but his wallet wouldn't allow it.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, about to say that he had something to do.

Then a male voice rang out: "What are you doing standing here? Go inside!"

Huo Junshan had just come out of the classroom when the teacher called him to say something.

As soon as I arrived, I saw Yun Ningyan standing here.

Yun Ningyan smiled and said, "My classmates said they're going to treat me to dinner!"

"I was just saying I wanted to eat that braised pork belly, spare ribs, chicken soup, and fish?"

Huo Junshan nodded meaningfully: "That's perfect, shall we go together?"

Yun Ningyan nodded, and then asked Han Lei for his opinion: "Han Lei? Why don't you invite my friends too?"

Han Lei was now sweating even more.

But now that things have come to this, he can't back down.

Seeing that Yun Ningyan and Huo Junshan had already walked towards the cafeteria.

He gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and followed.

At worst, I can just bear with it for a month.

We can't let people starve to death!

For the sake of his future, he doesn't mind suffering a little.

But when it came time to order, Han Lei looked at the prices of the meat dishes.

He couldn't help but advise, "Yun, there's so much food, we can't finish it all. Why don't we order less?"

Yun Ningyan smiled and said, "It's okay, we can finish it. You just need to pay."

Her words left Han Lei speechless.

As Huo Junshan asked for more and more, his heart pounded.

No, no.

He took so much; they definitely couldn't finish it all. It's enough for five or six people.

There are only three of them, how could they possibly finish the food?

Huo Junshan finally finished ordering and smiled at Han Lei, saying, "Han Lei, I'm done ordering. Now it's time to pay!"

Han Lei swallowed.

It seems he's a little short of money in his wallet.

That's way too much!

One meal bankrupted him.

Keep in mind, he only had twenty yuan in his wallet.

This was money his mother had borrowed for him.

Seeing that he remained unmoved, Huo Junshan sneered, "You can't even afford to eat, and you're still thinking about taking shortcuts!"

"Don't you even know if you're worthy! Get out of the way!"

Huo Junshan shoved Han Lei aside, paid the bill himself, and left with Yun Ningyan carrying the food.

Han Lei felt that his self-esteem had been greatly insulted.

His usual arrogance was utterly crushed and ground into the ground at this moment.

He felt as if he were standing naked next to Huo Junshan.

He watched as Yun Ningyan and Huo Junshan carried the food to a certain place.

He glanced over and saw that two men and a woman were already sitting there. After they sat down, they chatted and laughed.

Xiao Zhenhua, Huo Jianshe, and Liang Weiwei were already waiting there.

They didn't have classes that afternoon, so they wanted to come in and see what Beijing University was like.

Just in time for lunch, Huo Junshan had Xiao Zhenhua bring them here to wait for him.

They had overheard a few words from the side.

I randomly picked a table and sat down.

Yun Ningyan picked up a piece of pork rib with her chopsticks, ate it, and then muttered, "It's not tasty at all!"

Huo Junshan smiled and said, "It's not as good as my mother's cooking. When I'm home, I'll cook for her."

Huo Junshan shoveled down a couple of mouthfuls of rice; he ate very quickly.

I feel like I get hungry faster at school than at home these past two days.

They stopped paying attention to Han Lei's thoughts.

Although Huo Junshan heard everything clearly, they still ate their meal while chatting and laughing.

Han Lei ordered a bowl of vegetarian noodles and ate it alone in a corner.
