Chapter 90: I have something to tell her

"What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

"Just make anything you want." After eating the cola chicken wings made by Meng Chuyuan last time, Lu Qianling knew that her cooking skills must be good, so she could eat whatever Meng Chuyuan made with confidence.

"Then I'll see what else is in the kitchen and make something for you." She happened to be a little hungry, so she cooked something for herself.

Meng Chuyuan got up and went to the kitchen. Seeing some noodles in the cupboard, she took them out. Then she took some lettuce, a scallion and two eggs from the refrigerator.

She boiled a pot of water and prepared the ingredients for the soup base. Then she fried two eggs in a frying pan next to her, set them aside, and washed the lettuce.

Lu Qianling had already appeared in the kitchen since Meng Chuyuan started frying eggs.

While Meng Chuyuan was cutting onions, she turned to look at Lu Qianling and asked softly, "Do you eat onions?"

“I don’t eat scallions.”

"Okay, I'll leave the green part for you." After Meng Chuyuan cut the green onions, he specially separated the white part.

When the water was almost boiled, Meng Chuyuan put some noodles in to cook until soft. Finally, he put the lettuce into the pot and cooked it. He also poured in the seasoning and mixed it evenly, then scooped out the noodles and put them into a bowl.

Meng Chuyuan placed the fried egg on the noodles, sprinkled some chopped green onions on it, and handed it to Lu Qianling: "Be careful, it's hot."

Lu Qianling took the bowl of hot clear soup noodles with both hands. She couldn't help but lower her head to drink a sip of the soup and said from the bottom of her heart, "It's really good."

The two of them came to the dining table with a bowl of noodles and sat facing each other.

Lu Qianling was probably really hungry. The noodles were indeed a little hot right out of the pot, but that couldn't hide her anxious look.

"Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."

Lu Qianling chewed a mouthful of noodles and said incoherently, "Meng Xiaomei, the noodles you cooked are so delicious."

Hearing this familiar name, Meng Chuyuan subconsciously looked at Lu Qianling and asked curiously, "How do you know the name Meng Xiaomei?"

"Did you forget?" Lu Qianling looked up at her and said, "Buy me a steam eye mask. The buyer's nickname is on the logistics list."

Meng Chuyuan: “…”

That's because when her grandmother was alive, she always called her "Little Sister". After her grandmother passed away, Meng Chuyuan never heard the name "Little Sister" again, so she changed all her nicknames to Meng Xiaomei, as if her grandmother had never left her.

She has used this nickname for a long time because she has already let it go. Now when she opens software on various platforms and sees this nickname, she no longer feels anything.

But she didn't expect that when these three words came out of Lu Qianling's mouth, she suddenly remembered her grandmother.

Lu Qianling had eaten nearly half a bowl of noodles. When she looked up again, she saw Meng Chuyuan hadn't taken a single bite. She asked curiously, "Why aren't you eating?"

"You shouldn't call me Meng Xiaomei." Meng Chuyuan looked at her calmly and said calmly, "I am your sister-in-law after all. If you don't want to call me sister-in-law, then call me sister."

"Why can't I call her? Little Sister Meng is so kind."

“…” Meng Chuyuan didn’t correct her name.

After all, the story here is too complicated, and Lu Qianling is unaware of it, so what has she done wrong?

Meng Chuyuan picked up his chopsticks and ate noodles with her: "What time do you go to school tomorrow?"

"I have to be at school at 7:30, so I have to leave at 6:30, but it's okay to arrive a little later for morning reading."

Sometimes it is inevitable to encounter traffic jams or other situations, and there is nothing you can do if you are late.

Meng Chuyuan nodded and asked, "Are there many day students in your class?"

When asked this, Lu Qianling suddenly smiled. She looked at Meng Chuyuan and even said with some pride: "It's just me, do you believe it?"

The school teachers and her family members often advised her to consider living on campus, but she just didn't want to.

Moreover, the school’s beds are relatively tight, and it is impossible to give her special treatment just because she has special requirements and free up an empty dormitory for her to live in.

"I believe it." Meng Chuyuan stopped there and didn't ask any more questions: "Eat quickly, then take a shower and go to bed."

——

The next day, Meng Chuyuan got up at around five o'clock.

After washing up, she went downstairs and went straight to the kitchen, where she made a few sandwiches, fried dumplings and boiled eggs.

"It smells so good." By the time Lu Qianling came down from upstairs with her schoolbag, Meng Chuyuan had already heated up the milk.

Lu Qianling smelled the fragrance and came to the restaurant. Looking at the table full of sumptuous breakfast, she licked her lips unconsciously.

Seeing Meng Chuyuan pouring milk, Lu Qianling asked curiously, "Did you make this breakfast?"

"Well, don't you have to go to school?" Meng Chuyuan poured a cup of hot milk and handed it to Lu Qianling, saying, "Eat quickly. I'll take you to school after you finish."

Lu Qianling pulled out a chair and sat down. After listening to Meng Chuyuan's words, she showed a surprised expression: "You want to send me to school?"

She was suddenly a little confused.

Why is Meng Chuyuan suddenly so nice to her?

Make breakfast for her and take her to school?

Meng Chuyuan peeled an egg for her and stuffed it directly into her mouth: "Eat it quickly, or you will be late."

After breakfast, Meng Chuyuan drove her to school and then took a walk around the nearby school district housing.

Last night she was thinking that Lu Qianling ran home after school and wasted too much time going back and forth. Since she didn't want to live on campus, she could rent a house for her near the school, which would be more convenient.

Meng Chuyuan spent the whole morning outside looking at houses. She put the ones she thought had good environments on the shortlist and planned to take Lu Qianling to see them when she had no classes.

When Meng Chuyuan returned to Lu's residence, she happened to see Lu's mother talking on the phone, but she saw that Lu's mother seemed to be in a bad mood.

Meng Chuyuan didn't mean to eavesdrop, because Mother Lu knew she had come in and didn't deliberately try to avoid her. She continued talking on the phone: "I'm not going. I don't know how to do anything."

Seeing that Lu's mother was a little excited, Meng Chuyuan didn't dare to disturb her. She changed her shoes and was about to go upstairs quietly when Lu's mother suddenly waved her hand and motioned her to come over.

Meng Chuyuan looked puzzled and walked over slowly.

After Meng Chuyuan came over, Mother Lu said into the phone, "Your wife is back. Talk to her if you have anything to say."

The next second, Lu's mother handed the phone to Meng Chuyuan.

Meng Chuyuan was stunned for a moment. She took the phone and said calmly, "Lu Qingye?"

"It's me." His voice was low and steady, with a hint of cold tenderness.

Mother Lu sat next to them, saying nothing and looking a little unhappy.

Meng Chuyuan's eyes were filled with doubt. She glanced at Mother Lu, then slowly sat down and asked softly, "Is there something wrong?"

She had just returned and didn't know what Lu Qingye had said to his mother, but judging from Lu's mother's reaction, she must have encountered something that made her unhappy.

After Meng Chuyuan sat down, she turned on the speakerphone of her cell phone and listened with Lu's mother.
