Shen Hua quickly grabbed a tissue and stepped back to avoid the two of them.
"Thank you, I can do it myself."
Then she quickly wiped her mouth; she probably wasn't that aggressive, and her mouth wasn't that badly injured.
At this point, the other dishes were served one after another, and the others finally started eating.
Zi Mo picked up a piece of chicken and put it in her bowl. Xie Sichen was even more enthusiastic, picking up all kinds of dishes for her, and now her bowl was full.
Chen Hua: ...
Seeing that they continued their actions without any intention of stopping, she quickly stopped them, otherwise something bad would happen.
"Um, thank you both, but I can serve myself, you guys eat."
Then they put the bowl full of food aside and used another bowl to hold rice.
Although the various dishes are quite delicious, you can't skip rice, otherwise you'll miss out on a lot of culinary delights.
Xie Sichen stopped talking and obediently ate by himself. Zi Mo also picked up food for himself, but still tried to strike up a conversation from time to time.
"Your name is Zimo, right? Now that you're here at our school, we'll be classmates. Where did you go to school before?" Feng Qing asked, trying to start a conversation.
He sat right next to Zimo, so it was easy for them to talk.
"I'm sorry, I've always been in a detached state, frequently changing schools and spending most of my time away from home, so I can't really say anything about this."
"It's alright. It's quite impressive that you can stay out of the loop all the time. No wonder you're a special admission student at our school."
Zi Mo smiled, showing no sign of anything amiss, and said, "Yes! Xiao Hua is also a special admission student. It's quite a coincidence that we two are together."
Feng Qing could feel the faint chill in the air as he sat there, knowing that Xie Sichen was unhappy, which made him even more satisfied.
He said that Xie Sichen and Shen Hua had something going on but wouldn't admit it. If he didn't like her, why would he care so much?
Shen Hua simply listened to them talk while eating, without saying a word.
Nangong Rui and the Northwest: ...
They looked at each other in bewilderment, with Northwest still holding onto Nangong Rui's sleeve.
"Sister Jin, what brings you here for dinner today?"
Linna's voice came in, and then four women walked in.
Nangong Rui thought the voice sounded familiar, and thought he had misheard. He turned to look at the door and was startled.
It was them. He quickly lowered his head and moved towards Chen Hua, hiding behind her.
Chen Hua: ...
She also saw Jin Jiao. She didn't want to be seen either, but it wasn't good to hide behind like Nangong Rui, so she didn't move and tried to minimize her presence, hoping that Jin Jiao wouldn't recognize her.
At this moment, Jin Jiao and the others had already come over. After searching among them, they came to Northwest's side.
The three women beside Jin Jiao couldn't take their eyes off Zi Mo, Xie Sichen, and Feng Qing.
"Sister Jin, I was wondering why you came here. Turns out you were looking for benefits for us. Thank you, Sister Jin."
Jin Jiao was busy looking for someone, and Lin Na's voice wasn't loud, so she didn't hear her clearly.
"Hey kid from Northwest China, where's your friend Xiao Nan? Where did he hide? Tell him to come out. We just want to have a meal together."
Jin Jiao spoke in a very gentle voice, and since she was smiling, Northwest also felt that it was very unfair for Nangong Rui to hide like this.
So he pointed out Nangong Rui without hesitation.
Nangong Rui: ...
This guy is no good.
There was no point in hiding anymore, so Nangong Rui stood up defiantly and met Jin Jiao's gaze.
Unlike him, Jin Jiao was not fearless in the face of death. Instead, she smiled and walked to his side, taking his hand.
"You finally came out on your own. Come on, I'll take you to get something to eat."
"No need, I'm already eating." Nangong Rui removed her hand; this was improper.
"Alright, I'll go with you."
After saying that, she smiled and turned to the people who had sat down, saying, "Hello, I'm Xiao Nan's friend, and you're all Xiao Nan's classmates. This meal is on me today. Please order whatever you like, don't be shy."
Northwest kept giving Nangong Rui a thumbs up, saying that his brother Nan was really amazing, taking it down so quickly.
Shen Hua didn't say anything, and Xie Sichen was even less likely to speak. Zi Mo was still looking at Shen Hua, just like Xie Sichen, and was not affected by the others. Only Feng Qing could speak up to smooth things over.
"You're welcome. You can take Nangong Rui with you. We're very understanding."
They weren't familiar with Nangong Rui to begin with; their dinner today was just a coincidence. They didn't mean to stop him from leaving when his girlfriend showed up.
He said that just to give them a way out.
"Thank you very much then," Jin Jiao said quickly.
Jin Jiao wanted to take Nangong Rui away, and Nangong Rui couldn't stay there and let Shen Hua laugh at him.
He realized that hiding was already a bad thing to do, and he didn't know if the little country girl would laugh at him, so he decided to leave with Jin Jiao first.
Jin Jiao's friends were reluctant to part with her and tried to wink at her, but to no avail.
They actually wanted to greet Xie Sichen and the others, but none of them looked at them, and their aura was even stronger than their father's, which made them stop in their tracks.
However, the boy's looks were just like the one Jin Jiao had chosen last time, which made them unable to move on. In the end, they held back, took a few photos, and then left.
What made them think even more was that the photos they had just taken were already being asked to be processed.
The three looked at each other in surprise. It seemed to be an important person. Sister Jin was amazing. Sister Jin was awesome.
At this point, they dared not hope anymore. They were just puzzled because the two most handsome men were paying close attention to the woman in the middle, who didn't seem very pretty.
"I feel like that woman looks familiar, like she resembles someone, but I can't quite place her," Linna said uncertainly.
But she forgot about it as soon as she said it, and the three of them were left behind. Jin Jiao drove away with her boyfriend.
Their antics made the meal a bit awkward.
Shen Hua could only understand it now. She decided that she wouldn't have so many people eating together anymore, because more people meant more trouble.
Dealing with the hassle takes a lot of time, making the food less delicious.
"You guys eat first, I suddenly remembered I have something to do." Northwest stood up and strode away.
He initially came with Nangong Rui, but now that Nangong Rui has left, he feels he should leave soon too, as he can't stand the atmosphere here.
Perhaps this is the sixth sense that his sister often has.
The remaining four people ate. This time, Zimo didn't try to start a conversation but just ate quietly. As long as he didn't speak, the place was very quiet.
He's the kind of person who's really well-behaved. You just want to pat his head when you see him. His hair looks so soft.
Shen Hua had this feeling after just one glance. Zi Mo was always very talkative, and she liked the topics they talked about. She was a little unaccustomed to him suddenly not talking.
