Chapter 88 Live Broadcast
As Alfred thought, this happened because of his lack of consideration.
The bowl of tomato and egg noodles that Alfred cooked for Lin Han was not a sudden idea, and even if Lin Han went to the cafeteria to eat, Su Fu had already greeted him.
As the "internal tester" selected by Jiang Xuchen, Lin Han has always been taken care of by Alfred, and diet is one of them.
When there is no need for Lin Han to spend money, naturally no one will consider whether he has money or not.
Besides saying "thank you" verbally, the most common way for people on Blue Planet to express their gratitude is to treat others to a meal.
As a "local", it was difficult for Lin Han to avoid this subconscious thought when facing Shen Qiuqiu who helped his friend.
Treating someone to a meal naturally couldn't be done in the cafeteria, and Shen Qiuqiu unexpectedly brought Lin Han here.
Teacher Alfred, who can read minds, cannot detect such accidents.
Dinner for two turned into dinner for three.
The seats are not cramped.
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but when Lin Han and the others arrived, there was no room for two people, and now there was an empty seat for Alfred.
Of course, he didn't seem to be here to eat, nor did he order any food for himself. It seemed as if he just came here to sit for a while.
The person who was talking in his mind not long ago suddenly appeared next to him. Knowing that he came to help him out, Lin Han felt even more embarrassed.
Alfred didn't even say that directly in front of Shen Qiuqiu. Even though they were face to face, he still responded to him in his mind, probably to save his face.
Although it didn't seem difficult for Alfred to suddenly appear in this position, Lin Han still felt that he was a nuisance to him.
Without external pressure, Lin Han no longer had the confidence to ask for help from his guide like he did in the dungeon.
Lin Han is such a person.
He and Alfred were closer than anyone else he had met in the New World, but they were still in the getting-to-know-you stage.
If Alfred treated him normally, Lin Han would naturally respond to him with the same attitude, but if he softened his attitude and expressed some kindness to Lin Han, Lin Han would do the same.
So, considering what Alfred had said before, and thinking that the other party was an NPC played by a real person, Lin Han was silent for a moment, and also responded to him in his mind.
"If we meet outside, I'll treat you to a meal."
The moment he finished speaking, Lin Han felt inexplicably annoyed.
Why does it seem like the only way to thank someone is to treat them to a meal? Wasn't today's awkwardness all because of a meal?
But the words have been spoken, and it is impossible to take them back.
Fortunately, Alfred did not give him any time to feel awkward and quickly responded with "hmm", thus agreeing to a dinner invitation which he did not know when he would have the chance to attend.
Shen Qiuqiu, who originally couldn't stop talking, has been silent since Alfred came in.
It’s not that he has any problem with Teacher Alfred, it’s just that there are only three people in this space, and the other two just looked at each other and had no intention of speaking at all. He is just a small follower and didn’t dare to say a word first!
He secretly glanced at Lin Han who was eating a piece of taro and yam cake, wondering if this was a special treatment and why he didn't have it. He quietly raised his eyelids to look at Alfred opposite him.
As soon as he raised his eyes, he met the other person's dark eyes. Shen Qiuqiu subconsciously straightened his back. When he remembered that this was not a classroom, he raised his head again. Alfred opposite him had a gentle smile on his face, as if everything before was his illusion.
Shen Qiuqiu immediately smiled.
He knew that Lin Han had been lying to him just now!
Even Mr. Alfred, who is usually so strict, doesn't look so fierce next to him. Who would believe that it's okay?
After the initial nervousness passed, Shen Qiuqiu, who was very open-minded, immediately relaxed and was able to take the initiative to talk to Alfred.
"Teacher Alfred, I'm a big fan of your restaurant! Brother Han said he didn't know where to eat, so I brought him here immediately!"
Lin Han, who had just taken a sip of pumpkin soup and was about to praise it as delicious, looked up when he heard this.
Lin Han: “?”
What did he just hear?
This was the first time he looked at Alfred so seriously since he met him here.
The dim light and Lin Han's embarrassment prevented him from paying too much attention to Alfred. It was not until this moment that he realized that Alfred was not wearing the black and white suit he was familiar with. He was wearing a half-apron over a white shirt, which clearly showed that he was dressed as a chef.
The front and back were both black and white, and Lin Han didn't notice it at first.
Lin Han, who almost choked on a mouthful of pumpkin soup, tried hard to steady his breathing. After wiping the soup stains from the corners of his mouth, his eyes wandered back and forth on Alfred.
No wonder he disappeared for a while and then came to his side with food. He just said hello and didn't charge him for the meal. It seemed that he was ordering food here while Alfred was cooking in the kitchen.
Lin Han: “…”
His gaze finally fell directly on Alfred's face, and the confusion in it could not be concealed.
Is the academy short-staffed? Has he already been juggling so many roles?
She's also a teacher, teaching Shen Qiuqiu and the others, taking care of the kids, being Jiang Xuchen's transportation, and guiding them. I guess she's not just taking care of Lin Han, she's also a chef...
No wonder he ignored Lin Han when she called him in the copy. It might not be that the time to take action has not come yet, but that he is simply too busy.
But every time Lin Han saw him, he didn't look tired at all. How could she not praise him as a master of time management?
I don't know if he has any other identity behind the scenes...
You can't use a mule like this!
As he thought about it, Lin Han looked at Alfred with a hint of pity in his eyes.
Poor Alfred: "..."
He wanted to explain, but Lin Han might not believe whatever he said at this time, so he had to put on a smiling face and secretly took note of the talkative Shen Qiuqiu.
Shen Qiuqiu shivered, not knowing where the chill came from. Although Alfred ignored him just like Lin Han, he didn't feel embarrassed and went straight to Lin Han again.
"Brother Han, this is our first time eating out together, why don't we take a photo together as a souvenir!"
He didn't even give Lin Han a chance to refuse, and he came up to her. He took out a small Polaroid camera from somewhere and posed for Lin Han.
Lin Han didn't mind taking pictures, but... he and Shen Qiuqiu were clearly sitting together, so it would have been fine if they just moved closer, but he had to turn Lin Han 180 degrees and take the picture from the other side.
He couldn't hide his intention at all, which was to include Alfred in the photo.
Chen Qiuqiu tried to explain this by saying, "These leaves don't look good as a background, hehe."
Lin Han sighed in her heart that Chen Qiuqiu was so cautious in his words. He just said that the green plants were not beautiful in front of the restaurant owner. Although she knew it was a lame excuse, she still couldn't help but sweat for him.
Sure enough, behind them, Alfred said sinisterly, "Do you want me to change it for you later?"
Shen Qiuqiu: "No, no, no! It's actually very good..."
He laughed dryly, exerted force on his hand, and with a "click", the white light almost blinded Lin Han's eyes.
The corner of the restaurant, which focuses on creating an atmosphere, suddenly flashed with light. The layers of green leaves could not block the light from this side, almost attracting the attention of people around.
Lin Han: “…”
Alfred: "..."
Only Shen Qiuqiu was still grinning foolishly.
How many people can get a photo with Teacher Alfred? It's all thanks to Brother Han!
Lin Han looked at the photo card that Shen Qiuqiu handed to him. He only showed half of his head, giving the left side to Lin Han and the right back to Alfred.
His photography skills seemed to be good, but the dim environment made the background even darker, and Alfred's face didn't look like he was in a good mood.
Black is black, white is white, but fortunately Alfred maintained his smile at that moment.
Lin Han coughed dryly and didn't intend to comment on this Polaroid.
I always feel that Chen Qiuqiu is either a troublemaker in the academy or a problem student that makes the teachers worry.
Alfred obviously had no intention of expressing any opinion.
"Take your time, I have something else to take care of."
Lin Han inexplicably thought of the burnt pot in the kitchen and almost couldn't control his expression. Fortunately, he finally controlled himself.
As soon as Alfred left, Shen Qiuqiu couldn't hold back her chatterbox anymore, and only shut up reluctantly when his meal came.
Lin Han had time to eat his pumpkin soup, vegetable salad and snacks.
The meal went by without any major incidents.
After Lin Han and Shen Qiuqiu parted ways, he just walked into the dormitory and closed the door when he heard the prompt tone.
【Live broadcast permission is enabled】
[Authorized player ID: 0232466 special live link]
Hearing this prompt, Lin Han knew that Alfred did not turn it on when he asked him, and it was not until this moment when he returned to being alone that he actually helped him complete the operation.
Lin Han thought that Alfred might still be dancing with the fire in the kitchen. She wanted to laugh but also felt that he was very considerate.
[Lin Han, do you want to enter the next instance now?]
Alfred suddenly asked this in his consciousness.
Lin Han stood there. His first reaction was that the New World couldn't wait to show its effects in the internal test, so it was forcing him to quickly advance the game, but he soon realized that Alfred was asking him a question.
This means he can refuse.
Although Alfred showed his willingness to urge him to enter the next copy, Lin Han could continue to sleep in the dormitory.
Lin Han had already passed the entrance assessment for freshmen, and he hadn't even taken a single class in the academy. According to the basic admission plan, he should get his class schedule and start studying.
But...the audience gathered in Song Ziyi's live broadcast room did not come here to watch him teach.
They stayed there and had a heated discussion to see what the so-called internal test was actually about.
The New World's announcement was unreasonable and seemed to completely disregard the wishes of other players. This caused players to feel angry and annoyed, but they were reluctant to really break up.
And this opportunity is the best chance for Lin Han to catch their attention.
As Alfred said, Lin Han’s best choice at this moment was to complete another copy in front of them.
Lin Han: "Come in."
The moment the words fell, Lin Han’s eyes went dark.
He didn't close his eyes, but there was pure darkness all around him, so he couldn't see anything.
But he heard Alfred speaking in his ear, his voice so reliable and soft.
Don't worry, I'll be there for you.
Lin Han closed his eyes, waiting for the unknown force to carry him into a new copy, and the words that were so familiar that they couldn't be more familiar also came to his mind.
【Welcome to the new world, player Lin Han. 】
