After leaving the seeds, Jin Buhuan politely got up and left. Xu Milu and Li Ning had gotten up early and hadn't even had breakfast, so they each ordered a piece of cake, planning to eat it before going back.
"Hey! Little Martial Aunt, if you go to Xingning Village today, please take me with you. Yesterday you made chicken egg chrysanthemum tofu, and Grandmaster will definitely push me to practice my knife skills. My master is in seclusion for the competition this time, and he almost wants to throw me to Grandmaster as his apprentice. Everything else is fine, but I really can't handle the extra training. Look, look!"
Li Ning held up his trembling hand to show her:
"My hands are shaking like chicken feet, they could be boiled and used in hot pot—I'm now the last in my class but somehow managed to get into the top class by accident, and Cui Qingli always makes fun of me. If I hadn't sacrificed myself, would she be so carefree and happy?"
Xu Milu took the blueberry mousse and Black Forest cake from the waiter, scooped out a piece with a spoon, took a bite, and frowned slightly:
"It's too sweet. The sugar they used is wrong, and the cream is also vegetable cream. It must have been kept in the refrigerator after it was made and was only taken out temporarily. There are still ice crystals in the filling."
"The taste is just so-so."
Li Ning also took a bite: "Little Martial Aunt, why haven't I seen you researching vegetarian recipes lately? Have you changed your focus?"
Xu Milu shook her head: "I think Master is right. We still need to solidify our basic skills. Besides, my senior brother has been busy participating in variety shows these past two days and hasn't had time to teach me. It just so happens that I have to start working in the fields again during this time."
"I heard that Ningcheng is currently running a 'grape-for-the-people' project, right? The government buys ping-pong grape seedlings and then provides them to impoverished households in mountainous areas to plant. When it's harvest time, the government is responsible for contacting distributors, handling transportation and sales. I think it's pretty good. I'm planning to film a video on this topic soon, so I thought I'd come and visit your greenhouse for a couple of days!"
Li Ning's little scheme was written all over his face; he was clearly trying to avoid Cui Shengguo's training. Xu Milu didn't bother to call him out on it.
"Anyway, Master agrees, so you can go and film whatever you want. You can drive back later."
"Come on, when I drive your black hearse, I always feel like the way people around me are looking at me is weird."
Li Ning took another bite of cake, and although he found it unpalatable, he finished it after training, since Cui Shengguo couldn't stand wasting food.
...
...
"Xu Milu?! You're Xu Milu, aren't you?!"
A slightly exaggerated voice rang out. Xu Milu frowned and looked over, only to find a young man in a gray suit who was not particularly handsome. He was dressed quite respectably, but the deliberate smile on his face and the frivolous look in his eyes made her feel uncomfortable.
"Who are you?"
Xu Milu tried hard to recall, but couldn't remember ever having such a "talent" in her WeChat Moments.
“I’m Zheng Xin, your high school classmate! Don’t you remember me? I used to sit behind you and we’d always joke around together.”
Zheng Xin looked Xu Milu up and down:
"Old classmate, you're doing pretty well these days. Zhou Qing said you drive luxury cars worth millions? Why didn't I see you drive here to the class reunion today?"
Xu Milu squinted and thought for a while, then suddenly realized:
"Oh—you're the one who couldn't beat me on the exam, then talked badly about me behind my back, and even led a few boys to spill red ink on my chair. In the end, I told the teacher and your parents, and you got a demerit, right? Ah, that's definitely an old classmate."
"puff--"
Li Ning almost spat out his coffee all over Zheng Xin.
"Cough cough cough, little junior sister, you're so... amazing."
You're so ruthless in exposing people's shortcomings, you truly live up to your reputation!
Zheng Xin was a little embarrassed, and his face looked extremely ugly, but he still remembered to compose his expression:
"That was all just me being silly and joking around with you back then! Why did you take it so seriously and still remember it now? You're here for a class reunion, right? It starts at 10:30, it's inside. I came with Zhou Qing and Chen Jiajia. Why don't we go sit down for a while and catch up?"
Xu Milu followed his gaze and indeed saw Zhou Qing, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, and another woman who looked somewhat familiar.
"No need for catching up. I don't have any connection with you guys to reminisce about, unless you apologize to me in front of everyone for your childish and boring behavior. I might be interested then."
Xu Milu smiled slightly:
"I'm the kind of person who always seeks revenge and doesn't hold grudges overnight. Do you remember back in high school when you climbed over the wall to attend online classes, and when you came back, someone pulled down your ladder, leaving you frozen on the wall for most of the night?"
Zheng Xin's eyes immediately changed: "You did this?"
"Yeah, you said you were joking, so it's normal for me to joke with you. Someone also reported that you keep throwing firecrackers in front of the dean's door. Who do you think did that? Oh, I remember now, you thought you were punished for this and had to write a self-criticism for a week, right? It was just a joke, don't be so angry."
Xu Milu remained calm.
Li Ning finally broke down completely, covering his face and burying his face in the table, gasping for breath:
"Pfft... That's too cruel, too cruel... Junior Aunt, your high school life is quite colorful!"
But why does this sound so good?
I originally thought his aunt was a pushover when she was young, but now I see that she's actually a black-hearted sesame dumpling, full of bad intentions!
It's so satisfying to deal the highest damage with the calmest expression!
"So it was you! I'm so pissed off—"
Zheng Xin's temper flared up immediately:
"Are you sick?! Don't you understand that if a guy bullies you, it means he likes you? You deserve all the trouble your family went through. With your personality, no one will ever dare to marry you!"
