"Holy crap! Dude, you're ruthless too!"
A day of gaming had basically exhausted all of Zhenpo's energy.
Although he had been given nutrient solution in the game pod beforehand, the feeling of emptiness in his stomach when he opened his eyes still made him decide to come to the cafeteria to eat in the middle of the night.
That's the good thing about the Central Military Academy—it's open all day.
Zhen Hu, who had come out more than an hour earlier than him, first washed his hair and took a shower. He hadn't originally planned to go out for a late-night snack, but his younger brother dragged him over.
While having a late-night snack, they naturally asked Zhen Hu how he managed to pass the test. In the end, Zhen Hu paid with his own life.
Is it ruthless?
Zhen Hu raised his eyelids and glanced at Zhen Po. Seeing that the other was looking at him as if he had seen a ghost, Zhen Hu asked him again, "What did you wish for? Why didn't it come true?"
Upon hearing this question, Zhen Po immediately acted like a defeated little rooster, stuffing the meat from the plate into his mouth and grumbling for a long time without having the nerve to explain to his twin brother.
Surely you can't say that his greatest ambition was to eliminate all demons in the world, right?
It's just that he was blinded by beauty and at the last moment he didn't say it. He only asked the other party if he could only do good deeds and not harm people.
To be honest, the boss of this dungeon was quite gentle. He only glanced at him coldly, then told him to get lost through the layers of gauze and kicked him out, without taking his life.
After thinking it over, he finally explained the matter to Zhen Hu in a low voice. As a result, Zhen Hu, who was drinking fruit milk, almost sprayed a mouthful of fruit milk directly onto his younger brother's face.
"Pfft cough cough cough cough! You you you..."
Zhen Hu was so angry that he couldn't say anything for a long time. Then, remembering that the other party had only bought a cola chicken wing boxed lunch, he asked again, "Then tell me, what's the use of buying this boxed lunch? Have you subdued any demons? If I were you, after eating this, I would be tougher and directly start a war with the fox spirit."
"But she's so pretty!"
Zhen Hu: "..."
Compared to the two who got up in the middle of the night to have a late-night snack, it's rare to see someone like Mingmei accompanying Lu Xiaoyao to the psychological counseling room late at night.
What left her speechless was that she wondered if it was really alright for her uncle, Ruan Ruan, to be staying here in the middle of the night.
Is this considered working overtime?
Didn't her uncle say that she was coming here to relax for a while, like taking a vacation?
Are holidays now equivalent to overtime?
Are working people this demanding?!
Mingmei sat in the waiting area, gathering her thoughts, and used her personal computer to catch up on her high school knowledge, especially physics!
Why is she in such a miserable state?
As she was thinking, Mingmei pointed at the empty coffee table with her finger, then looked towards the door of the consultation room. She lowered her eyes and wondered if she should go to the cafeteria to buy something and continue waiting.
Just waiting like this is getting a bit boring, and I'm also getting a bit hungry.
Just as Mingmei was about to get up, the door to the consultation room opened, and Ruan Xun adjusted his slender silver-white glasses, smiling gently as he saw Lu Xiaoyao out.
When Mingmei saw Lu Xiaoyao standing next to her uncle, staring at him with a dreamy look, she was instantly speechless.
She was told to come for psychological counseling, but she looks like she's been tricked by a top male escort at a nightclub.
"Oh dear, Meimei, have you been waiting long? Are you hungry? I had someone bring some food over; let's eat before we go back~"
Ruan Xun naturally noticed that Mingmei had accompanied Lu Xiaoyao today, but he hadn't mentioned it until Lu Xiaoyao's visit ended.
"Huh? You two know each other?"
It was only then that Lu Xiaoyao realized that Mingmei and the doctor in front of her knew each other.
"Yes, I am Meimei's uncle."
"Uncle!" Lu Xiaoyao exclaimed, her gaze shifting between Mingmei and Ruan Xun, and said, "Those monsters are all so good-looking! They're from the same family."
Bright and beautiful: ? ? ?
Where did your knowledge of biological genetics go?
Is it true that a company only judges people by their looks?
"Pfft~"
Clearly amused by Lu Xiaoyao's words, Ruan Xun nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right~ We are indeed from the same family."
Taking advantage of the slight reflection from her glasses under the light, Ruan Xun's gaze fell on Lu Xiaoyao again.
If Mingmei had seen that inquisitive, curious gaze, she would have grabbed Lu Xiaoyao's hand and cried, "Danger! Run!"
"I'm sorry I'm late."
As the three were talking, a familiar voice came from the doorway.
Mingmei looked up and saw Mu Chen walk in. He glanced at Mingmei, nodded slightly, and then quickly turned his gaze to Ruan Xun, saying, "Dr. Ruan, the cafeteria is serving light food for the late-night snack today. I heard you like snacks, so I brought some I made myself."
"His cooking is so delicious!"
Lu Xiaoyao was fortunate enough to be fed a small piece of pastry made by Mu Chen during a break between classes by Mingmei, and immediately became a die-hard fan of Mu Chen's cooking.
Although Mu Chen didn't really want such a brainless fan and found Lu Xiaoyao mostly annoying, he wouldn't mind if Lu Xiaoyao ate a couple of pastries today, since he had spoken well of him.
Just two pieces!
"Really? Then I'm in for a treat!"
Ruan Xun smiled knowingly, her gaze lingering on Mu Chen for a long time, as if admiring some exquisite object. She curled her lips into a smile and said, "When the previous doctor recommended you as his assistant, I was a little worried that you would be very busy."
"No, it's an honor to be able to help out and learn something here."
"That's good. With your help during this time, I'll be quite relaxed. When you're relaxed, your mind and body feel much better."
Hearing this, Mu Chen revealed a mysterious smile: "It's my honor to have Dr. Ruan have a pleasant life here~"
Mingmei felt that these two were just talking back and forth, completely treating her and Lu Xiaoyao like family.
Do you think they can't understand?
Mingmei believed that she wasn't incapable of understanding; she simply didn't want to know too much.
Smart people don't want to make things difficult for themselves.
Mingmei glanced at Lu Xiaoyao, only to see that her gaze was fixed on Mu Chen's spatial button, the place where the snacks were stored.
Mingmei: "..."
Regarding the question of whether Lu Xiaoyao is wise in disguise, Mingmei felt that she didn't need to say it.
Those who know, know.
"Alright, alright, it's almost dawn. Let's grab some late-night snacks and go home to rest."
Ruan Xun, who had secretly reached some kind of agreement with Mu Chen, smiled with narrowed eyes. The four of them sat in the tea room of the psychological counseling room, enjoying the food that Mu Chen had bought.
Of course, his pastries were indeed quite good, a fact that even Ruan Xun couldn't deny.
However, while Mingmei was drinking her sweet soup, she glanced up at Mu Chen, who was sitting with Ruan Xun, and suddenly noticed that Mu Chen and her uncle were eating snacks and chatting, and both of them had squinted eyes.
Mingmei suddenly shivered.
Help!
Will Mu Chen go astray?
Her uncle's squinty eyes didn't look like a good person at all!
Mingmei nervously stuffed another bite of pastry to calm her nerves, but then she thought, maybe Mu Chen wasn't a good person to begin with.
