Bai Nuo was used to being carried around by Hu Mingmei all the time. After finding a comfortable position in Hu Mingmei's arms, she looked up at him and asked, "Want to eat?"
Hu Mingmei looked down at her, "What's there to eat?"
Bai Nuo leaned out of his arms, opened the food box in front of him, and took out the contents one by one... "Second Master..."
Just as Bai Nuo was about to take out the food box, Lu Ying came in from outside. She didn't even knock; she just pushed the door open. As soon as the door opened, Bai Nuo was stunned, as were Lu Ying and the people behind her.
Bai Nuo leaned out halfway, still holding the lid of the food box in her hand, staring blankly at Lu Ying. Lu Ying stood at the door, completely stunned.
Hu Mingmei reacted quickly, pulling Bai Nuo back and hugging her tightly, leaving Bai Nuo with only her back to Lu Ying.
When Lu Ying saw what was inside, she regretted it so much that she almost wanted to slap herself. She quickly turned around and faced away from the room.
The person following Lu Ying had already reached the door, but Lu Ying turned around and completely blocked the person who wanted to come in.
Bai Nuo buried herself in Hu Mingmei's arms, shifting restlessly. Sensing the movement, Hu Mingmei asked in a deep voice, "What is it?"
Lu Ying was filled with regret. She should have never opened the door before coming in—no, she should have knocked before opening it! Who knew it would be like this inside? "Second Master...I..."
Lu Ying was at a loss for words, unable to explain herself. The person she had blocked outside grew impatient, shoving her aside and standing in the doorway, glancing inside as he spoke, "Young Master Hu..."
But when she spoke, she was completely stunned. When did Hu Mingmei start hugging someone? Who was this person?
Upon hearing the voice, Bai Nuo immediately knew who had come: Lu Ying and Zhang Jingwen. She had just been wondering if Zhang Jingwen had come, and now it turned out she really had.
And they were caught red-handed.
When Zhang Jingwen saw Hu Mingmei holding a woman in his arms and coldly staring at the door, she felt uneasy. But then she thought about how she had finally managed to get rid of Bai Nuo, and now another woman she didn't know had appeared, and Hu Mingmei was holding her so tenderly in his arms that no one could bear to look at her for long!
Zhang Jingwen has been a spoiled child since she was young. She only cares about what she wants and doesn't care about what she doesn't want. How could she stand that the person she likes would find a new love so quickly? But when she thought about it again, Zhang Jingwen became bolder.
Hu Mingmei used to cherish Bai Nuo a lot, but now that Bai Nuo has only been gone for a few days, Hu Mingmei has already switched to someone else so quickly. This shows that neither of these two women is very important to Hu Mingmei, which will make it easier for her to win over Hu Mingmei.
With that thought in mind, Zhang Jingwen wanted to go inside.
However, Lu Ying wouldn't let Zhang Jingwen in. Zhang Jingwen didn't know who was inside, but Lu Ying did—it was Bai Nuo. Hu Mingmei's behavior clearly indicated that he didn't want anyone to disturb him and Bai Nuo's breakfast.
Therefore, Lu Ying immediately stopped her, saying, "Miss Zhang, you can't go in!"
Lu Ying was about a head taller than Zhang Jingwen. When Zhang Jingwen saw Lu Ying's arm across her, she looked at him in confusion and asked, "Didn't you bring me up here? Why won't you let me in now?"
If Lu Ying hadn't brought Zhang Jingwen up, Zhang Jingwen would still be standing at the door right now.
"Things are different now. In short, you can't go in!" Lu Ying said calmly. When he first met Zhang Jingwen, he also disliked her clinging to Hu Mingmei. Hu Mingmei had been ignoring her, yet she still persisted. Putting aside whether Hu Mingmei had someone she loved, Zhang Jingwen's attitude was unpleasant. Since Bai Nuo was also here today, Lu Ying thought he would let Zhang Jingwen in to see the two of them having breakfast, hoping to discourage her. But he never expected the two of them to be hugging.
In this state, Zhang Jingwen absolutely cannot go in!
Those around them could see that Hu Mingmei was fine no matter what, but if an outsider saw Hu Mingmei like this, it would be bad for Bai Nuo's reputation.
Bai Nuo gently patted Hu Mingmei, who looked down at Bai Nuo. Bai Nuo moved her lips and said, "Put me down!"
Hu Mingmei then released her. As soon as she was released, Bai Nuo quickly got down from Hu Mingmei's arms. As soon as she got down, Hu Mingmei quickly reached out and pulled Bai Nuo's collar. Bai Nuo looked down and realized that her clothes were a little disheveled.
So he quickly turned his back to straighten his clothes.
Zhang Jingwen was still arguing with Lu Ying outside until Bai Nuo finished tidying her clothes and sat down. Bai Nuo looked at Hu Mingmei and placed breakfast in front of her—sesame balls, millet porridge, pickled vegetables made from dried plums, and two eggs.
"You eat first, otherwise it will get cold!"
No matter who comes, Hu Mingmei must not be kept from having breakfast.
"Have you eaten?" Hu Mingmei asked as Bai Nuo placed a bowl of congee in front of him. "When did you get up? You're here so early. Let's eat together."
Bai Nuo nodded.
"These are all from home, not as good as what you ate before, please don't mind!" Bai Nuo smiled. "Would you like to try some? I think they're quite delicious!"
The sounds of voices inside gradually rose and reached the doorway, making Zhang Jingwen even more anxious. They were already eating breakfast inside, so what was she going to do about the breakfast she had made?
