"No, that's not it." Mu Run denied it outright.
"Um?"
Mu Run briefly explained the situation to Su Jiesheng, "So, Your Highness, out of friendship as classmates, helped me with a small favor."
"Oh, so much help has gone this far?" Jason Su pointed his two index fingers suggestively, mimicking a kissing gesture.
Mu Run pushed up his non-prescription glasses and asked calmly, "Teacher Su, you haven't had a boyfriend before, have you?"
Jason Su, a die-hard single man, was instantly dealt a critical blow.
Seeing him frozen in place, Mu Run smiled. She had only said it casually, but she hadn't expected it to hit the mark so unexpectedly.
Carrying the little black-horned rabbit, I walked happily towards the dormitory.
Mu Run took all the things she bought at the supermarket out of the alternate dimension and put them in the kitchen... oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, pots and pans... and a small bag of black tea.
The tea here is very expensive!
Absolutely a luxury item!
A small bag of black tea, weighing only 30 grams, cost her 50,000 gold coins.
This is outrageous!
You know, she bought a whole bunch of things and didn't even spend 10,000 gold coins, but this tiny little thing costs 50,000! The key point is, this isn't even a rare or high-quality tea, it's just ordinary tea.
She only found out by asking the salesperson.
There was a mythical beast called the Miyaluo Clan, who were very interested in human tea. In the early stages of their war with humans, they seized the opportunity to plunder a great deal of tea from the earth, uprooting many tea trees. Later, when they were defeated and retreated, they destroyed all the tea trees they couldn't take with them. This led to the near extinction of tea trees on earth, and tea disappeared from the market for many years.
Currently, tea is only available in large supermarkets like Wan Ke; smaller supermarkets still don't sell it.
Mu Run brewed a cup of tea.
First, he smelled the aroma of the tea... then frowned!
Such expensive tea has no natural tea aroma at all; it's all artificial flavoring.
A small sip is bitter and leaves no sweet aftertaste.
For Mu Run, who is used to drinking the fragrant tea from Chongyang Mountain, this kind of tea is not as good as drinking plain water.
Mu Run looked at the brownish-red tea soup; the color was quite tempting, but she lost all desire to drink it.
"I wonder if I can return the remaining tea." Looking at the remaining twenty-five grams of tea, I felt a pang of regret.
'Knock knock knock~' Someone knocked on the door.
Mu Run opened the door, and a woman in her thirties or forties appeared, carrying a rather large insulated box. "Mu Run, are you? I'm Guan Qiong, the dormitory manager for the girls' dormitory, introduced by our counselor, Lao Zhang."
"Hello, Aunt Guan," Mu Run greeted politely.
Guan Qiong handed the insulated box to Mu Run, saying, "This is corn from my family's garden, freshly boiled. Let Mu Run have a taste."
"Really?" Mu Run was pleasantly surprised. Although she had also bought fresh corn, she hadn't cooked it yet.
"Let me know if you like it, and I'll bring some more tomorrow."
"Okay. By the way, Aunt Guan, is it okay to cook in the dormitory? I'm craving something to eat, so I'd like to cook something or boil some water."
"The regulations don't say it's not allowed. If you know how to cook, that's fine too, but please be careful with fire," Guan Qiong replied.
"Okay." Mu Run took the insulated box. "Thank you, Aunt Guan."
"You're welcome. You can eat first. I'll be over there in the dorm. Call me anytime."
"Okay, thank you, Aunt Guan."
After seeing Guan Qiong off, Mu Run carried the insulated food container and went into the kitchen.
I placed the insulated container on the counter and looked at the pile of things I had bought from the supermarket. Instead of tidying up, I opened the container first... and a rich, sweet aroma of corn wafted out.
"It smells so good!" It's a smell I haven't had in a long time!
