Lu Tian stared intently at the instant noodles and said angrily, "Have you ever seen a parent not give him or her food?"
"That's true." Peng Yangyang took a bite of instant noodles, and all her speculations disappeared immediately.
"Yangyang, the noodles can be eaten once they're spread out, right?"
"right."
Lu Tian smelled the aroma of instant noodles, swallowed happily, put the book away, and took the fork to check the condition of the noodles. Just as Peng Yangyang said, it fell apart when stirred. She picked up a mouthful of noodles and was about to put it into her mouth. Before she opened her mouth, the phone rang again. The caller ID showed that it was the person who had just said goodbye to her.
"Is there anything wrong?" Lu Tian answered the phone with resentment. Instant noodles will not taste good if they are soaked for too long.
Meng Jingdong's voice was as steady as ever, without any emotion. "I'm sorry, I forgot to treat you to dinner. I asked Song Ci to buy you some food. I'm not sure if it suits your taste. Someone will deliver it to your dormitory in about ten minutes. I gave him your number. You and your classmates can go downstairs to get it."
"Okay, thank you." Lu Tian said blankly. Her reaction now was that she didn't expect Meng Jingdong to think of this.
What delicious food could he possibly send? But for some reason, Lu Tian believed it was a feast.
"Yangyang, stop eating!"
Peng Yangyang looked up in surprise: "Why?"
"I have a feeling we'll have a feast in ten minutes!"
Peng Yangyang: “…”
Eight minutes later, Lu Tian answered the phone. The male voice was emotionless, exactly like Meng Jingdong's: "Lu Tian, I'm here to bring you food. Come and get it. It would be best if four people come down."
"Yangyang, let's go!"
Peng Yangyang went down from the third floor with Lu Tian, half believing it and half doubting it. They happened to meet Helian Chen and Jiang Feifei returning to the dormitory in the stairwell, and the four of them went down together.
Lu Zhenzhe and his roommate Chen Kang stood at the bottom of the girls' dormitory, looking at each other in bewilderment. Passing students kept glancing at them. Even if he was courting a girl, he'd never seen someone standing downstairs with a luxurious lunch box, right? Was he delivering food? He was being too much of a traitor, wasn't he?
When Lu Tian and her three companions came out of the dormitory, they immediately saw the resentful duo carrying lunch boxes and cakes. She walked over without hesitation and said, "Hello, I'm Lu Tian."
Lu Zhenzhe moved his mouth, his handsome eyebrows wrinkled together, but he didn't say his name in the end: "Meng Jingdong asked me to come."
"Okay, thank you."
Jiang Feifei followed behind Lu Tian, looking at this and that, but she endured and didn't expose them on the spot. The four of them took the large and still hot lunch boxes and cakes from the two of them, and thanked them very sincerely.
After they carried their lunch boxes upstairs, Jiang Feifei started gossiping slyly, "Lu Tian, why is Lu Zhenzhe bringing you food? Who is that Meng guy he mentioned? Is he your boyfriend?"
Lu Tian said vaguely: "No, my relative."
"Hey, are you and Lu Zhenzhe also relatives?"
"That shouldn't be the case. My relative asked me for a favor and didn't have time to treat me to a meal, so please ask him to bring it over." Lu Tian guessed the truth calmly.
The four of them opened the lunch boxes and found that it was from a very famous hotel near the school. The dishes were also signature dishes, including black pepper beef tenderloin, prawns in tomato sauce, pepper and sesame chicken, and another dish that looked like stir-fried pork liver with green peppers.
"Hey, why is there pig liver?"
Lu Tian silently chanted in his heart to replenish blood.
Lu Zhenzhe used to be a food delivery boy, so he obediently replied to Meng Jingdong's message: "I've already delivered it to her."
"It's not appropriate to tip. I'll thank you in person next time." After a long time, Meng Jingdong replied with a few words.
"What is your relationship with her?"
Meng Jingdong responded quickly this time: "You are not allowed to like her. She and I are in a legal relationship."
Is it legal? Middle school student Lu Zhenzhe covered his face and wailed, while his bribed friend Chen Kang stifled a laugh: "How does it feel to have the person you like become your sister-in-law?"
"Shut up!" Lu Zhenzhe said angrily. He didn't reply to Meng Jingdong's message. Instead, he found Lu Tian's number, edited a text message and sent it to her.
"I'm sorry, please forget the friend verification message I sent you last time."
Lu Tian took a bite of prawns while smelling the aroma of instant noodles. After thinking for a moment, she remembered what Lu Zhenzhe had sent. She suppressed a smile and replied to him, "Okay."
By the way, I accepted his friend request.
Gu Yi swiped his card and signed the bill without changing his expression, and asked, "Do you want to buy anything else?"
"No need, big brother, just accompany your girlfriend. I've already received benefits, how can I be a light bulb?"
"Okay, tell me what you want next time."
Lu Tian happily picked up her bag and left: "Okay, thank you, big brother."
Her smile was sweet, but not flattering at all. Gu Yi was stunned, and inexplicably felt that she was... frank?
Lu Tian and the other three walked out of the luxury store. The other three didn't dare to speak. They went to the second floor to sit in the dessert shop to rest before they remembered to speak. Jiang Feifei said unsteadily: "Lu, Lu Tian, that's your big brother? He's so rich, he's so good to you, I also want a big brother like him!"
"Girl, if you know the truth, you may not really want it!" Lu Tian said softly.
"Ah? Is he your cousin or something?" Helian Chen asked. They all knew that Lu Tian had only one younger brother in her family, and it was not difficult to guess based on the bloody life story she had told before.
Lu Tian nodded and did not deny it.
The four of them had some desserts, ran to the cosmetics counter to buy some things and returned to school. Just as they stepped into the school gate, Lu Tian received a call from Meng Jingdong. She lagged behind her roommates and swiped the phone screen.
"Lu Tian, is it convenient to talk now?"
Meng Jingdong has always been very polite. In the original novel, he is a cold and aloof boss. Lu Tian guessed that it was because of Lu Chengyang. She cleared her throat and said, "Okay, go ahead."
"We've already discussed it with the hospital. Now it depends on when you can come over. If you have trouble getting leave, I can help you get a certificate, or I can talk to your supervisor."
