Before they knew it, lunch break already ca quicker than they thought.
The mont the university bell rang, they all went to the cafeteria to find a table so they can talk over lunch.
"Don't you know how much I've been waiting for ti to arrive? I an… what happened with you dashing off from the classroom? I can't help but think why you did that."
With Shu Xian rolling her eyes at him, she sighed, already walking faster than those two people who are with her.
"We're going to talk about it this lunch. Be patient!"
As they already arrived in the cafeteria, a lot of students were already seated and either talking with their friends, doing their school work, or eating their lunches.
The mont they saw a table which is found on the far corner of the cafeteria, they sat and took out their lunch boxes, Shi Lian, getting her wallet instead.
"Wait for . I'll get sothing to eat."
With her already walking away, Shu Xian drank so of her water for a while, Zhang Ren, looking at her with furrowed brows.
"You know… you're kinda worrying . Is the professor in any way, making things difficult for you?"
Shu Xian shook her head. She sensed sincerity in Zhang Ren's voice, too, making her look at him with a smile on her face.
"Don't worry… nothing of the kind," Shu Xian assured, letting out a small sigh. "It's just that… he's been asking sothing so shaless, so I'm not sure on how to take it," she added, Shi Lian, already arriving with a lunch tray.
Her lunch tray only had congee, bao, and then a bottled water. Looking at her lunch, Shu Xian sighed, opening her lunch box to reveal atballs.
"We can share our lunch with you if you want," she suggested, Shi Lian's eyes lighting up as she saw how delicious Shu Xian's lunch is.
"Wow! Thank you!"
Shi Lian then expectantly looked at Wang Lei's lunch box. With him opening his lunch for Shi Lian to see, it revealed sweet and sour fish, making her eyes sparkle like stars in the sky.
"Lem taste yours!"
Wang Lei couldn't help but choke on his own saliva, making Shu Xian furrow her brows with how perverse Wang Lei had thought.
Taking this as an opportunity to tease him, though, Shi Lian narrowed her eyes at him and made a suggestive comnt.
"You're thinking of sothing different, huh? Why? Do you want to taste—"
"Shi Lian, Wang Lei…"
Shu Xian interrupted, both of them looking at her.
"You guys, no suggestive conversations in front of food please. Have rcy on this innocent girl. Geez... how can you two speak this way when you just t?"
With them already getting their chopsticks—for Shi Lian, spoon since she's having congee—the three of them started eating, rembering the topic that they are about to talk.
"Anyway, what happened that made you run away from professor?"
With Shi Lian asking the question before she put a spoonful of congee in her mouth, Shu Xian bit her bottom lip, what she said next surprising her two friends with her.
"He asked what I talked about with Wang Lei… and I told him that I asked how to attract a man."
"What?"
Zhang Ren 's rice in his chopsticks fell back in his lunchbox. With this already told, Shi Lian furrowed her brows, validating what Shu Xian had told them.
"Wait, wait…" Shi Lian put her spoon down for a while. "So you were talking with my brother last night about how to attract n?"
"Yes."
Shi Lian arched a brow at her and said, "I know that my brother drank with you-know-who and stayed the night, but I didn't know that you were having such a conversation with my brother. Why?"
Shu Xian sighed, looking at Zhang Ren as he is now part of the group quicker than the girls even realized.
Besides, Shu Xian didn't know why, but she sohow knows that Zhang Ren is a person whom they can trust with anything.
"I trust you… so you won't tell anything about this, yeah?"
"Sure," Zhang Ren said, a smile appearing on his face. "I don't have friends. You guys are the only few ones I have. Cross my heart."
With that said, Shu Xian took a bite of her atballs. As she chewed with her rice, she then swallowed, further telling everyone about Pan An's mother asking a favor from her of making Pan An fall for her so that he would forget his ex.
Zhang Ren and Shi Lian were all ears on their friend, willing to listen as they didn't interrupt her while she continued talking.
"So to cut the long story short… I was only asking Wang Lei how to get you-know-who's attention. However, when Pan An got curious about it because of your brother's wink, he threatened that he will make late to class. So I told him I asked how to attract n and didn't answer his why."
"Because you already ran away?" Zhang Ren asked, Shu Xian, nodding in agreent.
"Yes. Because I already ran away."
Shi Lian couldn't help but laugh out loud. With her clapping her hands, both of them were looking at her, wondering what she's laughing about.
"You know, he might be uncomfortable with the thought of you wanting to attract other n when you only don't want him to know that it's him you're targeting."
With Shi Lian saying this, Zhang Ren already got what she ant, a grin already creeping to his face as he chuckled.
"Am I missing sothing?" Shu Xian asked, arching a brow at both of them.
Zhang Ren looked at her, his grin still not leaving his face.
"You see… the mont you ran away, he asked Shi Lian if her brother is working as we speak. She told yes and even warned him of his pissed off attitude at the ti of the day, but still proceeded to call... maybe to ask about it from him."
"Oh, geez…"
With Shu Xian's hands covering her face, her two friends kept laughing, Shi Lian, shaking her head as she took this opportunity to get one of Shu Xian's atballs.
"Don't worry. If my brother telling you-know-who about it is what you're worrying about, I can vouch for that stupid oaf—my brother won't say a thing."
With Shi Lian saying this, Shu Xian felt assured, removing both of her hands from her face.
"Since you know your brother too well, then I trust you."
With that, the three of them then continued talking about it over lunch ti, after this, already the duty of Shu Xian and Zhang Ren in the library.
