What makes you think I will always like you?

"This is only the second day that we have known each other. You have been stupid enough to wait for me for so long and still say that you are not stupid." Chen Lu stretched out two fingers and waved them in front of the girl. "If we had known each other for longer, wouldn't it have been me?" After you sell it, you still have to count the money for me?"

"...You won't sell me." The girl shook her head slightly, "You were very good to me, and you were the only one who helped me at that time."

Chen Lu smiled secretly, "Don't thank me again."

After hearing this, Liang Zhirou's mouth that had just been opened closed tightly. Her little head turned for a while, and then she asked cautiously: "Then, can I treat you to dinner?"

Just when Chen Lu was about to refuse, he found that the girl was bowing her head deeply and pinching the corners of her clothes repeatedly with her fingers.

He cursed himself in his mind, then quickly said with a smile:

"It seems my belly has a mind of its own. Come on, I'm going to kill you."

If I don't accept this girl's gratitude, I'm afraid it will only make her feel even more inferior.

Liang Zhirou seemed to be in a much better mood immediately and nodded repeatedly.

"Then wait until I go back to the dormitory." The girl said softly.

"Just eat in the cafeteria, the rain hasn't stopped yet."

"also..."

Sure enough, I have to go back and get the money.

He took it seriously when he heard that I wanted to kill him. How could someone be so easy to deceive?

As soon as the two entered the cafeteria, they immediately felt a lot warmer.

Since there were a lot of people, Chen Lu gently pinched Liang Zhirou's sleeves and slowly pushed forward together.

Liang Zhirou took advantage of Chen Lu not turning around to look at him for a while, and then at her pinched cuffs.

This kind of gentleness that was just right without crossing the line made her feel full of security.

She inexplicably wished she could walk like this for a little longer if possible.

But the good times didn't last long. When they reached a place with fewer people, Chen Lu let go of his hand and turned around.

"Find a place to sit for a while? I'm not hungry right now."

Liang Zhirou blinked blankly, "Then I'll buy what I want to eat first."

Now Chen Lu didn't understand, "There are more direct-operated stores on the second floor, let's eat together."

"When I finish buying mine, I'll treat you to that one."

After the girl finished speaking, she turned around and left. Before leaving, she poked him twice, as if to say, stay here and don't run around.

While cooking, Liang Zhirou still looked back at him from time to time.

Chen Lu simply found a table and sat down, holding his cheek as if he was thinking, and quietly looking at the mobile phone under the table.

Chen Lu: Boss, boss, I'm in the new cafeteria. Please send me my meal card quickly. Please answer when you receive it.

Jiang Chao: Received, received, over.

Chen Lu: Sneak into the village quietly and don’t want to shoot anyone. Remember not to speak after seeing me.

Jiang Chao:?

Liang Zhirou had already bought her own lunch before Chen Lu could explain in detail.

Chen Lu looked at the dishes on her iron plate and his eyes almost fell out.

A bowl of porridge, a steamed bun, and a portion of shredded potatoes.

That's it.

Gone.

This situation made Chen Lu begin to doubt whether he was really living in the 21st century.

Liang Zhirou sat silently opposite Chen Lu, looking well-behaved.

"That's all? Have you eaten enough?" Chen Lu was really surprised, "No wonder you are so thin."

"You're full." Liang Zhirou said seriously, then she noticed something and quickly added:

"You can eat whatever you want."

The girl's tone was very insistent, fearing that her behavior would make Chen Lu refuse to spend money.

If I don't say I'm not hungry, do you have to wait for me to buy food before you buy what you want to eat?

This is the first time that Mr. Chen has seen a girl who can be so stubborn and adorable in this way.

Chen Lu reached out and took the meal card from the girl's hand, "Give me your card and I'll buy it myself. Don't worry, since you said you wanted to thank me, I will definitely kill you."

Although the girl bought the cheapest meal, she just pursed her lips when handing over her campus card. She felt a little hurt in her heart, but she did not hesitate.

She felt it was appropriate to express her gratitude.

Chen Lu then walked to a place where Liang Zhirou couldn't see him, and completed the "connection" with Jiang Chao who was coming.

"What's wrong with you? Wouldn't it be over if you just went back to the dormitory without bringing your campus card?" Jiang Chao asked curiously.

After that, he seemed to remember something again, and looked at Chen Lu with an aunty smile, "Are you having dinner with the girl who returned your clothes?"

"Ah yes yes yes."

Because he didn't want to hear Jiang Chao mention Mo Yuqing again, Chen Lu didn't answer the question and turned to look at the window.

"Auntie, please have this shrimp and the sweet and sour pork ribs."

"Hey, your hands are shaking like this, it's a bit too much!"

Contrary to what Chen Lu expected, Liang Zhirou's expression showed no ups and downs when he returned with the dish that seemed to cost a lot of money.

Instead, he seemed to feel relieved.

Chen Lu's impression of this girl increased a lot.

Although he didn't know who broke into whose world between the two of them, Chen Lu always felt that Liang Zhirou brought a different color to his life.

He never expected that Liang Zhirou would really be waiting for him there.

The warm mood has not calmed down yet, stirring up ripples in his heart.

After a while, Chen Lu realized something was wrong. The silly girl in front of him had been eating her own food with her head down. She didn't even touch the ribs or shrimps.

"Why didn't you take a bite? I definitely can't finish it myself." Chen Lu asked curiously.

"You eat first, I'm afraid you won't be full..."

"You can eat if you are told to." Chen Lu was speechless.

"I know... I know."

Liang Zhirou took away a piece of spareribs honestly, lowered her head and ate it in small bites, looking up from time to time to see if Chen Lu was angry.

Chen Lu was amused by her behavior again, and seemed to have somehow found a way to deal with this girl.

I said to myself, shouldn't a normal person think that it's none of my business whether you're angry or not?

"If you eat more, I won't be angry with you."

As Chen Lu spoke, he wiped his hands with a wet wipe, silently peeled the shrimps, and eliminated as many ribs as possible.

After all, if there are too many left, it won’t look the same, and this fool will definitely feel distressed.

After a while, a whole plate of peeled shrimps was placed in front of him. Chen Lu just ate two and then collapsed on the chair.

"No, I really can't eat anymore."

Liang Zhirou suddenly raised her head when she heard this and looked at Chen Lu in shock.

Chen Lu pushed the peeled shrimp in front of Liang Zhirou with a painful look on his face, "I haven't touched any of these, you can eat them."

Just as the girl was a little confused, Chen Lu tapped the clean pork ribs with his chopsticks.

"No waste." Chen Lu pretended to be serious.

Chen Lu rarely spoke like this, and it was very uncomfortable to hold back his laughter for a while.

How could any fool just accept this?

It's a miracle that such a fool can grow up to be so old and not be tricked into digging coal.

"...oh."

Although Liang Zhirou looked good when eating, her mouth was still round and bulging, and she looked at Chen Lu innocently.

Immediately, he quickly lowered his head like an ostrich, with an imperceptible blush on his cheeks, as if if I can't see you, I can't see me.

Girls don't seem to like looking like foodies in front of other people.

Looking at the girl with a bulging mouth like a hamster, the corner of Chen Lu's mouth rose inexplicably.

He held his chin and looked at her quietly.

Looking at the drizzle outside, I just feel that the time is gentle and the years are beautiful.

"Why do you still need to save money like this when you are already working part-time?"

Chen Lu couldn't stand the girl's thin arms and asked softly.

Liang Zhirou swallowed what was in her mouth before slowly speaking: "Because mom needs money for medical treatment."

Seeing the girl whose expression suddenly dimmed, Chen Lu simply avoided the topic.

He suddenly felt sorry for this silly girl who had to wait for him despite the rain.

"Is that Lin Miaomiao your friend?"

Seeing the other party nodding, Chen Lu asked again: "Then do I count myself your friend?"

The girl suddenly froze. Although her eyes were covered by bangs, Chen Lu could vaguely see that her eyes were blinking.

Her eyes are really beautiful, so beautiful that Chen Lu can imagine them just by looking at them last night.

It has been engraved in my mind.

"Is it okay?" After a while, the girl asked cautiously, raising her head slightly inadvertently, as if she was expecting something in her heart.

May I?

what are you talking about?

Am I not asking you?

Chen Lu was a little confused, and his CPU almost burned out with these words.

"OK?"

"Thank you." Liang Zhirou said softly, "I only had her as my friend before..."

After hearing this, Chen Lu didn't say anything more. He just took out his mobile phone and put it in front of the girl.

"Since we are all friends, let's have dinner together when we have time."

Liang Zhirou took her mobile phone in both hands and scanned it. Her mobile phone was very old and cheap, but she obviously used it very carefully. It was completely different from Chen Lu's new model that was damaged in the Syrian war.

"Why is your avatar a bubble machine?" Chen Lu couldn't help but asked with a smile.

This was really strange. Originally, he thought it was abstract enough that Jiang Chao's avatar was Brother Kun.

"Because it was given by someone else."

"I've bought this thing before. It was quite expensive when I was a kid. I used to give mine away, and my mother whipped me severely when I got home."

Chen Lu smiled but didn't want to laugh. He thought of the little girl who had probably lost her father, and saw Liang Zhirou in front of him who was saving money every day to treat her mother.

This world is really not gentle at all.
