Yan Su felt a little speechless.
âIs it really okay for you to say that about Mr. Nian?â She thought.
At that moment, Luosangâs phone started ringing. She spent a short while staring at the phone screen, then answered the call with a warm voice, âDarling, I just left class. Iâm going to the canteen for lunch with Su... No, of course not. The food served in our canteen is delicious. I havenât been here for a while. I missed the food here... Donât worry, I wonât eat outside. Ever since we got together, you taught me that the food out there isnât safe every single day... Youâre coming here to see me? I donât think thatâs necessary... Sure, sure, Iâll take a picture of our lunch for you later when we get to the canteen.â
After ending the call, Luosang sighed, âHe called to check on me every time I left home. Do you now know how miserable my life is? Iâm telling you, do not get married at a young age. I buried myself in the grave of marriage at such a beautiful age, and I got pregnant.â
âWell...â Yan Su didnât even know what to say. She put an arm around Luosangâs shoulders and comforted her, âItâs alright. I know sometimes Mr. Nian tries to control your life even harder than your mom ever did, but thatâs because he cares for you, right?â
âLetâs go to the canteen to take a picture for him, and then have that roast fish,â said Luosang.
âUm... If Mr. Nian happens to find out that we had roast fish together, would he kill me?â Yan Su was a little worried.
âIf you donât tell and I donât tell, whoâd ever know?â Luosang dragged her toward the canteen.
When they were waiting in a line for the food, many people came to say hi to them. Luosang bought a lunch box, then quickly took a picture of it and sent it to Nian JuntingââDarling, the lunch is pretty rich today. We have pork and fish.â
Nian Junting replied with a frown emojiââIt looks awful. I bet it tastes awful too.â
Luosang did not want to continue that conversation.
She put away that lunch box and quickly walked out of the canteen with Yan Su, then saw Mo Liuxi coming toward them.
Before Yan Su could say anything, Luosang waved at Mo Liuxi already.
Mo Liuxi blinked, then walked up to the two of them. His eyes quickly scanned across Yan Su, then landed on Luosangâs face.
âWhy are you here? Why didnât you tell me?â He asked.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âA famous host is giving a lecture in our department today. I think itâs important. I spent a long time to convince Nian Junting to let me come here,â Luosang felt a little guilty. She wanted to invite him for lunch too, but he always seemed to have issues with Yan Su.
Mo Liuxi frowned and said, âI am disappointed. I am your brother who was parted with you for twenty years, yet you went to Yan Su instead of me when you came to school. Is she more important to you than I am?â
Luosang gave a start. She wasnât expecting to hear that from her brother. It sounded like she had hurt his feelings so badly.
âItâs not like that. Weâve seen each other last week, right? I havenât seen Yan Su since the wedding. Besides, youâre my brother, so weâll always have chances to see each other,â Luosang hurriedly explained, âWhy donât you have lunch together with us? How do feel about roast fish?â
âSure,â Mo Liuxi nodded, upturned his mouth corners.
Luosang sighed with relief. What she didnât want the most was for her brother to be unhappy.
Yan Su silently dropped her head.
âWhat a liar!â She thought. She would not believe that he was sad because Luosang didnât tell him about her coming to school.
The roast fish restaurant was about eight minutes of walking away from the school. The three of them headed toward that place by foot. On their way, Mo Liuxi suddenly fixed his eyes on a milk tea place and said, âDo you girls want some milk tea?â
Luosang was touched, because her brother never made such warm suggestions.
