After some playful banter, the atmosphere in the entire dormitory improved significantly. During the day, perhaps due to the presence of people, there was not much fear felt.
By the time everyone finished their tasks, it was just about lunchtime at the cafeteria.
The people in the dormitory all exited the Old Dormitory Building and walked through the Small Grove, which appeared quite pleasant during the day. The Cherry Blossoms on both sides emitted a subtle fragrance, adding a unique charm to the scene.
However, even in daylight, as they passed through the Small Grove, Xia Xiaoyu still felt a strange sensation, a sense of familiarity, as if she had been here before. Yet she was certain that she had never been here prior.
Despite her doubts, time was of the essence, and she couldn't afford to think too much. Xia Xiaoyu and Lin Xi headed toward the cafeteria.
The cafeteria was located behind the Teaching Building, so some students had arrived much earlier than them.
When Xia Xiaoyu and her friends reached the cafeteria, they were greeted by a sea of heads bustling inside.
“Xia Xiaoyu, you go get rice; Tian Xiaojing, you get the vegetables; Chen Mumu, go grab a table. I'll buy drinks…”
Perhaps because of last night's banter with Lin Xi, Liu Feifei shot a glance at Lin Xi but didn’t say anything.
Dividing tasks indeed made things more efficient. After about ten minutes, they settled down at a table by the window.
The table was filled with an abundance of dishes. Since they hadn’t eaten anything from last night until noon today, they were already quite hungry!
Without exchanging any polite remarks, they dug right in.
“Feifei, look over there! Who is that?”
"Is that Wood..."
Looking at the honest person, dressed in plain clothes, sitting alone at the back, not glancing around at anyone, just focused on shoveling food into his mouth.
He was still the same, not much had changed, just as honest, just as sincere, wearing the same clothes that seemed out of place...
"I'm going to call him over to eat with us..."
Liu Feifei suddenly became enthusiastic and stood up to walk towards him.
"Why are you calling him over??"
Xia Xiaoyu raised her eyebrows and glanced at the person who looked a bit like a Wood fool. She wasn't sure if it was because he liked her that made her feel a bit disgusted, or if she truly had a habit of looking down on the poor and favoring the rich.
In any case, she had a thought in her heart that she didn't want to see him...
"..."
Liu Feifei ignored her and walked straight towards Cao Bao!
"Hey, Wood!"
With her carefree personality, Liu Feifei called out loudly before even reaching Cao Bao.
This startled Cao Bao, who looked up in confusion at Liu Feifei.
"Hey, what are you doing here!"
Cao Bao stared blankly at Liu Feifei.
"What's wrong? Is it only you who can come to this University?"
Liu Feifei looked at him with a face full of disbelief.
"No, that's not what I meant."
Cao Bao gave a silly smile and shook his head.
"Forget it, come eat with us!"
Actually, Liu Feifei was somewhat surprised. How could someone like Cao Bao, who was such a bookworm and had such good academic standing, end up studying at this University?
Looking at the only small bok choy and shredded carrot on his table, Liu Feifei couldn't help but feel a bit taken aback.
Can he even swallow that?
Just as she swallowed her food, Chen Mumu lifted her head and looked toward a corner at the back of the cafeteria where a honest-looking person was eating with their head down. She gestured to Liu Feifei with her mouth.
Liu Feifei first glanced at Chen Mumu, then followed her gaze and saw the familiar figure in the corner.
