On Lantern Festival morning, as soon as Han Mingyue sat down, she handed a tin lunchbox to Zhen Yu. Zhen Yu instinctively reached out to receive it, "What’s this? Ah, it’s hot!" Han Mingyue took back the lunchbox, opened it, and pushed it directly in front of Zhen Yu. "Fried Lantern Festival rice balls!" Zhen Yu exclaimed with surprise, her voice a bit loud, causing a good number of classmates in the front rows to turn their heads and look towards her. "How did you know? Ha! I’ve eaten it!" Although she already had breakfast, Zhen Yu felt she could eat a bit more! As for the question she originally wanted to ask, ’How did Han Mingyue know she loved this?’ That was naturally the answer she herself had written to him during yesterday’s game! Hence why she started laughing mid-sentence. Han Mingyue chuckled and shook his head, "Eat up! They were just fried this morning; they won’t taste good once they cool down." "Uh-huh!" Zhen Yu was chewing food and naturally couldn’t respond to his words. Yet, a warm surge filled her heart, moving her inner self to tears streaming! Most classmates had now consciously turned their heads away! After all, staring at someone while they eat is considered a very embarrassing behavior. Of course, the world is full of wonders, and some people might not think so! Therefore, there were still some covert glances directed subtly or overtly at Zhen Yu and Han Mingyue’s seats, including Gu Qing and Lu Mei. In the north, the Lantern Festival rice balls used for frying are quite large; there were eight in the lunchbox, and Zhen Yu reached her limit at the fifth. "Uh!" After a small burp, Zhen Yu turned to Han Mingyue holding her chopsticks. "I can’t eat anymore!" Her innocent facial expression, coupled with a hint of guilt in her eyes for knowing wasting food was shameful, was irresistibly adorable! Han Mingyue evidently had no resistance to this as he reached out his hand without a thought. Only when the chopsticks and lunchbox in front of her changed ownership did Zhen Yu realize Han Mingyue’s intention! "You... you don’t really like sweet stuff, do you?" For this question, Han Mingyue only gave her a gently tilted head with a spring-like smile. In a flash, Zhen Yu’s eyes were dazzled by his radiant smile! Even her breathing stopped for a second! By the time she came to her senses, she could only mutter in a small voice reluctantly, "Don’t eat the half-eaten one..." "Did you bring any water?" Han Mingyue asked Zhen Yu while packing up the lunchbox and chopsticks. Eating too much sweet can naturally make you thirsty. "Ah? Uh, I have!" Zhen Yu pretended to search in the desk hole, but actually pulled out a bottle of Wahaha mineral water from her space, unscrewed the cap quite naturally, and handed it to him. Although he felt the scene was a bit strange, he still had to drink the water that needed drinking. And human behavior at certain times always fully reflects the nature of their social habits! For instance - seeing someone else drinking water can immediately make you feel thirsty! Just under three seconds later, Zhen Yu took out another bottle of water, unscrewed the cap, and started drinking. Watching Han Mingyue and Zhen Yu tilt their necks back to drink, Jia Ming seated behind suddenly felt thirsty too... Han Mingyue was about to screw the cap back on the half-empty bottle and put it in the desk cubby when Jia Ming quickly stretched his arm out to grab him! He also whispered softly, "Han Mingyue! Let me drink that water," "Plunk! Cough cough cough..." Latest content published on novel·fire.net Jia Ming’s sudden movement to lean forward caused him to bump into the desk! And his desk, moving forward by inertia, hit the back of Zhen Yu’s chair! So, Zhen Yu was the unfortunate one! Not only did she choke on her water, but a good amount also splashed across her chest. But this wasn’t even the worst of it! Just as Zhen Yu was about to get up and go outside the classroom to clean up, the bell for morning self-study rang! Zhen Yu managed to control herself not to roll her eyes, but she did secretly flip the heavens off in her mind! Han Mingyue was the first to raise his left hand to pat Zhen Yu’s back, then he passed the half bottle of water he held in his right hand to Jia Ming, giving him a slightly reproachful look. Feeling quite embarrassed about the mishap, Jia Ming quickly took the water and gently apologized, "Sorry! I was too reckless!" "Cough! It’s okay, cough cough..." Zhen Yu responded while coughing and quickly reached her empty hand into the desk cubby as a cover, but actually took out a towel from the space inside and vigorously pressed it against her neck and chest! "Did a lot spill? How much did you drink?" Han Mingyue whispered lovingly. Zhen Yu stopped coughing, and Han Mingyue stopped patting her back. He then took the nearly empty water bottle from Zhen Yu’s hand, screwed the cap back on, and stuffed it into her desk cubby. Although it was already March, the classrooms and dormitories in the north still had the heating on! Thus Zhen Yu wasn’t wearing much inside her cotton jacket, just a slightly thick cotton undershirt, which was not even a turtleneck. Thus quite a bit of water had actually flowed down her neck and continued dripping further down, the cool, damp sensation nearly unbearably refreshing! But would Zhen Yu articulate that directly? Obviously not... So, she casually replied, "It’s okay..." "How about asking the class president for leave so you can go back to the dorm and change?" Han Mingyue worried that Zhen Yu might catch a cold. Zhen Yu, without even thinking, declined, "No need, just help me block people!" Although Han Mingyue did not understand, he still immediately turned sideways to use his back to block the aisle! And he also picked up a 16K textbook, opened it and set it up at the junction of his and Zhen Yu’s desks. Seizing the moment, Zhen Yu quickly pushed the towel through the bottom of her shirt and wiped the water off her belly... Before Han Mingyue could even pretend not to look, Zhen Yu had already pulled the towel back out of her shirt. Then she slightly bent down a bit more, tugging at her collar trying to push the towel into her chest! In a flash, Han Mingyue pushed her head down onto the desk! This completely blocked her upper body with the desk. Zhen Yu’s forehead made a light ’thunk’ as it made close contact with the desk! "Ouch! Why did you hit me?!" Zhen Yu mumbled with her head down while, like tucking in a dinner napkin, she properly stuffed and smoothed the short side of the towel into her neckline before finally standing up straight. Han Mingyue was about to say ’Mind the context!’ but then realized Zhen Yu had actually hung the towel on herself! He then understood that he had misconstrued the situation... but still wasn’t quite sure what to say next. "Me? What about me?" Zhen Yu looked down, "Does it look ugly?"
