Fu Mingxue was suspicious. ’It can’t be that Li guy, can it?’
After all, half an hour had passed.
She walked over and opened the door.
She saw it was indeed Li Zhao standing outside. Just as she was about to speak,
he beat her to it. "I saw you didn’t come to the cafeteria, so I figured you must have been too busy and lost track of time. I borrowed a bowl and chopsticks from the cafeteria and got some food for you."
Fu Mingxue: ...?
’What’s going on? Do I need him to be this kind?’
’Are we that close?’
’This seems a bit presumptuous!’
Just then, Li Zhao spoke up. "This meal costs two-fifty in total. You can just give me two-fifty."
Now that he’d said that, Fu Mingxue felt a little less awkward.
"Well, thank you. But you don’t have to do this next time. I prefer to go to the cafeteria and eat myself."
’It’s not that I’m being paranoid, but can you really just eat food someone else brings you?’
’What if he poisoned me?’
’After all, I think I’m a pretty important person.’
’Besides, we’re not even in the same group. Why would he bring me food?’
’What if this creates a misunderstanding?’
She quickly took out two-fifty from her pocket, then counted out a grain ration coupon for him as well.
Li Zhao took them quite naturally.
"You should eat first. I’ll come back later to discuss things."
Fu Mingxue nodded. "Okay. We can all go to Group Leader Chang over in Group Six to discuss it later."
Li Zhao: "—Okay!"
After agreeing, he turned and left.
Fu Mingxue watched his retreating figure, feeling he was quite strange.
She looked away and was about to close her office door when Qin Wenying popped up out of nowhere.
"Mingxue, I’m here."
Fu Mingxue looked at her. "You didn’t go home?"
"Nope. I went to the hospital. I got there late, so I’m getting back a little late too," Qin Wenying explained.
