Chapter 638 - It Was All Worth It! (2/2)
“Josephine is exaggerating!” Gu Nianzhi grinned widely After all, she was a terrible cook back in the Huaxia Eh praise frorant roasted fish on separate long white china plates rie tray
Josephine took charge leading her to the dining rooorously “I’ll also bring ether”
“Ok!” Josephine nodded She also didn’t understand why the Reverend Mother insisted Gu Nianzhi eat alone in the room It wasn’t the first time they had hosted lost travelers in the nunnery, and they had all dined together like family
Gu Nianzhi was very touched by her words and smiled “But Reverend Mother o downstairs?”
“That’s fine! We’re only eating together, why does itof it “Also you roasted fish for us Those other travelers did nothing but expected us to serve the nervous In the past, she probably would’ve been one of the oblivious travelers who expected to be served They walked to Gu Nianzhi’s roo out her breakfast tray Gu Nianzhi glanced at it The red cherrywood tray was laden with three bone china plates One carried two golden muffins with roasted blueberries, and another had a slice of blueberry cake with two red strips of bacon along with yellow scra looked good, except for the blueberries As they went downstairs together, Gu Nianzhi thought about digging the roo table
They all stood up in greeting when Josephine came over and looked at Gu Nianzhi with curiosity and asked, “Who is she? A new sister?”
“No, she’s not a new sister but a lost traveler She’s just staying here teestured for Gu Nianzi to set down the tray of fish “She roasted fish for everyone It sood!”
The three nuns were instantly interested in the fish Their eyes gleamed, and they were suddenly very friendly towards Gu Nianzhi Gu Nianzhi wanted to snicker It was a pri benefits Josephine and Gu Nianzhi sat across from the three nuns and moved Gu Nianzhi’s breakfast tray to her A rather thin nun across froingly “Cererus, you have bacon and scraet bacon once a week”
Gu Nianzhi looked at the other three nuns’ breakfasts Each had two blueberry muffins and a slice of blueberry cake like she did However, the nuns also had a bowl of oats
Josephine explained sheepishly to Gu Nianzhi, “Don’t listen to her It’s actually good to have bacon only once a week That’s healthier”
Gu Nianzhi happily divided the roasted fish to give to each nun and quietly asked Josephine, “You always treat travelers staying here like that?”
“Of course not You’re the led “Reverend Mother not only made your breakfast herself but delivered it to your room, too!”
“Oh…” Gu Nianzhi’s heart sank as she recalled the rules Huo Shaoheng and his ers She pushed the tray aside and traded with the nun who said she liked bacon and scras “Sister, I happen to crave oathted “Ok! Thank you, Sister Cereus!”
Josehine didn’t think anything was amiss and was happy to see Gu Nianzhi offer her bacon She didn’t stop them at all Gu Nianzhi traded meals with the nun, and because all the other nuns happened to wait for Josephine to eat, they hadn’t touched the food yet and were able to swap cleanly Everyone was very satisfied and ate both Gu Nianzhi’s roast fish with the nunnery’s breakfast They chatted happily and enjoyed their ti to borrow their phone to make a call, but when Josephine took her to Reverend Mother’s roo
“Just wait a bit more” Josephine quickly said, “Didn’t you say you needed a charger? Only the Reverend Mother has an iPhone charger”
“Ok” Gu Nianzhi had no other choice but to nod in agreement “I’ll wait some more”
She headed back with Josephine, and just as they turned the corner, a nun came over and said to Josephine, “Sister Josephine, Tess just passed out suddenly I took her back to her roo, but I can’t wake her up no matter what I do”
Josephine was amused “Asleep? Did she pass out or fall asleep?” They went to the room of the nun named Tess Gu Nianzhi observed carefully and saw that it was the nun who had traded breakfasts with her that ! Her heart sank as she retreated
Josephine was focused on Tess and bent over to feel her forehead, then checked her breathing with her hand She laughed “It’s fine She’s just sleeping, so let’s just let her sleep awhile If she gets a fever, we can take her to hospital” Josephine moved aside, and Gu Nianzhi went to look at the nun Her cheeks were ruddy, and her breathing was even She was sleeping very deeply Gu Nianzhi reached out to pinch the nun’s face hard Typically, a pinch would wake up someone who suddenly passed out and fallen asleep But despite Gu Nianzhi’s vicious pinch, Tess continued to sleep soundly She just had breakfast and immediately fell into a deep sleep like this, so she basically fainted?
Gu Nianzhi already knew that there was so with the Reverend Mother As for the others? Gu Nianzhi didn’t want to delve too deeply into it right now At least the four other nuns should be fine, but at a time like this, Gu Nianzhi had no moment to spare to analyze which of the five nuns were friends or foes She had no tiy She was only worried that this incident was related to the people trying to hunt her down Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence? She was only staying teht? It didn’t make sense if it was a simple robbery or murder With the tattered clothes she ca like a wealthy person On the other hand, the people trying to hunt her doere oency calls to the police and use Trojan viruses to hack into people’s phones If they had pursued her here…
She’d better leave right away! Gu Nianzhi i to anyone Shea bit sleepy I can’t even keep ot up too early and want to catch up on sleep now I’ll come back after the Reverend Mother wakes up”
Josephine nodded “Ok, you really did wake up too early today Go to bed I haveprayers with two sisters in Rose Hall over there and won’t be able to come out I’ll wake you up when it’s tio ask Reverend Mother to borrow her phone and charger”
Gu Nianzhi was glad to hear that the three nuns had ht away She nodded quickly “Go on, I’ll get some sleep Oh, my eyes won’t even stay open How can I be so sleepy?” As she spoke, she headed to her roo the corner in the opposite direction They entered a doorway and closed it gently
