Chapter 179 - EATING LUNCH (1/2)

”DID something happen?  I've been waiting for almost ten minutes outside,” Luo Jin said.

His brother told him that he should wait outside the teaching building of the third years until he came out himself.  Then the two of them would wait for that classmate of his that he suspected was a Blacksmith and followed her to wherever place she planned on eating lunch.  That was the plan.

So he waited and waited and waited.  When he couldn't take it anymore, he finally decided to go in.  But who would have thought that he would find Luo Yan being surrounded by other third years.  He couldn't help but think that something happened that included the participation of his brother.  Not to mention, he glanced at the tall girl standing beside his brother and who looked like she'd rather not be here at all, this girl was most probably the classmate Luo Yan was talking about.

What happened to following her 'stealthily' and acting like they only accidentally happened to go to the same restaurant she did?  How come the both of them were suddenly together?  He narrowed his eyes at the two people standing in front of him.  Something fishy was definitely happening here.

Yu Jiao squirmed.  Being stared at like this felt like he was about to punch her or something.  Now she finally understood why the reputation of this third young master was so terrible.  Just a bit narrowing of his eyes and he could already make people wobble on their feet.

Luo Yan noticed Yu Jiao fidgeting again.  He sighed.  This girl was really a bit timid.  He looked at his younger brother who looked at them suspiciously.  If he knew right now what just happened, this kid would definitely go berserk.  He would definitely drag that Ying Chen and beat him unceremoniously.

If that slap really reached his white and tender cheek, he would definitely not hesitate to tell what happened to Luo Jin.  He might even join him in beating up that Ying Chen.  But it didn't happen.  There's no point now in getting revenge.  Especially since he already did quite a damage to that 'pretty boy'.  He didn't have the hobby of kicking an already beaten up kitten.  He's not that sadistic.

But looking at his younger brother's expression, he knew that Luo Jin would not let this topic go until he got a satisfying answer.  So, he could only leave it to his ever reliable acting skills.

He raised his head, blinking his big, watery eyes, and said in a grievous tone.  ”Ah Jin, I'm hungry.  Doctor Han said I should always eat on time.”

And just like that, Luo Jin's interrogation ended.  He no longer cared about what happened and could only think of how to get to the cafeteria at the fastest speed.  ”Why didn't you say this earlier?  Then we wouldn't have to stay here for so long.”

Luo Yan pouted.  ”But Ah Jin seemed to be more interested in knowing the answer to his question.”

Luo Jin remembered that it seemed to be really the case.  ”Forget it.  Let's just go.”

Yu Jiao, standing on the side, was dumbfounded.  She had no idea what exactly just happened.  She just knew that the two would be eating lunch and that meant that she could also go.

”Ahm, then, I- I'll go ahead.”

But before she could take a step, her arm was suddenly hugged.  She looked down and saw Luo Yan staring up at her.

”What are you saying, Yu Jiao?  You'll be eating with us.  It's my treat, because you help me today.”

”I- I didn't do anything.”

Luo Yan almost laughed when he saw Yu Jiao's reaction.  It's like he's threatening her with a knife instead of inviting her to lunch.

”Don't worry, we won't go to the big cafeterias.  In fact, you could choose the place we should eat.”
