Chapter 90 Tell her something

 “What do you want to eat? I’ll cook it for you.”

“Just make whatever you want.” After eating Meng Chuyuan’s Coke Chicken Wings last time, Lu Qianling knew that her cooking skills were not bad, so she could eat whatever Meng Chuyuan did later.

"Then let me see what else is in the kitchen and get you something." She happened to be a little hungry, so she cooked something for herself.

Meng Chuyuan got up and went to the kitchen. When she saw some noodles in the cabinet, she took them out, then took some lettuce, a spring onion and two eggs from the refrigerator.

She filled a pot of water to boil, and also mixed the ingredients for a bowl of soup. Then she fried two eggs in the pan next to it, set them aside, and then washed the lettuce.

   Lu Qianling has been in the kitchen since Meng Chuyuan fried eggs.

While Meng Chuyuan was chopping onions, she turned to look at Lu Qianling and asked softly: "Do you eat onions?"

 “I don’t eat scallions.”

“Okay, I’ll leave the green part to you.” After Meng Chuyuan cut the onions, he deliberately separated out the white ones.

When the water was almost boiling, Meng Chuyuan took out the noodles and boiled them till soft. Finally, he put the lettuce into the pot and boiled it until cooked. He also poured in the seasonings and stirred them evenly. Then he took the noodles out and put them into a bowl.

Meng Chuyuan put the fried eggs on the noodles, sprinkled some chopped green onion, and brought them to Lu Qianling: "Be careful with the scalding."

Lu Qianling took the bowl of hot clear soup noodles with both hands. She couldn't help but lower her head and take a sip of the soup. She said from the bottom of her heart: "It's really good."

 The two of them came to the dining table carrying a bowl of noodles and sat facing each other.

Lu Qianling was probably really hungry. The noodles that had just come out of the pot were indeed a little hot, but she couldn't hide her eager look.

 “Eat slowly, no one will compete with you.”

Lu Qianling chewed a mouthful of noodles and said slurredly: "Meng Xiaomei, the noodles you cook are so delicious."

Hearing this familiar title, Meng Chuyuan frowned in confusion. She stared at Lu Qianling and asked, "How do you know the name Meng Xiaomei?"

"Have you forgotten?" Lu Qianling looked up at her and said, "You bought me a steam eye mask. The buyer's nickname is on the logistics list."

Meng Chuyuan: “…”

That's because she used to call her Xiaomei when her grandma was here. Later, after her grandma passed away, Meng Chuyuan never heard the title "Xiaomei" again, so she changed all her nicknames to Meng Xiaomei, as if her grandma had never left. Just like her.

 She has been using this nickname for a long time because she has already let go of it. Now when she opens various platform software, she no longer feels anything when she sees this.

 But she didn't expect that these three words coming out of Lu Qianling's mouth would suddenly remind her of her grandmother.

Lu Qianling had almost eaten half a bowl of noodles. When she raised her head again, she saw that Meng Chuyuan had not taken a bite. She asked curiously: "Why don't you eat?"

"Meng Xiaomei is not what you should call me." Meng Chuyuan looked at her without changing his expression and said lightly: "I am your sister-in-law after all. If you don't want to call me sister-in-law, then call me sister."

 “Why can’t I shout? Meng Xiaomei is so kind.”

“…” Meng Chuyuan did not correct her statement.

 After all, the story here is too complicated and Lu Qianling doesn't know about it. What's her fault?

Meng Chuyuan picked up the chopsticks and ate noodles with her: "What time will you go to school tomorrow?"

“I have to arrive at school at 7:30 and have to leave at 6:30, but it’s okay if I arrive a little late for morning reading.”

  Sometimes it is inevitable that you will encounter traffic jams or other situations, and there is nothing you can do about it if you are late.

Meng Chuyuan nodded and asked, "Are there many day students in your class?"

When asked about this, Lu Qianling suddenly laughed. She looked at Meng Chuyuan and even said with some pride: "It's just me, do you believe it?"

School teachers often tried to persuade her to consider living on campus, including her family members, but she just didn't want to.

Moreover, the school's bed space is relatively tight, so it is impossible to give her special treatment and free up an empty dormitory for her to live in just because she has special requirements.

"I believe it." Meng Chuyuan nodded and did not ask any more questions: "Eat quickly, then take a shower and go to bed."

  —

 The next day, Meng Chuyuan got up at around five o'clock.

 After washing, she went downstairs and went straight to the kitchen, where she made a few sandwiches, fried dumplings and boiled eggs.

“It smells so good.” When Lu Qianling came downstairs with her schoolbag on her back, Meng Chuyuan also heated up the milk.

Lu Qianling came to the restaurant smelling the aroma, looked at the sumptuous breakfast on the table, and licked her lips unconsciously.

Looking at Meng Chuyuan pouring milk, Lu Qianling asked curiously: "Did you make this breakfast?"

“Well, don’t you want to go to school?” Meng Chuyuan poured a cup of hot milk and handed it to Lu Qianling, indicating: “Eat quickly, I’ll take you to school after eating.”

Lu Qianling pulled out the chair next to her and sat down. After listening to Meng Chuyuan's words, she showed a surprised expression: "You want to send me to school?"

  She was suddenly a little confused.

 Why was Meng Chuyuan suddenly so nice to her?

 Make breakfast for her and send her to school?

Meng Chuyuan peeled an egg for her and stuffed it directly into her mouth: "Eat quickly, you won't be able to catch up soon."

 After breakfast, Meng Chuyuan drove her to school, and then walked around the nearby school district.

She was thinking last night that Lu Qianling ran home after school and wasted too much time going back and forth. Since she didn't want to live on campus, it would be more convenient to rent a house for her near the school.

Meng Chuyuan has been out looking at houses this morning. She thought the environment was good and put it on the selection list. When Lu Qianling had no classes, he would bring her over to take a look.

Back at Lu's house, Meng Chuyuan happened to catch Mother Lu talking on the phone, but she saw that Mother Lu's mood seemed not quite right.

Meng Chuyuan didn't mean to eavesdrop, because Mother Lu knew she was coming in and didn't deliberately avoid it. She continued talking on the phone: "I won't go, I don't know anything."

Seeing that Mother Lu was a little excited, Meng Chuyuan didn't dare to disturb her. She changed her shoes and was about to quietly go upstairs when Mother Lu suddenly waved her hand to signal her to come over.

Meng Chuyuan looked puzzled and walked over slowly.

After Meng Chuyuan came over, Mother Lu said into the phone: "Your wife is back, tell her if you have anything to do."

 The next second, Mother Lu had handed the phone to Meng Chuyuan.

Meng Chuyuan was stunned for a moment. She took the phone and said calmly: "Lu Qingye?"

"It's me." His voice was low and steady, with a bit of cold gentleness.

 Mother Lu sat next to him, saying nothing, looking a little unhappy.

Meng Chuyuan had some doubts in her eyes. She glanced at Mother Lu, then slowly sat down and asked softly: "Is something wrong?"

She just came back. I don’t know what Lu Qingye said to her mother, but judging from Lu’s mother’s behavior, she must have encountered something unpleasant.

After Meng Chuyuan sat down, she turned on her phone hands-free and listened with Lu's mother.
