Chapter 153: Three Awkward Meetings

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Yang Xin and Leng Yan did not expect Zheng Yue to work so hard. She even had to work two jobs a day.

When Zheng Yue, who was still holding the cake, saw Yang Xin and Leng Yan appear in the shop where she worked, she immediately pursed her lips and walked over to place the cake on the table. Then, she turned around and left.

Yang Xin looked at Zheng Yue walking away quickly in confusion and sensed something.

At noon in the canteen, Zheng Yue didn’t seem to want to talk to them. Now that she saw the other party like this, she was not surprised.

“What is this att.i.tude?” Yang Xin, who had been treated like this for the second time, pouted. She clearly stared unhappily in the direction Zheng Yue had left. “Are we ferocious beasts?”

This question was thrown to Leng Yan, but Leng Yan didn’t quite understand what was going on with Zheng Yue.

With this, Yang Xin and Leng Yan naturally didn’t have the appet.i.te to continue eating their afternoon tea.

The two of them returned to school and complained to Murong Qiao, who was writing in the dormitory, about today and Zheng Yue.

However, as they chatted, the topic changed to how there was no delicious food near the school. The more they spoke, the more they drooled.

Murong Qiao’s appet.i.te was also aroused by their words. The three of them decided to go for a meal.

This was considered their first gathering since school started. After the three of them decided, they inevitably thought of Zheng Yue.

Although what happened in the afternoon made her a little unhappy, Yang Xin still had a good impression of Zheng Yue, so she called someone to ask if Zheng Yue was free to have a meal together tonight.

“She said that she’s going to the library to study tonight.” Yang Xin hung up the phone and explained to the other two.

Murong Qiao had no objections, and Leng Yan expressed that she was fine with it.

After all, Zheng Yue was working so hard to earn money and had to take care of her studies at the same time. They didn’t force her.

Hence, the three of them dressed up and took a taxi to a high-end western cafeteria to eat.

However, as soon as she entered, Murong Qiao saw Zheng Yue standing at the door in a waiter’s outfit. Yang Xin and Leng Yan, who entered later, also saw this scene. They looked at each other and were speechless.

“h.e.l.lo, may I ask—” Zheng Yue only heard a voice at the door and instinctively walked over with a smile. In the end, she met Murong Qiao and the other two’s eyes and her words stopped abruptly.

Unfortunately, this was the third time they had met awkwardly today.

Seeing that the person who should be studying in the library was now working here in a waiter’s uniform, Yang Xin didn’t know what to say.

Being stared at by the three of them, Zheng Yue immediately felt embarra.s.sed. She didn’t expect to be so unlucky today. She had actually been seen working by her roommates a few times in a row.

She stood there with a professional smile on her face, unable to retreat.

“h.e.l.lo, we’d like to order.” Murong Qiao spoke first in the silence, as if she knew how Zheng Yue was feeling at this moment. She deliberately didn’t greet her and acted like a normal guest.

Murong Qiao ordered the dishes for the three of them in order. Then, she made some requests that the chef had to pay attention to.

Zheng Yue also looked like she had been saved. She hurriedly lowered her head and began to remember the order Murong Qiao had mentioned.

“That’s about it.” As she spoke, the three of them found a table and Murong Qiao was almost done ordering. “Keep the change.”

Tipping the waiter was a custom in high-end Western cafeterias. Murong Qiao took out a few red notes and placed them in Zheng Yue’s palm.

Other than the cost of the food, the waitress could keep any additional tips. It was also a way to earn extra money. Looking at the additional 500 yuan in her hand, Zheng Yue was stunned for a moment and she became much happier.

After ordering, Zheng Yue left.

Seeing Zheng Yue walk away, Yang Xin finally couldn’t hold back her thoughts and spoke.

“Why did she lie to us?” When she heard Zheng Yue say that she was going to study, Yang Xin subconsciously believed her. She didn’t expect to see Zheng Yue here. “She’s acting like we’re bad people.”

Regarding Zheng Yue’s concealment, Yang Xin really couldn’t understand why she would do this.

Leng Yan also frowned. She was a little concerned about Zheng Yue lying to them.

“I really thought that she went to the library to study…” Leng Yan said in frustration. Her voice was very soft, and only the three of them could hear her.

The more Yang Xin spoke, the more annoyed she became. She treated everyone sincerely, so she felt a little uncomfortable when she realized that Zheng Yue had lied to her.

Although there was no loss, the feeling of being deceived was really uncomfortable.

“We know her situation too. It’s not like we’ll look down on her.” Leng Yan spoke the truth, expressing that she felt uncomfortable with Zheng Yue’s avoidance.

Murong Qiao listened to Yang Xin and Leng Yan’s discussion about Zheng Yue and sat there without saying anything, waiting for the dishes to be served.

While they were chatting, the dishes they ordered were also served one after another. However, the person who served the dishes was another waiter, not Zheng Yue.

Everyone hurriedly turned their attention to the delicacies in front of them. Their goal here was to eat.

“I suddenly feel that this money was well spent.” Yang Xin touched her round stomach and sighed.

Murong Qiao nodded in agreement. The western food here was indeed not bad, especially the steak. The meat in her mouth seemed to be so tender that it was about to melt.

“I’m going to the toilet.” Leng Yan said to the two of them and stood up to look for the toilet.

“Wait for me!” When Yang Xin heard that they were going, she hurriedly followed.

It was a friends.h.i.+p tradition for girls to go to the toilet together, and they were no exception.

Murong Qiao did not have this need, so she sat in her seat and slowly tasted the dessert.

In the washroom, Yang Xin and Leng Yan were chatting about Zheng Yue.

“I keep feeling that Zheng Yue is not normal today.” Yang Xin didn’t forget to speak as she washed her hands.

Leng Yan stood at the side and nodded. Her thoughts were almost the same as Yang Xin’s.

“Perhaps she thinks that we’re taking advantage of her by inviting her to a gathering or something.” Leng Yan also sighed. “She’s working so hard to earn money. It’s understandable that she doesn’t want to spend her money on a gathering.”

They did not think much of it, but Zheng Yue, the person involved, cared a lot.

At the mention of Zheng Yue, Yang Xin recalled what happened in the morning and at noon today and felt uncomfortable.

Especially at night, when she thought that Zheng Yue was studying and saw her working, the moment she realized that she had been deceived, the feeling of discomfort reached its peak.

“Understanding is one thing, but Zheng Yue is going too far,” Yang Xin said, feeling disappointed by Zheng Yue’s actions. “Qiaoqiao even gave her so much tips just now.”

At the mention of Murong Qiao’s tip, Leng Yan also felt that it was a pity.

They could all tell that Murong Qiao’s tip was not a small sum. This sum of money was quite a lot for Zheng Yue.

The two of them made small talk, but little did they know that the contents of their conversation had fallen into Zheng Yue’s ears.

Zheng Yue bit her lip and stood in the washroom only a wall away from the two of them, hearing Yang Xin and Leng Yan’s discussion clearly.

The joy from the tip had long disappeared, replaced by humiliation.

She held the 500 yuan she had just received in her hand, so angry that her hands were trembling. After hearing Yang Xin and Leng Yan’s words, she immediately felt that this was Murong Qiao’s charity for her..
