"This taste..."

"This recipe..."

Ling Mengxue's lips twitched involuntarily, unsure of what to say.

Fold the letters back up and put them away, putting both letters together.

After a moment of silence, in those brief three minutes, she was convinced that she had definitely been targeted by some chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) sufferer!

I had a simple breakfast of milk and bread, grabbed my schoolbag and trash bag, and was ready to leave.

But recalling the letter from earlier...

She really is...

That's hard to understand...

With the exam approaching, the teacher mostly let everyone review on their own during the morning classes, occasionally going over the key and difficult points of the exam. A class would pass by quickly.

After school in the afternoon, Ling Mengxue was packing her things.

She thought today would end like any other day, but to her dismay, an unexpected person appeared—

As soon as I stepped out of the classroom, a crowd had gathered at the stairwell entrance.

If it weren't already after school, so many people blocking the stairs would be a serious problem if the Dean of Studies found out; at the very least, they'd have to clean the playground for a week.

Wow, senior, are you "that" senior? I've seen you before! I didn't expect you to be even more handsome in person than in the photos!

"Hey, that senior doesn't like taking pictures. Apart from group photos, he's never had any photos taken with him, okay?"

"Taking photos secretly! Is taking photos secretly not allowed??"

"..."

Along the corridor, several girls were chatting and laughing, discussing something in hushed tones.

"Oh..."

After a brief silence, the "boy" walked through the crowd, his wisps of hair fluttering in the wind.

His expression was calm, with a faint smile playing on his lips. His hands were in his pockets, perfectly embodying the meaning of "temperament" and "elegance"!

"Ling Feng!"

A voice came from outside the classroom, and Ling Mengxue saw two familiar figures.

Zhao Ping had just heard the commotion and ran back when he saw what was happening. He was stunned. "Holy crap, is that really you? Don't you have exams? What's up, coming back to visit your alma mater?"

"Ping-ge, wait a minute, it's not certain yet!" Zhao Lei followed closely behind, and when he saw the people next to Zhao Ping and Ling Mengxue standing outside the classroom not far away, his mind went blank again. "Damn! There are actors!"

"..."

"Take an exam?"

Ling Feng looked puzzled for a moment, then realized what he meant and nodded with a smile, "Oh right, our school's final exams were earlier, so summer vacation has already started."

"I see." Zhao Ping didn't doubt it, and patted him on the shoulder with a sheepish smile. "Alright, then let's do as we agreed before. I'll let you know when Little Zhao and Lin Xiu arrive in Linzhuo. We have a big plan to make! Want to go out for a meal together?"

"Hehe... no need, I'm here to see my sister."

"Then let's do it together!"

Zhao Ping's eyes lit up. "It's been so long since I've had a meal with Mengxue. You, as her older brother, won't mind, will you?"

Ling Feng's expression was somewhat strange, with a forced smile still on his face.

Zhao Lei stood behind, watching, sensing an indescribably strange atmosphere, and felt extremely anxious.

Brother Feng, is this really you??

"Brother, let's go together."

Ling Mengxue walked over, winked at Mo Chuyun almost imperceptibly, and continued, "It's rare for everyone to get together, so let's go have a meal together~"

Mo Chuyun was taken aback, her face flushed slightly, she coughed lightly, and was about to speak.

Suddenly, Zhao Ping pulled him close, putting his arm around his shoulder. "Haha, what a coincidence, Mengxue! Your brother has already agreed. Hehe, perfect timing! I know a great mala tang place near the school, delicious and affordable. What do you think, Mengxue? My treat!"

"Uh... kid, you better watch out..."

Mo Chuyun's lips twitched, on the verge of exploding, but then she noticed someone's gaze and instantly lost her temper, forcing a forced laugh, "Haha, Zhao Ping is right, let's go out for dinner together."

"Um..." "Ling Feng, can I join you guys? I can pay for it myself..." Another sweet voice came from behind.

Everyone turned around and saw Qiu Yun'er standing there prettily. She blushed awkwardly, afraid that someone would notice something, and quickly turned her head away, covering her mouth and coughing lightly, "It's just that I'm going to eat with you guys."

"Welcome."

"Welcome."

"Welcome."

Zhao Ping: "Stop talking, it's my treat!"

"..."

In the evening, pedestrians came and went on the street.

The five of them went to a spicy hot pot stall near the school for a late-night snack.

After leaving the school area, turn left and right, and you'll find a small blue tent set up at the entrance of an inconspicuous alley, with a handcart underneath containing a hot pot and a small liquefied gas cylinder.

In this sparsely populated alley, the dim lighting, fresh ingredients, and fragrant food create a cozy corner in the cold city.

While still on the road, Zhao Lei secretly asked Ling Mengxue for information about the current "Ling Feng". He was relieved to learn that he was a specially hired "actor".

Fortunately, his intuition was right. If he couldn't even tell which one was the eldest brother, then he would be truly useless.

At the same time, Ling Mengxue also found an opportunity to ask Mo Chuyun some questions.

For example, why did she suddenly appear at school without any prior notice? What if she got caught?

What if your public image collapses?

Mo Chuyun simply smiled, reassuring Ling Mengxue not to worry, and also brought her some breaking news. "I have a gift for you, and I'll probably be coming to see you soon~"

What kind of gifts will come knocking on your door?

Ling Mengxue was puzzled. She guessed it might be related to those childish letters, but she didn't ask. She just muttered to herself.

Anyway, you all have to make it so mysterious, so ceremonial, so grand, sometimes even with hidden mechanisms and secrets, so I can only be a lazy bum and do nothing.

The stall owner was a sprightly man in his fifties who spoke with a strong voice.

The old man was skillfully arranging his vegetables and fresh produce while attending to his customers when he looked up and immediately grinned. "Hey! Isn't this young man Ping? You're here again. Come on, come on up."

"Sir, just do it the same way as before, the usual arrangement is fine with me."

"Well done, kid. You've really made something of yourself this time, bringing so many friends. You're quite popular."

"Hehe, not bad, that's about all the charm I have." Zhao Ping chuckled, took his seat first, and showed no modesty whatsoever.

"Alright." The old man busied himself with making arrangements, then looked at Ling Mengxue and Qiu Yun'er: "Gentlemen, what would you like to eat?"

"Oh..."

Mo Chuyun's lips curled up slightly, and she subconsciously licked them. Finally, it was time for lunch.

Her deep, bright eyes scanned the menu, and she quickly finished thinking, "One skewer of fish balls, one skewer of ham sausage, one skewer of beef balls, one skewer of quail eggs, one skewer of luncheon meat, one skewer of chicken strips, one skewer of shiitake mushrooms, one skewer of enoki mushrooms, one skewer of potatoes, one skewer of cabbage, one skewer of lotus root, extra spicy, thank you."

"..."

Good heavens, Ling Mengxue was shocked. You really have no manners!

Ping-ge, how's your wallet?

If you really can't take it anymore, come to me. I can help you out. A real man doesn't have to push himself to the limit!

Since that's the case, then I'll respectfully accept your offer!

"Grandpa, I'll just change the 'extremely spicy' to 'mildly spicy', just like 'him'."

Soon, Zhao Lei also made his choice. "Grandpa, I'll do the same as her."

Qiu Yun'er blushed slightly, feeling embarrassed. "Grandpa, me too..."

Zhao Ping: "??"

Zhao Ping was shocked. "Damn it, you guys really don't value my money at all!"

[Ding! Your Yu'e Bao has received 648 yuan. Please check your account.]

[Ling Feng: Birthday present, the latest skin, here I am. (emoji)(smile)(smile)]

Upon hearing the phone ring, Zhao Ping looked down and couldn't help but cast a grateful glance at "Ling Feng".

"It has to be you again, Brother Feng!"

"Brother, I'll remember you for the rest of my life!"

"By the way, Ling Feng, Zhao Lei and I found a great place. We'll take you there sometime; it'll definitely be worth it!" Zhao Ping smiled confidently.

Mo Chuyun remained silent, focusing intently on slurping her potato.

Qiu Yun'er was very interested, staring at the steaming hot pot, waiting devoutly for the beef balls to be ready, listening attentively.

A moment of silence fell. Ling Mengxue finished her luncheon meat and started eating the mushrooms. "Idiot brother, someone's asking you a question."

"Um??"

Mo Chuyun looked up alertly, glanced at Zhao Ping, and then nodded somewhat casually, "Oh, we'll see later. Let's eat!"

After saying that, Mo Chuyun's eyes lit up, and she continued to eat the fragrant spicy hot pot. "This chicken strip smells so good, sir, another serving, please!"

"Alright!" Uncle Ge chuckled happily as he cooked the meat in the hot pot.

"..."

Ling Mengxue: You've completely disgraced me!

Zhao Ping felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it, so he didn't ask any further questions.

But is that right?

Eat vegetables! Eat vegetables!!

As Zhao Lei ate his food, he admired Ling Mengxue's actions. This "actress" looked extraordinary; she was probably a Magical Girls in disguise, given her powerful aura!

"By the way, Ling Feng, have you heard of 'Awakeners'? The ones I told you about last time. I've recently made a new discovery about them."

Zhao Ping suddenly became excited, Dimensional Secret Realm and other worlds? I heard that some top players returned and not only became physically stronger, but also gained superpowers. It's all over the internet, I'm so envious!"

Mo Chuyun: "..."

"Hey, what kind of look is that? Trust me, bro, it might not be as amazing as magic, but the spectacle is still top-notch. It's a true story, not just hearsay! Zhao Lei, don't you agree?"

"Yes, yes, yes," Zhao Lei quickly chimed in.

Zhao Ping: "That's right, but compared to Master Zi Han, I think she's still a little bit lacking."

Mo Chuyun: "..."
