Chapter 152: Third Brother Eats In A Strange Way

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The Murong surname was rare to begin with. As Murong Qiao listened attentively to the cla.s.s, she couldn’t help but guess if Murong Chuan was one of her elder brothers.

After listening to the entire lesson, Murong Qiao looked at Murong Chuan, who had pushed open the door and left. She took out her phone and called Murong Chen with doubts in her heart.

Murong Chen quickly replied. One of the brothers she had never met was called Murong Chuan. He was the third eldest in the family and was also a professor.

After confirming her thoughts, a new question enveloped Murong Qiao’s mind.

Since the professor who was in cla.s.s just now was really her Third Brother, did he notice her during cla.s.s just now?

Murong Qiao was uneasy, especially after learning that Murong Chuan was her Third Brother.

There shouldn’t be anything wrong with her state in cla.s.s just now…

She was worried that her performance in cla.s.s just now was not good enough, afraid that she would leave a bad impression on Murong Chuan. However, Murong Qiao couldn’t but think if Murong Chuan knew that she was his Little Sister.

Did he recognize her? She wondered if he liked her.

Many doubts surrounded Murong Qiao’s heart. She didn’t even notice the pa.s.sage of time. In the blink of an eye, it was time for lunch.

For the sake of convenience and to save time, Murong Qiao simply went to the canteen to solve the lunch problem.

She walked into the canteen as usual and planned to find a seat. Unexpectedly, she saw Murong Chuan, whom she had just seen this morning.

Seeing Murong Chuan standing not far away, Murong Qiao suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Should she go forward to greet him?

Murong Qiao’s heart was pounding. She stared at Murong Chuan’s good-looking side profile in a daze and fell into a dilemma.

“Why aren’t you walking anymore?” Yang Xin was walking upstairs behind Murong Qiao when she saw Murong Qiao stop at the door, she was a little puzzled.

The footsteps approached. Before Murong Qiao could react, a voice sounded above her head.

“Is this the first time we’ve met?” Murong Chuan looked at Murong Qiao in front of him and greeted her with appropriate politeness. He even teased her a little, which very well diluted the tense atmosphere between him and Murong Qiao.

He knew that his Little Sister had gone to Hui University. During cla.s.s, his attention was actually on Murong Qiao. Unfortunately, the other party didn’t seem to recognize him at all. Murong Chuan originally felt that it was a pity, but he didn’t expect to meet her again in the canteen.

Murong Qiao suddenly looked up at Murong Chuan and widened her eyes in surprise. She didn’t expect to be discovered by Murong Chuan at all. Her beautiful eyes were as round as a kitten’s and she looked extremely cute.

“Of course.” Following her Third Brother’s question, Murong Qiao unknowingly relaxed.

“Do you want to have lunch together?” Murong Chuan invited, giving the two of them a chance to understand each other.

Murong Qiao nodded without thinking and followed beside Murong Chuan. At the same time, she gave Yang Xin and the others a look. The two sides immediately understood each other.

Yang Xin and the others left, leaving some s.p.a.ce for Murong Qiao.

Murong Chuan brought Murong Qiao up to the second floor and found a relatively quiet table to sit down. They ordered their favorite dishes.

“Eat.”

Murong Chuan was not the talkative type. After saying this, he even gave Murong Qiao, who was sitting opposite him, a perfect performance of not talking while eating.

Murong Qiao didn’t know what to say, and her mind was not on eating as she observed her Third Brother curiously.

From Murong Chuan’s elegant and calm movements, it could be seen that he was extremely cultured, and it was the same when he ate.

The dishes in the plate were picked with precision every time, each piece being square and almost the same size. He wouldn’t even mess up the arrangement of the food, carefully eating from one side to the other. The same attention to detail was applied when eating, as the rice in the bowl was divided into small portions with the chopsticks and then slowly savored. His movements were deliberate, methodical, and pleasing to the eye.

Looking at her Third Brother’s eating posture, Murong Qiao deeply felt that Murong Chuan must have an obsessive-compulsive disorder. Especially when she saw the other party eating in an orderly manner, it deepened her impression of her Third Brother.

However, it had to be said that just by looking at her Third Brother’s beautiful face, she could eat a few more bowls of rice.

After seeing her Third Brother’s eating style, Murong Qiao followed suit and shut up, not wanting to leave a bad impression on him.

The meal was accompanied by silence as the food was wiped out by the siblings.

“My apologies for meeting you in such a way.” Murong Chuan carefully wiped the stain from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and looked at Murong Qiao. “I’ve been busy with academics recently.”

Murong Qiao looked at him and met Murong Chuan’s gaze. She hurriedly shook her head to indicate that it was fine.

This time, the two of them officially met as siblings and got to know each other. Murong Qiao chatted with Murong Chuan nervously about their lives and got to know each other better.

“I’ll be in school for this entire period. If you have any trouble or difficulties, you can look for me.” Murong Chuan looked at her with more care.

“In addition, if you have any questions about your studies, you can come to me to ask me.” Murong Chuan explained in detail, and the meaning between the lines revealed his concern for Murong Qiao.

Murong Qiao nodded in agreement, but she also sensed that Murong Chuan treated her differently.

Murong Chuan looked at her with concern in his eyes and talked to her carefully. However, Murong Qiao could tell that there was no other emotion in the depths of his eyes.

To be precise, Murong Chuan only treated her as a responsibility. He would also take care of his Little Sister as an elder brother. These were the most basic things.

Realizing the difference between Murong Chuan, Murong Chen, and Xian Yu, Murong Qiao did not know if she was disappointed or sad. However, she quickly understood that it was not up to her to decide if her brothers liked her or not.

On the other side, Yang Xin and Leng Yan followed their original route to the first floor of the canteen and queued up, waiting to get their food.

However, they were surprised to see Zheng Yue appear in the position of the auntie.

“Zheng Yue, I didn’t expect you to be here today!” Yang Xin saw Zheng Yue and happily raised her hand to greet the other party. She extended the plate in front of her.

The canteen would give some students with difficult families a chance to work every month, and Zheng Yue was one of them.

However, contrary to Yang Xin’s enthusiastic att.i.tude, when Zheng Yue heard Yang Xin call her, she only smiled and nodded without saying anything.

A spoonful of food was placed on Yang Xin’s plate. Zheng Yue continued to serve the next person. Her expression looked a little cold as she looked elsewhere.

Yang Xin’s enthusiasm was completely extinguished by Zheng Yue’s reaction. Seeing that she didn’t intend to chat with her at all and clearly didn’t want to talk to them, she didn’t say anything and pulled Leng Yan away to eat.

However, when Yang Xin and Leng Yan arranged to go out for afternoon tea, they coincidentally b.u.mped into Zheng Yue.

Yang Xin and Leng Yan sat there and chatted excitedly when they saw Zheng Yue bring over the afternoon tea they had ordered.

When Zheng Yue brought it over, she realized that it was Yang Xin and Leng Yan. She was also stunned for a moment. She didn’t expect them to meet outside the school.

The three of them looked at each other. For a moment, no one spoke. The atmosphere was a little subtle..
