Chapter 2280: Really Unappreciative of the Mood

"Alright, stop laughing!"

Li Moning tugged at Ling Xiaoxiao's skirt, telling her to stop while she was ahead.

Ling Xiaoxiao wanted to stop too.

But...

When she looked up at the sculpted bird, she immediately lost her composure.

Seriously, what genius thought of putting a sculpture in a tree?

And there was a "genius" like Li Moning who could mistake it for a real one...

Truly a pair of Crouching Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix!

After finishing her call, Jiang Motian saw Ling Xiaoxiao holding back laughter until her face was red.

Li Moning's face was red too.

But the expression on her face was very awkward.

As for Qingkong, he was smiling very kindly.

Jiang Motian was confused and asked, "What is this..."

"I'm so hungry, sister, let's hurry to the restaurant!"

Li Moning didn't want another person mocking her, so she grabbed Jiang Motian and walked ahead.

But after only a few steps, Jiang Motian said, "Momo."

"Don't ask!"

"But..."

"And don't talk!"

Jiang Motian closed her lips.

But in the end, she really couldn't help it and said one thing: "We're walking the wrong way!"

Li Moning stopped abruptly.

There happened to be a map nearby, and after Li Moning studied it, she discovered...

They really were walking the wrong way!

Ling Xiaoxiao and Qingkong, not far behind, had not followed them.

Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't even speak anymore; she just held her stomach and laughed.

She was laughing so hard tears came out.

Jiang Motian didn't understand and muttered, "Why is Xiaoxiao so happy?"

"Because I made a fool of myself!"

Li Moning sighed deeply.

Then she hung her head and walked back.

She didn't look at Ling Xiaoxiao, nor did she look at Qingkong.

She just pretended she was a puff of air.

Arriving at the restaurant, Li Moning couldn't pretend to be air anymore.

She was startled by the crowd of people.

There were... just too many people.

You couldn't see a single empty table in the restaurant.

Just as the few of them walked into the restaurant, a person who looked like a manager walked over and said to them with a smile, "Everyone, please follow me."

Li Moning asked the question in her heart: "Um, there are so many people here, can you squeeze out a spot?"

"You are honored guests, so you don't need to squeeze in here; you can dine upstairs."

Upstairs?

Ling Xiaoxiao had been here before, and she had never heard that this restaurant had dining upstairs.

Because she had never heard of it, Ling Xiaoxiao was especially curious.

Once she went up to the second floor, she saw a tightly closed door.

The manager slowly pushed the door open.

Then a Main Hall that could accommodate one thousand people appeared before them.

This Main Hall only hosted large-scale events and was not open to the public on ordinary days.

Now the door was opened specifically to host the four of them.

But this place was too vast; standing there, the four of them were like ants.

Ling Xiaoxiao looked around, couldn't help but swallow, and asked, "Are we really going to eat here?"

After Ling Xiaoxiao finished speaking, there was actually an echo in the room.

Ling Xiaoxiao immediately closed her lips, feeling even more uncomfortable inside.

Jiang Motian, however, looked as usual.

She pointed not far away and said, "We can go eat on the balcony."

"The balcony? Won't that be too small?"

"We'll know once we go over and look."

The balcony here was different from what Ling Xiaoxiao had imagined; not only was it large, but the view was exceptionally good.

Standing here, one could see the scenery of the entire amusement park.

Pushing open the window, a breeze happened to blow through.

It made one feel refreshed.

Looking further into the distance, one could actually see parade floats moving this way.

If one could eat while watching the parade, without being exposed to the sun or crowded...

That would be too carefree!

Ling Xiaoxiao shook her head and sighed: "Sister Tiantian has such great taste, this place is simply perfect!"

Seeing that everyone seemed very satisfied, Jiang Motian smiled and said: "I said I would take you all out to relax, so I definitely had to arrange things well."

After saying this, Jiang Motian called over a waiter and asked them to move the tables and chairs over.

At the same time, she ordered a few more set meals.

Li Moning had already gradually forgotten the awkwardness from just a moment ago.

She stood in front of the railing to look at the scenery for a while, then turned to sit down.

As a result, Ling Xiaoxiao grabbed Li Moning and made her sit beside Qingkong.

Jiang Motian saw this action but said nothing.

However, Qingkong had something to say: "You lot, that wasn't very considerate just now."

Li Moning looked puzzled: "Huh? What do you mean by that?"

"You all hid far away just now, leaving only me to make awkward small talk with Liu Sui. I'm not even close with her, how could I have so much to say!"

Ling Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows slightly: "But, you two looked like you were chatting quite well."

"Hey, how was that well? Besides, that doesn't count as chatting; it was clearly her asking and me answering. I don't know where she found so many questions to ask."

Qingkong couldn't help but complain.

And his complaint put Li Moning in a very good mood; she pursed her lips and chuckled softly.

Seeing how happy she was, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't help but secretly sigh: This woman is really easy to satisfy.

Now was a good time to continue probing Qingkong's thoughts on Liu Sui.

But just looking at Li Moning, one could tell she definitely had no intention of prying.

So this task could only be handled by Ling Xiaoxiao: "Don't you think Teacher Liu Sui is very charming?"

"It's alright, I guess."

"She is very popular with the students."

"Whether she is popular or not has nothing to do with me."

"Hey, you really are quite oblivious to romance."

"There are many kinds of romance in this world; if I had to figure out every single one, I'd be worked to death."

Qingkong spoke the honest truth.

And the more he spoke, the deeper the smile on Li Moning's face became.

She couldn't even hide it.

Until...

Li Moning looked up and discovered that Jiang Motian was looking at her with a scrutinizing gaze.

This made Li Moning feel a panic in her heart.

She immediately put away the smile on her face, averted her gaze, and said: "After all, she is a teacher, let's not talk about other people's private affairs."

"Fine, fine, let's eat."

Ling Xiaoxiao was also hungry and began to tuck in.

The delicious food made her eat with great enjoyment.

But Li Moning ate absent-mindedly.

She still felt a bit uneasy.

She snuck a glance at Jiang Motian.

She discovered that Jiang Motian was no longer staring at her, but was tasting the food with a relaxed posture.

Seeing her like this made Li Moning feel that the glance from just before might have just been a coincidence.

But...

Was it really just a coincidence?

Li Moning lowered her eyes and ate her food mechanically.

Once everyone had eaten their fill, they went back downstairs to play.

It wasn't until before dark that the group finished their wonderful and fulfilling day.

After leaving the amusement park, Ling Xiaoxiao's gaze circled between Li Moning and Qingkong.

Afterwards, she smiled and said: "Momo worked hard today, you need to go back and rest early."

"Mm."

"But Sister, can I trouble you with something?"

Jiang Motian looked at Ling Xiaoxiao: "Go ahead."

"I want to go to the Art Studio with you to borrow an art book to take back and copy; can we go to the Art Studio and have Qingkong take Momo home first?"

It was obvious that Ling Xiaoxiao, this assistant, was once again creating an opportunity for Li Moning.

Her intentions were good.

But she was still young, a bit unable to keep her composure, and the excuse she found was also quite far-fetched.

Jiang Motian smiled and refused: "I don't have any art books in the Art Studio at the moment, but I do have some at home. How about this, tomorrow have Momo bring them to school to give to you."

"Oh, I see..."

Li Beijue's expression sank in an instant, and a storm seemed to be brewing within his deep, dark eyes.
