Chapter 32: with translation of chapter title

~7 min read 1,306 words

Sister-in-law, please have a meal.

Half an hour later, Liu Li sat at his workstation, dazed.

When Qian Hu passed by, seeing he wasn't going to the cafeteria to eat, he came over and asked: "Isn't there pineapple sweet and sour pork, your favorite, in the cafeteria today? Why aren't you eating? I'm telling you, if you don't eat on time, your body won't be able to take it. I know you're still young, but you still need to..."

Liu Li turned his head and stared blankly at Qian Hu, who was about to launch into a long speech, and for the first time interrupted him: "Captain Qian, you say the materialization of techniques is simple, but have you ever seen numerology materialized?"

Qian Hu was left speechless by his question.

After looking at him for two seconds, he then reached out and touched his forehead, asking, "Do you have a fever?"

Liu Li: "...... Captain Qian, I don't have a fever!"

Qian Hu lowered his hand, wearing the expression of an old man on the subway looking at his phone, and said, "Since you don't have a fever, what nonsense are you spouting here?"

Liu Li opened his mouth, but after hesitating a bit, he chose to swallow back the words 'Tushan Jiu can'.

Mainly, even if he did say it, not necessarily anyone would believe him.

Just like Qian Hu's attitude earlier made everything clear.

So let him doubt life on his own!

Nan Cheng University, abbreviated as Nan Da.

It is one of the top institutions in the Great Xia.

Tushan Jiu looked at the layer of Wenqu Star qi floating above, and instantly felt it really wasn't just hype.

If it weren't for her profession not requiring a diploma, she would definitely have tried to get into such a university.

Tushan Jiu isn't someone who never attended university; she simply took the entrance exam for a youth program at a university in Yun Shi and graduated at eighteen.

She doesn't work part-time or slave away, so naturally she doesn't need to work that hard.

Taking a deep breath, she stepped inside.

She came to find Xie Jingting and Xie Jingzhou, who are freshmen here.

Don't look at Xie Jingting being clueless, but the Xie family's genes are right there; anyway, he has no mutation.

Before coming, she didn't tell them either, because she knew they had classes in the morning and would finish in about fifteen minutes.

She planned to wait outside their classroom door for them to come out, then have them take her to the cafeteria.

I heard their Nan Da cafeteria offers good quality at low prices, with a serving of braised pork and small potatoes costing only seven yuan.

Of course, the most important thing is that everyone says it's especially delicious.

Nan Da is huge, huge; just the various buildings alone are many, and first-time visitors usually get lost.

But is Tushan Jiu an ordinary person?

All the way, with just a flick of her fingers, she arrived smoothly outside their classroom one minute before Xie Jingzhou and his brother finished class.

Xie Jingzhou and Xie Jingting study different majors.

Xie Jingzhou studies biomedical engineering, while Xie Jingting studies computer science and technology.

However, today's class is an open lecture; perhaps it's twin telepathy, but they both ended up selecting it together.

"Heavens! Quick, look, that girl outside is so pretty!"

"Where? Where? Let me look, let me look!"

"Holy cow, really! She looks like a little fairy, and she's wearing a new Chinese-style skirt outfit—this is too otherworldly!"

"She's not from our school, right? I didn't see her during military training."

"I don't recall her either; if the little fairy were from our school, with my eagle-eyed vision I'd surely have noticed—wait, she's looking toward the classroom, so she must be here to find someone?"

"Never mind who she's looking for, guys—class is about to end; in a moment I'll be the first to go up and ask for her contact, nobody better try to beat me to it, I want the little fairy to know me first!"

"New Chinese-style skirt outfit?"

"Little fairy?"

"Otherworldly?"

How come this description sounds so much like their sister-in-law Tushan Jiu?

Xie Jingzhou and Xie Jingting turned their heads to look out the window.

Hey, it really is Tushan Jiu!

How did she come to Nan Da?

Just as they were thinking that, the bell rang to signal the end of class.

Xie Jingzhou packed up his things, while Xie Jingting darted out directly.

"Sister-in-law!"

Xie Jingting's cry of 'sister-in-law' was practically shouted.

Instantly, those boys who had wanted to flirt with Tushan Jiu earlier all halted in their tracks.

Xie Jingting's reputation had already been exposed on the day freshmen reported, when he swaggered onto campus in that red Lamborghini.

As for Xie Jingzhou, needless to say—the brothers look eighty percent alike; everyone knows who's the clueless one.

Moreover, Xie Jingzhou is the top scorer in the college entrance exam, which makes him even more famous than Xie Jingting.

So that group of 'passionate' boys had their enthusiasm doused by a bucket of cold water from Xie Jingting's cry of 'sister-in-law'.

Xie Jingting gave them a cold stare.

The crowd came in a swarm and left in a swarm.

Tushan Jiu didn't notice this; when Xie Jingting called her, she walked over to him.

"I heard the food at your Nan Da is good; I happened to be passing by, didn't feel like going back to the old house to eat, so sister-in-law, let me treat you to a meal!"

"Hmm, very good, very Tushan Jiu style."

"Simple and clear: she just wants to eat at Nan Da, and incidentally bring those two along."

Xie Jingzhou, with a single-shoulder backpack, walked out of the classroom.

Hearing this, he patted his younger brother's shoulder, "It's already good that sister-in-law can come with us two; be content."

Xie Jingting looked at Tushan Jiu unwillingly.

Seeing this, Tushan Jiu gave him a slight smile, then nodded to show she agreed with Xie Jingzhou's words; he should feel fortunate.

Southern University has more than one cafeteria.

Tushan Jiu's longed-for braised pork with small potatoes is in the second cafeteria.

The two brothers of the Xie Family found her a spot, then had her sit here and wait while they went to get her meal.

Knowing her appetite, it was natural for the two of them to go together to order and pick up food.

But even so, the two of them walked back and forth three times.

The long tables were fully set.

Therefore, many people also cast strange glances.

Tushan Jiu didn't mind; once the Dao heart is established, it's not so easily broken.

However, don't let her big appetite fool you; she always eats quietly and properly.

Xie Jingzhou inserted a straw into her standard-sugar lemon water and placed it where she could easily reach it.

He was about to ask her if she had come to see them for something.

Jokes aside, given Tushan Jiu's easy-to-read personality, she definitely came to them for something; eating at Southern University was just incidental.

But before he could speak, a sarcastic voice sounded.

"Yo, what wind is this, how did you even blow the sister-in-law to Southern University?"

Tushan Jiu didn't even lift her head, completely ignored it, and continued to eat slowly.

Chen You nan glanced at the dishes on the table and clicked his tongue.

"No, Xie Jingzhou, Xie Jingting, you two are also not okay; how can you just have our sister-in-law eat at the cafeteria! They definitely have these things up on the mountain; why don't you take our sister-in-law to the third cafeteria to eat some Western food or something?"

Upon saying that, the people around started whispering.
