Chapter 107: Running Away Hand in Hand

"Zhang Daye, pfft..."

After hearing Qin Tian recount what happened, Xia Nuannuan couldn't stop laughing, as expected.

It wasn't until the bell for class rang that Xia Nuannuan finally managed to hold back her laughter, clutched her aching stomach, and turned her attention to the lesson.

Qin Tian was also in a very good mood, resting his cheek on one hand and continuing to flip through his book.

For him, having been beaten by society in his past life, such carefree campus time was very worth cherishing.

After the morning classes ended, Xia Nuannuan prepared to go home for lunch, saying she would bring food for Qin Tian later.

"No need, I'm going home to eat today too!"

Qin Tian stood up with a smile.

"Ah?"

Xia Nuannuan paused.

"My mom resigned from the clothing factory, so she's going home to take care of me until I finish the college entrance exam."

Qin Tian explained with a smile.

"I see!"

Xia Nuannuan nodded in realization and smiled: "That's great, let's walk out of the school together then!"

Although she said that, she felt a little disappointed inside.

During this period, bringing food for Qin Tian from home every noon had become a habit.

Every time she watched him wolf down the food she brought, Xia Nuannuan felt very happy and satisfied, thinking that when she had time, she must learn to cook well from her mother so she could make it for Qin Tian herself.

"Tian Ge, are you going home to eat?"

Zhang Peng, who walked over, happened to hear their conversation and asked with surprise.

"Mm!"

Qin Tian nodded: "During this time before the college entrance exam, I should be going home for lunch and dinner."

"Pfft!"

Xia Nuannuan couldn't help but laugh again when she saw Zhang Peng.

Qin Tian's expression changed slightly, and he signaled her with his eyes desperately.

"Xia Nuannuan, why are you laughing so happily?"

Zhang Peng didn't react and asked with curiosity.

"No, nothing."

Xia Nuannuan waved her hand in a panic.

"What the hell?"

Zhang Peng looked confused and looked at Qin Tian with a questioning gaze.

Qin Tian immediately avoided his gaze and decisively changed the subject: "We have to go home to eat, Zhang Daye, see you!"

Before he finished speaking, he grabbed Xia Nuannuan's wrist and walked toward the back door of the classroom as if fleeing.

"Ah? Mm!"

Zhang Peng nodded blankly, then suddenly realized what was happening, and jumped up and cursed angrily: "Damn, Qin Tian, I told you not to tell anyone."

Unfortunately, his reaction was too slow, and Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan had already left the classroom.

Hearing the roar from behind, the two looked at each other and ran away with tacit understanding.

"Hahaha..."

In the classroom, Zhang Peng and a group of students who hadn't left yet heard their happy laughter and looked at each other in confusion.

"Did they... just hold hands?"

A girl with sharp eyes said coldly.

The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and everyone's expressions became interesting.

"Sure enough, I knew they were definitely dating."

"Ah ah ah... can't they wait for another month? Do they have to stab us?"

"I saw it too, they held hands so naturally, it couldn't be the first time."

"Anyway, I'm used to it. How many times have we been shown off? I'm not envious, mm, not envious at all!"

"Speaking of which, what were they laughing at just now? They were laughing so happily."

"It was the same during English class this morning."

"I thought I heard Qin Tian shout 'Zhang Daye.' Zhang Peng, is this your new nickname?"

Zhang Peng's other best friend, Qian Sheng, seized the opportunity and asked loudly with deep meaning.

As soon as this was said, everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhang Peng.

Zhang Peng's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he walked out of the classroom quickly without saying a word.

"Zhang Daye, going to the canteen to eat? Wait for me!"

Qian Sheng shouted loudly and followed him with a trot.

"Cheapskate, shut up!"

Zhang Peng turned his head and glared at him.

"Hahaha... so it really is because of this. Zhang Daye, tell me about it, how did you get this nickname?"

"Shut up!"

"Haha... share it if it's an interesting thing between brothers!"

"Share your sister, I'm breaking up with you!"

Hearing this somewhat familiar dialogue, the students in the classroom didn't know who started it, but someone couldn't help but laugh, and then there was a roar of laughter.

At the school gate, Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan said goodbye with a smile and went home in opposite directions.

Not far behind them, a boy watched this scene, his somewhat immature face filled with jealousy and hatred, and his small eyes rolled around.

This person was the boy who had tried to flirt with Xia Nuannuan on the track field before, and had been lightly driven away by Qin Tian like he was bullying a child.

"Bastard, you don't take me seriously, do you? Just you wait!"

The boy muttered through gritted teeth and walked out of the school gate quickly.

He naturally couldn't forget the humiliation he had suffered last time.

These days, he had been looking for Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan in the school whenever he had time.

But because they were in different teaching buildings from the first-year students, and the third-year students basically didn't come out of the classroom to move around, he hadn't been able to find them.

He hadn't expected to run into them today, and they seemed to be day students too.

In that case, it would be easy to get back at them.

When Qin Tian returned home, several dishes were already laid out on the eight-immortal table in the main room, emitting an alluring fragrance.

His future mother-in-law's cooking might be better, but the food his mother made tasted better to him.

Due to her work at the clothing factory, Tang Xiuxia only cooked for him on rare holidays, apart from late-night snacks.

After he went to Jiangcheng for the college entrance exam in his past life, such opportunities were even fewer.

"Mom, I'm home!"

Qin Tian shouted toward the back room.

"Come help serve the dishes."

The voice of his mother came from the kitchen in the back room.

"Alright, coming!"

Qin Tian replied and walked quickly to the back room, entering the somewhat stuffy kitchen.

"Take that bowl of soup over, and the rice cooker, and get the bowls and chopsticks too. I can eat as soon as this fish is fried."

Tang Xiuxia stood in front of the stove frying a fish and turned her head to give instructions.

"Alright!"

Qin Tian nodded with a smile and picked up a large bowl of tomato and egg soup from the kitchen counter.

After sniffing the fragrance, he praised exaggeratedly: "So fragrant, Mom, why does it feel like your cooking has gotten better!"

"Stop flattering me, be careful of the heat!"

Tang Xiuxia reminded him with a smile.

"No, no, it's the truth."

Qin Tian grinned and left the kitchen with the soup.

By the time Tang Xiuxia placed the last plate of braised fish on the table, Qin Tian had already set everything up and served two bowls of rice.

His mother didn't have a big appetite and only served half a bowl.

His own was a full bowl, and he had pressed it down several times with a rice scoop.

After the mother and son sat down, looking at the four dishes and one soup on the table, smiles hung on their faces.

"Mom, you've worked hard, you have a piece first."

Qin Tian first picked up a large piece of fish and put it in his mother's bowl.

Tang Xiuxia paused, and then a gratified smile bloomed on her face.

"Eat quickly, sleep for a while at home after you're full, then go to school."

"Alright!" ===== CHAPTER 108 =====
