Protagonist:

Lu Feng

"Why would I lie to you?" Qin Ye's face showed a hint of unnaturalness for a moment, but he quickly covered it up: "That young man said there were too many buyers and he couldn't keep up, so one person can only buy one portion!"

"Really?" Xu Shao Ying's eyes narrowed slightly; the panic that had flashed across Qin Ye's face just now had not escaped his eyes.

Seeing his doubtful expression, Qin Ye pointed at Little Li standing guard at the door and said: "Don't believe me? Ask Little Li; when the Boss said that yesterday, he was there too!"

Little Li at the door, hearing Qin Ye call his name, hurriedly ran over: "Qin Ye, did you call me?"

"Little Li, tell them, did that young man say yesterday that if too many people go, there's a limited purchase?" Qin Ye said while making frantic eye signals at Little Li.

"Yeah!" Little Li nodded.

He didn't notice Qin Ye's expression; yesterday he remembered Lu Feng had indeed said that.

"See, I didn't lie to you, right!" Qin Ye immediately said proudly to his three old comrades.

Unexpectedly, Little Li continued in a rush: "But Qin Ye, didn't the Boss say fried noodles will be limited purchase tomorrow? Otherwise you couldn't have packed three portions back yesterday..."

Qin Ye's expression froze, and he immediately glared at Little Li viciously.

Seeing Qin Ye's lion-like gaze, Little Li was too scared to speak, lowered his head, and ran out the door.

The living room fell silent for a second.

The three old men simultaneously focused their gazes on Qin Ye, and the atmosphere in the room became tense.

"You old brat!" Liu Zhen Guo slammed the table and stood up, pointing at Qin Ye angrily and shouting: "You clearly bought three portions, but only gave us one portion to share among the three of us, right!"

"Old Qin..." Xu Shao Ying sighed and shook his head, looking at Qin Ye with disappointment: "Do you remember when you were hospitalized last time, I gave you the wild ginseng I had treasured for over ten years? Now you won't even share one portion of fried noodles with me... sigh!"

"Old Qin, I've always respected you." Wei Jianhua clutched his chest, his eyes red, saying: "We've known each other for over forty years; I've always treated you as an elder brother. Now as a younger brother, I just want to eat one more bite of your fried noodles, and you won't even agree... my heart... feels so cold!"

Qin Ye silently rolled his eyes in his heart.

He knew these three old buddies weren't really angry; they were just asking him for fried noodles!

If he had really bought thirty portions yesterday, treating these few old friends to their fill wouldn't be a problem.

But his granddaughter only allowed him to buy three portions.

He thought he'd just take one portion out for the three old buddies to taste, and keep two portions for himself to eat slowly.

Now it seemed those two portions probably couldn't be kept.

Qin Ye sighed helplessly; knowing these old friends' tempers, if they couldn't eat fried noodles today, they might cling to his house for several days.

Forget it, forget it; it's just two portions of fried noodles.

Waa waa waa... my fried noodles!

Qin Ye stood up, called in the panicked Little Li, ordered him to send the two portions of fried noodles hidden in the refrigerator to the kitchen to be heated, and watched him leave with a heartbroken expression.

Seeing this scene, the three old men in the living room immediately showed smiles on their faces, just like changing faces.

These three old fogies were definitely faking it!

Qin Ye looked at their triumphant smiling faces and thought resentfully in his heart.

Liu Zhen Guo and the other two naturally wouldn't eat for free here.

"I have a few bottles of Moutai treasured for over ten years at home, brothers, wait for me; I'll go get them, and we'll have a good drink today!"

Liu Zhen Guo left with an excited expression and light steps.

"The roasted chicken my son brought back last time tasted good; I have two ducks at home; I'll go get them to serve as drinking snacks!" Wei Jianhua also left excitedly.

"Old Qin, haven't you always liked my pot of orchids that I've raised for over ten years? I'll have someone move them over to you later; from now on, just keep them at your place!" Xu Shao Ying walked over, smiling and patted Qin Ye's shoulder, then hurriedly left Qin Ye's home.

After the three old men left, Qin Ye sat alone in the living room, still heartbroken over the fried noodles.

No, I need to tell the kitchen side!

Two portions can't be hidden; but secretly hiding one bite should be okay, right?

Qin Ye immediately stood up and walked toward the kitchen.

The boys' dormitory at nine in the evening.

At this time, many students had finished washing up and were lying on their beds playing with their mobile phones.

One of the dormitories was somewhat different.

The main light in the dormitory was off, with only a dim desk lamp on the table; three boys sat around the dormitory table, all with very serious expressions.

"Second Brother, Third Brother, tonight we're pulling an all-nighter at the internet cafe; you must follow my arrangements." Sun Haoran supported himself with both hands on the table and said seriously to the other two.

Chen Deming and Zhao Yuxuan nodded, their expressions very serious.

"Third Brother, tell us about the data you investigated first." Sun Haoran looked at Zhao Yuxuan.

Zhao Yuxuan stood up, took out a small notebook from under his pillow, flipped to a page, which was densely filled with many records.

"According to my investigation of internet cafes near Food Street, Benlei Internet Cafe opposite Feiyu Internet Cafe has a promotion this month: recharge one hundred and get four buckets of instant noodles, the best value."

After listening, Sun Haoran touched his chin and fell into thought, muttering to himself: "That way we save money on instant noodles; not bad."

"I have a supplement." Chen Deming raised his hand to speak: "A new Mengyu Internet Cafe opened on the west side of Garden Road, very close to Food Street; recharge one hundred and get fifty."

"Wow!" Sun Haoran and Zhao Yuxuan's eyes lit up.

Obviously, compared to instant noodles, directly giving internet fees seemed more substantial.

"Okay, tonight's target is Mengyu Internet Cafe; who agrees, who opposes?" Sun Haoyu looked at the two and asked.

Chen Deming and Zhao Yuxuan nodded simultaneously: "Agree!"

Sun Haoyu smiled satisfactorily, then arranged tasks in an orderly manner: "Okay, later Second Brother, you go to Mengyu first and open three machines; try to choose private rooms closest to the toilet!"

"Leave it to me!" Chen Deming patted his chest and promised.

Sun Haoran then looked at Zhao Yuxuan: "Third Brother, you go to the small supermarket outside the school to buy supplies: one bottle of Cola per person, two bottles of Red Bull, one pack of Liqun Cigarettes Cigarettes Cigarettes, one bucket of Instant Noodles—I choose Red Braised Beef flavor."

"I want Old Jar Pickled Vegetable flavor." Chen Deming immediately said.

Zhao Yuxuan nodded and quickly recorded it in his notebook.

"That supermarket gives free Tissues for purchases over fifty; not many people know this." Sun Haoran placed his hand on Zhao Yuxuan's shoulder and emphasized with a grave tone: "When checking out, you must remember to ask the Boss for them, otherwise she won't give them, you must remember!"

"Eldest Brother, rest assured! I guarantee the Mission will be completed!"

Zhao Yuxuan answered with a determined face, and after recording it in his notebook, he added three large exclamation marks.

"As the Eldest Brother of the dormitory, my Mission is naturally the most arduous." Sun Haoyu turned his back to the two and said in a low tone: "Three in the morning, target Lu Family Restaurant on Food Street, three portions of Fried Noodles for Takeaway!"

"Eldest Brother!" Zhao Yuxuan suddenly stood up and looked at Sun Haoran with a worried face: "The Fried Noodles at that Shop have spread throughout the Internet Cafes near Food Street; there will definitely be many people going to buy Fried Noodles tonight!"

"I know." Sun Haoran's gaze was firm: "But rest assured, even if it's difficult, I will buy the Fried Noodles back for you!"

"Thank you, Eldest Brother!" Chen Deming and Zhao Yuxuan said loudly with moved faces.

"Are you three filming a movie?" A Roommate's head popped out from the upper bunk near the Balcony in the dormitory, looking at the three with a speechless face: "It's just staying up all night online, acting as if you're carrying out some secret Mission……"

"Go to sleep!"

Sun Haoran said to that Roommate in an annoyed tone, then turned on the dormitory's main light and looked at Chen Deming and the others.

"Are your respective Missions all clear? Now, set out!"
