Chapter 226: The group of four going to the canteen

"Sure. I don't mind if we get something from the canteen. Actually, let's eat in the canteen from now on."

'I should cut out the barbeque from my body too.' With how much barbeque they have been eating for the past few days, even Zhang Jian realizes he'll put weight on. He knows he'll need to stick to a diet regime to have a nice body to show off. 

Before the two of them walk to the canteen, Lu Chen calls out to Feng Meifeng, "Hey, class monitor. Do you want to have lunch with us?"

The moment Lu Chen said this, the class became silent.

HUUUUUH?! The class has the huh expression plastered on all of their faces. They couldn't believe Lu Chen would ask Feng Meifeng out like that. 

Everybody in the class knew about the close relationship between the two. But never did the students expect Lu Chen would ask her out so suddenly like that. 

Usually, it would be Feng Meifeng initiating the conversation by yelling at him. 

When Feng Meifeng heard that, she didn't know what to say either. This is a first for her as well. However, she rejects it, "I'm sorry. I think I'll just be a bother for you." 

She made her own lunch, and the canteen food isn't something she would be able to eat in a million years.

"It's my treat. I want to thank you for taking care of me so much." From how hardworking she was at teaching him at the hospital, he wanted to treat her as thanks. 

When Feng Meifeng heard that, she wanted to go as well now. But when she saw Zhang Jian going as well, "I feel like I would be a bother for the two of you." With how serious the two were talking before, she didn't want to be a third wheel.

Lu Chen looks at Zhang Jian, "You're fine with this too, aren't you?"

Zhang Jian has a big grin as he nods his head, "Don't worry about it. The more, the merrier!" 

With Zhang Jian's approval, Feng Meifeng nods her head as she follows him. As the three were about to leave the room,

"Brother Chen." A gentle voice came at the door. Ye Meixiu waits behind the door for Lu Chen.

"..."

"What's up, Meixiu?" Ye Meixiu walks up to Lu Chen and asks him, "What are you going to do about lunch, brother Chen?"

"!!!"

"We're going to have lunch at the canteen." Lu Chen didn't feel anything was wrong with the conversation, unlike the people around him. 

When Ye Meixiu heard that, her eyes sparkled. She asks, "Then, can I come with you guys?"

"...."

"Sure. I don't mind if you come with the three of us." "Three?" Ye Meixiu looks at him curiously as to why there was another person there. Other than Zhang Jian, there shouldn't be any other person Lu Chen's friends with.

"Yeah. My class monitor is coming with us. I'm going to be the one treating you guys to a meal." The more Lu Chen talks, the more worried the class gets.

'Class monitor?' Ye Meixiu looks over to Feng Meifeng. And the latter looks back as well. As the two stare at each other, the entire class couldn't help but move away from the two of them. The whole classroom felt they're on a roller coaster.

Nothing needed to be said about the strong whiff of gunpowder going through the room. Zhang Jian sweats as he couldn't believe how nonchalant Lu Chen is acting.

'Brother Chen, how could you not notice the intense stare-down they're having.'

It was like a stare-down between two tigers, ready to kill each other for their prey. That's what everybody thought in their minds. 

But contrary to that, Ye Meixiu's cautious expression changes to a smile, "Brother Chen, can I come with you guys then?" 

"!!!" The classroom was ready for a long scale war to occur. They thought even Lu Chen should know about the problems that will happen!

"Sure. I don't mind. Do you guys mind?" Lu Chen turns to Zhang Jian and Feng Meifeng. Feng Meifeng didn't mind about Ye Meixiu coming. From how Ye Meixiu was staring at her, she thought it was just an ordinary gaze.

On the other hand, Zhang Jian nods his head in reluctance. The look he got from Ye Meixiu was too scary for him to say no to it.
