Chapter 759: Chapter 759: Creating Opportunities to Spend Time Together
Jian Dan and Xiaoting arrived at the restaurant just as Ouyang Jing had finished setting up lunch for the two of them.
“Ouyang Jing, you’re really too kind!”
Jian Dan, who had missed breakfast, was now so hungry that his stomach was clinging to his back.
“Our class is close to the cafeteria, so I came early and got it for you!”
“Reliable, reliable!” Jian Dan had already started eating.
Xiaoting was about to start eating too, but then she saw Zhang Yang not far away, looking for a place with his tray.
“Mr. Zhang, come have lunch with us!” Xiaoting waved at Zhang Yang.
Following the sound, Zhang Yang looked over and saw Jian Dan eating with a smile that involuntarily formed at the corner of his mouth.
He walked over and sat opposite Jian Dan….
“Mr. Zhang, your suggestion was really great. Jian was so happy when he heard the news!” Xiaoting spoke with a bit of teasing.
“Really?” Zhang Yang’s smile widened at Xiaoting’s words. “I just wanted everyone to relax a little. Sometimes too much tension can backfire.”
“Yeah, yeah! I even heard that before the college entrance examination, some students jumped off buildings because of too much pressure!” Xiaoting chimed in.
“What proposal are you guys talking about?” Ouyang Jing asked from the side.
“Oh! Our class is planning to go camping by the sea this weekend!”
“Camping? Can I come too?” Ouyang Jing asked with some anticipation.
“I can’t decide that, you’ll have to ask Mr. Zhang!”
“Mr. Zhang, can I come along too?” Ouyang Jing didn’t want to miss the chance to spend time with his friends.
He had already forgotten how long it had been since he went on an outing with friends.
Seeing Zhang Yang still hesitating, Ouyang Jing turned his target to Jian Dan. “Jian, don’t just focus on eating, right? Can you plead with Mr. Zhang for me?”
Looking up at Ouyang Jing’s pitiful face, Jian Dan’s heart softened.
“Mr. Zhang, bringing one more person shouldn’t be a problem, right? Plus, he’s a guy, he can help us pitch tents, do some work!”
“Yes! Yes! I’m really strong.” He even showed off the little muscle on his arm.
“Okay! Then you’ll come with us!” Zhang Yang finally relented.
Ouyang Jing, being the straightforward guy he was, naturally didn’t catch on, but Xiaoting by his side noticed; obviously, Zhang Yang had given in for Jian Dan’s sake!
Xiaoting herself felt that her emotional intelligence had been soaring recently!
(Maybe when you know the truth one day, you won’t think so anymore!)
“That’s great, thank you, Mr. Zhang!”
“No problem!
By the way, I need to prepare some items and ingredients for the day after tomorrow this afternoon. Would you guys be willing to help me? It might be a bit difficult for me alone!”
“But we have classes this afternoon…” Ouyang Jing was about to speak.
“Of course it’s no problem. Jian Dan and I can both come!” Xiaoting promptly interrupted.
Such a good opportunity couldn’t be missed.
Xiaoting seemed a bit too active today, not quite fitting her usual image, right? There must be a situation! Definitely a situation!
“Since Jian and Xiaoting are going, then I’ll go too!” Ouyang Jing followed suit.
“Great! Then I’ll wait for you at the school gate during the self-study class this afternoon!”
“Alright! Mr. Zhang.”
Jian Dan glanced at the time…
Why hasn’t uncle come to lunch today?
Could something have held him up?
“Jian, what are you daydreaming about? Let’s go!”
“Oh! You guys go ahead back! I need to go to the restroom!”
“What’s up with you? Changing from before the meal to after now?” Xiaoting teased.
“As I wish!”
Jian Dan raised his eyebrows and walked in another direction…
Xiaoting and the others also left the cafeteria and returned to the classroom.
After seeing them leave, Jian Dan went back to the cafeteria and got another serving of food.
While getting the food, he sent a text to uncle, ‘Uncle, why didn’t you have lunch? Where are you now?’
At noon, Chu Liyuan received a call for some business that needed his attention, so he was delayed.
Having just finished a video conference, he received Jian Jian’s text message and a big smile curved his lips.
Chu Liyuan sent a photo of his location to Jian Jian, ‘Just finished dealing with company matters!’
When Jian Dan received the photo sent by uncle, he knew immediately where he was.
It took him less than five minutes to reach uncle’s location.
“Uncle-”
“Jian Jian-” The moment Chu Liyuan saw Jian Dan, he pulled her into his embrace.
“I bought uncle lunch, you should eat some, uncle!” Jian Dan offered the lunch box to Chu Liyuan.
“My hands are quite busy now, you feed me!”
“I’ll sit next to you, then uncle’s hands won’t be busy!” Jian Dan was about to get up.
But Chu Liyuan didn’t give Jian Dan a chance to leave, holding her even tighter. “No, I want Jian Jian to feed me!
My stomach is starving, doesn’t Jian Jian care?”
“Uncle, how come I never noticed before that you have such a cheeky side?”
Although Jian Dan complained, she still opened the lunch box and moved a piece of meat to Chu Liyuan’s mouth..
