After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 222 - 223 Proposal Ring (8)

Then, a peculiar sight appeared within the school: two female university students bringing an elderly lady to the university cafeteria for a meal.

The elderly lady, possibly because it was her first time visiting a university cafeteria, seemed very curious about everything.

Walking ahead of Lou Xi and Bai Lu, the elderly lady stopped in front of each food stall to take a look at the dishes.

Of course, it couldn’t compare to the Michelin three-star chefs of the Qin Family, you couldn’t expect much from the big pot meals served here.

So, the elderly lady wandered for a long time without finding anything particularly appetizing.

Bai Lu, following beside Lou Xi, muttered in a low voice, "This Qin Family’s elderly lady is quite troublesome."

If she were Lou Xi, she definitely couldn’t handle such an elder.

"Elders are like little children. When I first met her, I was also taken aback, but after spending some time, I found the elderly lady to be quite adorable," Lou Xi said with a smile. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Love is truly a great thing," Bai Lu sincerely marveled, thinking it must be Qin Mobai who gifted Lou Xi with unparalleled courage.

Ignoring Bai Lu’s teasing, Lou Xi followed the elderly lady’s footsteps.

It was then she noticed the elderly lady’s tray filled with several of Nan University’s unusual culinary creations.

Stir-fried celery with strawberries, mango chunks with meat, papaya with wood ear mushrooms?

Although Lou Xi had heard of the school’s strange food combinations before, she had never tried them, and today, she was brought by the elderly lady to the school cafeteria to witness it firsthand.

Ignoring the surprised expression on Lou Xi’s face, the elderly lady stood by the card payment area with her tray.

Since the school’s cafeteria only accepted the campus card and not cash, the elderly lady could only stand there.

Lou Xi snapped out of it, took out her campus card, and paid for the elderly lady’s meal.

The three of them returned to their seats with their trays, and the elderly lady finally asked, "Why does your campus card only have a little over a hundred yuan?"

According to Qin Mobai’s way of doing things, the elderly lady thought Lou Xi’s campus card should have at least a few thousand yuan.

"Hasn’t Mo Bai given you money?"

"He has, but I can’t always rely on Young Master Qin’s money. I’m also working and can support myself." Although that job was at Qin Mobai’s executive office helping out, and she wasn’t sure if everyone was just taking care of her as they hadn’t given her much heavy work.

Listening to Lou Xi’s words, the elderly lady’s expression looked thoughtful, but she ultimately said nothing.

"Grandma, do you like these mixed dishes?" Lou Xi looked at the dishes on the elderly lady’s tray, finding it hard to imagine what such a taste could be like.

The elderly lady pursed her lips, not answering Lou Xi.

Lou Xi was used to the elderly lady not answering her questions, so she just ate her own meal.

Suddenly, the elderly lady picked up a strawberry and placed it onto Lou Xi’s tray.

"You’ll know what it tastes like once you try it yourself," the elderly lady said with a stiff tone, though it was supposed to be words to show closeness to Lou Xi, her expression remained rather cold.

Indeed, she was sharp-tongued but soft-hearted.

Lou Xi tasted the strawberry, and it was simply... an enigmatic flavor.

But, since the elderly lady seemed to enjoy it, perhaps she’d make it for her at home too?

The lunch was eventually finished, but the elderly lady showed no intention of leaving. She sat in her seat and said to Lou Xi, "Lend me your campus card again."

"What else would you like to eat? I can go buy it for you."

"I have my own hands and feet."

"..." So, Lou Xi handed her campus card to the elderly lady.
