Chapter 544 - 9.14 Déjà vu
"C–Classmate Lu?" Li Zhu’s voice snapped Lu Yizhou out of his thoughts. "Are you okay? Your face looks kinda weird there for a second..."
Li Zhu tried to act casual albeit his heart was thumping rapidly. Rather than weird, it was sufficient to say that Lu Yizhou’s expression was plainly terrifying! Classmate Lu’s eyes were so cold and hostile it sent a thread of unease into Li Zhu’s heart. However, this was the person Professor Zhao had saved. Even if he had some apprehension, Li Zhu could not just say it out loud...
[666: Host, not good! Look at him! He’s suspicious of you aaaah!!!]
[I know.] Lu Yizhou had never expected that Li Zhu would pay such close attention to him. Was this the protagonist’s halo?
He deliberately pinched his brows and showed an uncomfortable look.
Li Zhu guessed tentatively, "... Headache?"
Lu Yizhou went along with it and nodded. When the others noticed their conversation, they kindly told Lu Yizhou to sleep for a while. Again, Lu Yizhou seamlessly played along and nodded. He leaned against the wall and closed his eyes, unaware that Zhao Bolin was opening one eye to peek at him before closing it again...
Time passed by and lunch time crept in. Lu Yizhou finally took notice of the so-called ’food reserve’. Zhao Bolin beckoned for three students to follow him into his private laboratory before coming out with a bunch of soft packaged bread. The students ate them ravenously. This was the second day they had been trapped on the fifth floor and they relied only on Professor Zhao’s bread to pad their stomach.
At first, male students with larger builds received two pieces per person but now... they only received one and even two female students had to share one piece of bread.
