Chapter 44: Running into idiots
Running out of topics to talk about, Cheng Yu simply sat next to the lost in thought Li Lanni, trying to make her presence as scarce as possible.
She couldn’t explain it, but the present Li Lanni was quite different from what she was like in the past. In the past, Li Lanni was a friendly little angel, smiling back at everyone who smiled at her and often hanging out with many of her friends.
The present Li Lanni, however, was too different. Not only did she not seem capable of keeping close friends, she was rather intimidating. She could emit a scary aura even when she was simply in her own thoughts.
But she couldn’t blame her. After all, she had suffered a huge trauma and was now insecure about everything.
Ring!
Li Lanni’s phone chimed.
She took it and checked the new text message.
Her eyebrows pulled together before she placed the phone on the desk facing down and lifted her hands to massage her temples.
That kind of reaction... It wasn’t hard for Cheng Yu to guess who had texted her. From the timing, she could pretty much guess the content as well.
"I suddenly feel hungry. Let’s grab a snack outside school, shall we?" She spoke when she was calm enough to not detonate.
"Sure." Cheng Yu’s eyes lit up. "There’s a newly opened dessert shop near the school. I heard their cakes are especially delicious; the head chef is a former winner of the Dessert Master competitions."
