Make It Last Longer

Time to eat! Time to eat!

On the first day of school, Lin Yu planned to pay a good visit to the school cafeteria, which he hadn't seen for a long time.

It's almost impossible for the words "cheap" and "delicious" to appear in the same place.

If you add "school cafeteria" before them, it's even more of a fantasy.

However, the cafeteria of the Third Middle School is really great!

Rarely, it can have all three attributes at the same time.

There's even an additional bonus.

The cafeteria ladies are immune to Parkinson's syndrome!

After getting his food at the window, Lin Yu happily carried his tray and left. He casually found an empty seat by the window and sat down.

He buried his head and ate for a while.

A strange fragrant breeze mixed with two scents wafted over.

One was a nice floral scent that Lin Yu was very familiar with. It was the smell on Tang Manman.

The other was a fresher scent, faint, like the smell of green oranges.

It was also quite familiar, even more so than the floral scent on Tang Manman.

With his cheeks puffed out like a hamster, Lin Yu looked up blankly.

He saw Tang Manman and Gu Yue standing side by side in front of him.

It could be seen that the relationship between the two was not harmonious.

Standing together, the awkwardness seemed to overflow between them.

Tang Manman seemed to be a little afraid of Gu Yue. Standing beside Gu Yue, she didn't even dare to look at Gu Yue directly!

However, Tang Manman's main emotion towards Gu Yue was resentment. She didn't give Gu Yue a good look at all when she was around her.

She was both timid and resentful!

Gu Yue looked extremely embarrassed. She also felt too shy to look at Tang Manman. The guilt almost dripped from her facial features. Obviously, she hadn't forgotten what had happened before.

Looking at these two rivals, Lin Yu asked with food in his mouth, his words slurred:

"What's up?"

After Lin Yu asked the question, Tang Manman paused for a moment. After some mental preparation, she got straight to the point and said:

"I want to have lunch with you."

Saying that, Tang Manman took out a Lin Yu usage coupon printed with a dragon pattern from her pocket and gently placed it in front of Lin Yu.

Lin Yu couldn't help but smile.

Hehe.

She didn't take out many of these coupons when he tricked her during the holiday. Now she could take out one so easily. It seemed that he should be able to collect all the coupons soon!

"Sure."

"Take a seat."

Lin Yu put the coupon back into his pocket and cheerfully invited Tang Manman to sit down.

After Tang Manman sat down, Lin Yu turned to look at Gu Yue beside him and asked:

"What do you want?"

"I, I..."

Gu Yue stammered. Before she could say anything, Tang Manman, who was sitting across from Lin Yu, suddenly interrupted her and said:

"I don't want her to sit here."

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment looking at Tang Manman, then he turned to look at Gu Yue again.

The embarrassment on Gu Yue's face became even more obvious. She forced a smile, but soon she couldn't even maintain the superficial smile.

Her hand holding the tray was shaking. After standing there at a loss for a while, Gu Yue stammered out a poor excuse and then fled away with her head down.

"I, I went to the wrong place!"

Gu Yue left.

Looking at her departing back, Lin Yu suddenly remembered a question that he had ignored for a long time.

After thinking deeply for a moment, Lin Yu decided to talk to her about it when he had time.

How could such a thing not be done?

This was a matter of attitude!

Retracting his gaze, Lin Yu looked at Tang Manman across the table. He swept away the solemn look on his face and cheerfully picked up a piece of beef for her, saying happily:

"Have some meat."

"Look how thin you are."

"Being too thin is not good for your health."

Tang Manman glanced at the braised beef on the tray but didn't move. Instead, she looked up at Lin Yu with her lower lip slightly pouted, almost writing "unhappy" on her face.

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Yu asked curiously.

"It's unfair."

Tang Manman looked at Lin Yu resentfully and said discontentedly.

"What's unfair?" Lin Yu didn't react at first.

"It's just unfair." Tang Manman said willfully.

"One coupon can make you accompany me for half a day outside school."

"But in school, you can only accompany me for a short meal.

"It's unfair."

Lin Yu thought about it and felt that she was right. He nodded thoughtfully and said:

"You're right."

"Then one coupon will cover half a month's lunches. How about that?"

Tang Manman seemed very satisfied with this result. A bright smile soon bloomed on her face.

But then she thought about it. Her eyes rolled halfway around nimbly. Suddenly, she held back her smile and tried to bargain:

"How about a month?"

"No way." Lin Yu firmly rejected Tang Manman's insatiable demand.

"Why!"

"This is so unfair!" Tang Manman said aggrievedly.

"Still unfair?"

"One coupon for half a month isn't enough?"

"Why are you so greedy?" Lin Yu asked disdainfully.

"No!" Tang Manman argued.

"Look."

"I'm now the fourth in the whole school, right?"

Lin Yu nodded.

"I worked very hard to get this ranking!"

"This is already my best result.

"I hardly have any room for improvement!

"I don't know what rank I'll get in the next exam.

"I can't get a lot of coupons at once anymore.

"So your coupons should last longer, right?"

Saying this, Tang Manman looked at Lin Yu expectantly, blinking her cute eyes.

Lin Yu smacked his lips. He felt that what Tang Manman said made sense.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yu agreed to Tang Manman's request.

"Alright."

"Then it'll be a month."

Hearing this, Tang Manman immediately became happy. She no longer held back her smile and happily picked up a large piece of chicken with few bones for Lin Yu. Her eyes were so happy that they almost closed.

Lin Yu was also very happy.

He could have lunch with Tang Manman.
