NOVEL WEB Chapter 21
Chapter 21
What to do if you wake up and find you’ve been turned into an expression pack overnight?
Ling Meng was in line for breakfast in the second canteen when he was suddenly patted on the shoulder.
“Ling Meng!”
Ling Meng turned his head towards the sound and was all smiles as he greeted, “Cao, Cao Mei?”
“Good morning.”
“…Good morning.”
The game’s all-powerful Lemon Daddy not only stuttered, but also blushed strangely.
“Come to buy breakfast?” the department’s flower3 casually asked.
“Yeah… Do you eat steamed buns? I’ll treat you…”
The department’s flower tittered out a laugh and turned away without a word. After a few steps, she turned back and said, “The expression pack is very cute.”
Ling Meng: o///_////o
“It’s true that you blush when you talk to girls.”
Ling Meng was taken aback and found that Shan Zhu had been standing behind him since who knew when.
“You want to scare a person to death?” Ling Meng said irritably, neither stuttering nor blushing at all. “No…what’s true? Who did you listen to?”
Shan Zhu also laughed and didn’t reply.
Ling Meng looked down and saw Shan Zhu still had his slippers on his feet.
“Can’t you go out without wearing slippers? How disillusioned your powder is.”
The popular anchor wears slippers in the open every day. Tsk, Ling Meng thought that he had knew some great gossip.
“Just came out to buy breakfast,” Shan Zhu smiled nonchalantly, “I don’t have class in the morning.”
“Up so early even without class?” Ling Meng was surprised, “I never eat breakfast when I don’t have class.”
More than just Ling Meng, this was a common problem for almost all college boys.
“Skipping breakfast is bad for your stomach. What day don’t you have class? I’ll deliver it to you.”
“Ah?”
His mouth rounded into an O-shape; it was hard to imagine such a silly expression on the face of the game’s all-powerful Lemon Daddy.
When Shan Zhu saw this, he had the urge to pinch his face: “I’m going to buy it anyway, and we live close to each other.”
“Tuesday and Friday…” Steamed buns falling from the heavens? Ling Meng felt a little weird.
“You know, live stream in the evening?” Shan Zhu deliberately changed the topic to deny him the chance to refuse.
“…broadcast, eh.” Ling Meng couldn’t keep up with the quick rhythm of the change in topic.
“Will it still be live mining?”
“Obviously it’s me carrying the whole audience?” Ling Meng retorted.
“Yes, yes,” Shan Zhu gave him a push, “it’s up to you.”
“Hey? Expression pack!” The students in front of them who had just finished paying looked back and excitedly called out.
Ling Meng: …
“I actually saw it live!”
“…I wasn’t live at first!”
“Expression pack, can we take a group photo?”
“No.”
“Then I’ll return my own P.” It’s hard to say what kind of P that would be.
“Let’s take a group photo! I like group photos the best!”
The student happily pulled out their phone, taking the picture. Shan Zhu suddenly squeezed in, warmly hugging Ling Meng’s shoulder and the double photo became a threesome.
“I also want a group photo with the expression pack,” Shan Zhu explained it like this.
“Haha, my classmate is a kindred spirit, add me on WeChat and I’ll send it to you.”
The two people completed the secret transaction and Ling Meng bought breakfast in a huff: “A cup of soy milk, a steamed bun.”
“Classmate, are you a star?” the window uncle asked him.
“No.”
“Don’t lie to me, I just saw someone rushing to take a group photo with you.”
“Of course!” the classmate who asked for the photo didn’t know how not to listen. “He’s red hot right now!”
“Really? My daughter loves to chase stars. Take a picture with me too and I won’t charge you for this steamed bun.”
Ling Meng: …I just wanted to eat a steamed bun quietly (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
