Why it never ends

Chapter 1167 Thanks
Because of Stella, Qiqi completely forgot that there were no other children to play with her throughout the afternoon. She absent-mindedly followed everyone to the snack table in front of the green plants in the glass house to line up for today's fruit puree, and then with anticipation - just like she always saved the best part of a dish for last, she ran to the corner, opened her homework book by herself, and read the comments Stella left for her.

There were no special comments on it. Stella not only corrected her grammatical errors very carefully, but also gave many more elegant sentence usages.

Turning the page, Kiki saw that Stella had drawn a smiley face at the end and wrote "Excellent" in capital letters, followed by five exclamation marks.

When Santa came out of the kitchen, he saw Kiki sitting alone on the steps with her head down, not knowing what she was doing. Worried for a moment, he went over and called her name. Kiki raised her head with a smile on her face, and Santa was stunned: "What are you doing here alone?"

"My classes are all over for today," Kiki replied, "I'm eating here."

"Why aren't you with the other kids?" Santa walked over and reached out to hold Qiqi's hand, "Where's Eleven? Aren't you guys together?"

Qiqi immediately withdrew her hand. She didn't know how to answer Santa's question, so she simply didn't answer. She hugged her homework book tightly in her arms, and with her other hand she held her unopened fruit puree and spoon, and stepped back a few steps: "I'm going back to my room first! Goodbye, Aunt Santa!"

The glass house at the other end.

Eleven was also alone at the moment, but she was in a bad mood. She couldn't tell what she felt, but she felt that everything was a mess. She threw the food she had eaten into the trash can in annoyance, feeling empty inside.

Yes, everything was empty. She wanted to be angry, but after a while she felt a little sad. But before that sad thought came out, she forced herself to think about something else - everyone here is so annoying! Everyone!

In the past, this kind of emotional catharsis could take away a lot of things, but today it didn't work. The more Eleven forced herself to think about other things, the more she realized one fact: Qiqi was not here.

Strictly speaking, today was the first day they hadn't spoken to each other, but she had seen how Kiki had solved the problem on her own, and how she had been praised in public by Stella, the seemingly extremely picky substitute teaching assistant - all of this almost told her that Kiki didn't need her at all.

Qiqi doesn't need anyone here either.

When she thought of this, Eleven clenched her fists and almost cried out of grievance. Eleven rushed out of the palace and rushed to the lawn - she suddenly realized that she also wanted to be favored by someone like Qiqi.

She suddenly hated why she had to have a reading and writing class today. If the theme of today's class was outdoor activities, she would never be in her current situation.

She hated the teaching assistant whose name she hadn't even remembered yet. Why did she have to go to the doctor today when she had a stomachache? If it weren't for Stella, Qiqi wouldn't have had such a happy afternoon!

If Qiqi wasn't so happy, she might have——

Eleven quickly stopped this thought and snorted in his heart: What happens to her is none of my business!

She couldn't bear it any longer, so she sat under a tree and burst into tears, as if someone had bullied her badly.

Gahoduolei slept in her room all day.

At dusk, she finally woke up and found Lu Qizhen sitting on Eunice's bed, looking at her with a smile on her face, as if she had been there for a long time.

"...You're here?" Jiahoduolei was sleepy and her limbs were still a little clumsy. "Did Eunice give you the key?" "Yes." Lu Qizhen nodded repeatedly.

"I'm so hungry." Jiaduolei muttered to herself as she stood up, and saw a row of desserts and savory snacks like jewels on the table by the window.

She walked forward and picked up the rose lychee mille-feuille on the far left. The texture of the puff pastry was amazing, and when she took a bite, the lychee chantilly and raspberry jam came pouring in, instantly reminding her of the afternoon when they snuck into Chloe's room.

"…Chloe sent it?" Jiahoduolei's eyes suddenly brightened. "I've never eaten this before!"

"I ordered it from the palace's kitchen." Lu Qizhen folded her hands behind her back, "Do you like it?"

——These things are not on the regular menu of the palace. It costs money to order them, and it is a considerable amount...but there is no need to talk about this.

"Delicious, delicious!" Jiaduolei finished the mille-feuille in just a few bites. She then looked at the puff placed between the dessert and the savory dish. A small piece of lemon peel was dotted on the mouth of the puff. She thought it should be sweet, but after chewing it, she realized that it was filled with meat filling.

"What is this..." She ate several in a row, "I've never eaten this before."

"It contains lobster meat and cream salad," Lu Qizhen said with a smile, "They refused to wait for my notification before delivering it, saying that they have to prepare dinner after five o'clock, so they can only deliver it at this time at the latest - I was also worried that you would sleep until midnight, and by then these things would have been too long and would not taste good!"

"Then just shake me awake--" Just as she finished speaking, a familiar feeling of guilt suddenly came over her. At this moment, she felt as if she had just woken up from a dream. She actually ate so many calorie bombs in less than five minutes!
An instinct made her want to rush to the toilet immediately, but her mouth, which was still chewing, told her clearly that every bite she took was not cheap.

She suddenly felt a little painful, but this familiar regret was accompanied by a lingering satisfaction.

"...Why did you suddenly send me something delicious?" Jiahoduolei turned back vigilantly, "Could it be——"

"Thank you!" Lu Qizhen hugged her, "Why didn't you tell me that you made a bet with Zoe and the others?"

Jiahoduolei was stunned for a moment, and another unpleasant memory came to her mind again.

"Thank you!" Lu Qizhen continued to thank them, "I have already paid them all the money you lost to them. Although I didn't ask you beforehand, please allow me to do this!"

Jiaduolei was stunned again, this time longer than last time, and she held back her laughter - it was almost some kind of sudden surprise.

Jia Heduolei immediately looked away: "Who asked you to act on your own? Thirty dollars is just a drop in the bucket."

"I know thirty dollars is just a drop in the bucket! It's nothing at all!" Lu Qizhen nodded repeatedly, "But the important thing is that you are willing to believe me!"

Lu Qizhen hugged Jia Heduolei's neck tighter and continued to say many words of gratitude. Jia Heduolei listened in a daze.

She suddenly thought with some regret that perhaps among all the people around Hesta, only she and Eunice would worry about thirty dollars?
