Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Yellow Spring, Mei and Thunder General

Chapter 17 Mei's food was snatched up.
"Brother Kong? Kong! Starry Sky?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang immediately thought of Xingkong, the person who had stood by him in his death and caused him to cut off his own arm. How could he possibly remember him?

Just mentioning the name "Starry Sky" brought a look of hatred to his face.

“Xingkong…yes! It’s him. Is he in this class?” Upon hearing Xingkong’s full name, Zhu Zhuqing was incredibly excited, her eyes filled with anticipation as she looked at the students sleeping on their desks.

Soon, following the gazes of the other students, my eyes fell on the seats in the back row by the window.

There was a little kid there, sleeping soundly with his face buried in a purple slime pillow.

Upon closer inspection, she recognized him from the details – he was the boy she had been longing for.

"Huh? Is school over?"

A classmate nudged Xingkong's table. Such a cute little girl was looking for Xingkong; I'm sure Xingkong wouldn't mind their disturbance.

Xingkong rubbed her eyes, still half asleep, and hugged her pillow as she headed outside.

"Brother Kong! It's...it's me? We made a promise."

Zhu Zhuqing jogged up to Xingkong and blocked his way out.

Looking up from the starry sky, one sees a cute girl who resembles a black kitten.

His spirits lifted immediately, and he exclaimed happily:
"Qing-mei, you've come to play with me!"

Then, Xingkong looked around and saw the envious looks from his classmates and the teacher's gloomy face. He quickly returned to his seat, scratching his head.

"School's not over yet?"

"Brother Kong, may I...can I sit next to you?"

Zhu Zhuqing walked shyly to the table in front of the starry sky.

"Okay."

Classes are so boring; with Zhu Zhuqing around, he can get through these tedious days much faster.

Zhu Zhuqing was overjoyed. She pulled over a stool and sat down with Xingkong.

Tang San, who had stood up to greet his new deskmate, was immediately extremely embarrassed.

He quickly and silently sat down.

Yu Xiaogang gritted his teeth and left with a cold face.

This is not what he thought at all!
This is so embarrassing, especially in front of the Xingluo Zhu family. How is he supposed to live after this?

There are only a handful of Soul Masters in the big circle. If this matter gets out, it will be an insult to Tang San and even Tang Hao.

I'm so useless.

He could only slink away, hoping that the people from the Xingluo Zhu family didn't take him seriously.

Since talking during class is not allowed and can disturb others, Zhu Zhuqing passed notes to Xingkong.

We chatted for a while about the school and Yu Xiaogang.

The starry sky must be laughing its head off.

What the hell is this research on the Beast Transformation Secret Technique of Beast Martial Soul?

Yu Xiaogang truly lives up to his reputation as a master of his time; his boasting comes out of nowhere.

"I can't believe I was fooled by him."

Zhu Zhuqing was very unhappy, thinking that Yu Xiaogang was some kind of mysterious master.

He even regarded Yu Xiaogang as Xingkong's master.

Does Yu Xiaogang deserve it?

Time flies when you're busy. Xingkong and Zhu Zhuqing hadn't had enough of chatting before school was over.

“Little Kong, I’m so glad you’re all out of school. I’ve booked rooms at the biggest tavern in Notting City. Where are your three older sisters? Let them come along so we can properly repay your life-saving grace.”

Zhu Zhuyun greeted him with a smile at the door.

Starry Sky shook his head and refused:

"What 'best pub'? Nothing tastes as good as Mei-nee's bento!"

"Sister Yun, Sister Qing, I'll take you to the school cafeteria so you can try my delicious food!"

Since Xingkong had said so, the two women couldn't force the issue. Xingkong's "elder sister" must be one of the three women from back then. Each of them was incredibly powerful; why were they working as cooks in this small place?
Even the stars raved about it, and they wanted to try it too.

The school cafeteria was bustling with activity; all the children rushed there as soon as get out of class was over.

Only after Mei became the cafeteria's chef did they realize what true culinary delight was!
This made the two sisters, Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun, even more excited.

"Let's go, we already have seats."

So many people were queuing for food, and the three of them were still taking their time. How long would it take them to get their food?

Fortunately, the starry sky is a special treat.

A table was already laden with delicious food, and the two women had already started eating.

When the other woman saw Xingkong and the others approaching, she rested her chin on her hand and smiled gently.

"So it's the two of you? Come on, let's eat together."

Mei is very powerful and had already discovered Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun. So today, she not only changed to a larger table, but also added a lot of food.

The two women sat down very reservedly, looking like young wives meeting their in-laws.

"Eat quickly, eat quickly, otherwise we won't have anything to eat after Yingbao and Huangquan finish eating."

Seeing that the two women weren't touching their chopsticks, Xingkong picked up a cream puff for each of them.

"Thank you, Brother Kong. I... I'll pick it up myself."

Zhu Zhuqing quickly thanked him and stopped Xingkong from putting any more food on her plate.

"Mmm...so sweet, so smooth..."

Zhu Zhuyun took a bite of the cream puff, and the cream inside flowed into her mouth, stimulating her taste buds and making her very enjoyable.

After all, no girl dislikes sweetness.

It's like the taste of love, making you want to be greedy.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing swallowed and took a bite. Her eyes sparkled, and then she swallowed the whole cream puff in one gulp.

"It's so delicious! I've never had such a delicious dessert before."

"Yes, even our royal pastry chefs don't have one ten-thousandth of this level of skill."

The two women praised it highly.

"Thank you~!" Mei smiled gently, then served food to the two girls.

The two women were very reluctant. They had come to repay a debt of gratitude, so why were they being taken care of by Mei?
However, it was so delicious that they couldn't stop eating. Without Mei picking up the food, they wouldn't be able to finish it.

Lei Yingdian and Huang Quan ate very quickly. The whole table of food was devoured in no time, leaving nothing behind.

Zhu Zhuqing patted her round belly, feeling satisfied, but also quite annoyed.

Eating so much, won't her flight attendant think she's a glutton...?

How embarrassing! How could my first impression be like this?!

I'm so embarrassed!

"Sister Qing, you're a noblewoman, why are you staying at my seventh dormitory?"

On the way back to the dormitory, Zhu Zhuqing also followed to Dormitory 7.

They are all children now, and every class, regardless of gender, lives in the same dormitory.

Dormitory 7 is not only a mixed-gender dormitory, but also the place for all work-study students in the school.

Zhu Zhuqing figured that since she was going to be living in a mixed-gender room anyway, she might as well share a room with Xingkong.

In the future, she will be able to better observe the life trajectory of the stars and learn useful experiences from it.

Zhu Zhuqing blushed when Xingkong asked her this:
"I...I don't know anyone well. Brother Kong, can I stay here?"

Xingkong nodded. Of course he could. Anyway, every night, after staying in Dormitory 7 for a while, Xingkong would run to his three wives' dormitory.

Zhu Zhuqing's presence here has absolutely no impact on the starry sky.

On the contrary, it can bring a lot of fun to the starry sky.
