Thanks for the invitation, I am in the state of collapse, brushing attribute upgrade

Upon hearing this, Gwen did not show any disappointment, but smiled and said,

"It's not a big deal. I just eat while standing. As long as I have something to eat, it's fine."

"Yuan Zhisheng, have you ever eaten while standing?"

Upon hearing this, Raiden Mei couldn't help but be surprised.

"Well, it's just a trivial matter in wilderness survival training camp."

In fact, Gwen, who had just adapted to a life without even a desk in middle school in his previous life, casually said what he had planned and waved his hand.

"That's really amazing..."

A look of surprise appeared on her pretty face. Mei Lei Dian sighed, stood up and put on her schoolbag.

"Come on, I'll take you to the school cafeteria—

If you plan to eat in the cafeteria in the future, you can check out the reservation service there, but I heard that the dishes are not very rich, so in general, it is recommended to bring your own lunch box..."

Although her expression was cold and calm, Mei Raiden still diligently gave Gwyn advice.

Both of them were well-trained and soon arrived at the cafeteria.

At this moment, the cafeteria was bustling with people. The limited seats were all occupied. There was a short queue in front of the window. Obviously, not many people ordered food here.

However, with the arrival of Gwyn and Mei, the noise in the cafeteria soon died down. All eyes were focused on the two of them, most of them curious about Gwyn.

Ge Wen, the transfer student who took the initiative to contact Mei Raiden, has become a celebrity on the campus forum in less than half a day.

However, Gwyn and Mei, who had anticipated this, both ignored the gazes from all directions and did their own things.

However, the food the cafeteria could provide for the two latecomers was very limited, and Gwyn eventually chose to give up.

"So what are you going to eat for lunch?

The bento boxes in the convenience stores near the school should all be sold out by now..."

Looking at this new classmate who didn't fit in with the others with some curiosity, Mei Lei Dian couldn't help but wonder how Gwen planned to spend his lunch today.

As for sharing her lunch box with Gwyn, Mei Raiden has never thought about it at all.

"I still have a few compressed biscuits in my bag, so I can easily use them to pay for today's meal... I developed a habit during training camp to always have some food on hand just in case.

As for the bento, I'll wait until after school to find out if there's any sold on the way to school."

Shrugging indifferently, Gwen glanced at the students who occasionally cast their gazes over here.

"By the way, where are you going to have lunch, Raiden-san?"

"As for me, any place to sit will be fine..."

Seeing Gwen acting as if everything was a small problem, Mei Raiden's spirits lifted a bit. She didn't mention that she was ostracized by the whole school and had to find a deserted place to eat lunch every day.

"Then do you want to go together?"

Gwen suggested, raising an eyebrow.

Although Mei Raiden was at the lowest point in her life after her father was imprisoned, she was jokingly said to be in the best state to be conquered.

However, even the current Mei Raiden is not so easy to approach. She is like a hedgehog with its spines exploded, wary of anyone who tries to approach.

It is not clear whether Kiana will have a special favorability bonus because of the conquest gem, but what is certain is that Gwyn, who does not have it, can only take it slowly.

"Well, let's go together."

Mei Raiden nodded, turned around and walked out facing the many dazzling gazes, with an indifferent expression, as if she ignored the malicious gazes.

However, in Gwen's eyes, that figure looked particularly lonely...

Chapter 136 Lunch after half a year

"Um……

Is the environment nice? "

On a small path in the school garden, looking at the relatively clean bench on the side of the road, Gwen glanced around and casually praised it.

"Well, it's okay this season. If we wait until summer, there will be more mosquitoes here, and it won't be very suitable."

Taking out the purple lunch box that was very personal to Mei Raiden from her schoolbag, Mei Raiden recalled the news she had seen from the campus community and introduced it to Gwen.

"Indeed, that's the bad thing about parks..."

Gwen nodded in agreement, sat casually on the side of the bench, took out his lunch rations - a large bag of compressed biscuits, and began to eat slowly.

"..."

Mei Lei Dian looked at Gwen's pocket in surprise, wondering where he took out the compressed biscuits from. However, she did not ask much, but just silently opened her lunch box and prepared to eat.

"Want a piece?"

Gwen noticed Raiden Mei's actions and took out another compressed biscuit and handed it to her on the other side of the bench.

"I brought this from Europe. It tastes great."

"..."

Mei Lei Dian was about to refuse subconsciously, but seeing Gwen's bright smile, she hesitated for a moment, and her cold face quickly thawed, imitating the smile of her father in her memory.

"Thank you."

As she spoke, Mei Raiden reached out and took the individually wrapped compressed biscuits from Gwyn's hand.

Then, Mei Raiden flipped over the lid of her lunch box, placed a rice ball on it, and took out spare cutlery from her schoolbag, handing them to Gwen.

"I made this at home. It might not taste as good as a professional chef, but it should be edible. If you don't mind, you can try it, Yuan."

"……Thanks."

Looking at the unnatural smile on Mei Raiden's face for a moment, Gwen reached out to take Mei Raiden's gift in return, but the answer he said made Mei Raiden's heart skip a beat -

"However, Raiden-san, it's best not to force yourself on some things—

At least personally, I prefer a more genuine way of getting along with others rather than those empty things."

"..."

Mei Raiden tried to imitate her father's way of winning people over, but was exposed by one word. She was immediately embarrassed. The smile on her pretty face froze and she didn't know how to respond.

"I can see that you, like me, aren't very used to this kind of thing. It's best not to contaminate yourself...

Perhaps in society, it is necessary to learn these things appropriately, but at least for me, sincerity is more useful than those things. "

After saying that, Gwyn took a bite of the rice ball that Mei Raiden gave him. Although it didn't make his mouth water, it was still something closer to cooked food than compressed biscuits.

"...Thank you, Minamoto-kun."

Hearing Gwen's words and watching him casually tasting his rice ball, Raiden Mei pursed her lips, the smile she had been trying to force disappeared, and she returned to her usual coldness, giving up the idea of learning some of her father's ways.

However, although the expression on her face returned to its usual coldness, Mei Raiden's mood couldn't help but become a little happier.

"..."

Gwen observed Mei Raiden out of the corner of his eye, and made sure that his words did not cause any disgust to this cook who had not been too deeply poisoned by Japan's traditional culture. Only then did he relax and happily eat his not-so-delicious lunch.

Besides Mei Lei Dian, Gwen also did not neglect Seele on the other side—

"It was a bit of a mistake. The school cafeteria here in Neon isn't very well-equipped, so I could only eat some compressed biscuits for lunch. Luckily, someone gave me some rice balls, so I could taste some rice.

By the way, Xier, what did you eat in the Quantum Sea?

Is there any food left in the house you found?

If there is any, can I still eat it?"

Gwen, who had already found out Xier's name during the half-day chat, asked casually.

"..."

Seeing that the topic suddenly shifted from curiosity about the Quantum Sea to lunch, Xier, who had regained control of her body, paused with her pen.

At this moment, the stomach that was originally empty but didn't feel much because of habit suddenly felt hungry, and the girl who was just thinking hard about how to answer Gwyn's question couldn't help but have tears in her eyes.

If Gwyn is really from the same world as her, then she hasn't eaten for half a year!

Although she was used to it, the body's instinctive desire for food still made Xier's originally good mood fall to the bottom in an instant.

Just now, Xier and Stigma Consciousness also looked at the products recorded on the back of the notebook, but because there were no points, they didn’t feel that much.

Now, when she was asked by someone who was having dinner, Xier suddenly felt an indescribable sense of grievance in her heart.

"?"

Looking at Xier who had not responded for a long time, Gwen raised his eyebrows. He already had the answer in his mind. He put the pack of compressed biscuits in his hand to the side where Raiden Mei couldn't see it. With a slight movement of his mind, he spent one point and sent half of it to Xier.

In an instant, a line of printed text appeared on Xier's notebook, which was different from the message Gwen replied to.

"Do you want to accept the red envelope [compressed biscuits] from your friend 'Sunshine Gun'?"

"..."

Xier, who was pursing her lips tightly, saw this line of words. The surging emotions in her heart could no longer be controlled. The moisture in her eyes turned into tears and slowly slid across her smooth and pretty face. However, an indescribable joy appeared on her little face. The tip of the pen lightly touched the box behind the question and slowly slid across a check mark.

The next moment, several beautifully packaged and neatly arranged compressed biscuits appeared next to the notebook.

There were still fresh traces of tears on her little face, but Xier had a big smile on her face. She lightly picked up a piece of compressed biscuit, tore open the package, and slowly put it into her mouth. Feeling the aroma of the perfect mixture of sugar and oil on the tip of her tongue, Xier suddenly felt an indescribable sense of happiness in her heart. For a moment, she even forgot to say thank you.

In the body, although the consciousness of the Holy Mark wanted to remind Xier to be careful about the food, but after feeling the overwhelming emotions in Xier's heart, he gave up the idea and just watched Xier's actions silently, sharing this unspeakable sense of happiness with Xier.

Seeing that Xier didn't reply to him, Gwen, who had some guesses about Xier's current situation, didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he ate lunch slowly to relax his brain.

However, before Gwen and Mei Lei, who were quietly eating their lunches on the bench, could finish their food, several figures appeared at the end of the path amidst a flurry of conversation...

Chapter 137: Former Friends

"Minister, after we came here a few times to check, we found that the number of couples meeting here privately at noon has decreased a lot..."

The blue-haired young man wearing glasses and a discipline committee armband cautiously reminded the pink-haired girl who was walking in front.

As the most "notorious" department under the Student Union, the Discipline Committee members have always been the most hated by many students.

Places like the groves in the park are the main targets of inspection by the discipline committee members.

"Ye Shan, don't forget that we haven't been here for a week."

The pink-haired Student Union Discipline Department Director Kawaguchi Xiaozi didn't care about the opinions raised by her favorite subordinate. She spoke in a calm tone, as if everything was under control.

"If nothing unexpected happens, there will definitely be some people who can't hold back and run here..."

As they were talking, they had already turned a corner and saw Mei Raiden and Gwyn eating on a bench.

Seeing the familiar long purple hair, Kawaguchi Xiaozi's eyes lit up and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly:

"Look, isn't this a harvest?"

As a former good friend, and the discipline director who "misjudged" Raiden Mei's behavior two months ago and caused the rumor that "Raiden Mei is having an affair outside the school" to spread in the school, Kawaguchi Xiaozi is naturally very familiar with Raiden Mei.

"...

?

! ”

Following the gaze of their minister, Ye Shan and his companions saw a man and a woman eating on a bench.

Although it seemed that the two were not targets that needed to be punished by the Discipline Committee, the several Discipline Committee members who were well aware that their minister did not like the eldest daughter of the Lei Dian family... did not raise any objections, but just followed their minister's footsteps and walked towards the two people on the bench.

"?"

On the bench, Gwen, who was eating the last piece of compressed biscuit, suddenly felt something and saw several people coming aggressively at the end of the path.

"The person who came here is not good..."

After casually reminding Mei of Raiden, Gwen put the last half of the compressed biscuit into his mouth, held the package in his hand, folded it neatly, and put it in his trouser pocket.

After receiving Gwen's reminder, Mei Raiden also looked up and met Kawaguchi Xiaozi's excited gaze. Her heart sank.

As one of Mei Raiden's former good friends, the discipline minister was also one of the people who made her see certain realities.
