Chapter 29 Fruit Cave

Chapter 29 Fruit Cave

Early next morning.

Room 803, Building 6, Zhuyuan, Huaijiang University.

Xia Zhaoyao fumbled and turned off the alarm on his cell phone that was buzzing next to his pillow.

Well, it's 6:10. She glanced at the time and slid her finger to open the WeChat message reminder.

【05:47】

[Qin said Wuyi]: I'm leaving! I promise to arrive on time!

[Qin Yue Wu Yi]: The heroine shows mercy...

This guy Zhaishuo's biological clock is not like a homebody at all.

Xia Zhaoyao turned his head and looked outside the balcony. There was still indigo silence all around.

Putting down her mobile phone, Xia Zhao climbed out of bed tiptoe, went to the balcony to wash up happily, combed and tidied her hair that was messy after sleeping all night, and chose a beige short-sleeved short-sleeved shirt in the wardrobe, with a small shawl on the outside.

Add cropped jeans.

After all, she was going to discuss business today. Although she didn't have professional clothes, she couldn't dress up like a maid.

As for the shoes, well... Xia Zhaoyao compared them carefully in the suitcase...

Sports shoes, white shoes, sports shoes - the soles don't seem to be high.

never mind--

Xia Zhaoyao patted his cheek and stood on tiptoe in front of the mirror.

So beautiful! What I love to talk about is her!

After finishing his hair for the last time, Xia Zhaoyao walked into the apartment elevator with confidence.

At the same time, Xia Zhaoyao's WeChat mobile phone vibrated slightly.

[Qin said Wuyi]: I'm here.

[Qin Yue Wu Yi]: [Photo]-(In front of Zhuyuan Apartment)

Um?

Very punctual.

Xia Zhaoyao looked at the time.

Six thirty-eight.

Down the steps from the main entrance of the apartment building, a gray-black silly roe deer was waving.

Perhaps also considering that he was going to discuss cooperation today, Qin Shuo changed into normal clothes for the first time.

Wearing a thin gray jacket and a dark T-shirt, you can vaguely see the muscle lines underneath. Even with a height of 1.83 meters, he looks quite intimidating when looking down from above - uh... wait? Muscles

Lines? Does the perverted house still have such a thing?

Xia Zhaoyao walked down quickly and poked him with lightning speed.

"Oh, you can't tell, do you have abdominal muscles? Do you still lift irons at ordinary times?" Xia Zhaoyao said in surprise.

"Hey - don't move your hands or feet! I almost spilled the food."

Qin Shuo frowned and handed the two plastic bags he was carrying to Xia Zhaoyao.

"Six steamed buns, two bowls of oil tea, and a vinegar box are also inside."

"I didn't buy peanut milk. Today I only have soy milk and the deluxe pancake set you ordered——"

In front of the dormitory building in the early morning, a romantic scene from an idol school drama was performed.

Unfortunately, this atmosphere immediately returned to reality the next moment.

"——You're not tall, but you're pretty good at eating. I thought you were just two buns..."

Qin Shuo didn't have a chance to finish what he said, and it turned into a shrill scream.

"These are my sisters'—"

Xia Zhaoyao took back the white shoes that were rubbing on Qin Shuo's instep.

The touch and surprise in her heart now turned into intense displeasure.

"Help me carry the pancakes and soy milk first, and I'll send the steamed buns and camellia up first."

"Also...in view of what you just said, we will continue tomorrow morning."

"Um, what are you going on-"

"Sending food to apologize."

Xia Zhaoyao explained with a straight face and turned around quickly.

In this way, she can sleep half an hour longer tomorrow if she doesn't talk much?

…………

Huaijiang is a magical 4D city.

Huaijiang University is no exception - the Huaijiang Mountains are irregular and vast.

With the campus as the center, various commercial streets and residential areas spread out like undulating paper rolls.

In addition to the main entrance of the school located at the "lowest point", there are more than a dozen side entrances distributed at various altitudes and directions.

"On the right is Orchid Garden, on the right front is the multi-functional teaching building, and on the left is the Academic Affairs Office."

"The recycling station is at the end of Zhazi Street...the entrance to Zhazi Street is hidden next to the Beilin Faculty Canteen..."

Qin Shuo unfolded the map and slowly slid his fingers on it.

Xia Zhaoyao was nibbling a big pancake next to him while looking around and reading the road signs.

The campus map sent to freshmen by Huaijiang University does not indicate the names of places outside the campus.

In fact, except for a few side doors, even many smaller side doors are not shown above.

Along the winding Xiaobeifeng Mountain Road, Xia Zhaoyao and Qin Shuo passed at least four or five strange forks in the road.

If it weren't for the dual guidance of road signs and maps...and a little bit of Qin Shuo's ability to identify directions, Xia Zhaoyao alone might have been trapped in a wall on campus.

The rugged and complex campus environment does not only have two directions: up and down. Sometimes there are strange situations like Möbius strips that appear to go down and suddenly go up when walking.

Fortunately, Qin Shuo, a native of Huaijiang, is still responsible for navigation.

Even if the school map is abstract, he can figure out which direction to go by just looking at the road signs.

"Well, that should be right there. Donglin Faculty Canteen."

A few minutes later, Qin Shuo stopped and pointed to the road sign not far away.

Directly in front of the two of them was a short, old canteen with white brick walls.

The blue road sign at the entrance of the canteen is brand new, and it clearly says "Beilin Faculty Canteen".

"But……"

Xia Zhaoyao looked around and frowned in confusion.

The two of them seemed to have reached the edge of the campus now, and they could see the long school wall not far away.

The faculty cafeteria is located across the street. Since it was still very early, the lights in the cafeteria hall had not even been turned on.

"It doesn't look like there is a side entrance around here. Are you really not going wrong?"

"It's definitely wrong, and even if it's wrong, it's because the person who gave the sign was wrong."

Qin Shuo glanced at the little man next to him and closed the map.

"How about...make a voice call on WeChat and ask the senior sister?"

"Sister Tangtang can't be wrong——"

Xia Zhao shook his head, "And I heard clearly that he went out from the side door of the Beilin Faculty Canteen——"

"But Sister Tangtang and the others haven't passed by either. I heard that only the people at the recycling station usually have side door keys... We can only reach their base by going out from here."

This was the first time she had gone out on a mission alone. She was almost at the end now, so how could she ask for help because she was lost.

"Um……"

Xia Zhaoyao looked around carefully.

There is a branch road winding down around the edge of the faculty cafeteria.

"Down here..."

"Beilin teachers' fruit market, have you forgotten?"

Qin Shuo said quickly. He glanced at the direction Xia Zhaoyao was looking and shrugged.

"We came here when we were doing a research report, and the fruits sold here are the cheapest in the school."

"Because the store is located in a remote location, on the first floor of the cafeteria, the lighting is entirely dependent on the store's own light bulbs."

"...Yeah. I remember, and the hygiene here is not good."

Xia Zhaoyao nodded thoughtfully, still looking at the road.

Going down this road, there are obvious stains, debris, and peels scattered on both sides of the road.

It seems out of place with the clean and tidy main road of Huaijiang University.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Huaijiang University’s cheap fruit shops are concentrated here.

but……

Xia Zhaoyao looked at the clean and tidy main road, and then at the small fork in the road that suddenly became dirty.

"You Huaijiang, sometimes you go down to the first floor to go out... It's the first floor, right?"

"Um?"
