Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 1053: The Cafeteria (8)

"What’s up with eating? You’re always thinking about food." Tong Sha angrily shoved Tong Mingqiang and ran out.

Tong Mingqiang awkwardly nodded at Gu Lingling and the others, then chased after her, "Sasha, don’t run, be careful not to fall."

Fall? What fall?

It’s always like this. She’s no longer that little girl who couldn’t walk steadily back then.

That was when Tong Sha was around ten years old. They never figured out what was wrong, but her legs just wouldn’t walk properly, and she’d often fall. The Tong Family originally didn’t think much of it, but Tong Mingqiang insisted on their father taking Tong Sha to the village’s barefoot doctor.

They said it was due to malnutrition in childhood.

After knowing this, Tong Mingqiang would find ways to get her some meat, catching sparrows in winter and fishing in the river in summer, and her legs gradually got better.

But deep down, Tong Mingqiang always had this subconscious belief that Tong Sha’s legs were not the best.

So, whenever she’d get angry and run off, he would always say this phrase after her.

But to Tong Sha’s ears, it was always a reminder of those embarrassing past times, so she couldn’t hate those words from him more.

And so, she’d run even faster.

In the end, she dazzlingly fell.

Gu Lingling, "..."

Wen Jing, "..."

"Sasha, are you alright?" Tong Mingqiang, with his short legs, hurried over and worriedly helped her up, "Did you hurt anywhere?"

"I don’t need your help." Tong Sha angrily pushed him away.

Besides bringing her humiliation, what else could he offer her?

"I..." Tong Mingqiang was a bit confused, not knowing what he did wrong?

"Wanna go eat?" Yang Yunhai looked at Gu Lingling and said, "What do you feel like eating?"

"We have a class right after lunch, why don’t we go to the main canteen?" If we go out to eat, there won’t be enough time.

Just not sure if Yang Yunhai would be willing to eat in such a crowded place.

Having been with him for a while, she almost forgot he was somewhat of a germaphobe.

"Sure." Yang Yunhai’s lips curved slightly.

Just what he wanted.

On their way into the school, he heard several voices talking about Gu Lingling.

Like how the goddess is back for class.

And discussions about bumping into her by chance and such.

In short, Yang Yunhai felt his assertion wasn’t clear enough.

He was still planning on how to propose to Gu Lingling about eating in the canteen and flaunting some affection, but Gu Lingling beat him to it.

Absolutely like a perfect coincidence.

"What do you want to eat?" Gu Lingling asked, "Our school’s main canteen food isn’t too bad."

Wen Jing, "..."

Suddenly, she had a feeling of witnessing a PDA.

She didn’t want to be a third wheel, but Gu Lingling insisted on dragging her along.

Well, occasionally witnessing some lovebirds isn’t bad, maybe it’ll inspire her to want a relationship someday.

At the main canteen, they placed their backpacks down to save a seat, and Gu Lingling let Yang Yunhai sit there while she went with Wen Jing to get the food.

This was her turf, no way she’d let Yang Yunhai lift a finger.

All he had to do was eat.

As far as what to buy, she knew Yang Yunhai’s taste perfectly well.

But when she returned, Gu Lingling somewhat regretted leaving Yang Yunhai alone there; perhaps she should have packed the food to go.

Whimper whimper...

She finally understood the feeling Yang Yunhai used to describe, wanting to carry her around.
