Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 487 - 486 You’re Eating Here Too

"Do I even need to ask? After toiling through three years of tough studying, I've finally emerged and can relax a bit. Would Dongxu go for an early morning read by the lake if it weren't for the chance of encountering the campus beauty?" said He Guizhong.

"A waste of effort!" Lu Lei, who had been buried under the covers, popped his head out and said succinctly.

"Exactly, to have a chance encounter with the campus beauty, there first has to be a campus beauty. Nowadays, which campus beauty would be reading by little Mingyue Lake in the early morning? So Dongxu, just give up on this fruitless endeavor," Li Chenyu nodded and said.

"I'm really fed up with you guys, always going on about the campus beauty. Can't you think about something healthier?" Ge Dongxu said, clearly annoyed.

"Please, constantly talking about the campus beauty just shows how healthy we are. On the other hand, you, not even interested in the campus beauty, don't have some issues, do you?" Li Chenyu said.

Lu Lei pulled the covers around him a little tighter.

"Healthy my foot, you're all pale and scrawny. Without more exercise, even if the campus beauty threw herself into your arms, you could only watch helplessly," Ge Dongxu retorted with a laugh.

"Damn! You've been silent all this time, I didn't expect you to be so vicious when you roast someone," Li Chenyu sat up in bed abruptly.

"I'm serious, a healthy body is the capital of revolution. I've studied some traditional Chinese medicine, and your constitution is really weak. In the morning, it's best if you get up early and do some exercise," Ge Dongxu said earnestly.

"Pfft! Exercise for what? This is just the result of three years of intensive study in high school and chronic lack of sleep. If I can just make up for the sleep during the four years of university, I'll definitely become as strong as He Guizhong," Li Chenyu dismissed the advice.

Seeing that Li Chenyu wasn't taking his words to heart, Ge Dongxu just shook his head and didn't insist, instead asking, "I'm about to go have breakfast, do you want me to bring something back for you, or will you get up and eat yourselves?"

"Bring me a portion, please. These days of military training have been grueling like a dog's work; today, I've got to indulge in lying in bed for a bit longer," Li Chenyu quickly said.

"Me!" Lu Lei uttered a single word.

"I don't need it. We martial artists adhere to continuous practice. I need to get up and go to the lake to practice my punches afterward," He Guizhong stated.

Ge Dongxu nodded, took note of what Li Chenyu and Lu Lei wanted for breakfast, and then left the dorm room.

Jiangnan University has as many as twenty-two canteens, big and small. The dormitory where Ge Dongxu and the others stayed was the closest to the largest canteen, Canteen One, so he headed straight there after going downstairs.

Because it was Sunday, and many students, like Li Chenyu and the others, preferred to sleep in, Canteen One was rather empty compared to the long queues at each serving window during regular class times.

With fewer people around, Ge Dongxu was in no rush to buy breakfast for Li Chenyu and Lu Lei; he first got a bowl of porridge and some pickled radish for himself.

As his cultivation grew deeper, Ge Dongxu's diet tended towards lighter fare, and sometimes eating was purely out of habit.

Now, as long as Ge Dongxu maintained his cultivation at midnight and at Mao Hour, he could go three or four days without feeling hungry.

The server was a middle-aged auntie who, seeing a big guy like Ge Dongxu only wanting a bowl of porridge and pickled radish, showed a touch of pity in her eyes. After Ge Dongxu paid with his meal card, she hesitated, then added a white bun to his plate.

"Auntie, I didn't order the bun," Ge Dongxu quickly said upon noticing.

"You're growing, how can you eat so little! Consider it a gift from me," the middle-aged auntie said.

The students at the other serving windows and those standing behind Ge Dongxu showed various expressions, some reflecting a touch of pity, others a hint of contempt.

Ge Dongxu was slightly startled, and then he realized why he had been given so little food—that the woman serving it must think he was a poor student. However, the kind-heartedness of the serving lady did warm his heart once he understood her intentions, and as for the students who might think less of him because of it, Ge Dongxu didn't care in the slightest.

At his level, why would he care about those looks?

"Thank you, auntie," Ge Dongxu said with a smile to the lady at the window before carrying his tray over to an empty table to sit down.

The overall quality of the students at Jiangnan University was still quite good, but there were inevitably some with poorer characters, as well as some who were quite snobbish. Therefore, the good intentions of the serving lady inadvertently subjected Ge Dongxu to some discriminatory stares.

As Ge Dongxu sat down to dine, quite a few people looked his way, and there were even whispers about him from some.

Right at that moment, three girls entered through the door.

All three girls were very attractive, but one in particular stood out with her long, straight legs that involuntarily drew people's gaze.

"Look, look, there's a beauty over there!"

"Wow, isn't that Xu Yanran, the long-legged beauty from the School of Economics?"

"It really is her. The two with her aren't bad either. They seem like the belles of the School of Economics too, and the one with the particularly spectacular chest is called Lin Xiaojie, the vice-president of their student council."

"..."

As soon as the three girls walked in, the eyes of all the boys in the cafeteria brightened, and the buzz of conversation started up.

"Yanran, Xiaojie, are you two sick today or something? Not only did you not sleep in, but you also made a long trek to the first cafeteria for breakfast." A girl with short hair, who in both figure and look was slightly less stunning than the other two, complained with dissatisfaction, seemingly unaware of the many eyes on them.

"I say, Dandan, would you just stop complaining? We didn't ask you to follow us here," Lin Xiaojie retorted with a roll of her eyes, looking around the cafeteria as though searching for someone.

The boys in the cafeteria, upon catching Lin Xiaojie's glance, either shyly bowed their heads with their hearts thumping or, if they were bold and thought themselves handsome, puffed out their chests and met her gaze.

Unfortunately, Lin Xiaojie's eyes skipped right past their returned stares.

"Exactly, it's just breakfast. What's with all the fuss?" Xu Yanran chimed in, also looking around like Lin Xiaojie.

Suddenly, the eyes of both Lin Xiaojie and Xu Yanran lit up, and they quickly made their way toward a corner of the cafeteria.

In that corner, a male student was eating his spartan breakfast all alone.

"Xu... Dongxu! What a coincidence, you're here for breakfast too?" Lin Xiaojie approached with a face full of "surprise."

"Yeah, what a coincidence!" Xu Yanran followed with a face of "surprise" as well, though her expression was even more unnatural than Lin Xiaojie's, her pretty face flushed with a hint of red.

"Yes, quite a coincidence. You're here for breakfast too?" Ge Dongxu looked up at the two of them, smiling as he spoke.

Lin Xiaojie and Xu Yanran's faces turned even redder.

This was naturally no coincidence at all!
