"I'm heading back to the academy, Miss Fang, goodbye," Mi Shen said, her expression indifferent as she walked past her.
Fang Ruo didn't call out to her again, simply watching Mi Shen's retreating figure, her beautiful brows and eyes slowly narrowing.
Upon returning to the academy, Mi Shen plunged into her books.
People say that the sea of learning is boundless and to study is to row against the current, but for Mi Shen, studying brought her joy. Once she concentrated, time flew by quickly.
Before she knew it, it was time for lunch. Just as she was about to finish the last question and head to the cafeteria, a delicate bowl of black pepper beef appeared before her.
Looking up, Han Xu's smiling face came into view, as she pushed the beef in front of her, "Mi Shen, please enjoy your meal."
"Did you buy this for me?"
"Mhm," Han Xu nodded, her eyes sparkling, "I bought two portions. If you don't mind, can I eat with you?"
