-19 Chapter 96: Lunch Box 2

It was around 10 o'clock in the morning when Yi Fei had a break from teaching.

Yi Fei opened her lunch box to eat the sandwiches and the salad inside. It was very delicious that Yi Fei ate her sandwiches while humming to Missing You by G-Dragon feat Kim Yoon Ah. It was evident that she was in a good mood.

Sometimes, Yi Fei wondered what she did to deserve such a caring boyfriend; if everything was real. Yi Fei never knew that she would be this lucky. So she made a mental reminder to learn to keep Wu Chen properly.

Yi Fei opened her Roronoa Zoro notebook and wrote a small reminder at the corner of the first page of her notebook. Her lips curled up when she reread the reminder she made.

One of the tiers of the lunch box was packed with sandwiches; thinking about how she could not possibly finish it all by herself, Yi Fei wanted to share it together with someone else.

Yi Fei remembered how Bai Jing Ting always gave her food. So, she decided to share the sandwiches with Bai Jing Ting. Yi Fei realised that Bai Jing Ting didn't give her any food for today so she assumed that Bai Jing Ting must have been busy to buy his breakfast.

With that in mind, Yi Fei took the lunch box with her and walked happily to the Bai Jing Ting's office.

When she reached the building where Bai Jing Ting's office was located, the place was eerily quiet. Usually, there should be some students on duty that walked around in Bai Jing Ting's office area to help him with some chores, but at the moment, the hallway was vacant.

The quietness of the hallway piqued her curiosity.

There were a lot of things going on in Yi Fei's mind. From the horror story that she was forced to watch by John, if the hallway of a school was quiet and empty, most probably the ghost will appear near the stairs. Take Ju-On for example.

If Yi Fei were to see the whole things from the comedy-drama she had watched all these years, the present situation where she was now could be a hidden camera prank; which she hated the most. Yi Fei didn't understand why people would prank other people and thought that it's funny.

The last perspective that was on Yi Fei's mind was love confession. Usually, in the Rom-Com drama she watched, when the hallway was empty and devoid of people, there could be a romantic event going on somewhere.

Out of all the things that were on her mind, Yi Fei opted for Rom-Com plot because the other two was either too scary or too annoying.

Yi Fei smiled to her thought and praised herself of how creative she was. So she walked slowly and silently while checking every corner of the hallway in case she could see and hear some exciting things.

Yi Fei could hear faint voices from Bai Jing Ting's office, so she walked closer. The closer she got, the clearer she heard of the voices. Bai Jing Ting was in a conversation with a female companion. Yi Fei thought nothing of it and continued walking until she reached the door.

"Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you the most? Why won't you love me when all I do is loving you?" It was Cheng Xiao Meng's voice.

Yi Fei knew that she was not supposed to eavesdrop on a private conversation like this, but she couldn't help it but get curious. Yi Fei had written her previous story by using Bai Jing Ting and Cheng Xiao Meng as her muse.

Like her readers, she also shipped the two of them, Bai Jing Ting and Cheng Xiao Meng, silently and hoped that they would end up together. Now that the real life did not go according to her novel, Yi Fei wanted to know why. Why would Cheng Xiao Meng utter her latter question towards Bai Jing Ting?

Yi Fei placed her lunch box on the floor quietly and then put her ear against the door so that she could hear well. She knew that she was rude at the moment, but her curiosity got the best of her.

"Xiao Meng, it wasn't reverse psychology when I told you not to love me."

There was a slight pause. Nobody talked for some time.

"Don't fall in love with me. You deserved a better guy than me."

Curiosity kills the cat. Yi Fei was glued to the door when suddenly, the door jerked opened. Yi Fei lost her stability for a moment and fell onto the floor.

While still on the floor, Yi Fei lifted her head slowly because she was embarrassed for getting caught while eavesdropping on other people's confession. She looked up to the person who was standing in front of her, and she was confounded – Cheng Xiao Meng was crying.

Cheng Xiao Meng didn't offer her hand to help Yi Fei to stand up. While Yi Fei was still on the floor, Cheng Xiao Meng walked away from Bai Jing Ting's office with tears streaming down her cheek.

Bai Jing Ting went over to Yi Fei and offered his hand to help her, but Yi Fei was too preoccupied watching Cheng Xiao Meng's retreating. Bai Jing Ting had to call her name a few times to get her attention. His hand was ignored.

After her name being called for a few times, Yi Fei looked at Bai Jing Ting – while still on the floor. She had a lot of questions for him about Cheng Xiao Meng.

Upon seeing her stunned look, Bai Jing Ting wondered how much did Yi Fei hear of the conversation between him and Cheng Xiao Meng because he didn't want Yi Fei to know of his feeling from a conversation. He wanted to be the one to tell her properly.

Yi Fei snapped out from her bubble of thought and stood up abruptly by herself without the help from Bai Jing Ting. She took her lunch box and put the carrier to Bai Jing Ting's extended hand that she ignored.

"Brother Ting, you eat this. I have an important thing to do."

Without waiting for his reply, Yi Fei ran towards the direction where Cheng Xiao Meng took just now. Bai Jing Ting knew that Yi Fei must want to go after Cheng Xiao Meng.

Bai Jing Ting looked at the bright pink lunch box in his hand. He guessed that it's time for him to confess his feeling.
