Jiang Yu didn't go out, nor did he have much time to brush through Douyin, but he knows everything about what happened at school these past two days.

After all, he has Hu Zhihai, who likes to watch the excitement, by his side. For such fun things, he wouldn't even go to the library to study if he didn't buy a couple of bags of sunflower seeds and munch on them while watching the show.

"You have no idea, at that time there were at least a hundred cars blocked outside, and 'wham' a few hundred people surged in from those cars!"

Hu Zhihai's chubby face was flushed, not sure if it was from excitement or just being roasted by the kitchen stove, standing a bit behind the stove, gesturing wildly as he spoke,

"These people were like fierce tigers descending from the mountains, charging straight at the school gate. Though the dozen or so security guards from the security department turned pale and their knees were knocking, they didn't dare to back down and could only brace themselves!"

Among the people who came, the leaders were tall and strong with bulging muscles, one had a full beard resembling steel spikes, eyes like bronze bells, and opened his mouth to shout: 'Waaah ya ya ya...'

Jiang Yu turned his head suddenly and said, "Did he say his name was Zhang Fei, right?"

Hu Zhihai's speech was interrupted, his momentum halted, a bit caught off guard,

"Ah? Zhang, Zhang Fei?"

"You said it yourself, 'full beard resembling steel spikes, eyes like bronze bells', and likes to 'waaah ya ya ya' shout, isn't that Zhang Fei, who else could it be?"

Jiang Yu glared at him, saying irritably, "What a load of nonsense, go play somewhere else, stop messing around here, don't you see we're all busy?"

Hu Zhihai shrank his neck, smiled sheepishly, muttering, "It's not necessarily Zhang Fei, right? Could also be Li Kui..."

Jiang Yu: "..."

You brat, stuck here trying to bug me? Looks like you don't want to eat lunch today.

He stopped paying attention to him, Jiang Yu continued to stir fry the dishes in the big wok with a spatula.

Ever since the school strengthened campus management yesterday, most outside personnel have been blocked outside the gate, which has reduced the number of diners at the Seventh Dining Hall considerably.

Jiang Yu, Lu Shuwu, and other cafeteria staff were not unhappy, instead, they were as delighted as if it was New Year's.

After running at overload capacity for nearly half a month, not just Jiang Yu and the others, even the part-time students couldn't bear it anymore.

Now the number of diners has suddenly returned to normal levels, everyone can finally take a breather.

Jiang Yu suddenly remembered, everyone has been so busy lately that they haven't had a decent meal.

Because they often need to add dishes, in the end, there would inevitably be some leftovers, so the cafeteria staff would just eat a bit quickly to fill their stomachs.

Now that they can finally relax, naturally they should also "compensate" properly.

Thinking of this, he turned to Lu Shuwu at the other stove and said:

"Brother Xiao Wu, once you're done, go ask everyone what they want to eat, and then join Uncle Ma and the others to prepare the ingredients. When Xiaoyan and the others are done, we'll all have a good meal and take a nice break."

Lu Shuwu's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this, and he quickly asked, "Can I order anything?"

Jiang Yu looked at him speechless and said:

"It depends on having the ingredients in the pantry, right? Do you want me to conjure sea cucumber, abalone, and shark fin out of thin air for Buddha's Temptation?"

"Hehe, not exactly..."

Lu Shuwu laughed a bit embarrassedly, and said, "Alright, once I'm finished with this dish, I'll go prepare the ingredients!"

Saying that, he didn't say any more, turned back, and got busy again, seemingly with more energy than before.

Seeing him like that, Jiang Yu couldn't help shaking his head and smiling.

It seems that for some foodies, the greatest motivation is nothing more than a delicious dish.

If that doesn't work, then two dishes...

...

In the Seventh Dining Hall lobby, there was still some time before lunch service started, and just like before, a long line was already forming in front of the food serving window.

The line stretched all the way outside the dining hall door, and every student waiting to get food was eagerly looking forward to perhaps finding a change in today's menu.

After all, no matter how delicious those few dishes are, if you eat them every day, you'll get tired of them.

It has to be said, students' tastes have really been spoiled by Jiang Yu's Seventh Dining Hall.

Before at the Second Dining Hall, Jiang Yu only sold one kind of soup dumplings, yet students still came rushing to eat them every day, and some cried missing them during the National Day break.

"Look! It seems those outsiders aren't here today!"

After observing the line back and forth for a while, Linlin finally exclaimed with surprise,

"Now it's great, we won't have to worry about someone taking our food anymore!"

"The school gate has enhanced campus entrance and exit management, no outside vehicles are allowed in, so how could those people get in?"

Liu Sili seemed quite calm, she said,

"They can't eat up all the Seventh Dining Hall's food, after all, Senior Brother Jiang wouldn't really let us go hungry.

Though so many outsiders coming to eat at the Seventh Dining Hall was indeed a bit excessive.

This is a student cafeteria on campus, not those outside eateries."

"Anyway, I just find them annoying."

Linlin wrinkled her nose and "hmph," saying,

"They're so old, why can't they do something proper instead of coming so far to eat at a cafeteria, it's really annoying."

"I reckon, maybe they didn't want to either?"

Liu Sili shook her head, speaking softly,

"Who would willingly live in a way that they once hated?"

"..."

Linlin was dumbfounded, her mouth agape for quite a while.

What's up with this girl today? The things she's saying are a bit hard to understand!

...

Zhu Youfeng led Duan Yiming and the others to the Seventh Dining Hall. From afar, they could see the line for food winding and twisting all the way outside the main entrance.

He Xiaowei's eyes widened in surprise, exclaiming:

"Why are there so many people? The last time we came to eat, there was a line, but it wasn't this long!"

"This is already fewer people. If outsiders were allowed in freely, the queue would be at least a third longer, extending all the way to the street."

Zhu Youfeng didn't laugh at his ignorance. He explained,

"With fewer people, us students can eat in peace."

"Tsk tsk, Boss Xiao Jiang is really something!"

Hearing this, Duan Yiming couldn't help but express his admiration,

"Who can run a dining hall like this, making the entire school manage around the dining hall!

Everyone else worries about not having enough patrons; he, on the other hand, is afraid of being too busy with too many coming to eat!"

Saying this, he turned to look at Deng Linhui and asked, "If I gave you the dining hall, could you do this?"

Deng Linhui shook his head expressionlessly, "No, I can't."

"What about you?"

He Xiaowei burst out laughing:

"I wouldn't even need to do as much. As long as I can keep the dining hall's expenses balanced, my dad would probably laugh awake from his dreams!"

"That's why we still have a long way to go compared to Boss Xiao Jiang!"

Duan Yiming didn't laugh. He shook his head and said somewhat sentimentally,

"We have nothing to be proud of. Our little shabby company probably doesn't even make as much in a year as the Seventh Dining Hall's monthly profits!"

Deng Linhui: "..."

He Xiaowei: "!!!"

Come on, we're just here for a meal, and you managed to come up with a life lesson?

Is this money you're spending really worth it?

The four of them chatted while waiting in line. It wasn't long before the service windows started opening.

The line moved forward slowly like a giant snake. Among those waiting, some probably hadn't had time for breakfast and were starting to feel their stomachs grumble with hunger.

At that moment, as the enticing aroma of various dishes filled the dining hall, some couldn't resist and started pushing forward, causing some chaos in the line.

Duan Yiming was just about to say something when he saw two boys suddenly cutting in at the window.

The students in line behind them immediately protested:

"Damn! Are you shameless? Trying to cut in line? Get to the back of the line!"

"Everyone's queuing up seriously to get food, and you think you're special? If you act like this in society, you'll be taught a lesson in no time!"

"This is a bad habit brought in by outsiders. We never had anyone cutting in line before! Now you've quickly picked up this bad habit!"

"..."

The two boys who had cut in line were thick-skinned but didn't dare provoke the crowd amidst such criticism.

It wasn't because they felt embarrassed; they were mainly worried about getting beaten up.

At this moment, three boys with plastic ID badges hanging from their necks quickly walked over, pulling them back, sternly saying,

"Move, move, get to the back of the line! If we catch you cutting in line again, it won't be that simple.

Not only will you be blacklisted from the Seventh Dining Hall and never eat here again, but your misconduct will also be reported to your college, affecting your conduct scores based on the severity!"

This scene left Duan Yiming and the others dumbfounded.

Just for cutting in line, you could end up blacklisted and have your conduct scores deducted!

This is insane, right?!

And those three guys, what are they doing? Based on their appearance, they seem like students too. Who gave them this authority?

Duan Yiming suddenly had a revelation and asked,

"Are those three guys members of the School Protection Team?"

"Yes, they are. Impressive, right?"

Zhu Youfeng glanced at Duan Yiming and sighed,

"To maintain a good dining environment for us students and improve the dining comfort at the Seventh Dining Hall...

we students truly have our hands full!"
