Chapter 345: Mrs. Lu Delivering Food to Zi Yi

The several male students smiled as if they understood.

“Based on Junior Zi’s appearance, you must have attracted all the attention of the male students during the training. As such, the instructors were unable to stand it and had to transfer you away.”

“That’s right, if I were to be training together with Junior Zi, I would also be unable to help myself from looking in her direction.”

They joked around for a while before Professor Dou talked about serious matters with Zi Yi.

“For tonight’s event, our School and the School of Computer Science will be responsible for some of the technology-related matters. If you’re free, you can come and join me.”

Students were not only the ones who would be involved in such a large event. The various directors or professors would also join in when needed.

This time around, Professor Dou and another professor from the School of Computer Science would be the technical consultants and they would be sitting in the control room to ensure things run smoothly.

Dou Xiaoyong said to Zi Yi, “There will be many elites in the society, who have graduated from M.Uni, joining the event tonight. Celebrities and journalists are also invited. Our Mechanical Department has also brought out a batch of high-end robots to maintain safety this time. We have to make sure that no accidents happen to these robots.”

In fact, the Mechanical Department bringing out the robots was a way to promote themselves and they could not afford for any accidents to happen.

This was also the reason why Dou Xiaoyong had called Zi Yi over.

Of course, Zi Yi would not reject his request.

The few of them continued to hang around in the room and Dou Xiaoyong led the several Ph.D. students to continue assembling the robots. Zi Yi then took out her phone to check the situation with her bar and club. Only then did she discover that there were many people who had designs on those two places in the span of the one month that she was away. However, all of them had been resolved by her Uncles and Lu Jingye.

One of the male students went to pack food for lunch and brought it back to the room.

After finishing their lunches, they continued with the work in the afternoon.

The group of students continued until 4 p.m, before they finally walked out of the Science and Technology building.

As there was an event tonight, there were not many people who were in the building at this time.

The Ph.D. students bid farewell to Professor Dou and Zi Yi. “Professor Dou, Junior Zi, we’ll be heading back to our dormitories to freshen up first and then we will meet you at the auditorium.”

Zi Yi and Professor Dou headed towards the car together.

Dou Xiaoyong said, “Let’s go and grab some food first and then we can head over there in advance afterwards.”

Just as they headed to the car, Dou Xiaoyong’s phone suddenly rang. His expression instantly turned serious after he answered the call.

The other party seemed to have said something and he only responded with one sentence. “Alright, I’ll be right there.”

He hung up the call after that and said to her, “Little Zi, something happened in our research room and I have to make a trip there at once. You’ll help me stay guard in the control room when the time comes.”

He then passed his work pass to her. “I’ll try to rush over as soon as possible. If anything were to happen in the middle, you can just resolve it directly.”

Zi Yi knew that her Uncle also worked in the National Research Center and thus, she did not pry further and simply took his work pass as she nodded. “Second Uncle, you can rest assured that I will watch the place.”

Dou Xiaoyong nodded and directly drove away.

Just as Zi Yi was about to head to the nearest canteen to get some food, her phone suddenly rang.

She took her phone out and took a glance. She was slightly surprised, but the corner of her lips could not help but curl up.

The caller was Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu told her over the phone that she would be coming over to spectate the evening event. Moreover, she had arrived at the school entrance.

Mrs. Lu asked her over the phone, “Little Zi, where are you right now? Auntie shall come over and look for you right now.”

Zi Yi told her about her whereabouts. “I’m outside the Science and Technology Building of the School of Mechanical Engineering. I’m about to head to the canteen for dinner.”

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, “Then wait for me right there. I’ve brought you dinner, so don’t head to the canteen.”

Zi Yi responded with an ok and they hung up the call.

She did not continue to walk around and simply waited outside the building.

Around 20 minutes or so later, she saw a low-profile car driving over.

The car parked in front of Zi Yi and the door opened. Mrs. Lu, who was dressed in a casual outfit, had alighted from the car.

Zi Yi sweetly called out. “Auntie Lu.”

Mrs. Lu was full of smiles at the sight of Zi Yi.

The driver alighted from the car at the same time and brought over the packed food.

Mrs. Lu said, “Little Zi, there doesn’t seem to be anyone around in the vicinity. Why don’t we find somewhere nearby and have dinner? After that, we’ll walk towards the auditorium.”

“Alright.”

Zi Yi took the lunchbox from the driver and led Mrs. Lu towards one side.

There was a forest right beside the Science and Technology Building and there were also seats available there.

They sat down on a bench and Mrs. Lu looked at Zi Yi for quite some time, before she raised her hand and caressed her head. While feeling a slight heartache, she said, “You’ve lost weight.”

Zi Yi’s eyes smiled into crescent moons and she said, “I haven’t lost weight.”

She then showed her arm to Mrs. Lu. “I have been training military dogs at the base every day. Auntie Lu, take a look. Even my arms have developed muscles.”

Mrs. Lu pinched her arm while smiling. “That’s good. You’re good-looking and you need to be stronger so that you won’t get bullied by others.”

In fact, Mrs. Lu had been worried that Zi Yi would get bullied in school. As a mother, no matter how smart or capable their child was, they would still be worried deep down.

“Auntie Lu, there’s no need to worry. No one can bully me.”

Having said that, she placed the food in between them. There were two bowls of rice prepared and clearly, Mrs. Lu had yet to eat. Zi Yi then passed her one of the bowls of rice and they started to eat together.

While eating, Mrs. Lu told Zi Yi the reason why she had come.

“Jingye made a trip back home in the morning and he told me that there’s an evening event in M.Uni today. I was thinking that since I had nothing to do, I might as well come and look for you.”

She then picked up a piece of meat for Zi Yi. “Little Zi, eat more. Jingye said that you’ll be heading abroad to participate in a competition tomorrow. The food abroad definitely does not taste as good as home cooked food. Don’t become thinner when you’re there.”

Zi Yi munched on the food in her mouth and after she heard what Mrs. Lu said, she said while smiling, “Auntie, I’ll be back in a few days time. How could I possibly get slimmer in such a short period of time? Moreover, I’m not picky with food and I’m easy to feed.”

Mrs. Lu was amused by her words and grabbed another dish for her.

Zi Yi hastily said, “Auntie Lu, you should eat too.”

“Alright.”

After dinner, the driver came over and took the boxes away, while they walked in the direction of the auditorium.

Along the way, Zi Yi told Mrs. Lu some of the fun things she had done in the military camp.

When Zi Yi mentioned how Feihu brought over a cauliflower snake to scare her, Mrs. Lu simply laughed to the extent that she could not close her mouth.

“As expected of military dogs. Each and every one of them are jokesters.”

“That’s right when I kicked the snake back to Feihu’s head, he had even revealed a stupefied expression.”

“Hahahaha…”

Zi Yi also mentioned some of the situations where she had fought with them by using her wits, amusing Mrs. Lu.

After they walked for a while, the number of people around them started to increase.

When everyone saw Zi Yi, all of them could not help but sneak a peek at her.

Some of them noticed Mrs. Lu walking beside Zi Yi and had even whispered, “Who’s that? Could it be Zi Yi’s elder sister?”

“She’s also very pretty, just like a noble lady.”

Mrs. Lu was delighted by their words.
