Chapter 316: Late Compensation

Life returned to normal. Murong Qiao got up, washed up, and prepared for class everyday.
However, this time, she was alone. After all, there would always be some changes when she moved out.
[We’re on the fifth row on the left. I’m helping you occupy a seat! Come quickly!]
Murong Qiao lowered her head and glanced at the message. Then, when she saw that it was from Yang Xin, she couldn’t help but smile.
However, this smile did not last long before it was scattered by the man blocking in front of her.
“I don’t think we have anything to say to each other.” Her voice turned cold.
Looking at Nan Jin who appeared in front of her, Murong Qiao frowned and restrained the smile in her eyes as she looked at him indifferently.
But Nan Jin was persistent. “That’s not why I’m here.”
He explained softly. Even though he saw Murong Qiao’s obvious resistance to him, Nan Jin still endured the pain in his heart and remembered his goal.
He slowly handed out the convenience bag in his hand and handed it to Murong Qiao, maintaining a restrained and polite distance.
“I just want to give you breakfast,” Nan Jin said gently.
He originally wanted to wait for Murong Qiao at the foot of the dormitory building, but after knowing that his Little Sister had moved out, Nan Jin had no choice but to change the place to wait. He stayed at the school gate early in the morning to search for her familiar figure.
In the morning, Nan Jin stood there with breakfast. With his good looks, the figure at the school gate was like a scenery.
At this moment, he was still speaking softly and giving Murong Qiao breakfast with a fawning attitude. This scene was seen by many students at the school gate.
Murong Qiao frowned. “I don’t—”
She was about to say that she did not need it, but before she could finish speaking, Nan Jin stuffed the still warm breakfast into her hand.
“It’s not healthy to go hungry.” Nan Jin looked at her. “Have fun in class, Qiaoqiao.”
With that, Nan Jin hurriedly turned around and left, as if he was afraid that Murong Qiao would react and return the breakfast to him.
The corners of Murong Qiao’s lips curled up into an unhappy arc. His gaze shifted from Nan Jin’s hurriedly leaving figure to the breakfast in her hand.
A cup of soy milk paired with some fried dough sticks. In addition, there was a pack of small steamed buns. They carried the temperature of freshly baked steamed buns, causing the fragrance to rise and permeate one’s sense of smell. They were fragrant and delicious.
But Murong Qiao had no appetite at all.
Not to mention that she had already eaten before she came, this breakfast was not her favorite. Murong Qiao liked non-greasy food in the morning, and she liked to eat porridge to warm her stomach.
In other words, Nan Jin did not know what she liked to eat at all.
At the thought of this, she smiled sarcastically again, but there was no joy in her eyes.
Unfortunately, class was about to start, and there was no time for Murong Qiao to deal with this breakfast, so she could only bring it to the classroom.
“You’re here.” Murong Qiao found the right seat and sat down. She greeted Yang Xin and Leng Yan beside her.
Yang Xin leaned on the table weakly. “It’s so annoying to attend this class again. I came over right after waking up and haven’t eaten anything in the morning—”
As if in response to the obvious resentment in her words, Yang Xin’s stomach also rumbled at the right time.
Murong Qiao was about to stuff the breakfast under the table when her hand paused. Then, she took out the breakfast and placed it in front of Yang Xin.
“Coincidentally, I brought some breakfast. Eat it.” She said with her eyes lowered.
The fragrance of breakfast immediately wafted out of the bag, tempting Yang Xin’s appetite.
Her eyes widened in surprise. “Qiaoqiao, you’re too nice!”
Yang Xin reached out to open the bag, but then she seemed to have thought of something and suddenly stopped to look at Murong Qiao.
“I’ve eaten,” Murong Qiao explained helplessly.
Hearing her say this, Yang Xin finally ate her first bite in relief and prepared to finish the breakfast in front of her.
As their grades increased, the number of classes also increased. It was time for the four major classes.
“Go and eat first. I’m taking a taxi home later.” Murong Qiao bade farewell to the two of them.
She lowered her eyes and picked up her pen to complete the last line of notes. Then, she began to pack her things and leave the classroom.
At dinner time, the school gate was filled with people.
Murong Qiao walked among the crowd. After sending An Nuo a message that she was going home soon, she looked up and walked towards the door.
Around her were the noisy and gossipy discussions of the students.
“I just heard from my roommate that there seems to be a handsome man waiting for someone at the school gate. Shall we go take a look?”
“Then he must be waiting for his girlfriend. Does he need you to care for him?”
“I don’t think so. From the pictures on the forum, he looks so mature. It’s more like he’s waiting for his Little Sister…”
The car she booked would arrive at the school gate in five minutes. Murong Qiao couldn’t help but speed up.
However, as soon as she walked out of the school gate, her gaze locked onto the familiar figure outside.
Nan Xuan, who was wearing a suit, was standing by the path a few steps away from the school gate, holding something in his hand.
Almost the moment she saw him, Murong Qiao moved to avoid him, not wanting to have any interaction with him.
However, things did not go according to plan. In fact, just as Murong Qiao stepped out of the school gate, Nan Xuan saw her with his sharp eyes.
“Qiaoqiao!” he hurriedly shouted.
Nan Xuan could naturally tell that Murong Qiao wanted to avoid him, but he still walked in front of her.
Could it be that she was unlucky today? Why were they all waiting for her at the school gate?
Murong Qiao clicked her tongue impatiently. “I’m going home.”
The bad mood from meeting Nan Jin in the morning had just dissipated when Nan Xuan came. The two brothers must have done it on purpose.
“This is the soup I made.” Nan Xuan did not answer her question.
He stuffed the thermos into his Little Sister’s arms. “Hui University’s classes are very hectic. You can drink it to nourish your body.”
Nan Xuan’s actions made Murong Qiao feel even more puzzled. She looked at Nan Xuan in front of her hesitantly and even felt that he had taken the wrong medicine.
“In short, I just wanted to bring you the soup. I don’t mean anything else,” Nan Xuan explained quickly.
He even took two steps back to show his friendliness. “Remember to drink the soup. I won’t delay you from going home, Qiaoqiao. Remember to be careful on the way back.”
This time, Murong Qiao did not manage to react. When she came back to her senses, Nan Xuan was long gone.
After Murong Qiao returned home, she told An Nuo about this.
“Nan Xuan? Sending soup to you?” An Nuo’s expression was as if she had seen penguins in the desert.
Murong Qiao nodded, strengthening the authenticity of this matter.
However, An Nuo looked at Murong Qiao and then at the thermos that she had brought back and placed on the table. Her brows were furrowed, and her face was filled with confusion.
After hesitating for a long time, she asked, “Has Nan Xuan changed? Why is he treating you well now?”
An Nuo’s question was also what Murong Qiao was thinking.
In fact, if not for the fact that she was ambushed by Nan Jin and Nan Xuan one after the other, she would not have thought of bringing this soup back. But it was precisely because she did not know what these two people were up to…
“I’m not sure,” Murong Qiao replied truthfully.
An Nuo could be said to be the most familiar with the Nan family other than Murong Qiao.
Just from recalling what the Nan family had done to Murong Qiao, An Nuo was furious.
She looked at the thermos for a while. “For what they did, it’s considered a light punishment if you don’t forgive them for the rest of your life.”
An Nuo snorted. Fler tone was a little sarcastic, firmly indicating that she had always been on Murong Qiao’s side..
