Chapter 351 Having Breakfast with My Sister
Chapter 351 Having Breakfast with My Sister
October 14th, the second day of the school sports meet.
At seven o'clock in the morning, there was a faint chill in the air at the Shanghai Theatre Academy in Shanghai.
In dormitory 404.
Su Ze, Gu Dapeng, and Lin Le, the three sons, were in a semi-conscious state due to excessive excitement last night.
Su Ze was still clutching the autographed photo with the heart on it tightly in his hand, muttering to himself:
"Bai Zhi... don't go... brother will buy you milk tea..."
Jiang Bai suddenly sat up from the upper bunk with a light and agile movements.
After washing up, I picked up my white sneakers.
"Third brother, why are you up so early?"
"Go...go save a seat for Sister Baizhi?"
Gu Dapeng turned over in a daze, his pajamas askew up to his stomach.
Jiang Bai bent down to tie his shoelaces, raised an eyebrow, and chuckled.
"Go have breakfast."
After saying that, Jiang Bai walked out of the dormitory without looking back.
.......
It was 7:30 a.m., outside the school gate.
In contrast to the quietness of the dormitory, the breakfast stall street outside the school gate was bustling with activity.
White steam rose from the large stove.
The aroma of fried dough sticks, pan-fried dumplings, and beef noodles hits you right in the face.
Jiang Bai didn't choose those crowded breakfast shops, but instead specifically found a breakfast shop with a slightly retro decor that allowed dine-in and had tables and chairs.
There weren't many people in the store at the time; only a few individuals were scattered around, rushing to their early shifts.
"Boss, a super-sized bowl of spicy beef noodles, with two eggs."
"Another bowl of pork wontons, the kind with thin wrappers and lots of filling."
As Jiang Bai spoke, he discreetly observed his surroundings.
"Alright! Young man, you're eating two portions by yourself? You're in great shape!"
The boss chuckled and responded, his slotted spoon swirling in the pot.
Jiang Bai laughed it off:
"I have a good stomach, so I need to eat more to feel full."
Before long, two steaming bowls of breakfast were served.
Jiang Bai didn't rush to pick up his chopsticks. He looked around to make sure no one was watching this corner before carefully taking out a few women's items from his pocket.
A pair of white fox fur ear prosthetics, and a red bow hair clip.
There is also a double-layered pearl necklace.
Jiang Bai first placed the bowl of light wontons directly opposite him on the table.
Then, with an extremely flamboyant air, he casually draped the pearl necklace over the napkin box next to the wonton bowl.
The red bow hair clip was worn along with the necklace.
Finally, the pair of white fox fake ears were placed diagonally against the vinegar dish, deliberately spaced a little apart, to create the illusion that "the owner had just gotten up to wash his hands."
"Tongzi, you see, as long as I don't say anything, everyone will probably think that there is a girl sitting across from me."
Jiang Bai chuckled inwardly and then adjusted the angle of his phone.
He didn't shoot a panoramic view, but instead used a "first-person" perspective:
In the foreground of the picture are glistening beef noodles with red oil, while in the distance are delicate and soft wontons.
The focus blurred the background, but the smooth luster of the pearl necklace on the table, the red bow hair clip, and the white fur on the fox's ears stood out starkly in the morning light.
"Snap!"
The photo freezes in time.
Looking at the photo on his phone screen, which exuded a sense of tranquility, Jiang Bai put his things away with satisfaction, and then began his leisurely stroll.
Jiang Bai used chopsticks in her left hand and a spoon in her right, and in less than five minutes, both bowls of breakfast were completely empty, not even the soup was left.
He wiped his mouth and stood at the entrance of the breakfast shop.
I took a deep breath and opened WeChat Moments.
Select the following groups to view: [University Classmates], [404 Support Group], [Teacher Zhang]
Caption: [It's been a long time since we had breakfast together. My sister still prefers wontons, but I think the beef noodles are better. Baizhi, eat slowly, it's not like when we were kids, I wouldn't fight you for food!]
Click to send.
That's right.
This is Jiang Bai's motivation for getting up early on purpose.
For this fake scene of them appearing together!
Jiang Bai thought about it last night and realized that just having the siblings in the broadcasting room using falsetto together wasn't stable enough.
To make the small and large sizes more distinct, Jiang Bai decided to create more photos of the two siblings together!
Shortly after Jiang Bai posted the message on his WeChat Moments, news broke.
Jiang Bai glanced at the little red dot on the message notification in his WeChat Moments and knew without even thinking that it was probably about those three sons.
.......
Meanwhile, in dormitory 404.
Su Ze was squatting on the toilet scrolling through his phone when he came across Jiang Bai's post on WeChat Moments. He let out an extremely piercing scream:
"Holy shit!! You beast, Third Brother!!!"
"You're sending out this nuclear-level PDA first thing in the morning?!"
Gu Dapeng was putting on his pants when he heard this and slid down the bed ladder.
He landed on his buttocks without complaining of pain, and immediately knocked on the toilet door:
"What?! Bai Zhi is having breakfast with him?!"
"Where? Which store? Is it too late for me to get there now?!"
Su Ze rushed out of the toilet, but before he could say anything, Lin Le in the dormitory spoke up.
He was referring to Jiang Baixin's recent post on WeChat Moments.
Lin Le pushed up his glasses, staring intently at the pearl necklace in the photo, his expression extremely grave.
"Look at this composition. Jiang Bai occupies two-thirds of the picture, and Bai Zhi's sister is only showing her necklace and hairpin... This shows that the third brother's possessiveness as a sister-protecting maniac has reached its late stage."
The three of them looked at the photo, their hearts breaking like a QR code.
"I'm eating cold noodles in my dorm while he's out eating wontons with a fairy?"
Su Ze left a message below in grief and indignation:
Su Ze: [Jiang Bai! You son of a bitch! Everyone gets a share! Send me the exact coordinates, and I'll take some men over there to 'bribe' the boss. From now on, that table will be our 404's exclusive seating!]
Followed by.
Gu Dapeng: [Brother-in-law, you didn't even invite us?!]
Lin Le: [Based on the timeline, there's a 90% chance we won't make it in time!]
.......
Meanwhile, far away in the teachers' apartment, Lao Zhang was eating breakfast and casually scrolling through his WeChat Moments.
"Pfft—cough cough cough!"
Old Zhang choked on the porridge so badly that it went down his trachea, and his face turned purplish-red.
He stared intently at the pair of fox ears in the photo, which looked somewhat familiar due to their frequent appearances in the picture.
"Jiang Bai...you kid, your business skills are really extensive."
Looking at the crowd below frantically replying, Old Zhang let out a long sigh.
"One person, two bowls, and a bunch of props."
"I've taught acting classes for so many years, and you're the real master of visual deception."
.......
Jiang Bai walked along the path back to school, looking at the messages popping up one after another on his WeChat Moments, a wicked smile creeping onto his lips.
"They saw the 'Angelica dahurica' that I wanted them to see."
"And I got to eat the beef noodles I wanted."
"This is what you call a win-win situation for the Jiang family!"
Back at school, Jiang Bai arrived at the main road leading to the stands almost right on time.
We hadn't even reached the meeting point for Class 6 of the Performing Arts Department yet.
From afar, I could see Su Ze standing on the steps like a waiting-for-husband statue, craning his neck in anticipation.
"Third brother! Over here! Come quick!"
Su Ze, with his sharp eyes, shouted so loudly that several girls from the surrounding departments turned to look at him.
As soon as Jiang Bai entered the class line, before he could even stand still, three pairs of bright green eyes immediately fixed on his face.
"Brother-in-law, how was your early morning beef noodle soup?"
Su Ze leaned closer with a sinister look on his face, holding up his phone screen, which prominently displayed the "brother and sister breakfast" photo that Jiang Bai had just posted on his WeChat Moments.
Gu Dapeng rubbed his dark circles under his eyes, his tone filled with the desolation of someone abandoned by the world:
"Third brother, you've changed. You used to share a sip of soup with us when you ate instant noodles, but now when you take Baizhi to eat wontons, you can't even send us the coordinates?"
"Do you know what kind of tears I shed when I was eating that cold bun just now? Those were the tears of an old father betrayed by his unfilial son!"
Lin Le nodded in agreement, and the three of them shook their heads and sighed together.
Despite the overwhelming resentment, Jiang Bai calmly yawned and casually remarked:
"What's the rush?"
"You guys get up later than pigs. When I left, Su Ze was still shouting 'Bai Zhi, don't run away!' in his sleep. How am I supposed to take you there?"
"Besides, you all know what kind of person my sister is, she's shy."
"With such a large table full of men around, how could she possibly finish those wontons?"
That one word, "shy," instantly shut the three of them up.
"That's true, Bai Zhi is indeed very shy, and very innocent."
Su Ze nodded seriously, then his eyes turned fervent again.
"Hey, brother-in-law, where's Bai Zhi?"
"Didn't you finish eating in the photo? Why didn't you come to school with me?"
