It wasn't until nine o 'clock that Zhao Hai heard some movements downstairs. It was as if everyone had come back to life. Zhao Hai slowly closed the book and let out a long breath, calming his mood.
Zhao Hai woke up at six o 'clock in the morning, but it wasn't even seven o' clock when he came back. Now, he had been reading for more than two hours. To be honest, reading books to temper one's mind was very good. Zhao Hai's impatience had faded a lot, but he still missed Laura and the others.
Laura and the others had been with him for a long time. They had gone through many ups and downs with him. Zhao Hai didn't know how his body was right now, he also didn't know how Laura and the others were doing. This was one of the reasons why he was impatient.
Zhao Hai slowly opened the door and walked out. He saw Ma Liang and the others rushing to boil water to wash their faces. Looking at their appearance, Zhao Hai couldn't help but smile. This reminded him of his previous agreement.
When Zhao Hai came downstairs, Ma Liang had just finished washing his face. He wiped his face while looking at Zhao Hai and said, "Crane Grass, you're up. What's wrong? Have you washed your face yet? "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I've been up for a while. I've finished washing my face and was waiting for you. Then we can go eat together."
Ma Liang smiled and said, "Alright, but we usually eat our meals in the cafeteria. Today, we won't go out to eat. How about it? Do you want to go? "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Of course I want to go. If we eat outside every day, I can afford it. Let's wait for a while, then we'll go together." When Ma Liang heard Zhao Hai, he nodded and went inside his room. It didn't take long for him to tidy himself up and come out.
The two sat in the living room and chatted for a while. Before long, the others also finished washing their faces and rinsing their faces. Then they left Pine Forest Restaurant and went straight to the cafeteria.
The Academy's cafeteria provided students with three meals, but the quality of the food could only be considered average. Therefore, students with a bit of status wouldn't eat inside the Academy. They would usually eat outside the Academy. The three meals provided by the Academy were free, but the dishes were very fixed. If you really want to eat something good, you can go to the Outer Court and spend your money to eat. The Academy's cafeteria only had this kind of thing, you can eat it or not.
After Zhao Hai and the others arrived at the cafeteria, they discovered that there were a lot of people inside. Ma Liang led Zhao Hai to a table in the cafeteria. There were some iron plates on the table, as well as some clean bowls and chopsticks. Ma Liang and the others each took an iron plate as well as a pair of bowls and chopsticks.
These iron plates were divided into sections, just like the food plates in the cafeteria back on Earth. Zhao Hai didn't think that he would be able to see these things here. He didn't care about it as he took a plate, a bowl, and a pair of chopsticks. Then he went to the window to get some food.
When he arrived at the window, Zhao Hai looked at the dishes provided by the school. Strictly speaking, they were quite good. However, they were all home-cooked dishes. The quality of the dishes was comparable to that of an average family. However, there were a few dishes, meat and vegetables, which were quite good.
Naturally, the most important thing was that although the dishes were fixed, the rice wasn't. You can eat as much as you want.
The people who came to get food for Zhao Hai and the others were the staff of the school. They were all men, but they were all Soul Bearers. It can be seen that they have been in this line of work for quite some time. The Soul Bearers didn't dare offend the students. This was because the status of the students in the school wasn't simple. It wouldn't be good for them to offend anyone.
However, when Zhao Hai went to get food, the staff were startled. They unconsciously gave Zhao Hai more food. After thanking them, Zhao Hai ordered a big bowl of soup. Then he sat down with Ma Liang and the others and ate.
Zhao Hai and the others were eating. At this time, there weren't many people eating in the cafeteria. However, Zhao Hai was eating very happily. This made Ma Liang and the others surprised.
Ma Liang and the others used to eat in the cafeteria. However, they would go out to eat every seven days or so. Therefore, they didn't really like the food in the cafeteria.
Now that they saw Zhao Hai eating so happily, they couldn't help but stare. When Zhao Hai finished eating, Ma Liang couldn't help but ask Zhao Hai, "Crane Grass, what do you think about the food in the cafeteria? Is it delicious? "
Zhao Hai turned his head to look at Ma Liang and the others. Then he looked at the food that they didn't eat. Then he smiled faintly and said, "It's very good. There's also a lot of food. You guys are different from me. I'm a plant master, so I have to go to the wilderness to observe plants. A plant master who doesn't observe plant masters isn't a good plant master. Sometimes, I'll stay in the wilderness for several days, or even several months. During that time, not to mention this kind of food, just being able to eat is already very good."
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Ma Liang and the others nodded. They had also heard about plant masters. Plant masters in the academy would also spend a lot of time outside. Therefore, they could understand what Zhao Hai said.
Ma Liang looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Crane Grass, are you going out recently? I mean, are you going out to train? "
Zhao shook his head. "Then there's no need to worry. I might stay in the Academy for a while. After all, I just came back from a trial. I can go back to the Academy for a while, so there's no need to worry about it. What's wrong? Brother Ma, do you have something to say? "
Ma Liang shook his head and said, "It's nothing. It's just that I've been bored in the academy lately. I want to go out for a walk. If you're going out, then I'll go with you. Since you're not going out, then I'll wait for a while. When you want to go out, make sure to call me."
Zhao Hai nodded and didn't say anything else. Instead, he focused on the food in front of him. He ate a total of five servings before he was full. Then he drank the soup in one gulp before he put the food back on the table.
During the entire process, Ma Liang and the others sat on the side and watched. When they saw that Zhao Hai was finally full, they looked at each other in dismay. They now understood why Zhao Hai was able to grow so tall.
After leaving the dining hall, Ma Liang turned his head to Zhao Hai and said, "Crane Grass, do you have any plans for today?"
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "I don't. I borrowed a few books from the library this morning. I want to go back and take a look. Moreover, the Seventh Prince said that he would come looking for me. I don't know if he'll come or not, so I'll wait for him in my room. If he really comes and doesn't find me, then I'll lose face. Since I don't have anything to do, I'll go back to my room."
Ma Liang nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll also go out and have fun. We won't hold you back, let's go." After he said that, he waved his hand towards Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai also waved his hand and returned to his room.
After Zhao Hai left, Fat Monkey immediately turned to Ma Liang and said, "Brother Ma, why don't we go back? If the Seventh Prince comes, then we might be able to form a relationship with him. Wouldn't that be good?"
Ma Liang shook his head, then he sighed and said, "It's useless. The Seventh Prince doesn't like us. This can be seen when he ate with us yesterday. During the meal, how many words did he say to us? All of his attention was on Crane Grass. Although I don't know why the Seventh Prince likes Crane Grass, I think that it has something to do with Crane Grass's strength, as well as his background. No matter what, Crane Grass is still a member of the Hu Family. Naturally, the Seventh Prince wants to win over the Hu Family. If we go back, then we'll just be an eyesore.
If we don't go back, then it would be better if we don't go back. "When Fat Monkey and the others heard Ma Liang, they couldn't help but sigh. They felt that Ma Liang was right. The Seventh Prince didn't put them in his eyes. If they went back, then it would only cause the Seventh Prince's disgust.
Zhao Hai returned to his room, but he didn't stay inside. Instead, he took a book and walked out of his room. He went to a pine tree next to the Pine Forest Residence and sat down. Then he quietly looked at the book in his hand.
Zhao Hai liked to stay with plants. Staying with plants would make him feel more relaxed. Time passed by little by little. While Zhao Hai was immersed in his book, the pine tree suddenly reminded him that someone was coming. Zhao Hai quickly looked up and saw Dao Baiying standing not too far away from him. Beside him was Lang Shiping, who was inseparable from him.
When Dao Baiying saw that Zhao Hai had noticed him, he didn't care. He just smiled at Zhao Hai and said, "Brother Crane Grass, you're very comfortable under the pine tree. You're very serious. Let me see what book you have." Then he went to Zhao Hai's side. When he saw the book in Zhao Hai's hand, Dao Baiying couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Brother Crane Grass, how can you read these books? Didn't you read these books when you were in the Hu Clan? "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I've read them, but they weren't written by one person. I was bored, so I took a few books from the library to see if they were written by one person. I wanted to see if there were any differences. Hehe, but it's not important. Brother Dao, you said that you would come looking for me today, so you really did come. What do you want from me? "
Dao Baiying smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to go out and play with you. Today, we want to go hunting. How about it? Are you interested? If you are, then we can go out and play for a few days. This time, I'm going to go deep into the mountains. "
When Zhao Hai heard Dao Baiying, he couldn't help but knit his brows and said, "Going out for a few days? That's not good, I just came to the academy. If I leave for a few days, then it wouldn't be good. Also, I'm afraid that my sister won't approve of it. "
Dao Baiying smiled and said, "It's fine, the academy doesn't care about you. As for Miss Xian 'er, let's go and find her. I'll talk to her personally. Let's go." Then he pulled Zhao Hai and left.
Zhao Hai quickly said, "Brother Dao, wait a moment, I'll put the book back first." When Dao Baiying heard Zhao Hai, he let go of his hand. Zhao Hai ran back to his room and put the book back. Then he came out of his room and followed Dao Baiying to Hu Xian 'er's room.
Hu Xian 'er's room was for the girls. Even Dao Baiying couldn't enter. Zhao Hai could only follow the rules and register in front of the door. He said that he was looking for Hu Xian' er and then asked the gatekeeper to call Hu Xian 'er out.
Not long after Zhao Hai finished speaking, Hu Xian 'er brought Ling' er out of the courtyard. When she saw Zhao Hai and Dao Baiying standing beside him, she couldn't help but frown. Then she turned to Dao Baiying and gave her a salute. Then she turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Crane Grass, what's wrong? Is there something wrong? It's fine, if there's anything, just tell Big Sister. "
When Zhao Hai heard Hu Xian 'er, he knew that Hu Xian' er had misunderstood. Hu Xian 'er heard his conversation with Yang Defeng yesterday. Hu Xian' er also knew about the relationship between Yang Defeng and Dao Baiying. Now that she saw Dao Baiying come with Zhao Hai, she thought that Dao Baiying was looking for trouble with Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai quickly said, "Big Sister Xian 'er, it's nothing. Today, Brother Dao came looking for me and said that he wanted to go hunting with me. Moreover, it would take a few days. I just wanted to ask you if I can go hunting with Brother Dao."
Hearing Zhao Hai, Hu Xian 'er couldn't help but stare, then she turned to Dao Baiying. Dao Baiying cupped his fist towards Hu Xian' er and said, "Miss Xian 'er, yesterday I met Brother Crane Grass and felt like old friends. Today I wanted to go out with him, but he said that since he just arrived at the Academy, it wouldn't be good for him to go out. If he wants to go out, he would need your permission. So I came here with a thick face, hoping that Miss Xian' er would agree. You can rest assured, although I only met Crane Grass for a short time, we felt like old friends at first sight. I will not let anyone harm Crane Grass.
Although Dao Baiying's words were sincere, Hu Xian 'er still had some doubts. However, since Dao Baiying said so, she couldn't refute. Hu Xian' er gave Dao Baiying a salute and said, "Since it's like this, Xian 'er naturally has no reason to disagree. I ask Seventh Highness to take care of Crane Grass. If he did anything wrong, I ask Seventh Highness to forgive him. After all, he's still a child."
Dao Baiying smiled and said, "Miss Xian 'er can rest assured. I'll certainly take good care of Crane Grass."
Hu Xian 'er nodded, then she turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Crane Grass, after you go out with Seventh Highness, be obedient. Don't run around and don't mess around. Be careful. Go." Zhao Hai understood Hu Xian 'er's meaning. Hu Xian' er wanted him to be careful of Dao Baiying. If Zhao Hai couldn't understand this, then he really should die.
Zhao Hai cupped his fist towards Dao Baiying and said, "Yes. Elder Sister Xian 'er can rest assured. I'll be careful. Then I'll be going." Hu Xian' er nodded. Then Zhao Hai turned around and left with Dao Baiying.
Hu Xian 'er looked at Zhao Hai's back, her brows wrinkled even more. Then she turned to Ling' er and said, "You go out and tell Uncle Zhong about this matter. Tell him to pass the news back to the family so that they can be prepared at any time."
Ling 'er looked at Hu Xian' er and said, "Young Miss, can there be any changes?"
Hu Xian 'er shook her head and said, "It's hard to say right now. I don't know what Seventh Highness means. You go and inform them. It's better to be prepared than not." Ling' er nodded, then she turned around and left.
