126 Meeting An Old Classmate

Du Yue had long since realized that He Xing was not a person who had high standards for his clothes and living environment. The only thing he liked the most and could not lack was good food. Fortunately, he worked out regularly, so no matter how much he ate, he did not show any signs of gaining weight. Instead, he ate more and trained more, so he had a body full of muscles.

“Alright, let’s start now!” Du Yue had witnessed He Xing’s eagerness to learn in the past month. As long as she taught it to him once, He Xing did not need her help to make it a second time. Not only did he remember the steps clearly, but even the taste of the dish would get better and better each time.

French fries were easy to make. The potatoes were peeled, cut into strips, and washed a few times to remove the starch. Then, they needed to boil a pot of water and put the strips of potato in after the water was boiling. They added a small amount of salt and boiled the potatoes for about three minutes before taking them out to drain and letting them cool. They used a paper towel to pat off the water on the surface of the potato strips, then covered them with a layer of starch. After the water in the pot was poured out and wiped dry, oil was added. When the oil was hot, the potatoes were put in. They were deep-fried until they were slightly yellow and taken out for them to cool a little. They heated the oil again and re-fried the fries until they were golden in color.

The finished fries were divided into two portions. Tomato sauce was added to one portion, and salt and pepper were added to the other. He Xing picked up one each and gave them a try. He smiled at Du Yue. “Potatoes taste good no matter how you cook them.”

Du Yue nodded. She had always liked to eat potatoes.

“You’ve been cooped up at home for so long. Do you want to go out with me for some fresh air?” He Xing asked after eating some.

Be it in her previous life or this life, Du Yue had always thought of herself as a complete homebody. She had not left her house for a month, but she did not feel bored at all. Before Du Yue could answer, He Xing threw out an invitation that she could not refuse. “Don’t you like my submachine gun? I can use this opportunity to teach you.”

When she heard this, Du Yue immediately retracted her words of rejection. “Sure! Then let’s go out for a walk! When do you wanna go?”

“It’s getting late. Let’s go tomorrow morning!”

“Alright! I’ll listen to you!”



Early the next morning, Du Yue woke up half an hour earlier than usual. After washing up, she dressed up neatly and walked out of the house with her mountaineering bag that was half the height of a human. As soon as she opened the door, she saw He Xing coming out of the opposite door. The two of them smiled at each other and went downstairs side by side.

On the first floor, just as she was about to walk down the staircase, she heard the door open behind her. The two of them were not curious about who opened the door. Just as they were about to continue walking, they were stopped by a male voice.

“Du Yue? Is that you?” Du Yue turned around in confusion when she heard her name.

“You know me?”

Other than He Xing, Du Yue had not had much contact with anyone else since she arrived at the base. Now that she heard this unfamiliar man call her by her name, Du Yue was more vigilant than she was confused.

“It’s really you, Du Yue. I thought I had the wrong person!” the man said in surprise, and the pace of his voice quickened. “I’m Wu Di!”

Wu Di? Du Yue could not help but frown. She could not recall the name.

“Have you forgotten? I was your high school classmate! At that time, I was sitting next to the trash can, and our classmates jokingly called me the manager of the trash can. Don’t you remember?”

Du Yue recalled something when she heard the nickname ‘manager of the trash can’. Perhaps it was because it had only been four years since Wu Di and Du Yue had studied under the same roof, which was why he still remembered Du Yue. However, to Du Yue, it was something that had happened 14 years ago. It was normal that she could not recall him for a while.

Du Yue did not feel embarrassed at all. The wariness in her eyes was still there. “Why are you looking for me?”

“You remember who I am, right?” Wu Di said with a look of surprise. He quickly ran over and opened his arms to give Du Yue a big hug. “In the blink of an eye, four years have passed. Under such circumstances, I thought I would never have the chance to meet my former classmates again. I didn’t expect to see you again…”

Before Wu Di could hug her, Du Yue had already pulled out a dagger from her waist. Du Yue held the handle of the dagger and pressed the bottom of it against Wu Di’s chest. “What are you doing?”

“I… didn’t plan on doing anything!” Wu Di had an innocent look on his face. “I just thought that since we haven’t seen each other for a long time, I wanted to hug you. Don’t be so resistant. I’m not a bad person!”
