CHAPTER 34: CHAPTER 34: WHO COULD RESIST SUCH DELICIOUS FOOD?

Back at the canteen, there was still a long queue in front of the "Jiang Family Steamed Buns" store’s window, and the hall inside was packed with people, bustling and lively.

As soon as Jiang Yu and Lu Shuwu entered the door, sharp-eyed students noticed them:

"Hey, the boss is back, he’s back!"

The students instantly crowded around them, surrounding Jiang Yu and Lu Shuwu, and eagerly began to ask:

"Boss, is that student alright? We were really scared!"

"What exactly happened? One moment everything was fine, and then suddenly it was like that. So terrifying!"

"Why didn’t that student come back with you? Surely it’s not something serious?"

"..."

"With so many of you speaking at once, how can I answer everything?"

Jiang Yu raised both hands, pressing them down slightly, and said with a smile,

"Everyone, please quiet down and let me speak first.

The student just now is fine; the doctors at the campus hospital checked him out, and it turns out he simply ate too much, which caused stomach discomfort and pain.

After the doctors administered medication to induce vomiting, the student is alright now, took some stomach medicine, and went back to rest."

As soon as he finished speaking, the students watching all breathed a sigh of relief and laughed:

"I knew it, after eating steamed buns and hot and sour soup for days, how could there be a problem?"

"Think about it, so many people were eating, but only that student had stomach ache; it must be his own issue."

"That student is something; eating so many steamed buns and drinking a big bowl of hot and sour soup, tsk tsk, I wonder how he managed to swallow it all."

"..."

"Students, students! Let me say one more thing!"

Jiang Yu listened for a while, thought for a moment, and still spoke up,

"From this incident, I need to remind everyone once again, no matter how delicious the food is, you mustn’t overindulge. Your health is most important."

"But, who can resist such delicious steamed buns and hot and sour soup?"

From the crowd, a weak voice sounded.

Hearing this, the students couldn’t help but burst into laughter, and then they began to disperse, those queuing continued to queue, and those having breakfast continued with their meal.

Previously, they were mainly worried if the student with stomach pain was alright, not suspecting any problem with the steamed buns and hot and sour soup sold at the store.

Now, after Jiang Yu’s confirmation, they felt even more at ease, and their appetite increased considerably.

"Boss, don’t bother persuading; your food is so delicious. It’s not just them; even we, who eat it every day, can easily overeat."

Standing nearby, Lu Shuwu smirked and said,

"It’s never the principle that persuades people, but the south wall."

"That’s quite an interesting saying."

Jiang Yu turned his head, glanced at him in surprise, and said with a smile,

"It’s not just them, actually, we’re the same; sometimes we don’t turn back until we hit a dead end."

The two chatted casually, turned around, and went back into the store to continue their busy work.

...

The canteen hall continued to bustle with people coming and going, never quieting down.

"Four baskets of steamed buns, four bowls of hot and sour soup! Thank you!"

Liu Sili swiped her campus card, which had been ready in her hand, near the card machine, then quickly put it away, freeing her hand to load two baskets of steamed buns and two bowls of soup onto a tray, swiftly walking to an empty seat nearby.

Behind her was another girl with thick glasses, holding the remaining two baskets of buns and soup, closely following her.

In the seating area, two other girls were waiting, and upon seeing Liu Sili and her friend coming, they quickly stood up to help place the steamed buns and hot and sour soup on the table.

Once she sat down, Liu Sili finally let out a long sigh of relief, her little face flushed.

Since the day school began, when she and her dad accidentally discovered the "Immortal Cuisine" steamed buns and hot and sour soup in the canteen, she would seize every opportunity to come and buy some, satisfying her cravings.

As for her old nemesis at Modu University, Cheng Jiayi, she didn’t care anymore.

Because after she sent the video of the second canteen to her that day, Cheng Jiayi began "playing dead," not responding to messages no matter what.

Whenever she thought she might lose, she’d use the "play dead" trick; even after graduating high school, she remained childish, having made little progress.

Cheng Siyi was a thing of the past; university life was a new starting point.

Liu Sili quickly discovered that besides herself, the other three sisters in the dormitory also found the steamed buns and hot and sour soup delicious and, like her, fell in love at the first bite.

Sharing the same hobbies and interests, the four girls who had just arrived at university and happened to gather in the same dormitory quickly became familiar and close-knit.

"Hmm, the steamed buns are really delicious, biting into them is aromatic, and most importantly, they aren’t greasy at all!"

Liu Sili used her chopsticks to put a steamed bun into a spoon, carefully drank the soup inside, and her eyes squinted with happiness.

"Yes, when I first arrived at school a few days ago and tasted these buns, I was amazed!"

Said a tall girl, nodding repeatedly,

"Honestly, I grew up in the North and have eaten many steamed buns, none as good as these!"

Another sweet-looking long-haired girl said:

"Hehe, I just think our school is great, inviting such a remarkable person to sell food at the canteen; the students here are really blessed."

Just then, the last girl who hadn’t spoken yet looked up and sighed, saying,

"Guys, don’t be happy too soon; soon we won’t be able to eat steamed buns for a while..."

"Ah? Who says?"

"Why can’t we eat them, what happened?"

"Linlin, don’t be cryptic, tell us quickly!"

"..."

"The news in the class group, don’t you guys check it?"

The girl named "Linlin" gently flicked her short ear-length hair and said with a surprised look,

"Starting tomorrow, we freshmen will have military training, lasting for two weeks. Check the military training schedule; the meal times almost perfectly overlap with the bun store’s business hours, leaving us no time to queue in advance."

Upon hearing this, Liu Sili and the others turned pale, immediately pulling out their phones to check.

As they checked, the three girls almost burst into tears.

"My God! Breakfast time is from 7 to 7:30, precisely when the bun store opens, but before 7, we’re still doing morning exercises..."

Liu Sili’s face was full of despair as she muttered,

"Dinner is just like breakfast, only half an hour.

The only chance is lunch, but unless we skip the break, we’ll have to run over to queue immediately after dismissal..."

"With so many freshmen, we may not even get a chance; everyone’s exhausted from military training and wants some good food for comfort."

"Oh my God! It means we won’t eat steamed buns or hot and sour soup for half a month; how will I survive?"

"..."
