After dinner.

Melissa and Klein came to the apartment next door to find Chiba. They asked the landlord and went to the room where he lived. However, the door was locked and he was clearly not at home.

The brother and sister waited downstairs for more than half an hour, but they couldn't wait for others to come back and had to go back to rest.

……

The next morning.

As usual, Melissa said goodbye to Klein after breakfast, reluctant to take the public carriage and walked all the way to school.

Originally, she thought she would meet Qianye on the way to school this morning, but every time she looked back, she could not see his figure. She waited for a long time at the school gate but did not see him, which disappointed her all morning again.

Where is he going?

Melissa walked into the classroom, talking to herself. She came to the classroom and sat down in her seat, but she couldn't calm down. His appearance was all in her mind.

Even her classmates greeted her, but she ignored them.

until……

The teacher walked into the classroom, stood on the podium, glanced at the 69 students in the class and said: "Good morning, classmates!"

"Hello teacher!"

"sit down!"

People sit down.

Bosani then said: "Today is another good day, a new day and a new beginning. I hope everyone will study hard and prosper."

Melissa glanced out the window, wondering if Chiba came to school today.

……

Until noon, when Melissa walked into the cafeteria, she didn't see Chiba. She just ordered a cheap snack and ate it out of boredom.

A piece of bread, a tomato.

Although it has no nutrition, she can only choose the cheapest one to save money.

Melissa did not eat in the cafeteria, but carried a plate to the grove behind the school and sat on a bench under the shade to eat alone.

At this time, a man came and sat down next to her. She did not raise her head and continued to eat with her head down.

Suddenly a hand reached out to her lunch box and placed two chicken drumsticks inside.

Melissa was stunned, what happened?

If someone hands me a chicken leg, who could it be?

She didn't know that this had never happened before.

It wasn't until she turned her head to look at him that she was stunned. She had only half eaten the bread in her mouth, and looked at him with slightly red eyes.

There are crumbs in the corner of the mouth.

He is none other than Chiba.

Chiba noticed the crumbs at the corner of Melissa's mouth, took out a white handkerchief from the pocket of her black windbreaker and brought it to her mouth, helping her wipe away the crumbs: "Well, it will look better this way. "

After Melissa reacted, she quickly lowered her head and her face turned red again. No one had ever been so gentle and considerate to her since she was a child.

Apart from her family, Chiba is the first outsider, so she is not only shy, but also warm and touching.

"Mr. Qian... Qianba, where did the chicken legs come from?"

Melissa asked.

Her brown eyes wandered, not daring to look at him. Her face was slightly shy and red, as cautious as a mimosa.

Qianye smiled, reached out and took off the shabby gauze hat she was wearing, and rubbed her head with her right hand: "Silly girl, you don't care where it came from, you're still worried that I won't poison it, it's still hot. Come and try how it tastes, it won’t taste good if it’s cold.”

hmm~

Melissa nodded so obediently. She didn't refuse, and she didn't know how to refuse. The key was that she couldn't refuse. Although she felt it was wrong to eat other people's food like this, she just couldn't refuse him. Her right hand seemed not to obey her orders, so she picked up a chicken leg and put it in He took a bite in his mouth.

The chicken and gravy, oil, water, fragrance, and umami flavor filled her taste buds, making her extremely satisfied and whetting her appetite.

It was unimaginable that a chicken drumstick could satisfy her. It had been so long since she had eaten chicken drumsticks, and she actually couldn’t remember.

While eating the chicken drumsticks, Melissa secretly squinted at Chiba and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he wasn't looking at her.

Chiba looked at the shabby gauze hat in her hand, which should have been left over from her mother's lifetime, so she continued to wear it. There were a few small holes in some places, which didn't look very elegant.

An idea came to me. I happened to have various needles and threads in the space of my ring, so it would not be a problem to help her repair it.

With my own ability, it is not a problem to help her completely restore this worn-out gauze hat. By the way, as the icing on the cake, embroidering a few small red flowers will make it more unique and beautiful.

Melissa finished one chicken drumstick and closed the lunch box. She planned to keep the remaining drumstick and take it home for Klein to eat after school.

"Melissa, let me mend your gauze hat for you to see if it suits you?" Chiba said, holding out the gauze hat in front of her.
