Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

Chapter 274: Chapter 274: Which Is More Important, Breaking Off the Engagement or Finding the Real Culprit?

That’s good, luckily everything’s within the Galaxy Family.

Otherwise, she’d be at a loss.

As soon as class was over on Friday, she arrived as promised.

With only a few days left until the final exams, the Medical College exams were notoriously difficult. In the tense atmosphere of revision, it was rare to come out and relax and everyone was very happy.

Of course, they didn’t forget to gossip a bit about Feng Liang being sentenced to death, and Qin Wenrou who had taken sick leave and hadn’t returned to class for several days.

”These two are so messed up. Who infected whom? It’s like dog eat dog, impossible to tell.”

”Whenever I think about the flower vote back then, when Class 1’s idiots swayed me into voting for Qin Wenrou, I just want to travel back in time and strangle myself.”

”Yeah, back then I really was blind. Makes me want to gouge out my eyes!”

Qin Xin listened to everyone’s comments indifferently, sipping a small mouthful of coffee.

After checking the time, she said softly, ”I’ll be right back.”

She settled the bill and took the elevator straight to the top floor.

Unlike the internet-famous café her classmates booked, the top floor featured a club-style rotating restaurant, limited daily to serve high-end clientele of the Galaxy Family.

It’s generally impossible to book.

Nalan Ye Jue choosing this restaurant was a bit of a surprise to her.

After all, seeing him cook personally at his home last time, she felt he was surprisingly down-to-earth.

But dining in a club restaurant immediately made her aware of his distinguished status as a major CEO.

Upon entering the club, she was even more surprised.

The restaurant seats, usually fiercely contested by the city’s elite, were empty, almost deserted!

The restaurant’s décor seemed slightly different too.

Perhaps...more refined than before. Not sure if it was specially changed upon request.

”Miss Qin, this way, please—”

Following the attendant’s lead, she walked inside.

She saw the only customer sitting in a wheelchair facing away from the door in front of the large glass window.

The attendant sensibly exited.

In the large restaurant, only she and Nalan Ye Jue were left!

Did he book the whole place?

What an extravagant setup.

She couldn’t help but recall that this man even booked the whole cinema when watching a movie.

How did she originally think he was down-to-earth?

”You’re here? Sit.” The man heard the sound, slowly turned the wheelchair, and said warmly to her, ”I’ve ordered some dishes, not sure if they suit your taste, feel free to try.”

Qin Xin took a breath and sat down.

Just some casual dishes?

At this club, each dish starts at a price with four zeros.

Nothing here could be casual.

She drank a small sip of the dried scallop and sea cucumber soup and put down the spoon: ”Mr. Nalan, I want...”

Nalan Ye Jue politely asked, ”Is there something wrong with the dishes I’ve ordered? I can have the kitchen remake them.”

Qin Xin quickly waved her hand: ”No need to trouble yourself.”

She picked up the spoon again. Well, to avoid wasting food, she’d continue drinking the soup.

Nalan Ye Jue served her some dishes, casually chatting, covering topics from astronomy to geography, even including art and medical skills. He also showed her his recent photos of the starry sky and clouds.

The dazzling and mysterious midnight sky, with large clusters of winter snow clouds, was very comforting.

Qin Xin’s mood gradually calmed down, unknowingly having eaten quite a bit.

As the last dessert was about to be served, her plan to withdraw from the engagement had yet to begin.

She was still deliberating her words.

Her phone vibrated.

An urgent message from Hong Jingtian appeared in flamboyant red [URGENT]: ”QUEEN, the surveillance within ten miles around the Ice Lake near Imperial University that you asked me to investigate, I’ve finally finished it...”

This little cutie, always reporting the most critical issues at times like these!

Reflecting on it, canceling the engagement and searching for the real culprit seemed that the latter was more pressing.

Qin Xin covered her face: ”I need to go to the restroom.”

Nalan Ye Jue smiled knowingly and nodded gentlemanly.
