At lunchtime, Gu Lingling pulled Hao Lianlian and walked out. By the time Liu Miao went looking for her, she was nowhere to be found.

Liu Miao stomped her feet in anger.

Her family had many siblings, so bringing her food was already quite good. Although Gu Lingling wasn’t favored at home, her lunch could never compare to Gu Juan’s, yet it was much better than hers.

So every noon, Liu Miao would go and freeload Gu Lingling’s food.

”Lingling, have some of mine.” Hao Lianlian opened her lunchbox and pushed it in front of Gu Lingling, ”I’ve already eaten at home.”

It was steamed meat with rice flour.

Nowadays, you need meat coupons to buy meat. Hao Dacheng only has this one granddaughter, and he has a salary, so every month he’ll buy some meat to make steamed meat with rice flour to nourish his granddaughter’s body.

”Thank you, Lianlian.” Gu Lingling didn’t stand on ceremony with Hao Lianlian and, while picking a small piece of steamed meat, gave the vegetables from her own bowl to Hao Lianlian.

These days, Gu Chunhai has been home, so today there were even bits of minced meat and vegetable leaves in her lunch.

Usually, it would only be pickled vegetables.

However, Wang Meili’s cooking skills are really not great.

Gu Lingling tasted a bite, frowning as she thought.

The two of them shared and happily finished their lunch.

Hao Lianlian was a very cheerful girl and had already forgiven Gu Lingling during the meal.

”Gu Lingling, why didn’t you wait for me to eat lunch?” As soon as they got back to the classroom, Liu Miao was already there, her face dark, waiting for her.

”Strange, why should I wait for you to eat?” Gu Lingling put her lunchbox in her backpack and asked with a smile.

”You... you always eat with me.” Liu Miao felt that today’s Gu Lingling was different.

”And then let you eat my lunch?” Gu Lingling said sarcastically, ”But your family’s pickled vegetables are really terrible, and they’re not even washed properly; they’re always sandy.”

In this era, vegetables are very precious, even pickled ones are washed cleanly.

Sand? How lazy must this family be!

Liu Miao’s face turned red. She didn’t know what was going on; today Gu Lingling suddenly became sharp-tongued, and she couldn’t handle it at all.

”Lingling, do you not want to be friends with me anymore?” Liu Miao played her trump card.

Gu Lingling didn’t have many friends in the class, so she was particularly afraid of the two of them not wanting her anymore.

”Why... why are you looking at me like that?” Gu Lingling didn’t speak, just stood there carefully examining Liu Miao, making her feel uncomfortable all over because of her gaze.

It was as if... she was stripped naked by her.

”Just thinking how thick-skinned some people can be!” Gu Lingling said disdainfully, ”As for your question, I can give you a definite answer right now.”

By this time, most of the classmates had finished lunch and returned to the classroom. Seeing this, they all gathered around.

For some reason, Liu Miao suddenly didn’t want Gu Lingling to answer her anymore.

”I don’t want to be friends with you at all, so please stay away from me in the future,” Gu Lingling said plainly, ”I was foolish before, but I won’t be anymore.”

Liu Miao panicked. If she’s not with Gu Lingling, who will she freeload from in the future?

And Gu Juan just likes to see her bully Gu Lingling; otherwise, Gu Juan wouldn’t bother with her.

”Lingling, don’t listen to Hao Lianlian’s nonsense. Being with her will give you a cleft lip; she’s an unlucky person, and whoever’s with her will have bad luck.” Liu Miao said frantically, grabbing Gu Lingling’s hand.

”Liu Miao, are you spreading feudal superstitions?” Gu Lingling said coldly.
