Chapter 286

Lin Jiage continued strolling around the examination hall for a while before he finally stopped at the podium . He snatched away the examination papers which were already crumpled after serving as Lu Benlai's elbow cushion for hours and began browsing through them .
To think that I'd actually succumb to temptation and fall to the dark side . . . Wait a minute, the issue isn't really that severe . At most, it could only be considered as an 'unspoken rule' right?
While reading through the papers and memorizing the answers in his heart, Lin Jiage's mind wandered all over the place .
While the 'unspoken rules' usually consist of a sexual relationship, I fell after the blinking of the eye? If someone found out about this, won't I seem a little too easy?
And again, would Soft Bun need to use 'unspoken rules' on me? At most, this could only be considered as . . . the husband going along with the wife . . .
Lin Jiage looked through the answers for the multiple choice questions and filled in the blanks . When he was certain that Shi Yao would be able to obtain eighty marks at the very minimum with the answers he'd gathered thus far, only then did he finally take a pencil from the table, tossed Lu Benlai with an "I'm going to the bathroom", and walked out of the examination hall .

He quickly entered a bathroom and locked himself in a cubicle before taking out Shi Yao's note from his pockets .
Despite living for so many years, this is my first time helping someone else to cheat . It's pretty exciting just thinking about it . . .
With such thoughts in mind, Lin Jiage unfolded the paper note and picked up the pencil, but just as he was preparing to write down the answers on the paper, he suddenly saw a sentence scribbled over it: [I still owe you a meal…]
??????
This wasn't in line with the script . . . Isn't Soft Bun supposed to ask for my help to cheat in the exam? Why would she suddenly talk about food?
Taken aback, Lin Jiage read on .

[ . . . It just so happens that I don't have any classes this afternoon . If you're free, why don't I treat you after this?]
[If you agree to it, please tick the food you prefer from the choice of selections below:]
[A (Mala Stir-fry Pot), B (Crayfish), C (Skewers), D (Hot pot), E (Beijing Cuisine), F (Hunan Cuisine), G (Cantonese Cuisine)]
Isn't passing notes around in the examination hall supposed to be about cheating? Yet, to think that it's actually a multiple choice question about food!
So, the stuff that she was writing down so seriously while he 'awkwardly conversed' with Lu Benlai was actually this?
Having been tightly slapped by reality, Lin Jiage didn't know whether he should laugh or cry . He stood in the bathroom for a long time before he eventually consoled himself: I'm not the one who did something wrong . It's just that Soft Bun is too different from normal people . . .

Lin Jiage sighed deeply with a hint of helplessness in his tone before writing on the note with the pencil: [I choose H (Anything)]
While folding the paper up once more, Lin Jiage hesitated for a moment before tearing out the portion which he'd written . Then, he carefully folded the rest of the paper which contained Shi Yao's handwriting before placing it back into his pocket .
This seems to be the first note that Soft Bun has given me . . . Better keep it for commemorative purposes . . .
When Lin Jiage returned to the examination hall, he noticed that Shi Yao had continued scribbling distractedly on a paper, just like she did when he was awkwardly conversing with Lu Benlai earlier .
Since she wasn't copying down her notes, that must mean that her distracted scribbling wasn't an act . . . But then, what in the world is she scribbling on the paper then?
While Lin Jiage was feeling intrigued by the matter, he had somehow already arrived right in front of Shi Yao's table .
Sensing Lin Jiage's presence, Shi Yao lifted her head to look at him .
Lin Jiage casually tossed the paper onto her table, and before leaving, he shot a glance at the work beneath Shi Yao's pen .
This look nearly made him choke on his saliva . . .
Soft Bun wasn't scribbling randomly but doodling . . . She had filled the entire draft paper with food that could be eaten—strawberries, apples, oranges, ice cream, sweets . . .
Soft Bun's rationality had been devoured by her own gluttony!!
~'Unspoken rules' have a slightly different ring around it when used in Chinese . It basically refers to the darker aspects of the conventional norms in an industry, for example, celebrities sleeping together with investors for media resources, so on and so forth .

Cantonese cuisine, otherwise known as Yue cuisine, refers to the cuisine in the Guangdong Province of China . They believe in a balanced flavor in the dishes, and that food shouldn't be too greasy .
