When Nina and Chester walked out of the library, Michelle was standing by the door and waving at the two of them.
"Nini, here."
"Let's go, Chester. It's almost dinner time." Nina took Chester to meet Michelle and planned to go to a nearby supermarket to buy groceries.
Michelle was holding a white paper bag in her hand. When Chester approached her, she handed the bag to him and said, "Here you go, Chester."
Chester stared at the bag and made no move to take it. There was confusion mixed in with the gratitude in his eyes.
"I did nothing to merit any reward."
Michelle grinned, revealing two cute canine teeth. "You're so cute!"
"Chester, you can take the gift from Aunt Michelle." Hearing Nina's words, Chester reached out his hand to take the bag and politely bowed. "Thank you, Aunt Michelle."
There was no expression on his face—not even the usual excitement children showed when then receive gifts. Even so, Chester's disciplined demeanor made Michelle happy.
"Little Chester, you are so cute. I like you so much. Oh, and you shouldn't call me Aunt Michelle—my cousin and your brother are dating." Michelle reached out to pinch his face, but Chester didn't really like
"Okay. I'll—"
"I'll go get it," Michelle interjected and turned around to grab several packs of instant noodles.
Other people were waiting for them. Then, Nina saw a girl, a classmate of hers, who stalked toward the shelves angrily.
"Excuse me, where are the instant noodles?" she asked one of the staff with a feral grin on her face. "You know, those crispy ones that will get break if you kneel on them."
"Instant noodles? Kneel on them?" The saleswoman was confused.
The girl gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, I'm buying them for my boyfriend so that he can kneel on them. Don't worry, I won't waste food. He will have to eat all of the noodles if he breaks them while kneeling."
"Ah, come with me. I'll take you to them," said the saleswoman with a stunned look.
The girl greeted Nina with a smile and left with a whole bag of instant noodles.
Nina's eyes went wide.
"If he breaks the instant noodles while kneeling, he will have to eat them all. Thus, he has to keep some distance between the noodles and his knees. That would be very tiring." Nina's eyes lit up. "She's so smart."
Everyone else was speechless.
They suddenly had a mental image of John's future.
