Chapter 100 You Should Thank Mr. Herbart
Chapter 100 You Should Thank Mr. Herbart
nche returned to the dining room and sat down a little lost, but identally locked eyes with Louis. nche averted her eyes and served a bowl of
porridge.
"Where have you been?" Louis scowled as if he''d seen through something
nche took a sip of the fresh porridge and nced up at Louis.
"Went to the bathroom, didn''t I say so?"
Louis’ sharp eyes narrowed: "Just went to the washroom. It''s running to the washroom to meet someone you want to see, right?”
"You followed me?”
Louis''s face is like frost. His eyes are not bad. Just now Henry was dining next to him, and he is not blind, couldn''t he see?
Big brother''s seat had just been empty. Louis was out of his mind for a while. then nche went to the washroom. He had a hunch that nche was
going after big brother.
Facing nche''s upset questioning, Louis’ face was gloomy. nche again felt that Louis had nothing to do, scooped up a spoonful of porridge and
ate a mouthful of it sullenly.
"If you like big brother so much, why didn''t you just marry him in the first ce, since he happen to be unmarried.”
nche blinked swiftly. It sounded easy to understand, but why did she feel difficult to digest it?
Was he angry because she had gone to see the big brother on her own?
No, by the questioning attitude, he must thought she had an affair with the big brother.
She had only gone to see Big Brother to help with her grandmother''s operation. It wasn''t like she had done anything wrong to him. nche retorted
without a trace of anger.
"That big brother is not married, but he has a fiancée, Miss Huang."
“You mean if he doesn’t have a fiancée, you really want to marry him."
nche:"?"
He was deliberately pissing her off. How could he say something like this with no possibility at all.
nche simply buried her head and ate, no longer paying attention to Louis.
This fresh shrimp congee was too fresh and tasted excellent. nche ordered another bowl of fresh shrimp congee and decided to take advantage of
the lunch break to bring it to her grandmother.
Louis left his seat with a cold face and went to the washroom
nche nced at the cold back, pouted a little, and continued eating her congee.
Sam looked back to make sure Louis had gone far away and turned back. He was worried because Mr. Herbart was really angry this time.
He could feel that Mr. Herbart cared a little about Mrs. Herbart, but Mrs. Herbart didn’t respond at all.
Sam made up his mind and looked steadily at nche.
"Mrs. Herbart, is the porridge good?"
nche paused. Did Sam meant he want to eat it too?
"It''s delicious, do you want some too? I''ll serve you a bowl."
nche would never forget Sam''s intercession on her behalf, and was ready to serve Sam the congee.
"No, I want to talk to Mrs. Herbart about something."
Seeing Sam''s solemn face, and his carefully ncing back, nche was slightly stunned.
"Mr. Turner, go ahead."
"It''s like this. I actually didn''t even see Cathy hit Mrs. Herbart with a rock.”
nche was taken aback.
"Then why do you say that? Do yau think it''s because I''m a good person and deliberately bear false witness on my behalf?”
"It was Mr. Herbart who told me to say that to herdyship, and it should have been Mr. Herbart who saw it, and you can thank Mr. Herbart if you want
to."
nche''s snow-clean face twitched slightly, and Louis was so angry that he jammed a hand round her neck . and almost strangled her; he had not
seen it at all.
By the way, when he''d found her in the orchard with a bruise on her head, he''d asked instead if Cathy had hit her.
Did he guess?
Sam added: "Mrs. Herbart, you mustn''t tell Mr. Herbart that I said that."
A big question mark popped into nche''s head. Why? She was about to ask a follow-up question, but noticed Louising back.
Louis came back to get his coat.
"Did you eat well?”
nche touched her stomach, feeling full, and put down her spoon.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Sam got up. "I''ll get the check."
Louis and Sam walked out for a while and noticed that nche, whe should have stayed on as a waitress, had followed them
nche guessed that Louis didn’t understand and raised the porridge in her hand.
"It''s break time already, and I''m going to the hospital to bring Grandma her porridge."

"Get in, give you a lift.”
It was Louis.
nche locked down the driveway, which wasn''t a good ce to get a taxi at this hour, and without any pretence at all, got in
The two were silent the whole way, while nche kept thinking about what Sam had said to her, that it was Louis she should be thanking
nche craned her head and nced at the side of Louis'' face which was angr but kinda icy, and nche made several attempts to speak, but
nothing came out.
"Here we are.” The car stopped, but the passenger was still sitting motionless
"Oh." nche went to pull on the handlebar, but then twisted her head around in resolve.
“Thanks.”
Louis frowned slightly and lowered the window, "Thanks for what?”
nche snapped back to Sam''sst reminder to never let Louis know about this.
"Thanks, for driving me to the hospital.”
nche getout of the car and
noticed Louis getting out as well-
What was he doing down here?" ~
nche couldn''t help but guess,

"Are you going to follow me up to see Grandma?" nche didn''t realise that she had asked the question in a very light tone.
Louis was as tall and leggy as a walking male model, and Grandma would be very pleased to see the talented Louis.
Grandma''s greatest wish was for

nche''s question had caught Louis out. She only saw Louis’ gaze. withdrawn from a corner of the car park, frozen for a moment.
"You go up first."
"Oh!"
To nche''s chagrin, it turned out she was overthinking it.
