Chapter 64 The Black Bag
The clothes were all packed in a black bag, ensuring that no one else could see what was inside.
“Nolan? Where did you run off to just now?”

At this moment, Henry had already rushed back from outside. He had gone to the school’s vicinity to buy some snacks, including bread, milk,.and hamburgers.
Carrying two bags of snacks, he glanced at the large black plastic bag by Eliza’s bedside.
Henry was taken aback. “No way, you’ve already bought everything? You should have told me. With so many things, when will Eliza ever finish eating them all when she wakes up?”
As he spoke, Henry reached out to take a look at what Nolan had bought. But before he could even touch the bag, Nolan suddenly said, “Don’t touch.”
The single word “Don’t touch” startled Henry, causing him to quickly retract his hand.
“What’s so mysterious about it? You won’t even let me take a look?”
“It’s for a girl, don’t look.”
After saying this, Nolan stood up. “You stay here and watch over her, I’m heading back first.”
“Hey!”
In the time it took for Henry to turn his head, Nolan had already left the infirmary.
Henry looked at Eliza, who was gradually calming down on the sickbed, and then at Nolan’s retreating figure.
Could it be… that Nolan and Eliza really are dating?
At noon, Eliza slowly woke up on the sickbed. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Henry dozing off beside her.
“Henry?”
Eliza’s voice was dry and hoarse.
Upon hearing Eliza’s voice, Henry let out a sigh of relief. “Thank goodness, you’re finally awake.”
Eliza struggled to sit up from the bed. She looked around and realized she was in the infirmary.
Eliza asked, “Did you bring me here?”
“Me? No, it was Nolan.”
As Henry spoke, he opened the snacks and handed them to Eliza. “The school doctor said you must have breakfast, otherwise it will have a significant impact on your health. It’s not good if you have hypoglycemia.”
Looking at the large bag of snacks in front of her, Eliza pursed her lips.
Henry said, “I didn’t know what you like, so I bought a bit of everything. You can choose what to eat. I’ll bring you some every morning from now on.”

“We’re all classmates, we should help each other out. Besides, I was the one who didn’t think things through. I knew you had a falling out with your family and really didn’t have extra money to live on. I should have prepared these for you earlier.
Henry patted Eliza’s shoulder like an older brother. “I’ve already asked for leave for your afternoon classes. You should rest in the dormitory today. Don’t worry about the leave note, Nolan should have already taken care of it for you.”
“So… where is Nolan?”
“Him? I don’t know. He left after buying all these things and didn’t let me open the bag.”
As he spoke, Henry pointed to the black plastic bag beside him.
The black plastic bag was the kind usually used for garbage. Eliza was taken aback when she saw it.
“Open it and see what’s inside. I’m really curious!”
Henry had wanted to open it earlier, but if it weren’t for the fear of Nolan finding out, he wouldn’t have left. the black plastic bag untouched for so long.
Eliza took the black plastic bag. The items inside were heavy and bulky. When she opened the bag, the first thing she saw was some women’s underwear.
Upon seeing this, Eliza instinctively closed the bag.
“What’s wrong?”
Henry looked at Eliza curiously. “What’s inside? Show me!”
“No, cannot!”
Eliza was a bit stuttering, her face red from either fever or embarrassment, or both.
Seeing Eliza’s reaction, Henry became even more curious about what was in the plastic bag.
But seeing Eliza’s flushed face, Henry could only say, “Alright, alright, I won’t ask. Let’s get you back to your dorm. You won’t be able to carry all these things by yourself.”
With that, Henry took the initiative to pick up the black plastic bag, along with the bag of snacks he had bought.
Eliza got down from the bed, still feeling lightheaded and weak, but fortunately, the infirmary was not far from the girls‘ dormitory.
Henry escorted Eliza to her dormitory.
When he saw that Eliza’s dormitory was empty except for her and that her bed was only sparsely covered with a sheet, he hesitated for a moment.
“Thank you, Henry. I’ll just rest here by myself for a while.”
“Okay, you rest. Give me a call if anything comes up.”

With that, Henry left Eliza’s dormitory.
Eliza was exhausted. She opened the package and looked at what was inside the plastic bag.
There were sets of underwear and panties, cach in packs of six. In addition to these, there were two sweaters, two cotton jackets, including women’s thermal pants and socks, and at the bottom, there was a vacuum–packed down jacket.
