After they had polished off a full six large tables of dishes, the two of them finally put down their chopsticks under the waiter's horrified gaze.
Ren Ning let out a sigh of infinite satisfaction. "This is the first time in my life I've ever eaten this full! Uh… it feels so good!"
Xue An smiled faintly. "Don't worry. From now on, as long as you're with me, I'll make sure you eat your fill every meal."
"Mm mm mm!" Ren Ning nodded like a pecking chick.
He didn't know if it was an illusion or what, but Xue An noticed that as Ren Ning nodded, the mist covering her face seemed to thin out a little.
He could faintly see a trace of the features beneath.
But Xue An said nothing about it, merely smiled lightly, paid the bill, and then turned to lead Ren Ning out of the restaurant.
By now the street outside had grown even livelier. After eating her fill, Ren Ning's courage seemed to have grown as well; she edged up to Xue An and asked quietly,
"Where are we going next?"
