Qu Fulan thought Pei Ji'an wouldn't be able to tolerate this kind of occasion and would quickly excuse himself.
However, after breakfast was served, despite looking visibly uncomfortable, he calmly finished eating.
Qu Fulan couldn't figure out why he was putting himself through this difficulty.
Not only was it hard on him, but it was hard on her too.
It made having breakfast awkward, as two people with such contrasting lifestyles dining together was always uncomfortable.
Finally finishing breakfast with difficulty, Qu Fulan was relieved to be able to bid farewell to him.
Pei Ji'an didn't say much; he simply dropped her off at the designated place and left.
Qu Fulan didn't take the incident to heart and went with her friend to explore the market.
Yet, when discussing collaboration, she encountered Pei Ji'an again.
