” Pft —” Someone burst into laughter behind her.

What was wrong with the table behind her? Couldn’t they just eat in silence?

However, Shi Yao wasn’t too affected by that table’s occupants. This was because right after she’d said those words, Han Jing’s expression had become a little unreadable.

She knew that it was wrong of her to be thinking about food at this moment, but it would be shameless of them to waste precious food!

Thus, Shi Yao bit her lips and continued, “Senior Han, there is still a lot of food that we haven’t eaten yet. It would be a pity to waste them.”

“That…”

Shi Yao pondered for a moment—it seemed like in the dramas, whenever a person confessed to another and was rejected, one side would always leave right after.

Most of the time, the one who rejected the confession would leave first, but she really couldn’t bear to abandon this table of food…

Thus, Shi Yao continued, “…If you still have something to attend to, you can leave first. I’ll leave by myself after finishing the food.”

This was too perfect! She managed to give Senior Han an excuse to back out of this awkward situation without wasting any food at all!

Han Jing was initially feeling rather disappointed and miserable from Shi Yao’s rejection, but upon seeing this sight, he couldn’t help but smile.

She was always this adorable, so adorable that… you just couldn’t get angry with her.

Han Jing lowered his gaze to conceal the disappointment in his eyes, and trying his best to make his tone more casual, he replied, “I’m fine, so feel free to continue eating. I don’t mind waiting for you. It’s already late at night, so it won’t be safe for you to return to the campus alone. I’ll bring you back.”

After which, Han Jing paused for a moment. Seemingly worried that Shi Yao would feel uneasy eating with him, he continued, “Shi Yao, even though you rejected me, we’re still friends, right?”

Shi Yao nodded with a smile. “Of course.”

Han Jing picked up his chopsticks and pinched out a slice of fish for Shi Yao. “Alright, let’s eat.”

Shi Yao began moving her chopsticks once more.

A moment later, it suddenly dawned on Shi Yao that Senior Han might have planned to treat her to this meal because he’d intended to confess to her. Since she had rejected him, there should be no reason for him to treat her. Thus, she raised her head, looked at the unmoving Han Jing, and said, “Senior Han, you should eat too. Allow me to treat you to this meal.”

…

Halfway through the dinner, Shi Yao’s phone rang.

While fishing out her phone, she didn’t forget to stuff a huge slice of fish into her mouth.

Taking a look at the screen, she noted that someone had sent her a message. After tapping in, her chewing motion came to an abrupt halt.

T-to think that it was a message from Lin Jiage…

Shi Yao paused for a second before tapping on Lin Jiage’s name.

[Grandfather’s condition suddenly got worse, and he’s been calling your name for some time now. He wishes to see you.]

So he was contacting her because of Grandpa Lin… Shi Yao quickly typed out a reply: [How is Grandpa Lin doing at the moment?]

Perhaps Lin Jiage was still on his phone because he replied to her instantaneously. However, rather than answer her question, he asked one of his own instead: [Where are you at the moment? I’ll have our driver pick you up.]

Without giving it much thought, Shi Yao sent over her current GPS location.

Shortly after the message had been confirmed as read, another message appeared on the screen: [Is it convenient?]

After receiving her location, he was only asking whether it was convenient or not?

With such thoughts in mind, Shi Yao replied with two words: [It’s convenient.]
