Shen Yuan nodded.
He recalled from his memory fragments that Li Zhi always ate beef bowls, and honestly, he couldn't blame her.
'It really did taste pretty good.'
Li Zhi didn't say anything more. She just took another big mouthful, her cheeks puffing out slightly, expressing her approval through her actions.
Sitting across from her, Shen Yuan watched as the girl lowered her head and seriously dug into her food. The smile on his lips deepened, and he too lowered his head to enjoy his meal.
The two of them quickly finished every last bit of their beef bowls. Shen Yuan stood up, deftly cleared the trays, and together with Li Zhi, they returned their tableware to the collection point.
As they walked out of the cafeteria, they were greeted by the lazy afternoon sun of the campus.
A gentle breeze rustled the leaves on the tree-lined path. The crowd on the lawn had thinned since they arrived, and the faint aroma of food still lingered in the air.
