To calm down Ru and to save himself from another thrashing, Xiao Zhiren zipped his lips and took her somewhere she'd forget all about his earlier remarks. And that place was... The Food Street of the Capital.
Obviously, to a foodie like Ru the only thing that could coax her would be food, not words. And as he had expected, Ru's eyes certainly brightened up at the sight of the bustling street filled with restaurants and food stalls. It was pure heaven for her.
The aroma of spices, burnt oil, sweetness, sourness, lingered in the air making one's taste buds to awaken. At least, Ru's inner food beast was awoken. She held Xiao Zhiren's wrist and dragged him along towards the cold rice noodles bar.
