"I bought some dumplings from the cafeteria, they are just reheated. I took your quilt out to air, it was a bit damp."
"Dumplings?"
On hearing about dumplings, Tang Yuxin couldn't help swallowing. She hadn't eaten all day and she was now so famished, it felt like her back was sticking to her chest. She hastily rushed over and grabbed the chopsticks from the table to serve herself a dumpling.
She was initially apprehensive as to what she would eat because she really couldn't walk anymore. Now she felt relieved as she had dumplings to eat.
"Uncle Gu, you're really considerate."
As Tang Yuxin happily ate her dumplings, she lavishly complimented him.
This compliment, it seems, was a bit over the top.
Gu Ning also sat down, picked up the chopsticks and started eating dumplings.
"Eat slowly," he tapped Tang Yuxin's hand with his chopsticks, "Who taught you to gulp down food like this?"
