Wen Nian went off-topic as usual, but Shen Jun answered in the simplest words. Their interactions were just like when they had first met.
Seeing this, Wen Nian did not dare to say anything else. She obediently finished her lessons and returned to the noodle shop for dinner after school.
Zhou Mei realized that Wen Nian did not have much of an appetite today. Everyone had finished eating, and there was still more than half a bowl of rice in her bowl. She asked, "Are you feeling unwell today?"
Wen Nian turned around and saw her mother looking at her. She shook her head weakly and said, "I'm feeling fine. Mom, go do your work. I'm fine."
Zhou Mei chuckled softly. "You're almost making rice paste out of the rice in the bowl. You call this fine?"
Wen Nian followed Zhou Mei's gaze and looked down at the rice in her bowl. She looked up and laughed dryly at Zhou Mei. "I'll finish it immediately."
