Chapter 754: Truth or Dare
Facing repeated rejections yet swarmed by an ever-growing pile of food, Ji You, the girl enveloped in an ’anguish’ of loneliness, took bite after bite, eating the food unhurriedly with a reserved and genteel demeanor until none remained.
Having finished, she pulled out a handkerchief and gently dabbed the corners of her mouth, saying, "Thank you, the dinner was delicious."
Seeing that Ji You had finally finished eating, Chu Jiaojiao, who had been watching the whole time and as an unabashed fan of beauty immediately fawned over her, "Classmate Ji You, you even eat in such a beautiful manner."
Ji You: "..."
The corners of Ji You’s mouth twitched almost imperceptibly. Good thing she was easy-going; otherwise, who could dine so heartily under the close scrutiny of 9 pairs of eyes? Especially Chu Jiaojiao, that shameless beauty-chaser, gaping and drooling like she hadn’t seen someone eat in hundreds of years...
Ahem...
Throughout the meal, Ji You toughed it out under pressure, chewing slowly and keeping her poise until she finished dinner without leaving a single grain of rice or drop of soup.
Feeling full and satisfied, Ji You was in an excellent mood, so she didn’t stint on showing a pleasant face to Chu Jiaojiao and the others, her lips pursed in a toothy smile, "It was very delicious, thank you, everyone."
At the sight of Ji You’s happy smile, Chu Jiaojiao was nearly dizzy with delight, "No need to thank us, as long as Classmate Ji You is happy."
Sheng Qingyan: "..."
Sheng Qingyan inwardly scoffed: [Eat that much, of course, she’s happy.]
The others might not have been as expressive as Chu Jiaojiao, but seeing the gloom lift from Ji You, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
