Chapter 215
Byeol wasn’t necessarily a picky eater. However, this only applied when vegetables were the only option on the table. Now, if both meat and vegetables were available, Byeol’s spoon would inevitably go straight for the meat.
After devouring three bowls of glossy fried rice and smearing her mouth with its remnants, she rubbed her now-rounded belly and beamed.
“All done?” Do-Jun asked.
“Yep!” Byeol answered cheerfully.
Her portions of spinach salad and fresh lettuce wraps that were set aside remained untouched in her bowl. It was obvious she had only eaten the meat-laden fried rice and completely ignored the vegetables. Scratching his head, Do-Jun sighed deeply.
Even with a full stomach, Byeol always had room for a post-dinner snack, almost like she had a separate stomach just for that. She opened a drawer, pulled out a bag of potato chips, and tore it open. Then, grabbing a handful of chips, she munched loudly while dashing toward the door. Compared to when she first arrived, her cheeks were rounder, and her belly had grown noticeably plumper.
“I’m going out to pway!” she said.
“Go ahead,” Do-Jun replied with a grin.
Even if Byeol was a picky eater, as long as she ate well and grew healthily, it didn’t seem to matter. It wasn’t like she was going to be affected by the type of nutrients she consumed, anyway.

Kiriel was sitting by the food stall, engrossed in a book titled The Wise Vegetarian. It explained the benefits of adopting a vegetarian diet, and he became interested in vegetarianism after reading it. Although the text was full of complicated terms like “plant-based diet” and “vegan,” it boiled down to one simple message: eating vegetables makes you healthier.
“What are you doing, Kirieh?” Byeol asked.
