Gu Ren returned to his seat and he took a few bites of his meal at random. Then, he put down his chopsticks. His jet black eyes were keenly staring at Ye Zhi.

During the meal, Ye Zhi raised her head and glanced at Gu Ren.

Gu Ren placed one hand on the table carelessly with his palm lightly resting on his chin. He had his head tilted slightly as his palm covered his perfectly thin lips.

As if he was made of frost and snow, there was a dim backlight that illuminated his silhouette, but one seemed to be able to see the deeper, brighter colors behind the halo.

He was excessively handsome.

Gu Ren caught a glimpse of Ye Zhi looking at him. His chin slightly relaxed and the corners of his lips were pulled up unconsciously, but his line of sight was always on her.

Gu Ren still maintained this posture and faintly asked, Will you continue to eat?

She glanced at the food in front of her and immediately replied, Naturally.

Ye Zhi finished one dish before she obediently picked up another dish and ate it slowly.

With a smile reflected in Gu Rens eyes, he glanced at the time on the wall and withdrew his gaze. The timbre of his tone of voice was cold and not rushed.

Dont be nervous, its still early, lets take our time.

Gu Ren deliberately emphasized the last few words. These words were simple enough, but he intentionally made it bear a few deeper meanings to it.

Ye Zhi was shocked. Gu Rens implication was that if she didnt continue to eat, he would really start to feed her.

Tonight, he would fully implement this principle, not intending to take things easy at all.

After a while, Ye Zhi finished her meal and Gu Ren watched her quietly. He understood her supposed amount of food intake before, so this shouldnt be too uncomfortable for her.

But todays meal was probably the most that Ye Zhi had eaten in a long while. She sat in her seat and rested for a moment.

After a while, Ye Zhi stood up, but she felt dizzy after taking a few steps. Her body jerked and she was about to fall to the ground.

Ye Zhi suddenly noticed that someone was gently holding onto her behind her back. She raised her face and saw Gu Rens pale and fair jaw.

Gu Ren was very tall. At this moment, he was looking down at Ye Zhi.

When Gu Ren was holding Ye Zhi just now, he could clearly perceive the faintly protruding butterfly bone(1) on her back.

(T/N: This refers to shoulder blades)

She was too thin now.

Gu Ren suddenly bent down and carried Ye Zhi in a bridal carry. With his hands just barely holding onto her frame, he could even perceive Ye Zhis excessively slender figure.

Gu Rens eyes darkened again.

Ye Zhi froze while her face flushed abruptly, Let me down, I can go by myself.

Gu Ren tilted his head before fixing his gaze downwards. With a trace of oppression this time, Gu Rens tone couldnt be rejected, I wont.

Ye Zhis voice was as soft as a mosquito, The others are looking at us

Gu Ren continued to hold Ye Zhi and walked upstairs without giving in, No.

Ye Zhi relaxed, I will definitely eat more in the future.

At this time, Gu Ren paused. He tilted his head and faintly uttered a few words, Its too late.

The understatement completely blocked Ye Zhis next words. Therefore, she could only bury her head in Gu Rens arms and keep herself as still as possible, not daring to move.

Gu Ren put Ye Zhi on the bed and said, Im going to get something.

Gu Ren left the room, leaving Ye Zhi sitting on the bed, staring blankly at his retreating figure.
