"You've gotten thinner. You should eat more," Lin Ruoxi said, placing a pork rib onto Gu Muxue's plate. She then picked up Gu Muxue's bowl and filled it with soup.
Gu Muxue turned her head slightly and took Lin Ruoxi's hand. "I'm full. How about you?"
"I'm full," Lin Ruoxi said.
Gu Muxue nodded and pulled Lin Ruoxi to her feet.
'You can let her have the pork rib, but what about the man?'
She didn't say the words aloud. Lin Ruoxi's gentleness made her heart soften. In truth, she hadn't wanted to pressure Lin Ruoxi from the very beginning.
Xue Rui was seated along the path they had to take. He tried to stand, but Gu Muxue pressed his shoulder down.
"Lin Ruoxi and I are going ahead to get a private room for everyone. Come over as soon as you're done eating," Gu Muxue announced.
"I've already booked it. We just need to go over to get it started. It's right across the street. It's not safe for you two to go alone," Xue Rui said.
