Everyone had worked hard on the meal, but it was finished in just a few minutes. During the meal, Feng Qingqing cast a few glances at Lü Yulan. She saw her eating with such gusto; though she was a female educated youth, her appetite was not much smaller than the men's. Feng Qingqing sneered inwardly at the sight. "Eat away," she thought. "If it’s not your last supper, it’s not far off."
Feng Qingqing then looked at Jiang Yun. She hadn’t expected her to keep a thick cloth draped over her face while she ate, which made her eating process quite slow. However, having grown up with her, Feng Qingqing still understood a thing or two about her. At this moment, she approved of how Hu Fangming had handled things. Though Jiang Yun appeared calm and detached, as if the matter had already passed, Feng Qingqing could discern the madness and recklessness hidden beneath those expressionless eyes. It seemed she would need to keep a close watch on her; there was no telling what kind of trouble she was brewing.
In the end, every last basin was scraped clean. Having eaten their fill, everyone was in high spirits, and some were even in the mood to joke around. Feng Qingqing was also in a good mood. Once the meal was over, she checked the sky and, feeling it was getting late, bid everyone farewell. Knowing that she was a young girl and it wouldn't be safe after dark, the others didn't press her. They exchanged greetings, and she headed back.
