"Don't rush. Eat something before you go," Shen Yi said as he placed a low table on the kang and laid out the food. Yuanchun had just finished washing up and was about to hurry out when he caught her by the arm. Flustered, she wolfed down a few bites before turning to leave.
Shen Yi chased after her, stuffing two corn cakes into her hand. "Stick them in your pocket. Eat when you get hungry."
