"When it comes to treating, she treats. Ji You quickly paid off the bill, clutching her food tray. She lingered, not wanting to leave, hoping to chat with Senior Shi Ya for a bit. Yet seeing Senior Shi Ya continuously busy, averaging 10 seconds to serve each meal and with a still impressively long queue...
Ji You thought it over and decided not to disturb her. Instead, she just watched Senior Shi Ya and said with a smile, 'Senior, I will go and eat now, and we can catch up after class in the afternoon.'
Upon hearing this, Shi Ya looked up—
Ji You, observing her indifferent expression, initially thought she would surely be rejected, but unexpectedly, she heard a soft reply: 'Hmm.'
Just one word, and had Ji You not been all ears, she might have thought she misheard it.
Instinctively, Ji You's eyes brightened. She stared at Senior Shi Ya with a smile tugging at the edges of her eyes and corners of her eyebrows, saying, 'Then it's settled! I'm off to eat.'
Shi Ya remained silent.
