Out of respect for Sheng Ning'an, Sheng Yeli stayed until the three had finished eating before he left.
Before departing, he even took the initiative to pay the bill.
He also instructed the front desk to pack a small cake for each of the three to take back to the dorm.
Finally, he said to Sheng Ning'an, "I won't see you off. Make your own way back to school and be safe on the road."
"Got it; no need for you to see us off." The school wasn't far, and the three could simply walk back.
Watching him leave the restaurant, Tian Yu said dreamily, "Our Young Uncle is really handsome!"
Xue Xian nodded in agreement, "He's also quite thoughtful, just not very talkative." Not just not very talkative — beyond asking them to sit down at the beginning, he hadn't said a word to them the entire time.
But because Sheng Ning'an had given them a heads up in advance, they were somewhat prepared.
They knew he was quiet, but they didn't realize he was that quiet.
