Shi Yu who never ate food with heavy flavors in public opened up the lunch box under the envious and covetous gazes of everyone else around him.

Inside the lunch box were five steamed dumplings that were stuffed with minced meat and mushrooms. The glass container was full of translucent wontons that emitted puffs of hot steam; just smelling the aroma could whet one’s appetite greatly. The thin skins of the steamed dumplings were made round by the ample stuffing. Even if one wasn’t a hopeless foodie, they would still be conquered by this plump and alluring delicacy. The round wontons resembled silver ingots, the smooth and translucent skins of the wonton surrounded by the strong fragrance of shepherd’s purse was mouth-watering, and the soup that submerged the wontons was full of umami flavor. As a person drank it, a feeling of warmth would disperse all throughout their body.

This dish was simply the pinnacle of luxury. 　　

Li LinLing impatiently looked on for a while but, in the end, she still wasn’t presumptuous enough to ask Gou Liang for a portion too. Instead, she tugged Gou Liang and Chen LiBai away and began to gossip enthusiastically in order to take her mind off the food.  

Gou Liang didn’t hear a word Li LinLing was saying. He was currently having an intense conversation with the System about the sudden +25 increase in favorability value.

【Gou Liang: I knew it, there’s just no way for anyone to resist my food after all 

~ (╭￣3￣)╭ 】

【System: Master, now is not the time to praise yourself! +65 favorability points, ah! The favorability value has already exceeded 60. Let’s start thinking about how to retrieve the fragment! brimming-with-enthusiasm.gif 】

【Gou Liang poured cold water over the System: You, ne, find the location where the fragment is embedded in, then we’ll talk.】

【System: …Perhaps the soul intimacy level still isn’t high enough. After the favorability value is increased some more, I should be able to locate its exact position. The Mainframe is also working to provide you with hints as soon as possible. 】

【Gou Liang was not impressed: Perhaps? Should? Hints? Heh.】

System: Although it was just a measly ‘heh’, the system has the impression of being roasted to death. 〒▽〒 

After finishing his second serving of breakfast of the day, Shi Yu did not feel unwell because of his excessively burdened stomach. Instead, he was in an unprecedentedly good mood. He carefully placed the lunchbox into his own bag before turning to look at Gou Liang who was sizing him up and thought he was hiding it well. Shi Yu smiled at him and joked: “Feeling distressed about your food? But it’s too late to regret it now. Thank you for the breakfast, deskmate.”

“Who’s distressed…”

Gou Liang was still mulling over why Shi Yu would suddenly have such a huge increase in favorability towards him, as well as the reason why they were unable to locate the fragment. At the time when the breakthrough in the favorability value had happened, the System had eagerly used Gou Liang’s soul force to search the target’s soul in order to find the location of the fragment, only to fail. Gou Liang was deep in thought over these questions so his response sounded somewhat absent-minded. But when his eyes made contact with Shi Yu’s, his train of thought was abruptly cut off, causing his sentence to trail off.

Shi Yu was smiling.　　 

It was a sincere smile that reached all the way up to his eyes.　

And the expression that Shi Yu was looking at him with was extremely earnest…
