"A boring trick." Once Chijie realized what had happened, he grumbled irritably and picked up his chopsticks.
But the moment the food entered his mouth, Chijie paused as well.
Chijie looked over the dishes in front of him as if confirming something, his heart filled with immense confusion.
"All right, everyone, let's eat," Aponia said gently.
Aponia's voice caught Chijie's attention.
Chijie reached straight over Chen Luo and snatched the lunch in front of Aponia.
"Chijie, you..."
"I'm eating two portions! What, got a problem with that?" Chijie snorted coldly.
You said I wasn't allowed to hurt innocent people during this meal, but you never said I couldn't steal your food!
"He's eating two portions..." Aponia looked at Chen Luo, who was seated between her and Chijie, seeking help.
Since I'm already willing to help you keep your secret, we're on the same side now. You handle this.
As the central figure of this gathering, Chen Luo, the one responsible for cooking, was naturally the person to turn to when something went wrong.
After placing his own lunch beside Aponia, Chen Luo directly took the carrot-flavored lunch from in front of Chijie.
What a sin.
Why was I always the one getting hurt?
And are you people kindergarten children or what?!!
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Important things had to be said three times.
As for updates, they would still have to wait until noon today, but I couldn't help posting a standalone chapter now.
After all, this was a moment worth commemorating.
Although the feeling of the new year had been growing fainter and fainter, it was still something worth celebrating.
(Though I was exhausted to death today, of all days.)
In the new year, I wish all my dear readers peace and safety,
