The Bashful Zi Yan

"Nom nom nom~"

At an inn in Falling Star City, Zi Yan held a huge porcelain bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, shoveling food into her mouth with ravenous gusto. Empty plates and bowls were piled before her like a small mountain. The surrounding diners stared at the beautiful woman in stunned disbelief. It was their first time seeing someone who could eat so much; three stacks of empty dishes had already been cleared from the table.

Xiao Yan sat across from her, watching helplessly. It seemed Zi Yan's appetite had grown considerably after waking up. Several tables' worth of food had been served, and Xiao Yan had not touched a single bite. It had all gone into Zi Yan's stomach.

"Ha~"

Zi Yan slammed the bowl onto the table, stuck out her tongue to lick the crumbs from her lips, and lightly patted her utterly unchanged little belly.

"Mm~ Not bad. I'm half full."

Hearing that, Xiao Yan's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably before he looked at Zi Yan and asked.

"Are you still eating?"

"No. I want to go have some street snacks."

Zi Yan pulled a tissue from the table and answered as she wiped her lips. Xiao Yan nodded lightly, rose to settle the bill, then suddenly sensed that something was off. He turned to look at Zi Yan in surprise.

Zi Yan, who was wiping her mouth, grew a little uneasy under Xiao Yan's stare and looked blankly at him.

"What is it?"

When Zi Yan had still been a child, she would run off to play
