By the end of the meal, Mo Chengzhou really could not eat another bite, so he sat and waited for Yan Wen and Tang Yun to finish.
Mo Chengzhou had always stopped eating when he was about seventy percent full. Today, he had already broken with habit and eaten an extra serving of pan-fried tofu. He truly could not eat any more.
But...
Watching the food on the table gradually disappear, Mo Chengzhou began to worry about their stomachs.
Would eating so much upset their stomachs tonight? Maybe I should ask my assistant to buy a box of digestive tablets, just in case.
The two finished their last bites and pulled out tissues to wipe their mouths.
Tang Yun said, "Let's sit for a while and let the food settle."
Yan Wen agreed. "Exactly what I was thinking."
Mo Chengzhou smiled helplessly. "Eating so much at once might give you diarrhea tonight."
Yan Wen wagged a finger in all seriousness. "You're underestimating me. This little bit of food is nothing I can't handle."
Tang Yun chimed in, "Exactly. We've polished off meals bigger than this."
Mo Chengzhou sighed helplessly. "Having a good appetite is fine, but you still need to know your limits. You don't want to damage your stomach."
Yan Wen's eyes curved with his smile. "Got it. I won't do it again."
The three sat there for ten minutes before leaving.
Yan Wen checked the time. It was already past eleven thirty, so it would be after one by the time they got home.
It was time to head back and get some sleep.
Yan Wen yawned. "A full stomach makes me sleepy."
Tang Yun caught his yawn and yawned too. Beside them, Mo Chengzhou's mouth parted slightly before he forced his own yawn back down.
