Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu had temporarily come to an agreement. Zhuang Liu promised Tan Rou that this time when she went on a business trip, he wouldn't follow her, nor would he constantly monitor her whereabouts; if Tan Rou didn't voluntarily tell him where she was, he wouldn't ask.
After their conversation, they sat together and shared a meal, as if they had returned to their dating days.
Zhuang Liu peeled shrimp for Tan Rou, and she habitually bit off a mouthful of shrimp. Only after swallowing did she realize that she was still at odds with Zhuang Liu, which seemed to dawn on him as well.
He smiled briefly and picked up another cooked shrimp, saying, "It seems we are just like before."
Tan Rou put down her chopsticks and said very seriously, "That's how it should be between us."
"Mm," Zhuang Liu nodded before continuing to peel shrimp for Tan Rou.
Tan Rou also occasionally picked out dishes for Zhuang Liu, and both of them seemed to enjoy the meal greatly.
