Song He, who had become a "food porter," silently watched these three eating and drinking. Their pace had quickly slowed down from the initial feasting.
In the following two time units, they seemed more to savor the delicacies than to gorge themselves to fill their stomachs. They ate with great care.
They didn't even waste a crumb of pastry.
But then, one tableful of food after another, all kinds of dishes, were devoured by the three of them. Song He watched until he was full — there's a kind of fullness that comes from watching others eat.
Only after they had finished eating did Senior Brother Jiang leisurely ask, "You must have a reason for seeking me out. We three have enjoyed your feast, so naturally, we should offer something in return.
Speak, what do you want?
These two are my close friends and comrades-in-arms guarding this world with me; there's no need to keep secrets from them."
His words were quite clear.
