Fancy meal? Could they afford a fancy meal?
It was not until they reached the noodle stall across the street that she realized Su Yan's "fancy meal" consisted of noodle soup with two eggs. She couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Delicious, isn't it!" Su Yan assumed she liked the noodles just as much as he did.
It's strange how life turns out. The past Su Yan would never have imagined having to sit at such a grimy stall, let alone enjoy its noodles.
