Returning to her place, Tong Yao immediately headed for the shower. She lingered there for more than half an hour before emerging. Si Boyi and Si Xiaohui were still in the living room, waiting for her to eat.
Luckily, the weather was hot, so it didn't matter if the food had gotten a bit cold.
When she sat down, Si Xiaohui quickly passed her the chopsticks, urging, "Sister-in-law, you must be hungry! Hurry up and eat something."
She herself was starving and impatient. Boyi hadn't allowed her to eat till Tong Yao came out. Now, as soon as Tong Yao appeared, she hastily handed her the chopsticks and began to eat.
Tong Yao, knowing everyone was hungry, spoke up with courage, "Boyi, you also start eating!" After that, she ambitiously took a few bites, then put her bowl and chopsticks down and returned to her room.
