Helian Qiao promptly grabbed the cup with both hands and slurped down the liquid. After finishing, she let out a contented sigh," Ah~ this is even better than sugar water."
Then she shoved the cup in Gu Tingyun's face, her demands as overbearing as a bandit's, "I want more."
Gu Tingyun shook his head: "No, too much water, you won't have room for dinner."
Helian Qiao adamantly declared: "I could eat!"
Yet, Gu Tingyun continued, "No beef jerky or canned beef for today either, you can have them tomorrow."
On hearing that, Helian Qiao quickly stuffed the remaining canned beef and jerky into her mouth, then she smugly retorted, "I already ate them all!"
However, Gu Tingyun found her naive act endearing. His initial intent was to avoid opening a new pack of beef jerky or canned beef after finishing the current one.
But rather than explaining, he waited until she finished eating, then wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.
