Li Xiang is a bit of a glutton and can't stop eating whenever she goes out.

She hadn't been out of the hotel long before she pulled the small bag over her shoulder and struggled to open it with one hand.

Don't ask her why she didn't use both hands, because the other hand was in Shen Yu's coat pocket and Li Xiang had to work so hard to get her fingers into his hand that she didn't want to take it out.

Shen Yu was speechless and had to put his other hand over to help her open the bag.

Again, don't ask Shen Yu why he doesn't use this hand in his pocket, because Shen Yu himself doesn't know.

"What do you want to eat?"

"Want that plum!"

Shen Yu then took a small packet of plums from her small bag and helped her open it.

In her bag, apart from a small make-up box, the most common items are snacks, such as lollipops, plums, lemon slices, etc.

All day long, she talks about losing weight, but she doesn't lose any of what she should eat, and quite scientifically, she only eats things that she doesn't think will make her fat.

Li Xiang reached out his little hand and pinched a plum slice out and held it up high in front of Shen Yu: "Open your mouth, I'll feed it to you ......"

Shen Yu then opened his mouth, and she steadily fed him one, asking him with a smile, "Is it good?"

"It's sour."

"Then I'll find you a sweet one!"

"Is this any different?"

"Yes! If it's more white on the surface, it tastes a little bit sweeter."

She then searched through the packet of plums, pinched another one out and held it up high to Shen Yu's mouth.

This time, Shen Yu opened her mouth consciously without her having to say anything.

Li Xiang then happily gave him his food, feeling super satisfied, and finally put one in his own mouth and savoured it.

Her tongue was dexterous and the plum didn't stay in her mouth, she moved it around with the tip of her tongue, so you could see her cheeks puffing out on the left and the right in a playful way.

Shen Yu is not as bored as she is. He eats a plum and chews the meat off in two bites, opening his mouth and spitting the core into his hand, looking around and not finding the bin.

Li Xiang then turned his bag around again and took a tissue to wrap the plum core for him, whispering, "Take the rubbish away or you'll be punished!"

Shen Yu had to take it first.

Soon after Li Xiang had finished his plum in his mouth, Shen Yu offered his palm to Li Xiang, who froze and suddenly felt that he was super warm!

"Why are you looking at me ......"

"Shen Yu you are so nice!!!"

"I'm taking two of these anyway, I don't care if I take one more from you, hurry up."

Li Xiang then gently spat out the plum core, which felt a little warm and sticky when it landed on Shen Yu's hand.

Probably because it came out of her mouth, Shen Yu didn't feel disgusted and naturally wrapped it in a tissue and tucked it into the other pocket of her coat.

When she finally found a rubbish bin by a station, Shen Yu took the rubbish out of her hand, otherwise she would have thought he was going to collect her spat out plum pits or something, right?

"Ah ...... I thought Shen Yu was going to use it for his collection."

"Keep your mouth shut and next time it's my turn to spit on your hand."

"Yes, yes, I'll definitely be using it for my collection then!"

Shen Yu's face was stony, having underestimated Li Xiang's perversity.

Neither of them had eaten much since yesterday's Osei cuisine, and after eating two plums, their stomachs started rumbling.

Since Li Xiang wanted to eat eel rice, Shen Yu went with her to eat eel rice.

Although he didn't say so, Li Xiang could tell that he didn't like sushi, sashimi and so on, and that he preferred to eat fragrant rice with vegetables.

It was now mealtime, so the two chose a nice looking family restaurant close by.

Most of the restaurants in Japan are relatively small and not as busy as ours, and family restaurants are simple conversions of their own residential structures and are engaged in restaurant operations to create a family atmosphere, with decorative tones mostly in warm colours.

"Welcome~"

The waiter welcomes Shen Yu and Li Xiang to their seats.

Shen Yu picked up the menu and looked at it, but it was all in Japanese and he couldn't understand it.

There are still a lot of dishes, because Japan is an importing country, the price of dishes can be quite variable, if some food is in season, it is very cheap, otherwise it is affected by some import and export, like this season, if you want to eat watermelon, cantaloupe and so on, it belongs to the sky price.

The cheapest season for eel rice is summer, when the eel is at its best, but of course the current one is not bad either, and the difference is not noticeable to diners who are not extremely fond of this dish.

"We'd like two orders of eel rice!"

"Okay, does it need to be bushy-roasted or white-roasted?"

Li Xiang then asked Shen Yu: " Shen Yu, can we both have it? They're both delicious, and then we'll eat them together!"

"Then just order them all."

"Mmmmmm! We'll take two on special!"

Li Xiang then ordered two different ones, the specials were one size fits all, which means large and small portions.

Good eel rice, the eels are freshly killed and the serving process takes a little longer, thirty minutes later the waiter comes up with two fragrant eel rice.

Kamabiyaki and Shirayaki are two different ways of cooking eel. Kamabiyaki is grilled until the fish is firm, steamed for 20 minutes to remove the fat from the fish, then grilled again and brushed with the sauce, which gives the fish a crispy texture, firm and juicy on the outside and the sauce is very tasty.

The sauce is also very elaborate, the recipe includes soy sauce, sugar, mirin, kombu, sake, eel bone broth and so on, and the sauce is brushed over and over again while grilling and gently fanned with a futon fan.

The white roast is much more rustic, also known as a vegetarian roast, and is simply roasted with a little sea salt and eaten with a side dish or special dip.

The two just ordered two orders of eel rice, but there were quite a few plates and bowls of small dishes on the table, such as eel liver soup, grilled skewers of eel liver, fried eel bones and so on, which looked very generous.

Li Xiang pushes the order of braised eel rice in front of Shen Yu, who eats the white one.

"Shen Yu taste this for me and then I'll taste that for you too."

She used her chopsticks to swap the eel in their lunch boxes, which is unbelievable in the eyes of the average Japanese, who eats from other people's lunch boxes.

But Li Xiang doesn't mind, and neither does Shen Yu.

He still enjoyed the meal of eel and rice, the sauce permeated through the rice and was quite satisfying to the palate.

Shen Yu was very restrained and did not eat much last night when he followed Asaba Kazuo and Miori to dinner, but after being hungry for so long, he finally had a satisfying lunch today.

The food looked quite large, but the quantity was not very large, and he alone had almost finished all these small dishes on the table.

Li Xiang didn't eat much, she didn't eat much of anything except snacks, so she gave Shen Yu all the eels in her lunchbox, and Shen Yu didn't mind and took them all.

He looked at the half of the rice left in Li Xiang's canteen and asked, "You didn't throw up in it, did you?"

"Geez, Shen Yu is so gross!"

"Give me the rice."

"Hehehe, Shen Yu is so nice."

"You call that good?"

"It's great! It's because girls have smaller appetites, so it's a shame if they don't finish it and waste it, but Shen Yu is willing to help me finish all my meals, so that makes me feel happy."

Like Shen Yu's willingness to pick up the plum pits she spat out with his hand, Li Xiang felt inexplicably happy that he was willing to finish the rest of her meal.

After all, Shen Yu didn't mind her at all.

"What do you keep looking at me for ......"

Shen Yu looked up at her, Li Xiang had already eaten first, she propped her hands on the table, cupped her little face and watched him eat, a smile on the corner of her mouth, her long eyelashes flickering like a small fan.

"I'm having fun."

"What's the giggle about?"

"I have a boyfriend who is super good at eating! The thought that I can cook for you every day from now on makes me happy."

"I used to think it was nice to eat, read, paint and walk alone. I could sit in the courtyard and read a book as the sky slowly darkened, turning from the first page to the last, or I could wear my favourite dress and eat a snack while humming a little tune with glee, every strand of hair free and happy... ..."

"But after I met Shen Yu, I realised that even when doing the same thing, the joy of one person is completely different from two!"

"Cooking for Shen Yu turned out to be such a joyful and happy thing to do! Putting your hand in Shen Yu's pocket when you go out is so warm! Holding Shen Yu's waist when riding a motorbike makes me feel so dependent! I can't help but be nice to you, so nice to you! I love this! It's so sweet, it's so satisfying, it's so exciting, it's so longing and it's so many other things that make me feel even better!"

Shen Yu doesn't know how to cook, it's a chore for him, and he can't understand why Li Xiang loves it so much.

But it is certain that Shen Yu likes to eat her cooking, so it is the opposite with her.

It was only when she was away for a few days that Shen Yu realised how much she hated eating takeaway.

Growing up, Shen Yu has only ever had good feelings for girls, or admiration, but never a crush on anyone. He feels that liking is giving to the other person without expecting anything in return, something he used to think was silly, pointless and a waste of time.

It was only after meeting Li Xiang that these thoughts changed without me realising it.

I used to feel that I had a full life, but I always felt empty in my heart, but after Li Xiang came into my heart, Shen Yu suddenly felt a lot tighter in her heart, all soft and solid.

It was like falling asleep with her in my arms last night, it was a completely different feeling from being under the covers, a feeling of fullness and contentment that I had never felt before.

Li Xiang asked him curiously again, " Does Shen Yu think there is any difference between the two of us now, and when you were alone?"

Shen Yu froze, lowered her head to eat and whispered, "Ate more than before."

Probably afraid she wouldn't understand what he was trying to say, he added, "A lot more ......"

I thought that was a romantic enough answer, like her and have two more bowls of rice.

After all, for the average boy of steel, uttering five words like 'let's go out' last night is something that would kill him from too much shame.

It dawned on Li Xiang: "Is it because of my saliva? I love Shen Yu's saliva too!"

Shen Yu doesn't want to talk to her, looks like we should keep our interactions with this pervert to a minimum!
