Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When she was in her second year of university, John was already in his fourth year of university and had entered Grant Group as an intern. By then, he rarely had time to accompany her, so she had a better time with her roommates and often went out for supper with them.
Her roommate in the lower bunk was nicknamed ‘Big Lady’ because she could eat everything sold on the streets in one night. But by the time they reached their dorm, Big Lady would simply lie in bed and complain that she was too full. Yet, she could not change this bad habit every time.
Gabriel was afraid of Serenity constantly bumping into people as they navigated the crowd so he protected her in his arms. The two entered a dumpling shop and ordered two bowls of black sesame dumplings.
The shop was very small and the table was glistening with oil. Gabriel frowned slightly and grabbed a tissue to wipe the table in front of them clean.
“Since you don’t like it, why did you choose this shop here?” asked Serenity faintly when she saw how he was trying his best to endure it.
Gabriel threw the tissue he had wiped into the trash can under the table. “We’re in a relationship now. I can do what others can do.”
He must have planned all of this out because he was not wearing a suit. Instead, he was wearing a V-neck shirt under a black coat. He lacked his usual seriousness and coldness so he simply looked like a senior from university.
The dumplings were served very quickly and were steaming hot. Serenity was not bothered and started eating with the spoon.
Gabriel had never eaten anything from a food stall like this in his twenty-eight years of life. Although the bowl was covered with a layer of film, he still felt that it was not clean. He only took two bites before putting down the spoon.
Seeing that Serenity had eaten more than half of it, he pulled her bowl over. “Eat less or you’ll get indigestion.”
After paying, the two left to head over to the most popular food on this food street: oden. Many people had already lined up for it.
Serenity licked her lips greedily and shook his arm. Gabriel noticed how she was drooling over it so he compromised and said. “For the sake of the child, we shall go grab a bite.”
“I don’t want to eat it,” said she, rubbing her round belly. “1 just wanted to taste it.”
“Wait here,” said Gabriel with a helpless sigh.
“I’ll buy it.” Serenity pulled him back.
Her handbag was in the car, so Gabriel passed her the wallet. She took a twenty dollar note and went to line up.
Gabriel stood at the same spot and waited. He looked at her in the crowd and his lips curled up slightly.
In the past, when he was dating Queenie Langley, he was a proud and arrogant person who would never come to such a place. Even if she begged him, he would not break his principles.
And yet, here he was accompanying Serenity today. Although he didn’t like the environment here, he was happy to see her happy.
Serenity bought some oden and knew that Gabriel would not eat this kind of thing, so she started eating by herself.
The taste was still the same as before. It hadn’t changed so Serenity’s mind was flooded with nostalgia.
She had always liked spicy food, but after she got pregnant, Mrs. Winstead said that pregnant women could not eat too spicy food. So now, even after eating something slightly spicy, her tolerance had gone down and she started panting.
Gabriel went to buy her a cup of milk tea. She only ate two meatballs but he threw the rest away.
“I haven’t eaten enough yet,” said she with a coy glare.
Gabriel stuffed the milk tea into her hands, took out a tissue from his coat pocket, and wiped the chili off her mouth and hands..
