When he mentioned him, my entire expression sank again.
Drover seemed to have noticed this and did not pursue the topic. "Have you eaten dinner? Do you want to come with me? I just invited Marius.”
I did not refuse, and he brought me to the restaurant.
At the restaurant, Marius had already arrived and ordered a table full of dishes.
When he saw me, his eyes lit up as he chuckled lightly. "Ah, why is Sis Wan here?"
Drover was quite the gentleman. He pulled out a chair for me. I did not respond to Marius' question.
"What's the matter? Why are you sad?"
Marius asked, pointing at my sad face.
The person he was asking was Drover.
"I don't know. I just bumped into her on the road."
I could hear their conversation clearly, but I did not want to participate in it.
I calmed down after a while and looked at the two of them. The corners of my mouth curved a little. "There's so much food. Why aren't you guys eating? I won't hold myself back, then."
I started on the food first, which made them look at each other.
"It's good that you still have your appetite. Let’s dig in too. "
Marius was a typical optimistic person. Seeing that I could still eat, he asked no further questions.
Eventually, we wiped out a table of dishes.
I felt a little sick and ran to the bathroom and vomited.
I ate too much too fast, so my stomach could not take it anymore.
Looking up at my pale self in the mirror, my heart sank even more.
I turned on the faucet and washed my face, feeling a lot more awake.
"If you can't eat so much, why did you force yourself?"
