Chapter 1672

It was already dusk after they'd gotten some rest. Both Matthew and Tristan went down to have dinner at a roadside stall. Ever since they were attacked, Tristan hadn't eaten anything, so she was hungry as a bear. As they sat at the stall, Matthew noticed that she seemed rather uncomfortable.

Since she hadn't been to such a dilapidated and dirty roadside stall, she found it uncomfortable to dine there. On the other hand, Matthew, who was used to having his meals at roadside stalls, actually preferred to dine at such places. After he devoured his pasta, he noticed that she barely touched her food as she found it unpalatable.

Noticing her expression, he knew that she wasn't used to it since she was a young lady from a wealthy family. He called the waiter over and ordered a bowl of white rice. As she looked at the white rice, she suddenly had some appetite and was able to take a few bites. Even so, she didn't have any of the other dishes throughout the meal. After devouring the rice, she was finally full.

Tristan sat opposite Matthew, and she blushed as she said softly, "Thank you."

"What for?" He was surprised.

She didn't say anything else, but she was actually thankful toward his attentiveness since he had purposely ordered a bowl of white rice for her when he realized that she probably found the food there unhygienic. However, Matthew was rather confused when she suddenly thanked him, not quite figuring out the situation.
