Chapter 454: Comfort
The light was above her head.
Thus, the jet-black hair was dyed with a blurred halo. Under the halo, the girl's eyebrows and eyes were focused, and a beautiful and delicate arc was drawn from the side of her face to her jaw.
Her hands looked like warm jade and bone porcelain in the light, slender and delicate, and made a slight friction sound when she peeled off the packaging.
The girl stared at her straight, her eyes changing emotions several times, until Shen Pianpian raised her head, and she seemed to be less alert.
As soon as Shen Pianpian met her gaze, the girl quickly retracted her gaze and stared at the dark wooden table. The hand under the table involuntarily grabbed the puppy's only remaining ear.
Miss Shen blinked a little confusedly, then nodded her chin towards the things in front of her.
"Eat, why don't you eat?"
The girl slowly reached out, picked up a small biscuit, and put it into her mouth, chewing it very quickly.
Then came the second and the third, and the snacks disappeared in her mouth one after another very quickly.
Shen Pianpian could hardly keep up with the speed of peeling the paper.
Miss Shen pursed her lips and muttered,
"You're not going to leave me any food. Eat slowly and don't choke."
I thought these words would just fall on deaf ears in the girl's ears, but I didn't expect the girl to suddenly stop stuffing something into her mouth.
Shen Pianpian looked up in surprise.
The girl didn't look at her, but the action of stuffing something into her mouth almost turned into slow motion.
It took a long time to put a piece of beef into the wide-open mouth.
Shen Pianpian: ...
Shen Pianxian was a little overwhelmed. She scratched her hair with a headache.
"I didn't ask you to go that slow. Just a little slower is enough. Just chew a few more times."
The girl then stuffed her food back to her normal speed, but this time, her chewing became very mechanical, like a robot following a command, counting and chewing dozens of times before swallowing.
Shen Pianpian: ...
Never mind. It’s up to you.
As long as it fills my stomach, it's fine.
Miss Shen continued to peel the paper in self-abandonment, occasionally looking up at her.
The girl's expression was still stiff, but her eyes were not as alert as at the beginning.
Shen Pianpian then began to try to communicate with her.
As she peeled off the colorful packaging, she spoke in a very gentle and leisurely tone,
"My name is Shen Pianpian, the Pianpian of butterfly dance. What's your name?"
“…”
"Where do you live? Do you have any relatives in Rome?"
“…”
"I'm actually in Rome for work and will be leaving soon. I hope you can find your family before I go back... or should I say, I hope your family can find you as soon as possible."
“…”
"I think you look pretty, so it's a shame to be so dirty. Do you want to take a shower here later? I'll watch over you?"
“…”
"Is that puppy doll your friend? Why is it missing an ear? It looks weird~"
“…”
The girl didn't answer any of her questions from beginning to end.
But Shen Pianpian continued to chatter incessantly.
In the quiet room, the only sounds were her low, clear voice and the rustling sound of plastic rubbing against each other.
The girl ate in silence, but her brown pupils kept reflecting the girl's chattering profile.
After the girl had swallowed all the snacks, she burped slightly.
Shen Pianpian smiled, then poured a glass of water and handed it to her.
The girl looked at the water, then looked at Shen Pianpian, and after a moment she took it and drank it down.
