“This chicken weighs over three pounds, I can’t finish it all by myself. It’s not the dead of winter anymore, it will spoil if left overnight.”
Song Jingzhou wasn't stupid; he could tell that Su Qingci was preoccupied with something.
He reached out and pinched her cheek.
"Nothing is more important than eating. I've finally managed to gain some weight, I don't want it to go down again."
"Look, it's so plump and looks much prettier than when it was malnourished."
