Upon hearing this, everyone felt uneasy, and the room fell silent for a moment.
After a long while, Sister Hong warmly stepped forward to greet him, saying, "Teacher Sheng is here? Please have a seat." She pulled and tugged at Sheng Wenzhi to the seat next to Shang Yechu.
Shang Yechu quickly moved aside, making room for Sheng Wenzhi. Gu Wenhua took out a new pair of chopsticks and set them out for Shang Yechu, glancing nervously at Sheng Wenzhi as she did so.
Apart from Shang Yechu, the other four pairs of eyes were all fixed on the author, fearing that he might suddenly lose his temper and make a scene.
Sheng Wenzhi sat silently in his seat, being scrutinized by four pairs of eyes, without reacting at all.
Shang Yechu was also very curious about what he was up to. Why, after a few rounds of drinks, did he suddenly join in this strange commotion? But she absolutely couldn't take the initiative to observe Sheng Wenzhi. She simply stuck out her neck and calmly swallowed her food, occasionally observing Sheng Wenzhi's reaction from his reflection on the glass table.
Sheng Wenzhi was much thinner than before, with bones protruding from his hands. It looked like he had been on a hunger strike for some time. However, his complexion was still acceptable, and his mental state was surprisingly good.
A silent stalemate ensued at the dinner table.
Suddenly, Sheng Wenzhi picked up a wet tissue from the table and wiped his hands.

Under the watchful eyes of five people, Sheng Wenzhi picked up a piece of cold food and slowly chewed it.
Hongjie and the others looked at each other, wondering what was going on.
Sheng Wenzhi swallowed the cold dish, got up, picked up the teapot, and poured himself a glass of water. After drinking the water, he picked up a piece of steamed bun with his chopsticks and took a small bite.
Is Teacher Sheng hungry?
I thought a major showdown was inevitable, but unexpectedly, Teacher Sheng started eating and drinking. Could it be that he really just happened to be passing by and was just mooching a meal?
For a moment, only Sheng Wenzhi remained at the dining table, eating and drinking tea, while Hong Jie and the others stared blankly at him. Gu Wenhua glanced at Shang Yechu's expression, fearing she might clash with Sheng Wenzhi; Shang Yechu lowered her eyes, her face cold and stiff.
A suffocating awkwardness froze on the table. Fatty Zhang desperately tried to signal to Sister Hong, who rolled her eyes; he then tried to signal to Huang Feizhang, who shrugged, meaning, "Don't ask me, I only know how to fight." Left with no other option, Fatty Zhang looked to Shang Yechu, hoping she would give him some instructions.
Shang Yechu slowly picked up her teacup, took a sip, and said, "Where were we?"
Huang Feizhang, completely lacking in tact, said, "Could you please—"
