I can only say that he said about me, but I cannot say about him!
Reynaldo ate his meal very politely, and he didn’t have a big appetite. He ate a bowl and then put down his fork.
In the past, Quentin and I used to intentionally bully him. We wouldn’t allow him to pick up food at the table and deliberately placed the dishes he disliked in front of him.
Back then, he used to eat very little each time.
Back then, I used to think it was because of the pressure I put on Quentin that he didn’t dare to eat much, but it turns out his appetite was always that small. I also didn’t know how he grew so tall with such a small appetite.
I felt embarrassed to ask for a second bowl of rice

when I saw him put down his chopsticks.
But the spicy chicken he made was really appetizing and went well with rice.
I had finished the food in my bowl, but I couldn’t bring myself to put down the fork for half a day.
Reynaldo suddenly glanced at me and said, “Didn’t you eat enough?”
“I ate… I am full.”
Forget it, I’d better not eat it. I treated him so badly before, and there’s no guarantee that he won’t take the opportunity to retaliate.
Just as I was about to put down my fork, he suddenly reached out to me and said, “Give me the bowl.”
I silently handed over the bowl.
He deftly served me a bowl of rice and said to me, “You eat first, I’ll make a phone call.”

“Oh, oh…”
As I watched his receding figure walking away, a deep sense of shame surged within me.
Look, just now I once again judged a gentleman’s heart with the mind of a petty person.
He was actually much better than I had imagined, wasn’t he?
I ate two bowls of rice with the spicy chicken dish made by Reynaldo, and I finished the whole plate of spicy chicken as well.
When Reynaldo came in, I was wiping my mouth after having eaten and drunk to my heart’s content.
He glanced at the table, chuckled quietly, but didn’t say anything.
I quickly got up and spontaneously went to tidy up the dishes and chopsticks, but he beat me to it and put them away, telling me to sit obediently.

I looked at him in astonishment.
Isn’t this Reynaldo after becoming successful?
Not only did he cook by himself, but he also washed the dishes by himself?!
Phew!
This man was sometimes good and sometimes bad, making me feel a bit schizophrenic.
Reynaldo worked quickly and soon washed the dishes, and he also tidied up the kitchen spotlessly.
He came out of the kitchen wiping his hands.
I couldn’t help but ask him, “How come you are so good at cooking? Have you learned it?”
He raised his eyes and glanced at me, saying lightly, “When I was young, I often went hungry. Gradually, I learned everything.”
Although he said it lightly, a touch of bitterness

flashed through my heart.
I remember his parents divorced very early, and his dad married a stepmother. Winston was born from the stepmother, and he was highly favored in the Humphrey family.
And he, being heard that no one cared, then had a lot of bad habits, being known as a delinquent by
everyone.
Because of those rumors, I always hated him.
And with what happened after graduation, my bias against him grew even stronger.
But now, it seems that he was not as unbearable as people said.
Although he was sometimes excessive, at this moment, I genuinely felt sorry for him.
I smiled at him comfortingly and said, “You are amazing. Unlike me, when I get hungry, I just wait for someone to feed me.”

Reynaldo chuckled and self–mockingly said, “How could children like you, who were always pampered by their parents, ever go hungry?”
I pursed my lips, not knowing what to say.
I still don’t know how to comfort people. Forget it, I won’t say anything, so as not to accidentally touch his sensitive spot and make him unhappy.
He leaned against the dining table and smoked, while I sat on the sofa watching him.
After both of them remained silent, an awkward atmosphere inexplicably settled in.
After a few minutes of stalemate, I couldn’t help but ask him, “Um, aren’t you going to accompany your moonlight tonight?”
He furrowed his brows and gave me a cold look, saying, “My affairs, you don’t need to worry about.”
Uh!

This man is really unpredictable.
He said that his matters did not need me to handle, and actually, I also did not want to handle them.
