Not even the loud din per Na's voice fro turned his head and saw Feng Na walking up to hi s Na stopped beside hiot to inforuy behind hilanced at the counter, which was now unoccupiedThe guy in front of hi srab some food first, then we'll talk”
Ten minutes later, they found a table and sat doith their trays
”SoWhat did you forget to infor is—”
Feng Na suddenly stopped talking and stared at hi lowered his spoon fro Na exhaled sharply
”OkaySeriouslyWhat is up with you?” Feng Na asked, waving her hand over his tray
Li Yundong glanced down at his tray and studied it for aweird there; it was just food
”I don't understand”
Feng Na frowned”You justYou'reI don't knowIt's like you’ve become a different personEven the way you eat is co Na waved her hand about”You used to just gobble down everythingBut now, you're eating like you're some sophisticated princess fro Na's description, then stopped laughing when he saw that Feng Na wasn't laughing with hi
He cleared his throat”Coed”It's just a healthier way to eat, that's all”
”Seriously, palWhat on earth happened to you during the suedThen you started carrying this strange object around in your bagAnd now even the way you're eating is different?”
Suddenly, Feng Na's eyes ide”Did…” She paused to give hi happened between you and Su Chan?”
Li Yundong could feel his brows rising to his hairline, though he said nothing
Feng Na cleared her throat”I- I ether whenever you were on campusBut she hasn't been around since the start of this seedsmiled”That Su Chan and I broke up, and then in order to nursearound campus with a bulky object on my back?”
”OkayIt does sound a bit ridiculous when you put it that way…”

”New habits…” Feng Na eyed hiht”
”Ever wondered e should all eat slowly?” Li Yundong asked, steering the conversation away
”Better for digestion, I guess?” Feng Na said
”True,” Li Yundong said with a nod”But why is it better for digestion if we slohen we eat?” He shrugged”After all, the food still ends up in the sto Na chuckled”Who do you think I am? A kid?” She rolled her eyes”It's easier for food to be absorbed if it's chewed into smaller pieces”
”That explanation is correctBut…” Li Yundong raised a finger”It's inco Na frowned in confusion
”Your explanation only touched on one of the key points,” Li Yundong clarified”There are other i Na's frown deepened”What other points are there?”
Li Yundong ser”HereLet me ask you a few more questionsHow do you think the stoestive functions? And what about the intestines? How do they work?”
”What? That's it? Those are your questions?” Feng Na snorted, then shot him an incredulous look”But the questions are so si raised his brows”Then by all estive syste Na said as though she knew the answer by heart, ”food will be churned and broken down into sastricenzyestion processAfter that, everything will benodded approvingly”And what about the s Na looked a bit offended at the question”That's where the absorption of nutrients will take place, of course”
Li Yundong sastricNa's face”Huh? You redient?”
Li Yundong chuckled”Well, sort of”
Feng Na went silent in thoughtMoli” (T/N: Wei Dongli is a brand of so this as an idea of a joke because Wei liforce, which fits the context because they were talking about what drives the stomach muscles to work; like I said, the author's intent is to use it as a joke)
Li Yundong chuckled”Did you want to work in a TV station so badly that you spent ti Na laughed”OkayFineI give upWhat's this supposed secret ingredient” Feng Na's eyes ide”Oh! Blood!” She looked towards Li Yundong, her eyes gleao,” Li Yundong said with a nod”And do you knohat drives blood movement?”
”Who do you take”The pu of the heart of course!”
”Okay, okay…” Li Yundong raised his paluess I should've worded that question differently” He lowered his hands and cleared his throat”What I meant to ask is what i Na stared at him blankly
”Okay fineI'll just tell you,” Li Yundong said”SoAccording to Traditional Chinese Medicine, that's one of the functions of our Qi”
Feng Na gave hihtSo what does that have to do with the e eat?”
Li Yundong smiled”OkayLet's try an experi Na's interest as she suddenly leaned forward and stared at hi pulled in a deep breath, sucking in asNa frowned in confusion”What?

”Well, that's it” Feng Na said”What's the point you're trying tosaid with a s Na narrowed her eyes”You're justchuckled”SoBreathing is important for life, correct?”
”Of course”

Feng Na nodded, though she still looked confused
Li Yundong s your food into sestionBut let's take the explanation one step furtherLet us explain—fro your food into s Na stared at hi on his every word
”OkaySo we all agree that breathing is necessary for life, and that there is a limit to the total volume of air we can breathe into our systey to Qi” Li Yundong paused for a moment”Qi is absolutely vital to life, but there is also a li said that, it should be obvious that there is also a limited a raised a finger”But how does this relate to digestion, then? Well, the thing is, you seeEvery time your stomach muscles work to break down food, your body will expend a small amount of Qi and blood for the taskBut what happens when you don't chew your food properly? WellYour stoonna have to work harder to do the job, which means more Qi will have to be expendedAnd if too h for other bodily functions” Li Yundong chuckled when a funny i to fix a leak on a castle's brick hen you've already run out of bricks or any other substitutedown the wall on the castle's east side to fix a broken wall on the castle's west sideIt's silly” Li Yundong waved his hand”AnywayI digressedWhere was IAhOver-expenditure of Qi for digestionRightThis is exactly why those who gobble down their food when they are young tend to experience health proble their later yearsThe way they eat leads to Qi insufficiencyYou see?

”Nothing, it's just” Feng Na shook her headThen, she sit practitioner of TCM, you know? Or so chuckled at the Taoist priest reotta be honest, Zhenren Li”
Li Yundong raised a brow at the Zhenren title

Li Yundong laughedFunny how he'd just run into one of the ”fortunate” recipients of Su Chan's diagnoses
”But now, after hearing that little lecture yours, I think I' just sThat wasn't true back then, when Su Chan was giving those diagnosesBut at least it was true now after he'd read all those ancient texts
