Five scoops. It only took Mu Fan five scoops to finish an entire meal box. He could feel his bones becoming lighter as he sensed the thrill from his stomach quickly absorbing the nutrients from the food. It was like a dry farm finally absorbing nutritious water.

Mu Fan’s eyes reddened as he stared at the next meal box, wondering why he didn’t come here earlier. He was so focused that he didn’t realize the people around him were starting to notice him.

He finished the second meal box in four scoops and finished the third meal with another four scoops. That slim figure of his was like a black hole; his stomach didn’t even bulge a bit from three boxes of compressed nutritious meals.

A bald guy who sat across from him was just halfway through his first meal box as he ate one spoonful at a time. His spoon froze in mid-air as he watched Mu Fan finish his three meal boxes in an instant. Mu Fan only paused a bit before he stood up and grabbed himself a big cup of water. Gulp! He then chugged down the water and walked straight towards the meal counter again.

He even drank a large cup of water! Isn’t he going to feel bloated from that? The bald guy’s jaw dropped. It only took him a few minutes… No, one minute to finish three meal boxes! And with that much water, the meal will quickly expand in his stomach! That should send people to the emergency treatment room!

“Ten boxes please, thanks,” Mu Fan said as he stared at the dining staff member in the white hat with desire in his eyes.

The dining staff had just handed another person two meal boxes and was about to wipe his sweat when he saw Mu Fan standing in front of him again.

“Didn’t I give you three already? Finish that before you come again!” He sounded slightly angry. Only about a minute or so has passed since I gave this kid food, and he’s back here again. Is he playing with me?

“I did finish them. Please give me another ten boxes, thank you,” Mu Fan said respectfully. Even though he came from a poor background, his adoptive parents had taught him well to always appreciate others and to treat people with respect.

The dining staff with the white hat looked over Mu Fan’s shoulder and saw three empty meal boxes by where he had sat, and next to that was a bald guy with a spoon in his hand and his jaw dropped.

Mu Fan’s actions already attracted more attention from that group of people; they originally thought that he was going to make a fool out of himself in about ten minutes, but they just sat down when they saw him up at the counter again.

The dining staff couldn’t really wrap his mind around the situation, but he handed over more meal boxes blankly as he reminded Mu Fan out of kindness. “I’ll give you another three boxes. It’s not good to eat too much, you know.”

“It’s missing seven more.” Mu Fan stood still and continued to stare at the dining staff with a white hat with desire in his eyes.

“Oh… Alright…” The dining staff felt uneasy from Mu Fan’s glare and handed him the rest of the nutritious meal boxes in a stiff manner.

Then, Mu Fan held the ten boxes in his arms and turned around as he was about to head back. Only now did he notice that everyone was standing still in the cafeteria and staring at him. Seeing the pairs of eyes looking in his direction, Mu Fan thought that they wanted his meal boxes. He protectively tightened his arms around the meal boxes, telling others that those were his and that they couldn’t steal these boxes from him.

Everyone was in shock, especially Jereff as he looked down at his two empty meal boxes and then looked back up at Mu Fan’s half-meter tall stack of meal boxes; he suddenly felt bloated.

“What. The. Hell!”

“Is he even human?!”

“Is he a star beast in disguise with a sheet of human skin? Look at how skinny he is, and yet he’s eating more than Jereff!”

“He definitely won’t finish,” someone said confidently to themselves.

“But what if he really can finish all that?” a person next to him reminded kindly.

“Huh? There’s no way!!” a few other people murmured quietly in disbelief.

Mu Fan returned to his seat and organized his ten meal boxes into two rows. He was just about to take a bite when he saw the bald guy who sat diagonally across from him staring at him with his mouth open. Instinctively, he pulled his meal boxes even closer to himself.

…

Five minutes later, the crowd in the cafeteria was sent into an uproar.

“Oh my god!”
