Chapter 790 Her expression grew more awkward, and she let out a light huff, "So what if I did?" Nina crossed her arms and looked at her with a hint of amusement. "Why are you bringingfood? Weren't you trying to kickout just a few days ago?" Arin's pride was visibly bruised. She glanced at Nina and then looked away. "I didn't want you to starve. The village is in shambles, and many people are eating communal meals. When I didn't see you around, I worried you'd starve to death. I don't want another death in our village." The excuse was flimsy. Nina remembered Arin's previous antics and the fact that she had saved Arin's brother. It was probably guilt that prompted Arin to bring her a meal.
Nina walked inside, sat down, and glanced at the food. "There's even meat. Did you bring out your family's best for this?" "Who says that!" Arin followed her inside. "Everyone's eating this. I'm not making any special treatment for you!" Despite her defiant attitude, Arin was still a young girl who couldn't hide her emotions well.

Arin's face lit up with anticipation. "How is it?" Nina nodded. "Not bad." Arin beamed with pride. "Tastes good, right? Probably just as good as the food in your country." Nina asked, "Have you eaten yet?" Arin rubbed her stomach. She had spent all her tmaking this meal for Nina and had forgotten to eat herself. When Nina asked, she realized just how hungry she was.
Nina noticed right away and handed her the bowl of rice. "Here, you eat." Arin hesitated. "If I eat, what will you have?" "I'm on a diet. I'll just have svegetables," Nina replied.
Arin looked at Nina's figure and said, "You need to diet? How do you expect the rest of us to survive?" "Good figures need maintaining," Nina said with a smile. "You should eat. Not eating is a waste, especially under these conditions. Don't waste food." Arin, who secretly wanted to cat with Nina, picked up the bowl. "I know, every grain is hard earned!" She began eating enthusiastically.
"Mm, this is really good!" Arin said, satisfied as she bit into the meat. In their remote area, meat was a rarity that often required hunting wild boar.
Nina watched her, reminded of a little girl. "Eat up, there's plenty." "Mm-hmm," Arin nodded happily. As she was eating, she suddenly put down her bowl and said, "Thank you for saving my brother." "Sean already thanked me. No need to mention it." Arin insisted, "It's different. I'll remember your kindness." Seeing that Nina had put down her utensils, Arin quickly finished her meal. "I'm full." She began to tidy up and head out.

"I know. I have to go up the mountain to gather herbs tomorrow. I need to get back early," Arin replied Them village's destruction had ruined much of their medicinal plants, so they needed to gather more to supply and sell them to make money. Otherwise, they would not even have food to eat in the future.
