Oooh, that's a fantastic point that I didn't think of! Maybe that's part why he likes his food to be this elaborate - because it's proof that he has a lot of food now? And he's always really careful with it too. (*looks at your icon* Even with the oranges. :D) Damn, everything about Shen Wei's relationship with food is fascinating. All of this, and also other things, like not liking sweets. Because he only likes this one specific lollipop and nothing else will ever compare. :D

Elaborate? Am I missing something here? Because I can't tell where this is coming from at all.

Yeah, now I'm thinking that what he cooks for Zhao Yunlan is probably not super representative. :D I have no idea what he eats by himself or on a regular day. (And now I really do want to know that. :D)

Do you mean the meal in episode 22? That doesn't seem particularly elaborate either, though for sure more than he'd do in the middle of the day if it wasn't for ZYL. *g*

Yep, that one. :D It's elaborate enough to me, but likely not ~the usual~, yeah. :)
