"No, no!"
She hurriedly bowed her head to eat. Though there was clearly nothing on the fork, she still brought it to her mouth and bit down hard.
There was a clink as her tooth and the steel fork collided, causing her gums to ache.
"Idiot!" Zimo frowned in annoyance, "Can you focus, please?"
How could this be any more ridiculous, encountering a mishap just by eating a meal.
Luo Xiaoqian sucked in a breath of cool air and resentfully speared a dumpling into her mouth.
How could she be blamed? Instead of eating peacefully, he distracted her with his smiling. It would have been fine if his smile was simply as radiant as the sun, but what was with that electricity he was firing from his eyes? His gaze suggested as if he had fallen in love with her.
Love?!
When that word flickered through her mind, she bit her tongue yet again.
Could he really have fallen for her?!
No, impossible!
Maybe he felt that he had wronged her that day and was feeling a bit guilty. That’s why he had been nicer to her these past few days. Yes, that had to be it.
Across from her, Zimo watched her begin to space out again, his face betraying a hint of anger.
"I have a meeting this afternoon. Can you please just concentrate?"
See, there was the fierce look on his face, wasn’t there?
Having been scolded by him, Luo Xiaoqian actually felt more at ease.
She would rather have him scold her. She found it more normal. When he was nice to her, she really couldn’t handle it.
"Right away, right away!"
She smiled at him and immediately devoted all her attention to the momentous task of eating.
