"I heard you've been keeping this girl by your side lately. Why? Afraid someone will retaliate against her?"
With Huo Ye's persona, Xia Miaomiao didn't know what to say. Before Ye Junqing arrived, the girl was warned by Huo Ye to eat more and speak less. But now that she was being asked a question, not responding would seem very rude, wouldn't it?
After thinking for a moment, with Huo Ye's persona, Xia Miaomiao said, "Mm."
One word. That shouldn't give away anything, right?
Ye Junqing chuckled, seeing that dishes were already brought to the table. He picked up the menu, ordered a few more dishes that Ye Xingguang enjoyed, poured himself a glass of wine, and another for Huo Hanqing, "What have you been busy with lately? I have to schedule a time just to get you to have a meal?"
"My throat hurts, so I haven't been drinking lately." With Huo Ye's persona, Xia Miaomiao tensed up at the sight of the wine glass.
What if I get drunk and say the wrong thing?
