"Anna, you don't need to be so reserved. Come, have some fruit first." Xia Zhiyun placed a cut fruit platter on the coffee table and then sat down on another sofa.
"Okay." Anna nodded and smiled, not being overly polite. She leaned forward, picked up a cherry, and asked, "How come I don't see Xiyan around?"
Xia Zhiyun casually replied, "Oh, she's out on a movie date with Ou Jue."
Anna's hand, while eating the fruit, paused slightly.
She had wanted to invite Ou Jue to watch a play today, but he told her he was busy with work.
He even told her to rest and take care of herself at home.
But then... he took Xiyan out to watch a movie.
Xia Zhiyun looked at Anna and asked lovingly, "I heard you grew up in Country S?"
"Yes." Anna put down the fruit in her hand and nodded.
"Then... what about your parents now?"
"They passed away a year ago due to an accident."
"And you've been traveling around ever since?"
"Yes..." Anna nodded.
