Xia smiled at him mischievously. Imitated Pei Yuchi's smile.
Yang Haoran saw a trace of disappointment flash across Xia's eyebrows, and it disappeared in an instant. She smiled and looked away, nodding slightly, tacitly avoiding embarrassment.
He returned to his room gently, and hot water poured on his shoulders and neck, which were already sore and stiff from working all night. He calmed his breathing slightly, closed his eyes and let the water soothe away his boredom.
This home subconsciously became the harbor in his heart. Thinking of the trust and expectations that Shia had given me, I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and even more dissatisfied with myself.
He sighed and gently massaged the sore area. The fresh water and the slowly rising heat seemed to take away some of the distracting thoughts in his heart.

Pei Yuchi looked at Yang Haoran. He reached out and patted Yang Haoran's shoulder gently.
Shia broke the silence. She picked up her chopsticks and said to everyone with a smile: "Let's eat first!"
Shia smiled and served Pei Yuchi a bowl of bamboo shoots. Silk sea cucumber soup, and personally selected a piece of tender chicken leg meat and put it into Yang Haoran's bowl.
He whispered to Yang Haoran: "Haoran, eat more vegetables."
Yang Haoran raised his head, nodded slightly, took the chicken legs in a bowl, and slowly put them in I took a bite and tasted it.
Yang Haoran felt warm in his heart when he saw Xia's behavior as if she were treating her family.
