"Dinner is served, Madam."
As the maid announced this Ru's mind immediately spaced out everything else except for the food she was hungry for. After all, she came for the food. No, you came for the woman on the third floor. Her conscious reminded her. So what? Now, I'm here for the food. So, shut up!
"Let's go to the dining room." Old Madam Ji made her way towards the dining hall while Ru trailed behind her happily.
"What took you so long in the comfort room?" Xiao Zhi Ren who was walking beside cheery Ru asked.
Ru gave him a forced smile and said, "Didn't I already explain that I was lost?"
"Oh, and you want me to believe that a self-proclaimed 'genius' like you forgot his way back?" The way he air-quoted the word genius made a vein twitch on Ru's face.
"I wasn't paying attention." Ru tried to shirk away but how could Xiao Zhi Ren let her do that?
"I don't buy your words."
"How ironic!" Ru feigned a gasp and added, "I wasn't selling my words as well."
