There was a strange silence that had taken root in the living room. Grandfather Xiang already had close to zero topics to talk about with Xiang Weimin and now with the addition of Xiang Wai, it was even more difficult. Just what was he supposed to ask them?
He couldn't be disrespectful to their privacy and ask about some personal stuff. After all, they were both adults and capable of making their own decisions. And he couldn't discuss their job as well since they both were in the military. Their jobs couldn't be casually discussed even with family.
Grandfather Xiang picked up the glass of water to moisten his throat.
In the meantime, Xiang Weimin lowered his voice and said to his sister, "Did you come here to compare yourself with Raelle?"
"No," replied Xiang Wai. "I was just casually asking."
"As her elder sister, drop the matter," added Xiang Weimin. "You don't have to dwell over the past that doesn't have anything to do with Raelle."
