"You can't break rules in clans like mine," added Xia Zhao. "The elders won't allow their descendants to degenerate. It's a matter of morality and we take it very seriously."
"Hmm..." Mu Chenyan hummed in understanding. "Now that I've heard a little about your clan, I can actually understand why you have this upright and dull personality."
"You just met my nephew. Does he look like a dull person to you, Yanzi?" asked Xia Zhao.
"Not really," she replied.
"Because he is anything but dull. He might not be the life of the party like the Xin family's daughter, Xiu but Ru is still someone you'd find a lot interesting." He sighed to himself as he added, "But you are right. Silence is kind of inherited in our clan. Everyone loves it."
"Really?"
"Hm."
Mu Chenyan played with the buttons of his shirt and he let her be. She was thinking something and he didn't even ask her to share because eventually, she will spill in front of him.
