Ruby Gregory's heart suddenly rose, her gaze at Steve Burton became somewhat anxious.
Fortunately, Steve did not look at her for long, and extended his hand towards her.
Ruby subtly let out a sigh of relief, but her relief was short-lived, as Steve's hand reaching for the bowl was directly covering hers.
Ruby's heart tightened, she instinctively wanted to pull her hand back, but Steve calmly acted in line with her hand and brought the bowl to his mouth.
The palm of her hand felt the warmth of the soup, and the back of her hand felt the burning heat from Steve's palm.
Ruby felt as if her hand was on fire, tormented.
Ruby was praying in her heart for Steve to finish the soup quickly, but ironically, it was as if Steve had seen through her thoughts, and in opposition to her, he sipped the soup slowly.
