Su Qiqi was already hungry; as she started eating, she forgot entirely about her bad mood. Her empty lunch box made her experience feel a bit like an absurd situation.
Su Qiqi gave a contrived cough, pretending to casually stash away the lunch box into her bag.
Jin Muchen took in every one of her actions, finding her amusing, "If you're hungry, you should come and eat earlier."
"I wasn't hungry initially." Su Qiqi retorted, seeming not very confident.
"Hmm."
Jin Muchen glanced at the lunch bag with a playful intention, "Indeed you're not that hungry."
"Jin Muchen!"
Su Qiqi felt mortified and tried to cover his mouth with her hand, but in her haste, she unintentionally grabbed his bow tie instead.
In a fluster, Su Qiqi tried to pull her hand away, her fingers ended up more tangled in his bow tie, as if in a maze.
Because her hand got caught, Su Qiqi was physically drawn closer to Jin Muchen which made him cautious about her balance and he put his right hand on her waist.
