However, Chenxing was restless, feeling an increasing heat in her body. She couldn't sit still. All her focus was on chewing the candy. After finishing one, she stretched her arm to grab the candy jar on the table.
"What are you doing?"
"I want to eat more."
Gu Shaocheng followed her gaze to the jar at the corner of the table. Recalling what she had just said, his expression drastically changed. Nevertheless, with a commanding aura, he asked, "The candy you just ate, did you take it from this jar?"
"Uh, yeah, it's really good."
Gu Shaocheng's face changed again: "How many have you eaten?"
"One... just one."
Upon hearing this, Gu Shaocheng's gaze slowly landed on her face.
"Who gave you the right to eat whatever you want from my table?"
The tone of his question wasn't harsh, but the invisible pressure made it unbearable.
Ye Chenxing had no idea what was so severe. She felt discomfort all over just from eating a single piece of candy.
