Xie Yuan lowered his head, his gaze softly fixed on a soda can's pull tab.
His usually stern expression softened in an instant, and the icy aura that surrounded him dissipated.
"Mhm."
Wan Sui glanced at him and then back at Su Miaomiao, tapping on the table.
"Shall we eat first? After all, dog food doesn't fill the stomach."
Seeing that she had managed to deflect the situation, Su Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief and focused on enjoying the hot pot.
When they had almost finished eating, she noticed that Xie Yuan had stopped eating at some point.
She looked at him and then put down her chopsticks and stood up.
"I'm going to buy something..."
Xie Yuan watched her leave, his fingers that were twisting the Buddha beads now gently touching the pull tab, his expression very serious.
As Su Miaomiao walked away, Wan Sui put down her chopsticks.
The smile on her face vanished, and her expression cooled.
"Mr. Xie, although I don't know why you lied to my Miaomiao to get married,"
