Xi Muchen's gaze was fixed straight ahead, seemingly unaffected by Xia Zhenghong's intense stare.
Xia Zhenghong felt a wave of embarrassment. After all, no matter what the man's identity was, he was now his son-in-law. Yet from the beginning till now, the other party had not given him a single glance, which somewhat made him uncomfortable.
"Um... Muchen, did you come to the birthday party with Wanwan this time?" Despite knowing that the other party might not be interested in talking to him, Xia Zhenghong still asked. After all, more than face, he cared about whether his assumption was correct.
"I came by myself."
Came by himself? Xia Zhenghong's eyes lit up as he asked, "I haven't seen you in S City before, are you a local?"
"Yes, but I've only just returned to the country recently," Xi Muchen said with a hint of aloofness in his voice.
Without waiting for Xia Zhenghong to say anything more, Xi Muchen had already turned his head away, cutting off the conversation.
