"Hmm? Why do you look shocked?" Zhin asked, confused by Qiao Daiyu's sudden reaction. "You don't like the food?"
"Ah... nothing... just a thought," she replied, quickly composing herself.
Zhin, though curious about her sudden change in demeanor, decided not to press the matter. He had learned that Qiao Daiyu often had her own mysterious ways, and he trusted her judgment.
Both of them finished their breakfast in silence, each lost in their own thoughts.
Meanwhile, Alex and Amelia strolled through the garden of his mansion, enjoying the peaceful morning air.
"This pond was made by Frey and me," Alex explained, gesturing towards the shimmering water feature.
"Ooh... how deep is it?" Amelia asked, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.
"Hmm... how deep? Six meters, I think. I can't quite remember..." Alex replied, a sheepish grin on his face.
