I didn't want to deal with Zheng Xuaner, the fool, and Zheng Yufei seemed to have felt the awkwardness in the air as well. She patted Zheng Xuaner on the head, "All right, you're grown up now, stop fussing like a child, hurry up and get ready for dinner."
Only then did Zheng Xuaner rise from her embrace, unhurriedly, giving me a defiant look. I was at a loss for words, but with no solution at hand, and finally, at Zheng Yufei's urging, she slowly got up from Zheng Yufei's arms and sluggishly took a seat at the table.
I continued to eat quietly, and for a moment, the air seemed to freeze. Zheng Yufei hurriedly broke the silence, "Xuaner, how's your study going recently?"
At the mention of studying, cracks appeared on Zheng Xuaner's face, and she forced a stiff smile, "Cousin, can we not talk about studies during dinner, please?"
