Sensing her slight movement, Mu Tianye slightly turned his face, and she returned the gesture with a smile.
"What's wrong?"
Mu Tianye asked, puzzled.
Ning Xiaofei just smiled, not bothering to explain. Seeing her long hair getting in the way, he lifted a hand to tuck it behind her ear and casually wiped away a bit of juice stain from the corner of her lips.
The action was very natural, not forced or deliberate.
Across from them, Xicheng just happened to look up and catch this small detail. He paused in surprise for two seconds, then bowed his head and continued eating.
After a moment, Xicheng stood up.
"You guys eat slowly, I have something to attend to upstairs. Ye Qiao, Mike, come find me upstairs after your training."
Judy was quick to follow him as he left.
By then, Ning Xiaofei had also finished her juice, and turned to Ji Mo.
"Shall we go for a walk later?"
"Sure."
Ji Mo agreed with a smile.
So, after the meal, everyone rose from their seats.
