Lu Lingxiao put down his chopsticks and answered composedly, "I have an older brother who is seven years older than me. He's currently abroad. My parents are in good health. My father is a businessman, and our family's circumstances are fairly decent."
Ye Xi had just taken a sip of water and choked on the words "fairly decent."
He considers that kind of background merely 'fairly decent'?
If his background is just 'fairly decent,' then 99.99% of the people in Y city might as well be living in slums.
Seeing Ye Xi coughing severely, Grandma Ye couldn't help but chide, "You're a grown-up, how can you choke on a sip of water like this?"
No sooner had Grandma Ye's words faded away than Lu Lingxiao reached out his hand and began gently patting Ye Xi's back.
Such an intimate gesture caused even Grandma Ye to be taken aback.
Ye Xi felt uncomfortable in an instant too. She got up in a fluster and said, "Please sit down, I'm going to see if the chicken soup is ready."
