Lu Zheng offered to help, but they all told him not to worry about it, so he had no choice but to sit quietly in the living room sipping tea.
He gently stroked the rim of his teacup, lost in thought.
Lin Xia and Lin Qiu had a silent understanding in the kitchen, one chopping vegetables while the other cooked.
Lin Qiu leaned closer to Lin Xia and whispered, "Sis! After I left, what did Big Brother Lu say to you?"
Lin Xia was busy blanching the cubed pork belly, intending to prepare a dish with it. Without looking up, she answered, "He didn't say anything!"
Lin Qiu pursed her lips with a smile, muttering softly, "I don't believe it!" He didn't say anything yet you blushed all the way to your ears? She thought to herself, surely Big Brother Lu must have said something to her sister!
Lin Xia said, "Whether you believe it or not, there's nothing I can do!" He truly didn't say anything.
