Seeing Grandma Ye stunned, Lu Lingxiao had already approached her.
He took the needle and thread from Grandma Ye's hand, threaded the needle swiftly, and then handed it back to her, saying, "Grandma, it's threaded now."
Only then did Grandma Ye come back to her senses. She took it from his hand and asked, "Xiaolu, it's so late already, why have you come?"
As she spoke, Grandma Ye glanced behind him at Ye Xi.
Her gaze was questioning—hadn't they split up? How come…
Ye Xi couldn't give Grandma Ye an answer.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere between the two, Grandma Ye found an excuse to ask Lu Lingxiao, "Xiaolu, have you had dinner so late, are you hungry?"
"Hmm."
"She's not hungry."
Lu Lingxiao and Ye Xi replied almost simultaneously, but with different answers.
Grandma Ye glanced at the two of them and could only say, "Then you sit down first, I'll go cook a bowl of noodles for you."
Lu Lingxiao didn't say a word, and the anger on Ye Xi's face had not subsided.
