“Oh?” Pengzhan blinked, not expecting Lin Yi to speak up for Mengyao and Yushu like that.
Even Mengyao herself raised her head curiously at Lin Yi. Her impression of Lin Yi, after all, wasn’t a good one- the guy might not kick them while they were down, but speaking up for her was not something she’d expect from him. She had been treating him very, very poorly today, too.
“There’s something up, Uncle Chu. Perhaps we could talk about this in my room?” Lin Yi didn’t want Mengyao and Yushu too know too much about what was going on- it’d only get them worried.
Pengzhan nodded before turning to Mengyao and Yushu. “Yao Yao, Shu- you two go upstairs and rest- we’re done for today. I have something to discuss with Yi.”
