Why Are You So Grumpy?

Ye Yuwei slept for another hour before she dragged herself to the bathroom to wash up. She looked at her pitifully sleep-deprived reflection and was determined to say "no" to Gu Juexi if he ever asked again. 

Ye Yuwei washed up and took out a tube of cream that she had hardly used to cover up her dark circles before going downstairs. She greeted her mother-in-law as she went downstairs and saw Xixi still choosing the plate that she wanted to use for breakfast. Gu Juexi was letting her be while Ye Xicheng was watching the way his father spoiled his sister in disbelief. 

Ye Yuwei reached out to pick the plate nearest to her and put it in front of Xixi. Xixi lifted her head to look at her mother and pursed her lips to protest silently. 

Gu Juexi pulled out a chair for Ye Yuwei and watched as she sat down. "Why are you so grumpy?" 

Ye Yuwei scoffed but immediately brightened up when she saw the dumplings on the table.
