She was clearly having a meal, but Li Beinian felt like she was on a battlefield.

Seemingly equally curious about Li Beinian's answer, Mu Xichen's gaze swept over and gently fell on her face.
Under Mu Xichen's eyes, Li Beinian's thoughts that had been floating around finally settled down.

Immediately, he looked at Mu Xichen and said in a humored voice, "We are always so different."
From birth, they had been destined to be different.
