Having an Affair

Qiao Mei did not dare to make any sound as she followed closely behind Xia Wen. He sat on a chair at the side of the living room and looked at her. By right, given this was her house, she should take the master seat opposite the main door. However, in the current situation, she did not have the guts to sit there at all.

"Alright, just sit down. I'm not an evil ghoul. Why are you so afraid?" Xia Wen said in a slightly milder tone.

"You're probably more terrifying than an evil ghoul…" Qiao Mei muttered to herself.

"What did you say?" Xia Wen asked.

"Nothing! I didn't say anything!" Qiao Mei said quickly.

Qiao Mei sat down on the master seat in fear and trepidation, waiting for Xia Wen to speak. He looked at her hands and asked, "How did you get all these things out yourself?"
