The old man nodded. It was already good that he had come back; he did not want to expect too much.
Auntie Shen went upstairs, gently knocking on the door.
Che Huan had just gone to the bathroom to wash her hands.
Huo Jinnan walked to the door, opened it, and glanced at Auntie Shen, simply handing over the empty plate and bowl, "Another serving."
"Yes, Second Young Master." Auntie Shen bowed her head as she took them, not daring to look at the Second Young Master. The thought of the look he had given her earlier still terrified her.
She hurried downstairs with the plate and bowl in hand.
Huo Bei glanced over and noticed that Auntie Shen did not replace the dining ware. Were the gentleman and Miss Che sharing a set?
Wasn't the gentleman always a stickler for cleanliness?
Soon, Auntie Shen served the meal and carried it upstairs.
Huo Bei watched without saying anything, his gaze shifting to the little master.
