Chapter 239: Him Amongst Commoners

Lu Huaiyu turned off his phone screen after posting it and helped Ning Li to pull out a chair.

"Sit."

He then sat opposite Ning Li.

"Didn't I tell you to eat first? Why did you wait till it was so late?"

"It's not that late."

Ning Li was not very punctual with her meals. She cared even less now since she had been rather busy these past two days.

Lu Huaiyu looked at her and laughed. "Kids need to eat more to grow taller."

Ning Li was speechless.

She was not sure why Lu Huaiyu was so obsessed with her height, or if he had some misunderstanding about her being a "kid".

Ning Li retorted softly. "Adults who don't eat on time are also prone to stomach problems."

Lu Huaiyu paused for a moment and gave her a meaningful look.

He was just as she had described, especially this year when his biological clock had been reversed. He could not readjust his sleeping time, so his three meals a day were a little problematic.
