The next day, Yuan Jingxing came to find Ye Chen. It was a day off and Ye Chen did not go to He Weng. While Ye Chen was having breakfast, Jingxing came in.
Ye Xue quickly called out, "Jingxing, come and join us for breakfast quickly."
"I've already had breakfast," Jingxing said.
"But you can't just watch us eat, it makes us uncomfortable." Ye Xue continued, "Hurry up and join us for breakfast."
Only then did Jingxing join them.
Ye Xue had to quickly leave as she was busy with something in the kitchen, leaving Ye Chen and Yuan Jingxing alone.
Jingxing's early arrival was somewhat unexpected for Ye Chen as they had grown distant recently, with Jingxing rarely coming over so early, but he could somewhat guess why.
Ye Chen still asked, "What's the matter?"
"Oh, Zhan Ze wants to see you."
Ye Chen guessed it must be about the incident last night, he nodded in silence after a moment.
"Eat your food, no rush, take your time."
Ye Chen continued to eat.
