章 1771: Retired After Winning Merit, Honourable Although Defeated (42)

"Why don't you eat up. We won't talk about anything in particular, just have a meal with me. Okay?" Huo Siqian said as he took a seat across from Huo Mian.

The dining table was a seafood feast, with a giant Boston lobster as the centerpiece.

Huo Siqian picked up a ladle and filled a bowl with seafood soup. Gently, he put it in front of Huo Mian. "Drink it while it's hot, it's delicious."

As Huo Siqian finished speaking, he began digging in. He ate slowly and gracefully just like he usually did, like a sophisticated gentleman. But, Huo Mian knew that the person in front of her was merely wearing a mask.

Huo Mian sat across from him without the slightest movement. In all honesty, no matter how hungry she was, and no matter how delicious a feast was placed in front of her, she would have no appetite as long as he was sitting across from her.
