Hearing the cold words that came from Soma's mouth made Xiao Lian's body tremble in fright; the sheer pressure from his words almost made her resolve falter in a moment. But, after regaining her mind, she grits her teeth and glares at Soma's eyes.
Soma watched the thing happen, his eyes shrinking into a dangerous state, when suddenly Xiao Lian's body swayed. He ultimately released the pressure state and supported the girl before him.
As the two were in close contact, Xiao Lian stood up and placed her right hand on her abdomen. A cute growl escaped her tummy and echoed in the empty corridor.
"I'm hungry".
Her listless words and her languid expression made Soma retract his seriousness and chuckle, seeing Xiao Lian's usual behavior.
"First, go give back the brooch in your pocket".
"Mm".
