Gu Xiaoxi could smell the savory aroma of the food from afar.
She strode forward and, upon seeing the meat on Quan Shaoqing's plate, drooled with longing. "I want to eat, I want to eat..."
Quan Shaoqing nodded.
Jin Xiao took the order and had a serving of food delivered to Gu Xiaoxi.
Afterward, she sat across from Quan Shaoqing and began devouring the meat in large chunks.
"Gu Xiaoxi!"
"Hmm?" Gu Xiaoxi mumbled, her mouth full of meat, her words unclear.
"Didn't your father teach you any dining etiquette?" Quan Shaoqing put down his utensils, casually picked up the red wine from the table, and looked up at Gu Xiaoxi.
"My father? He died a long time ago." As soon as Gu Xiaoxi finished speaking, she realized that wasn't quite right. Looking up at Quan Shaoqing, she emphasized, "No, I mean he abandoned me a long time ago."
"Then where is your family from? What's your father's name?" Quan Shaoqing asked again.
