At the breakfast table.
Ye Yuning sipped her milk while looking at Xiao Linye.
Feeling her gaze, Xiao Linye asked, "Why are you staring at me? Is the breakfast not good?"
"It's delicious."
The small cakes from yesterday were still there; Xiao Linye had just toasted them again, so they were still crisp and flaky.
"Then what are you looking at?" Xiao Linye asked.
"There's something I think I need to tell you."
"What is it?"
Seeing her serious expression, Xiao Linye also looked up at her.
Ye Yuning cleared her throat twice. "This has to do with your Seventh Master."
Whenever she mentioned this Seventh Master, Ye Yuning looked as if she'd seen a ghost.
This change immediately stiffened Xiao Linye's expression. "It has to do with him?!"
Ye Yuning nodded. "Yes, I don't know what's happened recently, but the Seventh Master's nephew, Xiao Shuo, says I seduced the Seventh Master. If you hear such rumors, please don't believe them."
