Chi Yue had intended to return to her room and wait for him to finish eating before coming back to clean up, but he said, "Sit down and eat."
Chi Yue had no choice.
The meal was eaten in a very oppressive atmosphere, although that could have just been how Chi Yue felt.
After dinner, Fu Rongyin rested on the sofa, and Chi Yue went to the kitchen to clean up, deliberately dawdling for a long time, until she could dawdle no longer, and then she went to the living room.
Fu Rongyin leaned on the couch with his eyes closed, looking as if he had already fallen asleep.
Chi Yue hesitated for a moment but still felt that she should drape the nearby blanket over him.
Almost the moment she touched him, Fu Rongyin's eyes snapped open, his hawk-like eyes filled with a frightening chill.
Chi Yue was startled and nervously stepped back, "I... I was just doing it as a matter of course."
The wariness in the man's eyes faded away.
