"Thank you for listening and for sharing your thoughts too," said Hyson sincerely.
"Don't even mention it," replied Ru. "Now, hurry up and eat. It's already cold now."
Hyson also focused his attention on eating the crayfish with a light expression this time around. Now, he had nothing on his mind. He just felt like he wasted too much time thinking tonight. His mind must be so tired too.
"I just noticed," started Hyson once he finished eating and took off his gloves. "Your surname is Ximen? Isn't your clan the Xia clan?"
"Xia clan is my mother's family. That's where I grew up," answered Ru.
"By the way, what really is your identity? Why do you need so many bodyguards?"
"Didn't I tell you that they aren't here to protect me?" asked Ru. "This young master doesn't need their help. Have you seen such leisurely bodyguards?"
"I haven't," answered Hyson honestly.
