"Are you okay?" Tang Jue's voice seemed detached and indifferent, yet it was actually suppressing a hint of tension.
Xia Yuxun stood upright abruptly, expressionless and said, "Sorry, forgive me, Pudding is just a bit too lively!"
When she uttered such obvious nonsense, Xia Yuxun felt an unspeakable irony within.
She didn't believe for a moment that Tang Jue didn't sense Pudding's peculiarity, but he seemed entirely indifferent nonetheless.
Fortunately, after its excitement, Pudding finally quieted down a bit. It might have sensed its mistress's foul mood and obediently squatted at her feet, gently wagging its tail.
"I'm taking Pudding out for a walk, I won't interrupt your discussions." Saying so, she turned and left.
Pudding followed by her side, glancing back every few steps.
Following along was a certain discreet gaze.
After the brief interruption, the discussions in the living room continued, though everyone's thoughts were no longer really there.
