Xie Jue uttered a single sentence that instantly shut Xie Xun up, leaving his face an extraordinary display of emotions. He opted for silence, which was golden in that moment. Afterward, he fixed his gaze on the platter of meat before him, consuming three pounds of beef for breakfast.
Xie Jue furrowed his brows slightly and ordered the removal of all the meat from the table.
Ruyi reached out to grab his sleeve, but Xie Xun seemed oblivious. Ruyi kicked his legs and cried out anxiously, wondering why his uncle was ignoring him.
Once breakfast was cleared away, the maids served digestion-aiding tea. Xie Xun suddenly remarked, "By these standards, Fang Chuning fits as well."
Xie Jue raised his brows slightly and replied with an expressionless face, "Do you want to continue this conversation?"
"No!" Xie Xun responded decisively, "This topic ends here!"
