Xia Liyou took a deep breath, steadying herself, and lifted her head with a cold and expressionless face, calmly saying, "If you want to ask about Ziqian, then just ask. As long as you don't take him away, we can discuss anything."
Seeing that she seemed to want to genuinely talk, Ou Chengtian relaxed a bit and smiled, hoping to ease the tension.
But Xia Liyou didn't play along. Her face remained serious, as if they were discussing a matter of life and death.
At that moment, all the lights in the screening room went out. The sound coming from the speakers added a little liveliness to the previously silent atmosphere.
At the last moment, two couples walked in and took their seats in the second and third rows.
Because their seats were towards the back and the movie sounds drowned out their words, there was no need to worry about being overheard.
Ou Chengtian, unable to see Xia Liyou's stern face, relaxed further as he spoke.
