Lu Jinchen glanced upstairs and frowned. "She's probably in her room getting ready. She'll be here in a few minutes," he said, fully confident in Xia Yuqing's military-grade discipline.
After just a few days of living with her, he realized she was practically a soldier in disguise. She woke up on time, ate on time, trained for an hour, ran around the mansion. Her schedule was so precise it would put actual soldiers to shame.
While he did notice small changes here and there recently, though one thing never changed. It was her presence at the dining table during breakfast and dinner.
That's why, when Housekeeper Xu brought out the breakfast, and Xia Yuqing was nowhere in sight, Lu Jinchen frowned. Something was off.
Xia Yuqing was always here before breakfast was served. What was keeping her today? His gaze flickered to his mother. Could it be that she was avoiding his mother?
Or was it something else? Did his morning kiss scare her away?
