Wen Xiaojian's dark face was covered in wrinkles. He smiled and waved his hand, saying:
"Dad has already eaten, don't worry about me. You've been working hard all day, hurry up and finish eating and rest."
Looking at the three of them enjoying themselves, Wen Zhaoye always felt like he was the outsider.
He lowered his long eyelashes, sat at the dining table, and ate his rice with gusto. A soft, clear voice reached his ears.

Wen Jiaojiao answered very quickly upon hearing this:
