Pei Shenyan glanced at her and gave a slight smile, neither moving his foot nor admonishing her, letting her step on it.
He placed a piece of venison into her bowl and said, "This is venison hunted by the villagers yesterday; I bought the whole deer."
Li Yuwen suddenly felt uninterested and withdrew her foot.
"Thank you." She glanced at him.
Pei Shenyan was momentarily stunned, and after a while, the smile at the corner of his lips deepened.
The two sat facing each other and finished their meal.
Pei Shenyan was sipping tea to rinse his mouth when the old servant Pei Ji arrived, saying, "Young master, the guests are about to leave."
"I'll be right there." He put down the teacup and said to Li Yuwen, "I'm going to see the guests off, I'll be back soon."
Li Yuwen nodded, "Go ahead."
Without him around, she could feel more at ease.
Pei Shenyan glanced at her, stood up, and followed Pei Ji to the main hall.
