Chapter 676: Chapter 676: Modesty

A chill crept up Yu Xia’s spine.

"What’s wrong with you, why are you so distracted while eating?" Xu Ke asked as he looked at the untouched food in front of Yu Xia.

"Are you feeling unwell? You don’t look quite right; perhaps we should go to the hospital for a check-up after eating?" Lin Mengyao said, concerned about Yu Xia’s overly pale lips.

"No, no need, I’m fine," Yu Xia forced a smile at Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao.

"But you don’t look like everything’s fine. What’s going on with you? Are you not adjusting well to the environment in Xizhou?" Lin Mengyao shook her head, looking worriedly at Yu Xia.

Xu Ke also put down his cutlery and said, "If you’re not adjusting to the environment here, we could go somewhere else. I’m still on vacation, we can go wherever you want."

"Really, there’s no need, I’m okay."

"But you look so pale," Lin Mengyao commented as she looked at Yu Xia’s face.

"It’s probably because I accidentally put on too much powder this morning. Isn’t it trendy now to make yourself look fairer?" Yu Xia touched her face and said.

The two didn’t probe further seeing that Yu Xia didn’t want to talk, but they kept it in mind.
