This speech left everyone at the scene dumbfounded, the atmosphere extremely awkward! Li Baiwan tried hard to muster a smile: "This Mr. Liu really loves joking around!"
Tian Xin noticed Li Baiwan's tone and expression were off, and hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Well, President Liu, you've been sitting here for quite a while and haven't eaten a thing. Come, come, come, sit down!"
She pulled Liu Xin down to a seat and introduced the dishes on the table: "You've seen the world, and we don't have anything too fancy here. But this steamed bowl is not bad, you should try it!"
She turned the steamed bowl toward Liu Xin, smiling and signaling him with her eyes.
"It's quite good!" Liu Xin, giving face to Tian Xin, sat down and ate a few bites of the dishes, easing the earlier awkwardness.
