Li Zhi took a half-step back, clearing a path for him.

"Alright, alright, time for breakfast. After we eat, it's time for homework."
Li Zhi watched Shen Yuan walk into the room and let out a loud hmph.
"You can just put the food on the dining table. I'm going to go brush my teeth and wash my face."
"Yeah, go ahead."
It wasn't until he placed the breakfast on the table that Shen Yuan suddenly realized something.
The boy stiffly turned his neck to look toward Li Zhi's bedroom and swallowed hard.
