Chapter 196: Jelly bean

James joined Wang Shi and Suyin for the amazing Italian he had cooked, keeping Suyin's taste in mind. As Suyin tried to ease the atmosphere with light conversations, unlike other times, James seemed distracted.

"Is everything fine?" she tested him by adding roasted aubergine to his plate. He hates it.

James stopped toying with a fork and snapped out of daze, "Yup," he replied, poking the aubergine with a fork.

"Since when did you start eating aubergine?"

His eyes shifted to the aubergine hanging on the fork and then at Suyin. He understood it was her handiwork to test him. Damn! She can read him like an open book, leaving no space for him to hide. He sighed, "You are one hell of a scary human. Dr. Wang Shi, beware."

"Hm, I like this quality of hers. It's scary but heart-warming." Wang Shi replied, he was remarkably aloof all the time. Other than adding food to Suyin's plate, he showed no other interest.
