Xia Dabao was so furious that day she almost skipped meals altogether. If she couldn't eat, neither could Xiaocao; no one in the family was allowed to feed Xiaocao.
After understanding the reasons, Yége felt sympathy for Xia Dabao as well. He agreed that Xiaocao's behavior was wrong, so he didn't feed Xiaocao either. However, when Xia Dabao wasn't looking, he threw a bone to Xiaocao, who took the bone and happily trotted back to its den.
Yet, Nan Feng was somewhat surprised.
In the past, Xia Dabao had always been indifferent about the letters from Xiao'ai. She had always treated these letters as a task and never seemed to invest too much emotion into them. During the time Xiao'ai stayed here, though she was always clingy with Xiao'ai, it was clear she treated him like a little brother, much the same as she did with Axian.
Now why would she get so angry over a letter, barely nibbling at her meal before giving up on it?
Could it be that she and Xiao'ai were...?
