"Thank you, Brother." The girl no longer fretted over the green beans.
Suddenly, the woman said, "You're much more cheerful than before."
Fable's movements paused, his expression froze for a moment, then returned to normal.
Damn, was this character introverted before? Wait, will being so cheerful blow my cover? It shouldn't, right? They don't seem to have noticed my true identity. Maybe I should go bolder?
Fable calmly put down the chopsticks, then replied in a highly impatient tone:
"Can you not talk about this while eating?"
To match his tone, he stared furiously into the woman's eyes, which had only sclera.
Instantly, the atmosphere at the dining table became tense. The woman's chopstick-holding right hand froze in place, and the girl lowered her head to eat.
A few seconds passed, and after the girl put down her chopsticks, she said, "I'm done eating," and then ran off as if escaping.
