"Don't like it?"
Xiao Xiao vaguely sensed a shift in the boy's emotions after he ate the candy.
The boy's complexion had already been poor.
So it was hard to tell from his expression how he really felt about the candy.

Without paying close attention, they were hard to catch.
"Huh?"
Xu Enguang panicked for a moment.
How did Eldest Brother know?
