The loud noise made Shi Mingyue look down.
Little Stone instinctively tried to cover his stomach to stop it from making any more noise.

The moment he pressed his hands to his stomach, an even louder GRUMBLE echoed out.
Little Stone's face flushed red, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
As a beggar, going hungry was a common occurrence, and he had never felt embarrassed by it. But now, standing inside the bright Ming's Restaurant, he felt a little mortified.
"Haha, someone's hungry! Wu Zhao Yu, are any of the flatbreads ready? Bring one out, and give a piece to this little one."
Just then, a cheerful and wonderfully friendly female voice called out.
Ming Lingyi had woken up bright and early today, just in time to have breakfast with everyone.
She had just walked in from the back courtyard when she spotted the little one by Shi Mingyue's feet.
