Bab 184: Explain

"Hey girls." The most difficult challenge has now come at him directly. 

"Hmph, so you finally decided to come back?" Aria sneered, her arms crossed defensively, as she and Leng Zhiqing and Emilia entered the room. 

They were surprised to see Chen Tian here, but Aria and Emilia's expressions changed as they remembered how they had waited for him.

"We've been waiting for you." Leng Zhiqing's glare was just as icy, her voice laced with anger as she added,

"Didn't you send Emilia a text that you were coming?" 

"Sorry, my phone died, so I couldn't let her know," he replied apologetically, feeling a pang of guilt. 

The tension in the room was palpable, and he knew he had a lot of explaining to do.

"But I'm here now, and I promise I'll make it up to both of you." Aria and Leng exchanged skeptical glances.

They wanted to know everything that Chen Tian was hiding from them and why he had kept them waiting without any explanation.
