Then I changed my tone with her because I needed to get her off the phone before Ru Wen came downstairs.
"Listen. I know it's been a while, but I can't help that because I've been very busy."
"Does this have anything to do with that skinny bitch you've been with?"
"No, she has nothing to do with it. You should know that I've been working."
I softened my tone with her.
"Luna, we'll get together as soon as I get back. Understand?"
"Promise me, Mu Kai," she said.
"I promise. I'm going to send an envelope through Gu Min for you. So I'll talk to you soon."
For sure, I can guarantee that's one promise that I have no intention of keeping it actually. I needed to tell her what she wanted to hear to get her off the phone, and I couldn't risk Ru When hearing me.
