"Are you not at work?"
On the phone, Mu Tianye asked gently.
"Yeah."
"I'll come to the company to pick you up."
"No need, I'm not at the company, I'm outside."
"Outside?"
"It's complicated, I'll explain everything when I get home," Ning Xiaofei said as she stepped onto the staircase, continuing to instruct, "Just go home and wait for me, you must wait for me, I have something very important to tell you."
"Okay," the man responded, and after a moment, added, "Don't rush on your way, be careful."
After hanging up, Ning Xiaofei quickened her pace and left the tea house.
Mu's mother was clearly not someone easy to deal with, and wouldn't just give up so easily. The infuriating things she'd just said had all been recorded by her. If Mu Tianye were to hear them and think she was serious, it would be the end of her.
She had to explain everything before Mu's mother could give him the recording, to prevent any misunderstandings.
Upstairs.
