"I'm not sure, but I think his decision to return was an abrupt one. I think it most likely involved her…"
Xiaowang was interrupted by his phone ringing. Placed on top of the car's storage compartment, both Qin Zhi'ai and Xiaowang could see "Master Gu" flash on the screen.
Xiaowang quickly answered the call.
"Yes, Master Gu. We're almost there. Third floor? Okay, see you soon."
After hanging up, he told Qin Zhi'ai, "Master Gu is already waiting for us on the third floor of Baisheng."
Surprised to hear that Gu Yusheng would also be there, Qin Zhi'ai paused before nodding her head.
After Gu Yusheng's call, Xiaowang didn't resume talking and concentrated on driving.
Qin Zhi'ai stared at her hands on her lap for some time before lifting her head to stare out the car window. A thick layer of fog had settled over the city, and her mood was also gray and heavy.
