He glanced at Ye Qingning and nodded slightly as a greeting, but his expression quickly turned somewhat cold.
"I have to leave first due to some matters," he said in a deep voice, his tone carrying a hint of undeniable decisiveness, as if he had no interest in the upcoming gathering.
Lin Ruoyun gave him a light reproachful look, her eyes filled with both helplessness and deep indulgence.
"You, really," her voice was soft, yet it overflowed with understanding and forbearance for her husband.
However, she did not linger on him for long, instead, she turned all her attention to Ye Qingning, as if Pei Tianxiong's departure did not affect her much.
"Don't mind him; we came to have a good chat with you." Lin Ruoyun's attitude lightened the atmosphere, and her focus and warmth made Ye Qingning feel a warmth she had never experienced before.
After Pei Tianxiong left, the atmosphere was not affected by his coldness.
