"I'll come pick you up." Song Yunchi grabbed the car keys and headed out the door.
Lu Meng curled her lips with disdain. "There's no need to pick me up. I have a driver. Coming all the way here and back—what a waste of time. Wouldn't it be better for us to just meet at the Mu Family's gate?"
"I'm picking you up." Song Yunchi's handsome face darkened.
"Alright, alright. You're impossible."
Half an hour later, Song Yunchi arrived outside the villa. He waited for ten minutes, but Lu Meng still hadn't come out.
He picked up his phone and called her, "Lu Mengmeng, are you ready yet?"
"Mmm..."
A faint sobbing sound came from the other end of the line. Suppressed, yet still trickling out.
She was crying?
Song Yunchi's heart clenched instantly, the tension spreading to every part of his body. His face turned grave, "Are you okay? What happened?"
"I fell... twisted my ankle." Lu Meng sniffled miserably, her voice muffled, tinged with heavy nasal tones.
