Su Yue was still fretting when her phone vibrated.
She glanced at the screen and saw a text from Jiao Chen.
'Come down.'
Come down? Why did he ask her to come down? Su Yue was feeling confused when she remembered she was at the dormitory.
Was he back already?
She rose and climbed off her bed. She walked to the balcony and peered down. Jiao Chen was standing there in a white shirt and a pair of black pants. He was holding a white plastic bag.
She typed quickly. 'Okay.'
Su Yue put on her slippers and hastily pushed the door. In her haste, she forgot all about the steps.
She put her foot forward and missed a step.
"Be careful!"
Jiao Chen darted towards her in a flash, but it was still too late. Su Yue screamed as she fell to the ground. Her knees landed first followed by her hands.
Her pants were torn as a result of her fall and hurt her hands as well.
