Holding tight to a tobacco pipe, the person behind Meng Chengjun was no less surprised. He tore through the crowd, stepped forward, and looked at Xu Lan with mixed feelings.
"You're acquainted?" Meng Chengjun asked with a smile as a hint of awkwardness flashed through his face.
"We've worked together before," Hu Cheng spoke before Xu Lan could.
Hu Cheng had a moment of selfishness and betrayed Xu Lan. Even though Sun Fei did not bring the subject up with the others, Hu Cheng knew that Sun Fei distanced himself after all that happened. Ever since Li Xiu was captured, Hu Cheng never saw Xu Lan again, and it made him resent not being able to clarify things to Xu Lan. He blamed himself incessantly whenever he thought about it. He never would have imagined that he would see Xu Lan again someday, and at that moment, his emotions were getting the better of himself.
