Shi Nianyao cleared her throat. "I- I was just saying, let's drive back to the hotel quickly."
Mo Xicheng couldn't help shaking his head upon hearing this.
It was already 10 p.m. by the time they drove out of the parking lot.
As they were making their way to the hotel, Shi Nianyao's cell phone rang.
She paused briefly and glanced down at the screen. Then she muted the phone.
Noticing this, Mo Xicheng threw her a glance and asked, "Who was that? You act like it was an enemy?"
She replied, "My Big Brother."
Mo Xicheng asked her, "Did you tell your family that you won't be home tonight?"
She lowered her head guiltily and said, "My parents are out of town and there's no one home, so I didn't inform anyone."
Mo Xicheng: …
She sighed and continued, "I'm sure it was that big mouth Su Penghao. How would my brother know I'm not home otherwise?"
Arching his eyebrow, he repeated, "Su Penghao?"
