To Long Xiaoxi's surprise, a sullen expression formed on Zhong Tian'ai's face as soon as she heard her answer. "You're back?"
"Yeah, I have been for a while."
Zhong Tian'ai retorted, "Why did you come back? I thought you were going to settle down abroad."
Long Xiaoxi's smile vanished, and Zhong Minhe's assistant began to feel awkward as well.
"My home is in A City. My parents, family, and closest friends are all here. Why can't I come back? Regardless of how great it may be overseas, it's nowhere comparable to home."
Zhong Tian'ai questioned, "What are you here for, then?"
Long Xiaoxi retorted, "I'm looking for your brother, not you. Why do you have so many questions?"
Zhong Tian'ai was at a loss for words. Long Xiaoxi thought to herself, What's wrong with Zhong Tian'ai? Why is she so hostile?
Their conversation ended on an unhappy note.
