Gezi was on the phone with Sister Yao, while Chi Huan stood atop the stairs outside the building, from where she could see the parking lot but not exactly where An Ke and the car were.
Her foot halted mid-step, then she drew it back.
She took out her cell phone from her bag and flipped through for a number.
After staring at the string of digits for a long while, she finally made the call.
Lawrence's voice was still as robust as usual, containing a subtlety of weakness that was hard to detect and, as always, unhurried, speaking slowly, "You're reaching out to me, have you two broken up?"
Chi Huan's laugh was cool and indifferent, "Whether we broke up or not, you should have been watching all along, why ask when you already know?"
"Then, what do you want from me?"
He chuckled slowly, "Or could it be, you cannot bear not seeing with your own eyes the person who wants to kill Shiqian for revenge, so you couldn't help but come to probe me?"
Chi Huan didn't speak.
