Chapter 131: Too Close
Su Ning was preoccupied during the short 15 minute ride to Kyoto. She had made an excuse to sit beside Allen to give Minshi and Gu YuChen a chance to talk. However, a part of her was feeling quite unsettled and she was unable to pay attention to what Allen was saying.

"Karina? Uhm… Karina?" Allen called out Su Ning's name causing her to snap back to reality.
"Oh! Sorry, Allen. What were you saying?" Su Ning asked apologetically.
"It's alright," the man said with a sheepish grin. "I just wanted to ask what project was it that you wanted to discuss. By the way, did you not get enough sleep last night? You seem out of it." Allen looked at Su Ning with a concerned expression on his face and the latter felt abashed.
