Xu Ye personally came to open the door. He tidied up and was dressed in a casual white shirt and jeans, looking like your easy-going boy-next-door.
The moment Xu Ye saw Chi Jiao, his eyes lit up. "Jiaojiao, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"I came over immediately after calling you. I didn't take much time," Chi Jiao said.
"But I couldn't wait," Xu Ye whispered before quickly moving aside to make way. "Jiaojiao, don't stand at the doorway. Come in, let's talk inside."
Chi Jiao led Beitang Lie and Chu Wennan into Xu Ye's house.
Just as she entered the hall, Chi Jiao saw Lu Xian sitting on the sofa.
Lu Xian also saw her. She smiled and stood up. "Jiaojiao, long time no see. I've prepared black tea and snacks for you guys. Come and try them."
"Thank you, Auntie." Chi Jiao smiled gently and led the others to sit down.
