Yao Ran was stunned for a moment. Almost forgetting where she was, she furrowed her eyebrows. "When did you and Miss Meng get so close?"
It wasn't as if Meng Ling had never seen her before, but the way they had acted then—they were very rude. It was obvious that Meng Ling had once looked down on her, so why were they so close now? Hadn't Yao Tang gone missing for a month? Could they have kept in touch then?
Speaking of which...
Yao Ran turned to Meng Ling. Her demeanor has changed too. Back then, she was meek and silent—only speaking when she needed to. Now, she was more confident. Her eyes were clear, and her voice was controlled. She glanced at her hand.
Had she recovered?
"A friend took me out for dinner, so I came." Yao Tang explained.
