The trio just got out of the building and entered the car, when Yu Lian got a phone call from her parents. She answered the call with a blank face as if already knowing what the conversation is going to go like. After listening for a while to what a mother had to say, Yu Lian played with the car keys with one hand and with the other hand held her cell phone, and said in a sorry tone, "Oh was it like that, mom? I am so sorry. Please convey my heart felt apologies to Nian Ting. I didn't know that he didn't do that on purpose. But please, I am so sorry. I can not make up for the family dinner tonight. I have a lot going on in my hands now. My boss has burdened me with work. What do I do ...? "
She then listened to her mother, and nodded saying, "Yes. Exactly. Please do that. Thank you, mom. I love you. Bye bye. And she hung up on the call. "
