Jian Xiaofei bit her lip, her gaze darting between Andromeda's composed expression and the door. With a small, hesitant nod, she mumbled a goodbye and exited, leaving Andromeda alone with the weight of her decision.
A minute ticked by, the silence broken only by the soft hum of the air conditioner. Then, a light rap on the door shattered the stillness. Andromeda took a deep breath, straightening in her chair and steeling herself, before calling out, "Come in."
The door creaked open, and Renshu Ru walked in. Time seemed to stand still for a moment as Andromeda watched him approach.
Dressed in a sharp, charcoal gray suit, his dark hair perfectly styled, he looked the same as ever, tall and broad-shouldered, Renshu Ru exuded an air of quiet confidence that seemed at odds with the nervous tremor in his hands.
