Reaching her destination, Li Na turned to the driver and said, "You don't have to wait for me. You can just head back."
The driver remained silent, his expression unreadable. Li Na stepped down from the car, closing the door behind her. As the car drove away, she stood outside the closed store, unsure of what to do next.
Li Na reached for her phone and dialed Gong Li's number. The phone rang, and after a few moments, Gong Li picked up. Li Na quickly explained the situation, saying, "I'm here, but it seems like the doors are locked."
Gong Li's voice sounded calm and reassuring. "Don't worry, Li Na. I'll be right there. Give me a moment."
Li Na glanced around, her eyes scanning the area. Minutes later, Gong Li arrived, her footsteps echoing on the pavement. She approached Li Na with a warm smile, her presence bringing a sense of comfort. "Sorry for the delay."
