Chi Yue saw Qiao Dongyang walk out of the crowd and then he was called away.
She and Quan Shaoteng went to the visitation room. Probably because Quan Shaoteng had already given a heads-up, the staff were very polite, even bringing tea for the guests, a cup for each, steaming hot, as a friendly gesture. Chi Yue kept thanking them, inexplicably wanting to secure a good impression for Qiao Dongyang in front of these people, even though she knew it was futile.
"The management here is really humane. Thank you!"
"Don't mention it. It's our job. He will be arriving soon, please wait a moment."
"Thank you!"
Chi Yue held the cup and sipped the water slowly, her mind replaying the scene of Qiao Dongyang standing up in the dense crowd. She suddenly felt nervous, fearing their reunion would have him in handcuffs, maybe even ankle shackles—his pride wouldn't allow him to show weakness in front of her, where could he possibly put it?
