Having no other choice, Nanxi forced herself out of bed to get dressed and leave. As she walked into the living room, she saw her uncle Liang Youquan pouring himself some tea. Upon seeing Nanxi, he was taken aback. "You're going out this late?" he asked.
Feeling awkward, Nanxi laughed awkwardly and said, "Actually, uncle, I have something I need to attend to outside right now!"
After a moment's hesitation, she added, "But I'll be back soon, don't worry, nothing bad will happen!"
"Is it Li Weihuan, that kid, coming to look for you?" Liang Youquan asked.
"…" Nanxi blinked in surprise. Why would her uncle guess that?
Earlier, Liang Youquan had overheard Nanxi's phone call with Li Weihuan. So naturally he assumed Li Weihuan was the reason she was stepping out.
Liang Youquan knew all too well the tendencies of young people in love. They craved excitement and romance. It wasn't odd for them to be drawn to each other late at night, consumed by their affection for one another.
