Just at this moment, Gu Fan arrived. On seeing Ning Qi talking with Qian Ye, he anxiously ran over, intercepting Ning Qi, and asked, "What a coincidence, meeting you so early in the morning."
"Yes, quite a coincidence." Ning Qi tried to appear as natural as possible, then added, "Perhaps it's destiny, so we met."
Hearing this, Gu Fan responded skeptically, "Some encounters are indeed due to destiny, some are carefully arranged by others. I wonder which is your case."
Ning Qi chuckled softly, "Which do you wish it to be?"
Gu Fan was about to speak when Qian Ye tugged at his sleeve, signaling to not prolong the conversation.
"Alright, regardless of whether it's destiny or deliberate, see you around." With that, Gu Fan and Qian Ye left.
After walking some distance, Gu Fan turned to see that Ning Qi hadn't followed them. He found it strange, "Why did Ning Qi come to find you?"
