Xia Liyou laughed softly at his jest, paused for a moment, then said seriously, "Thank you for today, really. And for going through the trouble of treating us to a meal, and for driving me home."
"Actually, it's my honor to be able to help a beautiful woman, treat her to a meal, and drive her home. I should be the one thanking you." Ruan Xiangchen tried to make a joke, but Xia Liyou didn't seem to appreciate it, merely pursing her lips without saying anything.
Fearing that Xia Liyou might take him the wrong way, he chuckled awkwardly and explained, "Don't get me wrong. I was just making a casual remark."
Xia Liyou shook her head without uttering a word.
Watching the streetlights flickering in and out of view, Xia Liyou felt a sudden emptiness wash over her.
She wondered, how's Ou Chengtian doing now?
She was startled by her own random thought. Why had Ou Chengtian suddenly popped into her mind?
While she was puzzling over this thought, Xia Liyou's phone rang.
