Early in the morning, Lin Xiangwan, dressed in her light green trench coat and jeans she had bought the day before, stepped out of her room.
She deliberately made sure to step out when neither he nor the kids were around, carefully tip-toeing down the stairs.
Just as she reached the living room, she was surprised to see a man sitting on the couch, having a phone conversation.
He looked over at her.
Lin Xiangwan's heart shivered, halting her steps involuntarily.
He hasn't gone to work?
By then, he had ended his call.
"Going out?" Qin Muchuan asked.
Lin Xiangwan took a deep breath. "Yes!"
"Where to?"
"Meeting a friend!" Lin Xiangwan maintained her composure, forcing herself to face him calmly.
A twitch appeared at Qin Muchuan's cheek, "To meet what friend? I'll have the driver take you!"
"...I know the way, there's no need!" Lin Xiangwan replied coldly, then headed out.
"I sent your car to the garage for repairs!"
