Then one minute passed, two minutes passed...Eight minutes passed, nine minutes passed...
Fifteen minutes also passed—
Jian Yufei still didn't appear.
Ruan Tianling's anger was worn away by the lengthy wait.
He figured it's quite normal for women to be half an hour or an hour late.
They need to put on makeup, change their clothes, and do many things before leaving the house. They often dawdle.
He is a man, it's no big deal to wait a bit longer.
Now he was only half an hour over wait time, still not an hour, there was still plenty of time to continue waiting.
Ruan Tianling tried to relax. He leaned back in his chair, resting a leg on his knee, hands interlaced on top. His posture was casual and nonchalant.
But no matter how relaxed he tried to appear, he couldn't dispel the oppressive weight in his eyes.
He began to imagine why Jian Yufei wasn't coming.
Whether she got caught in traffic ...or simply forgot their appointment...
Or perhaps, something had happened to her?
