As the few chimes rang, Jiang Tan heard Zhou Yinghuai's voice. It was unsure yet soothingly deep, he said, "Tantan?"
Jiang Tan admits that at the sound of his voice, she couldn't remain completely unmoved.
She lowered her gaze, her eyelashes trembled lightly. After a while, she said in a hoarse voice, "Zhou Yinghuai... I want to see you."
At that time in Weixi's meeting room, the sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Zhou Yinghuai, against all the gathered people, spoke equably, "Now? Alright, I'll come and pick you up."
Then, amidst everyone's surprise, he walked out.
He obviously cared dearly.
Zhao Qi watched Zhou Yinghuai's retreating figure, couldn't help but stand up and follow him, "Mr Zhou, shall I go pick up Miss Jiang instead?"
Zhou Yinghuai said no, quite firmly.
Zhao Qi stopped in his tracks, and this time, he didn't continue to follow.
Jiang Tan went to a fountain near the Chu household to wait for Zhou Yinghuai.
