The heat in Su Chaoyang's eyes turned into amusement as he heard the girl's stuttered explanation. He made a fist and feigned a cough behind it, trying hard to suppress his laughter.
Who would believe such an explanation? What a foolish girl, and she still refused to admit it.
Now that her daughter had spoken, Mrs. Mu calmed down and pretended as if she hadn't seen anything. She entered and announced, "I came here to tell you something. I spoke to the doctor earlier, and Chaoyang's wound is healing well; he can move around now. We've arranged our return trip to Beijing. We will be taking a private plane back early tomorrow morning."
"Are we leaving tomorrow?" Mu Xiangwan was taken aback.
"What's the matter? Don't you want to go home?"
This was Mu Xiangwan's first visit to Yunnan and despite the fact she didn't want to be kidnapped and hadn't had a chance to sightsee, she frankly couldn't wait to get back to Beijing as soon as possible.
