His eyes lowered as he slightly furrowed his brows, feeling a bit unsettled.
Though he wished to convince himself that he was overthinking things, his natural instincts told him that he shouldn't let Meng Xi'er and Lu Yebai meet anymore.
He felt uneasy.
******************************
Meng Xi'er accompanied Lu Yebai on a tour around the island. The geological survey data had not yet come out, so this time was about observing and planning the island's tourist sites.
Lu Yebai appeared more professional than she had imagined, asking very difficult questions that even left the mayor stumped at times. It was clear that he wasn't just here on a casual stroll.
It seemed that she was overthinking - Lu Yebai was not here to make trouble.
The itinerary ended at three in the afternoon, Meng Xi'er, frail as she was, was nearly out of breath by the time they stopped.
