"That's really great," Cheng Bingbing couldn't help but smile when she saw Xia Qingtian was willing to keep her company.
It was the happiest, and the most heartfelt smile she had all day.
...
The next day.
Xia Qingtian was still getting ready when she received a call from Cheng Bingbing, confirming whether she had left home or would change her mind at the last minute.
It was clear Cheng Bingbing was really nervous, afraid that Qingtian would stand her up and leave her to face Mrs. Huo alone.
"I'm already up, I'll change clothes in a bit and have some breakfast, then come pick you up," she reassured Cheng Bingbing, saying, "Don't worry, there's still plenty of time before the meeting with Mrs. Huo, we won't be late."
"Mhm," Cheng Bingbing replied, sounding somewhat tense.
