In an instant, Pei Zhiyao's expression fell.
His warning gaze was sharp, although his face remained calm.
Those phoenix-like eyes were especially terrifying.
It seemed as if, in the next second, he could see right through Liang Yu.
"It was a work call, you saw it wrong."
Since Pei Zhiyao had said so, Liang Yu didn't feel it was appropriate to say too much.
She lowered her gaze, shifting her eyes away from the cellphone.
Little did she know, behind that calm exterior, Liang Yu harbored many layers of thought.
"Let's end today's conversation here."
Pei Zhiyao took the initiative to end the topic, preventing Liang Yu from continuing.
"If you have anything to say, we'll talk on the phone."
"Then I'll walk out with you."
The meal remained uneaten as the two of them left, one after the other.
However, Wen Mian witnessed this entire scene from behind them.
She couldn't imagine why Pei Zhiyao, after clearly seeing the missed call, chose to ignore it.
