An Xiaomian came to her senses and realized she had actually forgotten to answer Si Yan's question just now. Just as she was about to reply, she noticed that Si Yan's phone was ringing.
Si Yan took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and gave An Xiaomian an apologetic smile, "It's a call from my mom. Sorry, I need to take this."
An Xiaomian nodded hastily, "Mhm."
Si Yan didn't step away from An Xiaomian and continued to sit as he answered the call. However, just a few seconds in, his expression grew even more helpless.
After a minute, the bright smile he had sported was completely gone. He hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and then looked at An Xiaomian across from him, "Xiao Mian, my mom says there's a situation at home and that I need to come back immediately, so..."
"It's okay, you should go back. I'm about to head home myself," An Xiaomian didn't dare to delay Si Yan's time, especially since it was due to a family matter.
