Li Xiaoyao escorted Lin Yuanyuan all the way to the front door of her villa. Lin Yuanyuan got out of the car, didn't look back, and went straight into the villa.
Li Xiaoyao didn't leave until he saw the lights inside the villa turn on. He then stepped on the gas and drove away.
Just as he left the residential complex, Li Xiaoyao's phone suddenly rang. Picking it up, he saw it was a call from Lin Yuanyuan.
"What's up? Did you leave something in the car?"
Lin Yuanyuan responded with just two words: "Come back."
"Huh? What?"
"I said, come back. Are you deaf?" She hung up after dropping this line.
Staring blankly at his phone, Li Xiaoyao smacked his head, his senses returning instantly. Could it be that she had come around?
Indeed, Lin Yuanyuan had figured things out. Ever since Li Xiaoyao mentioned the so-called price in the car, she had been wrestling with the decision.
After agonizing over it for more than an hour, Lin Yuanyuan finally stopped fretting.
