"My phone is out of battery," Ye Jiqing was clearly lying.
Both Beichen and I were watching him, as he made the transfer to me by hand.
Ye Jiqing's mother, different from the strong presence she showed to outsiders, was exceptionally gentle, "Qingqing, you've lost weight, even your stubble has grown out. What have you been doing these days?"
"These two behind me, are they your friends, Qingqing?" Ye Jiqing's father noticed Beichen and me.
A flicker of embarrassment crossed Ye Jiqing's face as he was about to introduce me.
I spoke up first, "My name is Chen Yuanyuan, and the person next to me is my friend Beichen. We're both from Spring Wind Town."
"Oh, we recently had some issues at home. I don't know if you two are here to visit or for something else?" Ye Jiqing's father apparently didn't want to entertain guests at his home at this time.
The death of Xia Xi must have had some impact on the Ye family.
