"I can't do tonight!"
Yang Linglong held the phone in one hand, a blissful grin on her face as she gripped the steering wheel.
Receiving an unexpected call from Lin Fan, her heart was filled with delight.
"Did you make a date with a man?"
Lin Fan said with a smile.
The silly girl had chosen a meeting place extraordinarily far from the city center.
It's not like she was meeting a spy in a deserted wilderness.
So he decided to change the location.
"How is that possible? I'm a 'sea maiden,' you know. Tonight, my family is having a gathering... My mom insists on making dumplings... She's urging me to come home and help."
Yang Linglong blushed, feeling somewhat guilty.
"Sea maiden or not, I don't know, but I do know you seem to love to brag,"
Lin Fan said with a wry smile.
Last night, she had told a different story in front of Ning Mengyao.
"Alright, alright, let's drop it. I'm home now. I'll come to find you after I've had the dumplings!"
