"I'm not nervous."
Qi Chao claimed he wasn't nervous, yet his uncoordinated gait betrayed his unease.
Chi Yu, choosing not to expose him, exchanged a few more words before ending the call.
Clutching his phone, Qi Chao exhaled deeply, his mind consumed with tomorrow's meeting with Chi Yu's mother. What should he wear?
So lost in thought was he that he didn't even notice the elevator doors opening.
"Are you coming in or not?" Qi Han's voice sounded from inside, his expression tinged with curiosity.
Snapping back to reality, Qi Chao masked his emotions with a polite smile and stepped into the elevator.
"Didn't expect to see you still at the office this late, Brother."
Qi Han turned to look at him, his expression warm and amicable, yet his eyes gleamed with a subtle hostility.
