Something Else Was Going On

As soon as Qing Chen left, Feng Xuan went to her home office and started working. She still had to fix the final preparations for Gretel's new opening but she was not yet even done with her first task when she received a call from her father.

"Are you free for lunch?"

"Yeah…" she answered cautiously. She knew her father was a busy person, especially now that he had started a few projects with Qing Zihao. "What's up?"

"Do you have a secretary that could pencil me in?" his father joked with a light laugh. "Can't I just have lunch with my daughter?"

Her mind was already running. It could not just be a coincidence that Qing Chen was out for lunch and then her own father called her.

She didn't want to ask questions over the phone. So she answered, "Okay. Please send me the details. I'll head over now."

Within after a moment the call was over, Feng Xuan received the restaurant name and she got up to get dressed.
