Mike's Anger

"Old Qian, why did you suddenly decided to go to L City?" On the other line, Mike's friend, George Bei was speaking.

"Something happened with Edith. I came here to visit her."

Hearing that it was a matter about Mike's granddaughter, George Bei was anxious as well. He had watched the girl grow up in front of him and had considered her as his granddaughter as well.

"What's wrong with Edith? Is she's alright?"

Mike paused when he realized that his earlier words had made his friend panic. "Nothing to worry about." Mike coughed. "Old Bei, my Edith is getting married."

There was a brief silence on George's part. "Really? Old Qian. Congratulations. It seemed that I will have to prepare a big red packet."

Mike laughed happily. He scanned his surroundings and lowered his guard as he found that there was no one around. 

Before he came to the corner to answer that phone call, Mike had already checked at his surroundings.
