Their gazes met in mid-air, and it seemed as if the flowing air around them paused for a moment.
Nian Yuyu's fair face was filled with laughter, her eyes curving into a smile, "Come in quickly."
Having said that, she took a step back into the living room, clearing the way.
Chu You eyed her smiling face, feeling his unsettled heart find its footing once again.
The meeting with Chen Ruomei at noon had affected his mood, stirring up some unpleasant memories from the past.
Driving home, he suddenly really wanted to see her.
So, he came.
Upon entering the living room, Chu You glanced at the dining table and began with an apology, "Sorry for missing our noon appointment."
But Nian Yuyu didn't mind, the subtle disappointment in her heart had vanished the moment she saw him.
And... she sneakily glanced at Chu You.
The way she saw him through the peephole just now, he seemed somewhat downcast, as if he had been wronged.
