While Yuxi and Tang Jietang planned their travel, Mei Xing was on a call with Lu Aotian.

"How's your mother doing?" She asked whilst rubbing the fur of her Samoyed on the bed.

"She's doing okay. Although there hasn't been any sign of her regaining her memories. My father and I are keeping our fingers crossed for now," Lu Aotian replied.

"That's fine. Healing takes time. It's a gradual process."

"It is."

A comfortable beat of silence passed before Lu Aotian spoke again. "Mei Xing."

"Yeah?"

"I have tomorrow all to myself. No work or any of that sort. I was wondering," he paused.

"Wondering what? Tell me," Mei Xing gently probed in her usual soft voice.

"Ehem!" Lu Aotian cleared his throat. "I want you to come out with me. It'll be worth your while," he quickly added.
