Outside the door, Leng Zimo stood with one hand in his pocket and the other holding his laptop bag, his face the picture of leisure.
Did he really have to be so lazy? He knew the password yet still wanted her to open the door?!
With a silent complaint, Luo Xiaoqian gently opened the door.
"You're back just in time, I've prepared all the cold dishes, we just need to boil water for the dumplings!" she said, intending to help him get his slippers.
Leng Zimo caught her arm, "I was in a meeting when I answered the call."
"I'm sorry, I... I didn't know!" Luo Xiaoqian hurried to apologize.
"I'm not blaming you!" Leng Zimo looked at the fearful expression in her eyes, "What I mean is, it wasn't convenient for me to talk then."
Ah!
Luo Xiaoqian startled.
So, he meant to explain that his curt response was because it wasn't convenient for him to speak?!
"That's okay!" she smiled, "From now on, I won't just call you out of the blue..."
"You can call me anytime!" Leng Zimo cut her off.
