That day, Lin Xiaoguai was called out by Zhu Huixi to go shopping; to her surprise, Yang Xiaoli also came.
"Xiao Li..." Lin Xiaoguai subconsciously wanted to ask how she had been recently but stopped herself realizing the topic was sensitive.
Yang Xiaoli looked over, puzzled, and then smiled, "Surprised to see me?"
Lin Xiaoguai smiled awkwardly, "Not really, it's just that Huihui didn't mention you were coming on the phone, and I thought you were busy."
"Busy" was a euphemism; Lin Xiaoguai felt that Yang Xiaoli probably wasn't in the mood for shopping.
Yang Xiaoli's expression was indifferent. She looked at her two friends for a long time before saying softly, "I'm going back to my hometown."
At this, neither Zhu Huixi nor Lin Xiaoguai felt like shopping anymore. They took her to a teahouse, chose a private room, ordered a pot of tea, and sent the waiter away.
