Xia Ning halted. Looking ahead of her, she seemed to recall that he had asked her that same question before.
Did she miss him? She put a hand over her heart. Should she speak her mind or stick to her principles?
"Were you busy today?" asked Xia Ning all of a sudden.
"Not really. Mu Zichen came to see me today." Qiao Yu leaned back against the railing of the living room balcony and traced it with his fingers. His black eyes were flickering with an indescribable look.
"Was it because of Wen Yue?"
"Yes!" replied Qiao Yu. "He has offered to look after Wen Yue. You don't have to worry about them anymore."
"Qiao Yu, thank you!" Standing at a fork in the road, Xia Ning said as she watched the traffic lights on the other side of the road. She had thanked him already, but when Qiao Yu was put alongside Mu Zichen, she felt even more grateful for having him.
