Chen Ming seemed calm and all the worry on his face had disappeared. He turned his head sideways and looked out of the car window as he replied mildly. "Don't bother."
His subordinate acknowledged softly before he continued. "Then, are we going back now?"
"Uh huh." Chen Ming leaned into the seat. Just as he was about to rest his eyes, his phone rang in his pocket.
It was Huo Yulin calling him.
Chen Ming retrieved his phone and quickly answered it. This time, he told Huo Yulin the truth about everything. Also, he informed Huo Yulin that Huo Yao was alive and well and would probably reach home soon.

Meanwhile, in the car.
Huo Yao sat up straight in the car with her hands on her knees like a good student. She twisted her fingers every now and then.
She looked particularly sweet and obedient.
Min Yu focused on driving the car without talking to her, so the atmosphere in the car was particularly quiet.
