But by some quirk of fate, he turned to the driver and said, "There's some traffic up ahead, you might consider taking a detour."
And indeed, that proved to be true.
The latter nodded.
The next second, Xu Zhou pretended to be calm and reached out to switch the navigation to the longest route.
The driver glanced at him in surprise, fell silent for two seconds, but didn't ask any further. He skillfully drove into a side road, heading in another direction.
In this way, two 'inside-job' subordinates successfully gained an additional five minutes for Director Liang.
It wasn't really an alienation.
After all, a man still had to get married and take someone home.
A family shouldn't speak in two tongues.
Xu Zhou comforted himself.
Meanwhile, Liang Weining toasted everyone for the last time and went downstairs with her bag.
Standing alone by the roadside, she stared intently across the street, her head spinning, tears welling up.
She was very reluctant to leave.
