Emotional Upheaval
Editor: Atlas Studios
Nico sounded surprised and his voice was extremely penetrating as it came through the phone speaker. Li Beinian could almost imagine the expression on his face.
Oddly, she felt a dull ache in her heart.
She had planned what she wanted to say, but at this point changed her mind and said instead, "Nico, where are you?"
"I'm next to the car, about to leave for Guang City." Nico spoke fluently, even with his London accent. "Beinian, what's… the matter?"
"Can you not leave yet? I have something to tell you."
Nico's eyes lit up. "Of course, that's too easily done. Where shall we meet?"
Nico's attitude made Li Beinian strangely nervous. She looked at Mu Xichen with pleading eyes and asked, "Where shall we meet?"
Sensing her emotions, Mu Xichen held her hand and took the phone from her. He spoke into the receiver, "Where are you? Let me come by and pick you up first."
