"My teammates got injured and need my help," Nan Yan calmly lied.
She had experience in deceiving Qin Lu. She couldn't just tell him she was going to deal with some thugs; otherwise, he'd scold her over the phone.
Qin Lu didn't doubt her words. He advised, "Just don't work too late. Finish up and get some rest, alright?"
"Okay," Nan Yan obediently replied.
Before Qin Lu hung up, he thought of Old Madam Qin who had come to throw a tantrum at him today. With a change in tone, he suggested, "Little one, Grandma really misses you. After the competition, can you come to the capital?"
Nan Yan didn't hesitate and agreed, "Sure, I'll head to the capital right after the competition tomorrow."
"Then I'll send someone to pick you up."
"Alright."
A faint smile appeared on Qin Lu's lips as he said, "Well, big brother wishes you goodnight in advance."
"Goodnight, big brother."
