Chapter 89_1

Night had deepened, and the dew had fallen, causing the temperature to drop quite a few degrees. The Porsche came to a slow stop in the garage. Qianning fumbled to open the car door and stepped out. Meanwhile, Beigong Cang took off his suit jacket and, holding Lele in his arms, carried her out of the car, which was still warm.

"Qianning, take your time. I'm holding Lele and can't carry you too," Beigong Cang said, slowing his pace so Qianning could follow the sound of his voice back into the house.

Hearing the car, Aunt Mei had already turned on the front porch lights and came out to greet them. "You're back? Why so late?" she asked, reaching out to take Lele into her arms.

Only then did Beigong Cang turn to look at Qianning, who was following behind him.

"Lele had fun and didn't want to come back," Qianning replied.

"Have you eaten? I've kept the meal for you," said Aunt Mei.
