The screen contained a brief six-word message. After reading it, Tianxin's heart was pounding like a drum. She abruptly raised her head to glance at Chen Yiran, sitting across from her. He was smiling, turning to say something to his mother, then stood up and left.
The atmosphere of the private room was the same as before, no one thought much of Chen Yiran's abrupt departure, but Tianxin's heart was thumping non-stop. She lowered her head again to look at the message on her phone, pondered, made up her mind, then turned to her mother and said: "Mom, I'm going to the restroom."
"Oh, the restroom is over there." Tianxin's mother pointed to a spot beside their private room. The room they were in had a private bathroom.
"Uh... I also want to check outside if there's anything else to drink..." Tianxin quickly changed her reason, then hurriedly left before her mother could react.
