It was terrifying.
Just then, she realized this was precisely what she had wanted.
She said to the other end of the phone, "Dad, there's a call coming in, I'll take it first."
Mid-sentence, Lu Yun decisively hung up the phone and got out of the car, suddenly feeling more clear-headed.
She opened the car door and walked towards the villa.
Pei Heyan was sitting in front of the couch and glanced her way without seeming to mean to.
Seeing Wen Tang's complexion looked grim, he lifted his eyes and fixed his gaze on her, closing the newspaper in his hand and asking, "Why the long face?"
Wen Tang took off her shoes, subconsciously touched her cheek, and said, "Really?"
She hadn't noticed.
Seeing the food laid out on the dining table, she washed her hands and handed a warm towel to Pei Heyan.
He took it, but his eyes had yet to shift away from her.
He wiped his hands and sat down at the head of the table.
He spoke clearly, "They're trying to lure you back, aren't they?"
