Lu Zhiquan saw this and realized that his guess was correct. Now, it wasn't just his throat that felt choked, but his heart as well.
So, was he still too late?!
"Xiao Xing, do you still remember six years ago..."
"Hello."
Nie Xiaoxing nodded at Lu Zhiquan and turned aside, "Aunt Yuan, do you need something?"
Lu Zhiquan's eyes were rimmed with threads of red, watching Nie Xiaoxing's back with restraint.
"Now?" Nie Xiaoxing pursed her lips, glanced back at Lu Zhiquan, and when she saw the redness in his eyes, there was a faint doubt in her own as she slowly withdrew her gaze.
"Alright. I'm close to the Vegetarian Restaurant, it should be about ten minutes." Nie Xiaoxing said.
After a few seconds, Nie Xiaoxing spoke again, "Okay."
Then, Nie Xiaoxing hung up the phone and turned back to Lu Zhiquan, "Sorry, I have something to do now. What were you about to say?"
Lu Zhiquan squeezed his knuckles, looking at Nie Xiaoxing and said, "It's nothing."
