After Mengyao tidied up her work files, she connected to Ye Fan's video call.
"It's so early in the morning, what made you think of sending me a video?" Mengyao said softly, but then she worriedly added: "Are you feeling unwell? Why does your face look so pale?"
Ye Fan didn't rush to speak, letting Mengyao talk first. Actually, he felt a bit embarrassed about sending a video to Mengyao to say he was poisoned, and sharing his experience with her felt a bit awkward. As Zhang Lu said, with his macho mindset, opening up to Mengyao felt somewhat guilty, like a thief with a conscience.
Listening to Mengyao's worried tone, and noticing how she quickly observed his unusual complexion, he didn't hesitate about how to open up, and followed through by saying: "It's nothing serious, I accidentally drank a cup of poisoned water, but I'm fine now."
In order not to keep Mengyao on edge, he emphatically assured her that he was okay now.
