In the private room on the second floor of the Jazz Bar, Gai Yu leaned back against the sofa, gently tapping the rim of the glass cup containing a cocktail, raising her left hand to glance at her watch.
It had been over forty minutes since the phone call, and it was at most a half-hour drive from Lanting Apartment to here. Was Mu Tianye really not planning to come after all this time?
Frowning in silence for a moment, just as Gai Yu hesitated about making another call, the room door was already being pushed open from the outside.
Turning her head to look at Mu Tianye walking into the room, Gai Yu's heart instantly accelerated.
Was it nervousness, excitement, or a combination of both? Even she couldn't quite discern.
Striving to suppress her excitement, she arrogantly tilted her chin up.
"Please, have a seat!"
Closing the door tightly behind him, Mu Tianye discreetly surveyed the surroundings, seating himself on the sofa opposite Gai Yu with a coffee table in between.
