After a pause, and when Qiu Zhixuan's crying subsided, she sniffled, took out her phone from her bag, and called Bai Qifan.
"Hello, where are you? Could you come pick me up?"
In the cold, silent night, Feng Chengjin heard her words and stopped in his tracks.
After hesitating for a moment, he slowly stepped back into an empty alley.
After waiting for almost 40 minutes, seeing a black Audi car drive up, Bai Qifan got out of the car, looking at the somewhat intoxicated Qiu Zhixuan who was barely keeping it together by squatting. Bai Qifan quickly took off his coat and without a word, draped it over Qiu Zhixuan's shoulders, then helped her into the car as she could barely keep her balance.
The car soon drove away.
In the shadows, Feng Chengjin watched everything unfold from a distance, and let out a self-mocking, sarcastic laugh.
