The suit looked like it was from a bygone era, the kind of wedding suits that were once very popular in Western countries. Ji Anning looked puzzled in the direction from where Charles had come.
Had he...come around from the backyard?
As she pondered, Charles had already reached the downstairs.
Suddenly, he stopped walking and looked up. Ji Anning's eyes met his, and she felt the hair on her skin stand up. Her instinct was to close the curtains.
Then she turned and entered the room.
After quickly washing up in the bathroom and changing her clothes, she returned to the window and drew back the curtains. The room became light and bright, and in her other hand, she held her phone, dialing Xiang Yiqing's number.
The phone barely rang before Xiang Yiqing answered. Hearing his voice, Ji Anning asked, "Doctor Xiang, are you still in Country Y?"
Xiang Yiqing said, "Yes, what's up?"
