Zong Shimeng and Hu Zhifeng left the banquet separately; one was worried about their child at home, while the other returned to the office to continue working.
Yu Meitong didn't have a car, so Zong Shimeng drove her home.
Once the car left the parking garage and got onto the main road, Zong Shimeng finally asked, "Meitong, is it really because Jiang Yuanjiu has a bad cold and can't come, rather than other reasons?"
It seemed too coincidental. People like them are instinctively skeptical about coincidental matters.
Yu Meitong smiled bitterly and said, "I can't hide it from you, Sister Shimeng, it's not really because of the cold."
Zong Shimeng furrowed her brow, "What happened? It's such an important occasion; what could possibly be more important to keep him from coming?"
