By the way, Laurie said I should apologize to him.
She immediately picked up the phone and dialed.
Ring, ring, ring!
Ah Lan was worried he wouldn't answer her call. But when the call connected, she was overjoyed.
"Brother Lijin."
"Hmm, what's up?"
Xiao Lijin was slightly delayed today. Although he left work after five, he was only heading home now.
"Why didn't you come today? Is it because I upset you yesterday?"
"No."
Xiao Lijin wouldn't get upset over such a small thing, after all, Ah Lan's future depends on her own efforts, not something he provides.
But to Ah Lan, his tone still indicated that he was upset.
"Brother Lijin, could you come over? I made some dishes you love."
"Maybe tomorrow. I have things to do today."
Ah Lan hadn't expected his refusal. Before, no matter what, he would always rush over. For a moment, she couldn't accept it and said again:
"But..."
Before she could finish, Xiao Lijin hung up the phone.
