Chi Yue behaved as if no one else were around as she went to the restaurant, had a quick breakfast, and then left, claiming she was off to work. In reality, she headed to No.1 Bay.
She needed to catch up on sleep and couldn't let Chi Jianshan find out she had been up all night, or he would start worrying again.
As luck would have it, she ran into Chu Shuo at the entrance of the apartment building.
Chu Shuo appeared to be in good spirits. "Here to see me?"
Chi Yue thought about what Nan Bingyu had told her last time and said, "No, I came to get some things. Are you heading out to work now, or...?"
"To work. Why?"
Chi Yue shook her head, then remembered her recent encounter with Leng Siling, and said, "Miss Leng has been discharged, have you and Miss Leng..."
A smile still lingered on Chu Shuo's face, but Chi Yue clearly noticed his smile fade a little.
"I've apologized to her."
