247 Arenst You at the Cloud Condominium? (1/2)

Song Yao would rather die than say certain things to Lin Nuan.

”Where are you going? ”Lin Nuan asked.

”I want to go abroad for an escape…” Song Yao wiped the tears from her eyes and pushed the car door open. She complained as she got out, ”It's too suffocating to stay here!”

As they entered the house, Song Yao went back inside her room to rest, and Lin Nuan cooked some porridge for her.

She leaned on the countertop and sent Fu Huai'an a text as she waited for the water to boil. She said she couldn't make it to the Cloud Condominium today and urged him to get some good rest. If he needed to use the car for urgent purposes, he could let his assistant fetch it for him since she couldn't leave her house.

As soon as she sent the text, Fu Huai'an called her.

”Why aren't you resting?” She couldn't hide the shock in her voice.

”Weren't you planning to go to the Cloud Condominium tonight?”

Fu Huai'an spoke in his deep voice on the other end but at a slower pace than usual. Lin Nuan could tell he was smiling and felt her ears grow hot.

She noticed Fu Huai'an phrased his sentence using ”going to” instead of ”coming to”.

Lin Nuan purposely diverted the subject and said, ”Aren't you at the Cloud Condominium?”

”No, I'm on the way to the airport. I still have some matters to take care of in Jincheng.”

Before she could express her concern for him, Fu Huai'an said, ”I'll call you when I reach Jincheng. I'll watch your live show with you tomorrow night at the Cloud Condominium—and say goodnight to you.”

Fu Huai'an's voice was deep and magnetic—it penetrated her eardrums and sounded as if he were speaking straight into them.

She recognized what he was trying to say. He still remembered what she said when she rejected him that night there.

She felt her face grow hot again.
