Old Meng stood in the night wind and smoked a cigarette, after much deliberation, he still called Lu Lingxiao.
Lu Lingxiao returned a few hours later than expected, and received Old Meng's call as soon as he got off the plane.
Seeing the sky gradually darken outside, he got up and went straight to Ye Xi's residence.
...
Dai Ning took the water Ye Xi handed her and drank half a cup before she seemed to regain half her life.
She set down the cup and began to carefully size up Ye Xi, who was standing to the side.
Ye Xi knew she was Lu Lingxiao's mother and stood beside her extremely nervous and restrained.
Dai Ning of course remembered her, as Ye Xi had once been her clay modeling class teacher, although for a short time, but not short enough to forget her.
"Is it you?" Dai Ning was the first to speak.
Ye Xi didn't know how to respond for a moment and just stood there looking at her, as if Dai Ning were the master of the house and she the guest.
