But, how long can he keep it a secret?
*************
It wasn't until past 8 p.m. that Ruan Tianling dared to go back.
Jian Yufei had been waiting for him all along.
Seeing him walk into the living room, she stepped forward with a smile and asked, "How's it going? When is that person going to help rescue my mom?"
Ruan Tianling pulled out a smile, "Things are still being negotiated."
"Well, bringing someone out of the castle is quite difficult. But now there's hope, which is better than having no hope at all."
Jian Yufei's eyes were filled with anticipation, and Ruan Tianling didn't dare meet her gaze.
"So when exactly will they take action?" Jian Yufei asked again.
"Have you eaten?" Ruan Tianling changed the subject.
"I have. You haven't eaten yet?"
"Yeah, I've been hungry all afternoon, almost faint from hunger now."
Jian Yufei glared at him, "Why don't you eat on time?!"
"I've been discussing the matters, and I forgot."
