Lin Tian and Shi Lan were naturally unaware of the events happening behind the Yipin Pavilion.
After buying clothes, they realized it was almost six o'clock. The two of them took a cab away from Wangfujing Street and returned to University City.
At the three-way intersection in University City,
the two got out of the car.
"Lin Tian, the banquet starts at seven. Should I pick you up directly from the school later?"
Shi Lan lived just a little way into an old residential area from this intersection. The rent there was relatively cheap. Lin Tian got off the car here, which surprised her a bit, and she asked.
"Seven o'clock, huh? Then I'll just wait for you at the academy's entrance!"
Lin Tian nodded in agreement.
After Shi Lan left, he returned to the Siheyuan.
His aunt Lin Youran and Gao Xinhuan weren't around; they were probably busy.
Xia Xiaobei hadn't been back since leaving with Lin Qingwu.
