"Something's suddenly come up on my end. Could you wait for me a little longer? I'll come pick you up as soon as I've dealt with it."
"How long will that be?"
"One... to two hours, or so."
"Forget it. Just send me the address."
"..."
Lu Yuan hung up the phone, his expression unchanging.
Before the trip, Lin Zhiquin had given him a number, telling him to contact it upon arrival, and someone would pick him up.
Lu Yuan had made the call while on the high-speed train.
However, after arriving and waiting for fifteen minutes, he received news that the person couldn't make it because something had come up.
Over the phone, the person's apology sounded sincere, as if they were genuinely held up.
"Hey handsome, where are you headed? Need a horse carriage?"
A slender girl wearing a traditional conical hat and dressed in an ancient style had been watching Lu Yuan for some time. Finally, she couldn't resist running over to ask him.
