After the formalities were done and without taking the formula money from the grandmother, Valentine Teller and Turstin Muller left first.
She adjusted her glasses, burying the feeling of loss from separating with Nian Nian deep in her heart. It was time to go back to work, and beside her, Turstin, too, needed to return to preparing his research project application.
These few days Turstin had been taking care of Nian Nian, which delayed his work quite a bit. Now everything should return to normal.
"Are you heading back to the office? Let me give you a ride!"
Once home, it would just be him alone again. Turstin suddenly didn't feel like going back, wanting to spend more time with her, even just to chat.
"No need, I'll catch a cab back, it's quick."
Valentine couldn't grasp Turstin's thoughts at this moment, nor did she want to take up his time, so she waved her hand, declining repeatedly.
Even though she refused him, she felt a bit happy inside.
