Gu Nanqiao originally wanted to call him back, but considering it was his work time, she decided against it.
Not long after, Huo Jingting returned to Jinling Garden.
Gu Nanqiao was peeling an apple. Hearing the door open, she looked up, "Don't you have a lot of things to do this afternoon?"
She didn't call him back just now because she was afraid of disturbing him.
Moreover, Xiao Zhan didn't seem to have any intention of harming her, just said a couple of strange things.
Huo Jingting eased the heaviness between his brows and spoke gently, "The meeting is over. The rest can be handled later."
Gu Nanqiao finished peeling the apple and cut it into small pieces, "Xiao Zhan came by."
"Hmm." Huo Jingting responded blandly, with no significant expression on his face, "He wanted me to do him a favor, but I didn't agree."
"Aren't you supposed to be mortal enemies? Why would he still ask you for help?"
Gu Nanqiao had always found this puzzling.
