Only after leaving the precincts of Jin City University did Tang Xiaowan start replying to messages.
[Just finished class, was chatting with someone.]
[I wanted to tell you that we had four classes today and wouldn't be able to leave until 11:40. If you're bored, roam around the campus, and I'll be waiting for you at the usual place later.]
You startled me there; you should've said so earlier, seriously!
With a pout, Tang Xiaowan replied: [Got it, you go attend your classes, I have plenty of ways to kill time.]
Just when she thought that was it, another message popped up.
[Also, I'll need a ride to Li Garden after school, my brother said Bai Long might be too busy to pick me up today.]
[Sure, I'm also busy, do not disturb me.]
[Thanks a lot, see you at noon at twelve.]
And just like that, another crisis was safely navigated.
As she zipped her bag, Tang Xiaowan saw the new black phone and remembered she hadn't called Mr. Leng yet.
