Actually, with Ruan Qi's sharp hearing, she had already noticed someone outside the door.
But she only thought it was Abed's bodyguards and hadn't expected it to be such a handsome, aristocratic-looking older man.
The young girl froze for a moment and looked at Abed, questioning.
"Uh…" Abed scratched his head awkwardly. "Ruan Ruan, this is my father."
As he spoke, he turned to the middle-aged man and stomped his foot furiously, growling in frustration, "Father, didn't we agree that if I didn't speak up, you wouldn't come in?!"
"If I waited for you to speak up, I might not see your savior until next year."
The middle-aged man cast a disdainful glance at his son, then gracefully walked to the foot of the bed and gave Ruan Qi an aristocratic bow full of elegance and nobility.
"Beautiful lady, I am Abed's father, Solo Alpharetta. It's an honor to meet you."
The previously stunned Ruan Qi's expression instantly changed when she heard that name.
