Leaving the sanatorium, Ren Minghang sat in his car for a long time, only to start the engine when the car behind him honked several times.
"Inviting Xia You to have dinner at home, how am I supposed to bring this up," Ren Minghang and Xia You, in true meaning, had only connected once on the phone, plus a meal, and even that was an invitation sent out by Lin Yi. And this time, is Lin Yi supposed to step in again?
"No, I've got to speak up. If they understand that Xia You and I are just ordinary friends, that'll be clear enough. No, even if we're just ordinary friends, my parents would still say, 'Then invite her over for a meal as an ordinary friend.' " Scratching noises near the car door, Ren Minghang was as if unhearing.
