The other side.
Airport.
The flight Shirao booked suddenly announced a delay.
She sat waiting, feeling complicated.
Ji Chiming noticed her absent-mindedness, went to buy water, opened the bottle in front of her, and handed it to her.
Shirao took the water Ji Chiming handed over, just about to say thank you, when she saw someone walking quickly towards them…
He snatched the bottled water from Ji Chiming and Shirao and threw it into the trash can nearby.
Then he handed her a drink.
She didn't take it.
He forced it into her hand.
Shirao finally confirmed that the person was Zhan Nanjue, her pupils suddenly dilating, and the bottle in her hand fell to the ground with a thud.
The drink gurgled out of the water bottle, but she seemed completely unaware.
Ji Chiming heard the sound, looked at Shirao in surprise, saw her staring ahead in shock, and followed her gaze…
Zhan Nanjue?
Wasn't he at Shirao's house? Earlier, he had fainted with a fever from getting caught in the rain…
