Admiral Clan's arrangements were quicker than Lu Xiao had imagined. The very next day at noon, just as Lu Xiao was leaving the consultation room after finishing a treatment, she received a voice call from Admiral Clan. Only then did she realize he even had her number.
The call connected, and a mature, husky male voice came through. "Are you busy? I hope I'm not disturbing you. I've already booked a restaurant for this evening. Fred will go over early to wait for you."
She hadn't expected Admiral Clan to worry about disturbing her. If not for the latter half of his sentence, she might have actually considered him a very courteous man.
But as it was, he was both polite and completely overbearing.
"Father, I think I should make my position clear. I have no intention of adding another person to my family. I appreciate your kind intentions, but I'm afraid the outcome won't be what you hope for. I hope you can understand."
