My Love, Enlighten me

The second day, Gloria Taylor left for Jin Ding early.

By the time she got there, it was twenty minutes earlier than the agreed time, but Si Chengyu got there as well in about one minute later.

“Kenny’s not here yet?” He asked Gloria.

“Yeah. I seldom saw him since he was back in the family business.” Gloria sighed and answered.

Noticing disappointment in her words, Si changed the subject.

“Well, Leon was meant to come, too, but his friends called him, so he didn’t make it.”

Gloria did not meet Leon for quite a long time, and it drew her attention when Si mentioned him.

They chatted and waited for Kenny Clarke, but he did not show up even over the agreed time, which was unusual for a punctual person like him.

She dialed his number, but he hung up. Looking at the phone, Gloria frowned.

“What’s up?” Si asked.

“It’s Kenny...” Gloria compressed her lips but smiled to hide her worry. “Maybe he was in an emergency meeting. Don’t mind him, Let’s begin to order.”

Si Chengyu came here with an empty stomach as she did, and it would be inappropriate to keep him waiting.

“No, no. I’m alright.” Si said.
