Surprise filled Noah's face when he saw this. He quickly took a step forward. "What's wrong?"
He stared intently at Mingye, trying to read his expression for an answer.
Mingye frantically covered his mouth as a low, hoarse sound escaped his throat. He struggled to calm his breathing, and after a long moment, he barely managed to force out two words: "I'm fine."
But his voice was impossibly hoarse and held an undisguisable tremor, which only made Noah more suspicious.
Mingye took a deep breath, forcing himself to stand up calmly. He straightened his slightly messy clothes, trying to cover up his earlier loss of composure.
He reached out to push open the door, and the moment it swung open, he collided squarely with Su Yaoyao, who was just about to step out.
Su Yaoyao was completely unprepared. Her body instantly lost its balance, and just as she was about to fall, Mingye subconsciously reached out and wrapped his arm tightly around her waist.
