Chapter 632: Chapter 632: Unable to Reach Chi Enenâs Phone
Morning sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, warming the side of the manâs face as he slept soundly on the king-size bed.
It only served to highlight the manâs facial features, making them appear even more heroically handsome.
The Presidential Suite was filled with a warm and peaceful tranquility.
Suddenly, the eyelids of the person sleeping on the bed fluttered, and his long eyelashes, like small fans, trembled. His eyes slowly openedâ¦
His black eyes were as beautiful as precious black obsidian. Having just awakened, they lacked his usual forcefulness, and a few remnants of confusion lingered in his aristocratic, slightly upturned eyes.
His consciousness hadnât fully returned, but his arm naturally reached out beside him, feeling for the edge of the bed.
Only when he found nothing did he suddenly become fully alert.
All traces of confusion vanished from his eyes.
His eyebrows furrowed as well.
Where was Chi Enen?
So early, had she gone downstairs to order breakfast again?
He sat up instinctively, accidentally pulling at the wound on his back. Looking down, he saw it was bandaged clumsily but with sincere effort in white gauze.
Memories of last night gradually returnedâ¦
Last night, Chi Enen had treated his wound and even read him a storyâ¦
He remembered his back was in pain, but as he listened to her soothing voice, he still fell into a deep sleep. Li Beijueâs falcon-like eyes softened, and he shifted his gaze from the white gauze wound around his body. His mood lifted, and he curled the corner of his mouth as he rose to get a fresh sleeping gown from the wardrobe.
Then he pulled open the door to check.
As expected, Chi Enen wasnât in the room.
Since the day before yesterday, Chi Enen had also gotten up early to go downstairs and order breakfast to have it sent up. So, he didnât think much of it, poured himself a cup of water, and sat down on the sofa. Just as he crossed his legs to pick up the newspaper, suddenly, his attention was caught by the mobile phone lying on the table.
Why didnât he remember putting his phone there last night?
Li Beijueâs eyebrows tightened, his falcon-like eyes narrowed slightly, and he put down the newspaper. He picked the phone up from the table.
When he pressed the unlock code and saw the missed calls on the screen, his brows furrowed even more.
At 9:56 pm last night, Chi Enen had called him?
Wasnât she at home?
Right beside him, why would she call him?
Li Beijueâs heart involuntarily tensed, and for some reason, a strong sense of unease suddenly washed over him!
His complexion grew more and more cold, and with a stern face, he dialed the number backâ
The other end was busy for a long time.
Finally, a voice came through, âIâm sorry, the user you are calling has switched off their phone. We will inform the user via text message laterâ¦â
Wasnât that woman buying breakfast at the restaurant? Why was her phone switched off? Out of battery?
The unease in his heart intensified, and Li Beijue suddenly stood up, dialing the number againâ
âIâm sorry, the user you are calling has switched off their phone. We will inform the user via text message laterâ¦â
It was the same female voice.
âDamn it!â
He called again.
âIâm sorry, the user you are calling has switched off their phone. We will inform the user via text messageâ¦â
This time, without waiting for the mechanical female voice on the other end to finish speaking, he hung up with an ashen face.
The unease pressing on his nerves caused them to throb incessantly, and that premonition of anxiety grew even stronger.
Li Beijue picked up a room card that was casually placed on the table and headed outâ¦
No, he couldnât rest easy not being able to reach that woman by phone. He had to go down to the restaurant downstairs to see if Chi Enen was there!
