A mechanical female voice came through from the other end of the mobile phone, âSorry, the number you dialed is not in the service area. Please try again later.â
ââ¦â Not in the service area?
âSorry, the number you dialed is not in the service area. Please try again later.â
Chi Enen hung up the phone, pondered for a moment, then dialed Li Beijueâs phone again.
âDoo dooâ¦â With a click, it was still the same situation, âSorry, the number you dialed is not in the service area, pleaseâ¦â
Chi Enen put down the mobile phone, her heart suddenly felt as if it were pressed by a stone, an indescribable feeling.
The call obviously went through, so why does it show not in the service area again?
Is it because Li Beijue is angry and refuses to answer her call, or is it really poor signal that prevents him from receiving her call?
Chi Enen couldnât figure out the situation either. Throughout the entire intravenous infusion process, she kept trying to call Li Beijue, but three hours passed, and each time the same reaction from the other side â the phone isnât in the service area!
Could it be that Li Beijue is really so angry that he refuses to answer her phone?
Chi Enen became anxious and uneasy.
Previously, no matter how angry Li Beijue was, he never got so mad that he didnât answer her calls. It seems this time heâs really furious, even refusing to pick up the phone.
Butâ¦
Her eyebrows furrowed, and she couldnât help but recall Huo Yiâs words to her in the car: âI heard a gunshot on Master Jueâs side.â
Could it be that Li Beijue encountered some danger?
As soon as this thought emerged, Chi Enen quickly dismissed it as unlikely.
This time, Li Beijue went to Country S to handle a business dispute at Old Master Liâs request. No matter how dangerous, it should not be so risky that he wouldnât take calls.
Unless he really does not want to answer her calls.
The feeling of a stone pressing on her heart suddenly grew larger. Chi Enen tried calling two more times.
â¦
By the time she finished the infusion and returned to the villa, it was already past 2 AM.
Thereâs a time difference of more than an hour between Country S and Country W, and it was already early morning here too.
After returning to the villa, Chi Enen tried calling Li Beijue several more times. When she couldnât get through, she completely gave up, sent a text message to apologize, and lay exhausted on the bed.
She originally thought that without a returned call from Li Beijue, she wouldnât be able to sleep. But in reality, she underestimated her own bodyâs exhaustion.
One day of thrilling mind games had left her mentally exhausted to the extreme. She even forgot to video chat with Baby Chi. As soon as her head hit the pillow, she involuntarily fell asleep.
â¦
A good nightâs dream.
The next day, nearing noon, Chi Enen finally opened her eyes on the bed. The first thing she did upon waking up was to pick up her mobile phone.
Her phone indeed had missed calls, but not from Li Beijue. Instead, it was Baby Chi and Qin Nan who called and Lin Anxin who sent text messages.
But no message or call from Li Beijue!
Chi Enen felt an indescribable disappointment in her heart and tried dialing Li Beijueâs phone number again.
âDooâ¦â
After seven or eight rings, it was the same situation again, âSorry, the number you dialed is not in the service area. Please try again later.â
Again, not in the service areaâ¦
Chi Enen rubbed her temple, feeling extremely frustrated.
Just how angry does he have to be to not answer her calls all the time?
Didnât he see the explanatory text message she sent him yesterday? If he had seen it, with Li Beijueâs personality, even if he were still angry, he would at least reply with a message, right? But today, he still hasnât replied to anything.
Could he really be so busy that he hasnât seen the message she sent?
