Time passed as Gu Nianzhi had called for a whole two hours, but couldn't connect to the other line. When it was time for lunch, Zhao Liangze had prepared all the food and called Gu Nianzhi out to eat. She bit on the chopsticks as she looked at the dishes--pan fried fish, garlic shrimp with vermicelli, spinach salad and corn and ribs soup. These were all her favourites, but she had no appetite.
"Brother Ze, did you call Uncle Huo just now?" Gu Nianzhi looked down as she moodily picked up some spinach for her bowl.
Zhao Liangze grunted, "Of course, I had to make a report to him."
"Oh." Gu Nianzhi lost all appetite.
Huo Shaoheng was obviously able to pick up the phone, yet he ignored her calls. He even said few people knew about the phone number, and that he would pick up if she called. Liars, liars, all liars…
