Pei Ge had an especially good night's sleep, and when she woke up, it was almost noon.
If her phone did not ring, she probably would still be sleeping.
"Hello…"
She groggily picked up the phone next to her pillow without looking at the caller ID.
"Hi…"
Her groggy voice seemed to have made the person on the other end pause.
"Still sleeping?"
Hearing Ji Ziming's voice over the phone jolted her awake.
"Ziming?"
Her half-closed lids flew up at once.
"Did I wake you up?" he asked.
Her lips inexplicably upturned at his question.
"Not really; I was about to wake up."
"Tired?"
"I'm not! I just felt comfortable since I'm back home, so I slept much longer than usual."
The two chatted over the phone for a while, giving off a heartwarming feeling.
He clearly was no talker. He was an inherently taciturn man, but when on the phone with her now, he was the opposite.
