"Hello, this is Ruan Zeyan."
When Ruan Zeyan's voice came through the line, the other side of the phone was silent for a few awkward seconds, before someone's voice came through again. It was just that it was no longer Madam Ling, but Ling Tao.
"Ah, so it's Mr. Ruan. Is Yaya with you?" Ling Tao's voice was flustered, clearly it was because someone had just thrust the phone into his hands.
"Yes." Ruan Zeyan's answer was cold, clean, and compact.
On the other hand, Ling Tao felt like ants were crawling all over his heart. He didn't know how to face Ruan Zeyan, especially with his mom shouting directly into the phone, without even seeing who was on the line.
"I... I'm looking for Yaya, can you call her to the phone?"
There was silence.
Ruan Zeyan's silence unnerved Ling Tao more. Just as he was about to speak again, the other party spoke.
"Who was that person earlier?"
