Two minutes later, the two of them lay beside each other without uttering a single word.
An Xiaoning kept her eyes open while waiting for a call from the Yin family. She wanted to see if they would actually call her. On the other hand, Henry felt extremely awake all of a sudden, despite being rather sleepy at the start.
"Why aren't you saying anything? Aren't you usually very chatty?" he asked.
"I don't feel like talking."
"Are you upset because of this incident?"
"Would you be over the moon to hear that I'm upset?"
"…"
Noticing that he did not reply, she turned over to face him and said, "I suddenly feel like meeting my friends."
"Go ahead and look for your friends, then. I'll be happy to enjoy the peace by myself when you're gone."
"Another day, perhaps."
"Boss, that fellow is calling you again!" An Xiaoning's ringtone cranked loudly, greatly startling Henry.
