"Xiu'er, are you alright? Do you know how many times I had called you yesterday? If it was not because of your text, I would have thought something happened to you both," Song Tianyu reprimanded the girl in a stern tone.
Si Xiu put the phone on speaker and kept it on the side before burying her face in her hands. She was already feeling guilty in advance for lying to him.
She cleared her throat, "Uncle, you should know how strict your daughter is when it comes to working. We came here for a business trip, how could I have the leisure to check my phone with cousin hovering around me."
As much as she did not want to lie to him, she also did not want to betray Tang Li.
"Well, when will you both come back?" the man asked.
"Hello…Hello…Uncle….What are you saying..? The network connection here is not good. I'll call you later…" She hung up the call before throwing her phone on the bed.
