Ye Lanchen's eyes shone with brilliance. Evidently, he did not expect Chu Wuyou to listen to him and return the call obediently.
His expression softened visibly at her submissiveness.
The person on the other end of the phone, however, neither answered nor hung up the call.
This caught Chu Wuyou by surprise. Perhaps the other person did not hear the call?
Chu Wuyou knew that under normal circumstances, Zhixi should be waiting by the phone for her mother's call, which meant the possibility of her previous speculation was low.
There was only one other likelihood - the phone had been switched off. There was no way Zhixi would do that hence it was highly probable that Zhimo was the person behind this.
"Elder Brother, why did you turn off the phone? I'm about to video call mommy once more." On the other hand, dissatisfaction was written all over Zhixi's face. Mommy had hung up on her and now her brother switched off the phone.
