*Mom is calling.*
I froze when I saw the caller on Meng Bao's phone. I looked at Meng Bao, and all his playfulness, childishness, and meek gaze disappeared. Which also surprised me. Because I've always seen Meng Bao as a cute, meek, and harmless guy.
But this time, his gaze darkened, and that sweet smile also disappeared from his face. He looked so serious all of a sudden. His gaze was so intimidating that I automatically retreated back on the couch to distance myself from Meng Bao.
He clicked his tongue, but when he looked at me, he resumed his meek gaze with that sweet smile again, "Jie, let me answer this call first, okay?"
"S—Sure…"
Meng Bao went outside to answer the call. I was staring at the door. He was probably talking behind the door. Although I should respect privacy, somehow, Meng Bao's sudden change still stunned me.
