"I…" Meng Bao paused for a while, then continued with his husky voice, "I just want to hear your voice, Ying Jie."
"… my voice?"
"Yes…" Meng Bao replied. "I want to hear your voice because my mind is muddled right now. I believe your voice can soothe me, Jie…"
'He wants to hear my voice? Why? He is off from his rental boyfriend job right now…' I pondered. Meng Bao seemed to realize that he hadn't gotten any answer from me. So he asked:
"Did I wake you up in the middle of the night, Jie? I will call you later—"
"No! I'm not sleepy at all!" I replied so he would not hang up the call. "But why do you want to hear my voice, don't you—"
'Have a girlfriend?' I only said this last sentence in my heart. I didn't dare to utter it to Meng Bao. Maybe it was my greediness because I didn't want Meng Bao to suddenly realize that he got a girlfriend and would hang up on me.
'Now this makes me feel like a mistress or some sort…' I thought.
