Xu Binchen saw her expression change abruptly and knew that his guess was right.
Shi Nian's fists above her thigh clenched as she recalled how she had used this same hand to slap her General's face. She didn't mean to do that. It's just…she wanted to stop him from talking in that kind of depressing manner, as if he was repulsed by the whole world, as if he was unloved, abandoned...
How presumptuous of her.
Shi Nian was so upset that she didn't dare to face him.
In a timely manner, Xu Binchen's phone atop of the dashboard rang. The man didn't even turn his head as he demanded. "Pick it up and put it on speaker."
Shi Nian nodded and the call was connected.
"Hello?" Xu Binchen said. "This is Xu Binchen speaking."
