At that moment, Gu Qibao was having her blood drawn when her phone rang, and Nangong Ran picked it up for her.
As soon as Nangong Ran saw who it was, he got excited, "Damn, it's a call from your Duke!"
Gu Qibao's heartbeat sped up instantly, thumping rapidly, as if it was about to leap out of her chest.
She felt a mix of nervousness, excitement, and sweetness—an absolute jumble of emotions.
It was her Duke!
Yet, with the nervousness came a twinge in her nose and the urge to cry.
Nangong Ran slid the phone to answer and held it to her ear.
"Hello," Gu Qibao spoke softly, her voice trembling uncontrollably.
Di Mingjue, on the other side, felt relieved to hear her answer the call.
"Baby..." he uttered softly with a tenderness he had never shown before.
"Mhm." Gu Qibao was actually kind of choked up, her throat aching.
Hearing her slightly choked voice, Di Mingjue became anxious immediately and asked hastily, "Where are you? Your husband is coming to find you."
