Originally, she didn't want to answer the phone, as she was tired from playing poker late into the night. But her mobile phone kept ringing, and since the house in the rural area had no soundproofing, she was afraid she would wake up her uncles and aunts on the same floor and her cousins next door.
She quickly answered the phone and before Joseph could speak, she said, "It's late at night, if you don't sleep, don't disturb others' sleep either, okay?"
Joseph on the other end of the phone was not angry, and his tone was actually exceptionally gentle, with a hint of warmth, "Have you fallen asleep yet?"
It was late at night and she was planning to sleep, but she was now disturbed by his call, even if she was sleepy, it would be difficult to fall asleep for a while.
"Not yet. Aren't you waking me now?" She replied with a clearly displeased tone.
He laughed on the phone, "Since you're not asleep, just come out."
