Gu Yu hugged Tang Youran, holding her quietly for a while when suddenly the ringtone of his phone broke the silence.
Tang Youran was startled for a moment, then turned to glance at Gu Yu's phone screen. After seeing the flashing words "Mother-in-law" on the display, she abruptly looked up at Gu Yu.
Gu Yu quickly grabbed his phone and answered the call, then respectfully greeted, "Hello, Auntie."
"Xiaoyu, where's Youran??" A voice from the other end — Tang Youran's mother — came through, "Why isn't anyone answering her phone, and then it's turned off when I call again?? I called her last night, but she didn't pick up. I thought maybe she had already gone to sleep, so I didn't keep calling. But when I tried again this morning, her phone was off. I thought she might have forgotten to charge it, so I decided to wait a bit. But I still can't reach her until now."
Tang Youran's mother asked anxiously, "I had no choice but to call you, Xiaoyu. Is Youran with you??"
