The phone had been ringing for a long time before An Nuonuo answered.
"What are you doing? Why haven't you replied for so long?" Jiang Xu asked.
"Ah, I was just busy; sorry about that."
A hint of uneasiness couldn't help but rise in Jiang Xu's heart.
In An Nuonuo's voice, there was a trace of emotional distance.
Although it wasn't obvious, Jiang Xu could always sense when something was off with An Nuonuo, given the long time they had been together.
He asked in a deep voice, "What happened? You sound upset."
"No, my phone's about to die; it could turn off any minute..."
"Beep beep beep..."
The call ended.
When Jiang Xu tried again, he was met with the message that the other party had switched off their phone.
He stood up and began to pace back and forth in the reception room.
His mind was involuntarily filled with the events of the previous day.
At that time, An Nuonuo seemed a bit off.
