There was about ten seconds of silence on the phone. Huo Beijiang's expression was actually much more stern than his voice. This rescue mission was more complex than he had imagined. Besides the rescue, the situations within, and the spies planted by various countries were the crux of the matter.
He was afraid that the real trouble would come only after he returned.
"Babe!" he called softly. His deep voice, those simple two words, landing on Nan Fei's heart like a giant rock, causing her heart to tremble uncontrollably.
Her heart tightened and only then did the slow-witted her realize she had unconsciously been holding her breath.
Her chest hurt slightly now.
She began to breathe heavily, the sound of her panting transmitted to the other end of the phone.
Huo Beijiang was quick to notice. "Nan Fei, what's wrong?" he asked anxiously, "Is somebody bullying you? Tell me, who is it?"
"I..." she quickly began, "Nobody's bullying me, I'm pretty tough."
