As they neared the city gates, Wang Hao suddenly reined in his horse and glanced at the phone on the table. "Why didn't you answer the phone?" he asked.
Xin Xiaowan blinked like a child and said, "I didn't want to!"
Wang Hao smiled slightly and said, "Answer it. There will be plenty of chances for your 'make-up test' in the future."
Xin Xiaowan rolled her eyes coquettishly and complained, "Humph, annoying, always bullying me!"
While talking, she reached out with her fair, lotus-root-like arms and grabbed the cellphone from the coffee table.
After glancing at the caller ID, Xin Xiaowan's pretty face changed slightly and she quickly gestured to Wang Hao to keep quiet.
"Shh, it's my mom!"
Wang Hao nodded in agreement.
No sooner had Xin Xiaowan pressed the answer button than her mother's slightly reproachful voice came through.
"Xiao Wan, what are you doing? Why did it take you so long to answer Mom's call?"
