Mi Shen stood in place for a while when her phone suddenly rang in her pocket.
She glanced at the caller ID, it was Li Fengchang.
Jiang Min's gaze made her uncomfortable, and, gripping her phone tightly, she said, "I'm going to take the call."
With that, she walked out of the room.
Once out of Jiang Min's line of sight, Mi Shen heaved a sigh of relief, descended the stairs, and answered Li Fengchang's call.
"Fengchang."
"Have you eaten?" The man's voice was gentle, making Mi Shen feel as if she had jumped from a land of ice and snow into blooming spring all at once.
Very warm, and very comfortable.
Slightly calmer, she responded, "Not yet, I was about to. What about you?"
"I was just about to eat too," the man paused and then asked, "Are you alright?"
Actually, she wasn't.
