The phone's ringtone kept ringing, ringing for a long time. It wasn't until a minute later, when the call was automatically disconnected, that no one had picked up.
Shen Yi felt even more panicked and increasingly irritated. He kept redialling the number as he got out of bed.
But still, the call wasn't answered.
Shen Yi had completely forgotten it was past one in the morning, and that Ye Wanwan had the habit of putting her phone on silent while asleep. It was normal that he couldn't get through.
Assistant Chen's room was just across from Shen Yi's. Wearing his pajamas, Shen Yi went directly into the hallway, one hand still dialing on his phone while the other knocked forcefully on the door.
Soon, Assistant Chen's voice came from inside the room, carrying a hint of anger, "Who is it?"
"Assistant Chen, it's me," Shen Yi said with a heavy voice.
