Having tried calling twice to no avail, Ye Xi was getting anxious.
Dusk was approaching, and although this was the place she knew well and where she had grown up, it was indeed somewhat gloomy.
After 20 minutes had passed, Ye Xi could no longer wait.
She dialed the person's number again, thinking if there was still no answer, she might as well give up.
As the dial tone echoed in the receiver one sound after another, Ye Xi finally gave up.
Just as she was putting away her phone and preparing to turn around, Zhao Peng unexpectedly appeared behind her.
Ye Xi jumped when she turned around and saw Zhao Peng.
After the initial shock, Ye Xi frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?"
The look in Zhao Peng's eyes was filled with greed as he said with a smile, "Ye family's little sister, who are you waiting for?"
Ye Xi didn't want to deal with him and started walking towards the village, bypassing him.
She had taken only a few steps when Zhao Peng caught up to her.
