Once inside, Ge Dongxu used the landline at Liu Jiayao's home to call her.
The phone was answered as soon as it rang, evidently Liu Jiayao had been waiting for the call.
"Is that you, Dongxu?" As soon as the call connected, Liu Jiayao's voice came through with a hint of surprise.
"Sister Liu, it's me. Haven't you taken off yet?" Ge Dongxu asked.
"Pfft, isn't that obvious? Could I answer your call if I had taken off?" Liu Jiayao laughed.
"Hehe, that's true. By the way, when will you be back?" Ge Dongxu looked at the time and asked.
"I can't say for sure right now, but I guess I definitely won't be home until the evening," Liu Jiayao replied.
"I see..." Ge Dongxu said, feeling somewhat troubled. His original plan was to return by train that evening since he had class on Monday, and taking the Sunday night train would be quite a rush.
