Suxin's face instantly turned deathly pale, already half-past seven, she'd agreed with Yuanhang to call each other every night at nine, but she couldn't wait until nine, her heart was a mess like ants on a hot pot, she had to hear Yuanhang's voice now to calm down.
Picking up her phone, she pressed Ling Yuanhang's number, but the phone kept showing that it was out of service.
"Out of service? What's going on?" Suxin murmured nervously, "Couldn't he have been taken in for questioning? I heard those places have signal jammers..." The more Suxin thought about it, the more anxious she became.
"Could he really have been caught? What should I do?" She dialed the phone over and over again, but it was always out of service.
In the silence, Suxin anxiously awaited the arrival of nine o'clock, but tonight the phone was unusually quiet, remaining utterly silent from nine to nine-thirty, as if it were dead.
