A while after Lu Jinnian woke up, elderly Chen, Brother Chen, and his wife came back from the farm.
While they were having lunch, Lu Jinnian asked where he could borrow a phone, sadly, the only family with a phone in the village wasn't at home in the afternoon. But when brother Chen was on the way back from the farm, he had seen that the door to the house was open, hence he immediately brought Lu Jinnian over.
Brother Chen explained Lu Jinnian's situation to the family, so they allowed them into the house and led them towards their phone. The house’s owner signaled for Lu Jinnian to use it, and he walked over and entered his assistant's phone number.
The call went through instantly. The assistant's voice was drowned in anxiety. "Is there news from Mr. Lu and Miss Qiao?"
Lu Jinnian paused for a bit before replying simply, "It's me."
