Xu Jiamu stopped and reached for his phone. It was an unknown number. After hesitating slightly, he answered the call.

Song Xiangsi wasn't far from Xu Jiamu when his phone rang. Instinctively, she turned.The instance he picked up the call, his face fell, and the next instance he dashed out of the hotel.
Something must have happened. Song Xiangsi hesitated for a heartbeat before finally following right after him.
When his car started, she pulled open the passenger seat and planted herself down. Xu Jiamu took a quick glance, and without chasing her out he slammed into the accelerator, turning the steering wheel.
The car was silent the entire journey. Xu Jiamu drove over the speed limit, and Song Xiangsi could distinctively feel his hands trembling as he held onto the steering wheel.
The car stopped at the entrance of People's Hospital. Xu Jiamu didn't head to the emergency building but instead continued on to the remote mortuary.
