After chatting with An Tingxue, Lu Xiaoxiao had been waiting for Ji Yunhuai to contact her.
She really wasn't angry anymore, but there was no way she would call Ji Yunhuai herself to tell him that. She had her pride.
Yet she waited and waited, all evening long. Even after she had showered, put on her pajamas, and climbed into bed, there was still no word from Ji Yunhuai.
He hadn't even sent a single message.
Having grown used to exchanging goodnights with Ji Yunhuai every night before going to sleep, Lu Xiaoxiao began to feel a little down.
This couldn't be right, could it? Ji Yunhuai wasn't that stubborn. Had he really stopped contacting me just because I'd scolded him a little?
Was this any way to pursue someone?
Lu Xiaoxiao rolled around in bed a couple of times. Seeing that it was already late, past midnight, she silently vowed to wait just ten more minutes. If Ji Yunhuai still hadn't contacted her by then, she would stop waiting and go to sleep!
But this time, instead of hearing from Ji Yunhuai, she received a video call from Cui Anhe.
Lu Xiaoxiao paused, assuming the Eldest Miss had dreamed up some new antics. Without a second thought, she answered with a smile. "Oh? What brings Miss Cui calling so late at night? Did you have another fight with your brother? Go on, tell me! Let's see how unfairly Anze's been treated this time."
Her opening was lighthearted, but Cui Anhe didn't play along. Instead, she anxiously scanned everything visible through Lu Xiaoxiao's camera, then asked with a frown, "You're in bed? Brother Yun Huai isn't with you either?"
"Huh?" Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't quite follow and answered in bewilderment, "No! It's this late. Why would he still be with me?
