The call on the other end rang for a long time, until it was hung up without anyone answering.
Ji Yao felt somewhat discouraged, guessing that Xu Ye might be currently avoiding her. However, no matter what, she was still his subordinate and it shouldn't have come to this.
With that thought, she dialed the number again. This time, it was picked up after about ten seconds, and the other side was bustling, seeming very noisy.
"What's up? Do you need me for something? I'm currently out of town on a business trip, quite busy."
The words Ji Yao needed to borrow money were stuck in her throat. She didn't know whether Xu Ye was actually on a business trip or just making an excuse, but it seemed that on the day of her divorce, Xu Ye indeed had been preoccupied and had left in a hurry without accompanying her to the bar.
"I called you because I wanted to ask... I urgently need some money on my end, and wonder if I could get an advance on this month's salary."
