Wait Until He Expired Before She Would Appear!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Yan Chengchi moved his finger and was about to tap on the green button to accept the call when the phone hung upon him.

He looked at the missed call and frowned. After hesitating for a few seconds, he pressed the call back button.

"Sorry, the number you call is not available …"

The mechanical voice remainder sounded unusually shrill to him.

The phone was switched off so soon after.

Yan Chengchi showed a gleam in his eyes. When he was just about to drop the phone, he discovered dozens of missed calls and one unread message.

He tapped it open and saw "An Chenxu" on the notification. The name felt so glaring to his eyes.

"Did something happen to you, Yueyue? Call me back after you read this message. I am very worried about you."

Yueyue…

What an intimate form of addressing.

He brought Xia Changyue away deliberately because he knew they had arranged to meet. Furthermore, he ensured she would be too tired to leave the bed.

An Chenxu could continue to wait until he expired before she would appear!

However, why did his heart still ache when this was the exact effect he wanted? A nagging pain…

There was a Brother Chenxu and a Big Brother Han. How many men was she entangled with?

Yan Chengchi squeezed the phone so tight that green veins appeared on the back of his hand.

Xia Changyue slept soundly for the entire night. She didn't even stir when the sunlight spilled into her room.

She only slowly awakened when it was close to noon.

Her body ached with every single little move. She had to hale sharply to ease the pain.

Even the air felt cold in the empty room…

Had Yan Chengchi left already?

She jumped out of bed quickly and reached out to grab her handbag.

She got the mobile phone out and was about to call Hanhan when she discovered the phone was turned off when the battery reached its limit.

Oh, dear!

She didn't have a chance to say goodbye to the little guy when Yan Chengchi took her home yesterday. He must be furious.

An Chenxu had to be the same. She suddenly disappeared from their appointment. What if An Chenxu went looking for her at her old apartment? He would discover that she no longer lived there…

Xia Changyue's face became rigid when she thought of this. She started to get nervous.

She quickly switched the phone on after she plugged it into the charger.

The phone screen flashed for a moment and then went dark again.

The phone was… spoiled?

Xia Changyue's eyes widened with astonishment. She stared at the phone that couldn't switch on in disbelief.

Her phone was in perfect working condition yesterday. How did it end up broken when it was only left in the bag for one night?

"Knock, knock."

She heard a knock on the room door.

Xia Changyue was stunned for a moment before she quickly climbed back to bed and covered herself completely with the blanket. Then she spoke.

"Who is it?"

"Miss Xia," the Butler's respectful voice could be heard outside of the door, "the production team just called and asked you to go over there as soon as possible."

"…"

The emergency contact in the personal information she had left for the production team was the phone number of the villa. She didn't dare to write Yan Chengchi's phone number.

If the production team had called the villa, it must have been an emergency.

Xia Changyue dared not delay at all. She quickly crawled out of bed and ran to the wardrobe to change her clothes. Then, she grabbed her handbag, her broken phone, and dashed out of the room.

She looked at the phone on the table just as she reached the first floor. She hesitated for a few seconds before she decided not to use it and then left the villa straight away.

Xia Changyue finally made her way to the production unit, but she didn't go in immediately. Instead, she found a paid phone nearby and called the little guy with the phone number she had memorized.

After she pacified the little guy, she asked him to tell An Chenxu on her behalf. Then, she hastened toward the production unit.

She saw a handsome figure standing at the entrance the moment she entered the production unit.
