(Chapter Eight)
Ling Ruonan made the call to Luo Xusheng from the privacy of her own bedroom.
As she dialed the number she knew by heart, she was very nervous, her slender fingers trembling uncontrollably.
She was also filled with anticipation, longing to hear the voice she hadn't heard in many years as soon as the call was connected.
But to her great disappointment, the call went unanswered.
However, she could understand since Luo Xusheng's situation was special; he wasn't always available to take calls.
Thus, she sent two messages and did not plan to wait any longer.
Unexpectedly, just as she finished texting, the phone rang back. She hurriedly pressed the answer button.
The initial awkwardness, the not knowing what to say, weighed heavily on her heart and made her feel very sad.
She felt that many things had faded or disappeared in the silence and separation, such as emotions and sentiments.
