Putting Half My House In Your Name

The runaway Chen Enci, upon first meeting Qin Jie, mistook him for the landlord: "Renting your room and bed!" Chen Enci, who moved into Qin Jie's house, woke up hungry in the middle of the night and knocked on Qin Jie's door: "Renting pots and pans!" A month later, Chen Enci saw Qin Jie bring home a pretty lady. He lingered at the front door before banging on Qin Jie's door: "Renting bathroom, facial cleanser, and shower gel!" Half a year later, Chen Enci, drunk, leaned into Qin Jie’s arms under the influence: "Renting... you!" ... We have all become the people we dreamed of being. We haven’t forgotten each other. The alternate title of this book is "You Above the Milky Way".

Chapter 96: I usually don’t lose it (2)

...

Qin Jie, who had pulled two consecutive all-nighters, was woken by the ringing of his phone, frowning deeply.

He responded with a soft "hm", and after a few seconds, reached out to grab his phone.

As he swiped to answer the call, his slender fingers ruffled his hair, rubbing his face vigorously.

"Hello?"

The still half-asleep Qin Jie's first greeting didn't come out quite right, he cleared his throat twice and said 'hello' again.

"Hello, this is the police from the station near Phoenix Tree Villa. I'm on duty tonight..."

The name, Phoenix Tree Villa, seemed familiar... the still drowsy Qin Jie failed to respond properly.

"Do you know a girl called..." the police officer on the other end of the line trailed off.

Probably covering the microphone, a soughing noise interrupted his words. Then the police officer's voice came through again: "...Chen Xi?"

A police station, Chen Xi... It's been less than four hours since their WeChat conversation, what's she up to now?
