I can't

The next day, Fei Chuan held his phone, waiting for a message from Bei Sangyun. But none came.

He waited until lunch, still nothing.

Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and decided to call her. Not seeing her for just a day made him ache for her presence.

Throughout the day, his thoughts kept drifting to Bei Sangyun. What was she doing? Had she eaten? Was she getting enough rest? Was she in trouble?

Did she....miss him?

Because he missed her deeply.

The phone rang for a long time. Fei Chuan waited patiently. Finally, the call was answered.

The other end was silent, so Fei Chuan spoke first.

"...Bei Sangyun?"

There was no response, but he could hear her breathing on the other line.

Just the sound of her breath made his longing intensify.

"...I hope I'm not disturbing you."

"...You're not," Bei Sangyun's voice finally came through.
