Ever since he suffered from a stomachache because of skipping a meal last time, An Ziqi would call him to remind him to have his meals at the usual time. Even when she could not have dinner with him on the occasional night due to being occupied with something, she would prepare the dishes he liked and leave them in the fridge for his late-night supper.
It was mealtime now and she had not called yet, he wondered what she was busy with.
He put down the utensils in his hand, picked up a napkin, wiped the corner of his mouth, then stood up to address Bai Xinxin, "I need to do something, I will step out for a phone call."
Bai Xinxin smiled obediently and nodded, "Sure, please come back soon after your call."
Xiao Moli walked to the lounge, pulled out his phone, and dialed that number- a number he had grown so familiar with recently.
The call was finally answered after a long time ringing, An Ziqi's upbeat voice came from the other end.
"Hello, what's up?"
