It was always a very bad feeling to have no one answer the phone he dialed.
In the past few days, Lin Feng had already experienced this feeling twice.
But at this time, he wasn't angry at the girl who didn't pick up the phone. On the contrary, he couldn't help but feel anxious and worried after the phone couldn't get through.
Just like what he said to his childhood sweetheart, TangTang wouldn't turn off her phone easily if it was under normal circumstances.
It was unlikely that the phone ran out of power because he knew very well that Tang Bingyao always carried a power bank in her small schoolbag. At least it would not be to the extent that her phone was still turned off after half a day.
Then …
All that was left was a possibility that made people even more uneasy.
This feeling for Lin Feng was actually the same as the situation when he could not get through to An Xin. At that time, he was in China and did not know the specific situation of the girl in Manchester. Faced with all the unknown information, all kinds of uneasiness and anxiety became more and more intense to the point that he was about to collapse and go crazy. His mind was full of all kinds of uncontrollable guesses in the worst direction.
And now — —
He came to Manchester City, but happened to be separated from Tang Bingyao in different countries. He had no specific information about the girl at all and did not know the reason why the other party's phone was turned off for so long.
More importantly, the difference was.
This time, in fact, he vaguely felt that this matter might be something he could not shirk.
Because just before he left the country, his mind was completely occupied by worries and wild thoughts about his childhood sweetheart on the other side of the ocean, causing him to be unable to control his emotions and anger at all. Even when facing Tang Tang, he gave her an unpleasant expression and spoke harshly.
Now that he thought about it, there was no reason for him to lose his temper with Tang Tang.
Because the girl had been entrusted by Steamed Bun to keep it a secret.
However, he had previously blamed the girl without any explanation and treated her as a punching bag. This was the truly outrageous thing to do.
In the morning, he was already ready to call the girl to apologize.
But now.
The phone call did not get through, which began to make Lin Feng's heart sink little by little.
If …
If it was really because of him that caused such a situation, then no matter how Tang Tang was affected and hurt, he would never be able to forgive himself.
But more importantly, this actually had nothing to do with whether he forgave her or not.
More importantly, the girl that he was extremely familiar with and even liked, such a pure and kind girl, had no reason to be hurt even a little bit.
Lin Feng dialed the number a few more times, but every time he heard the system's mechanical "Phone Turned Off." Lin Feng's expression became more and more unsightly. He gripped the phone so tightly that his fingers turned white.
An Xin didn't have time to comfort Lin Feng. She took out her phone and dialed another number.
But soon, she put down the phone in disappointment.
"Senior and Sister Xiao Wu don't seem to have a good signal."
"I tried a few times, but I couldn't get through."
Immediately after, she looked at Lin Feng and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen to Tang Tang."
Lin Feng nodded absent-mindedly. He knew that An Xin was trying to comfort him, but he couldn't relax until he knew what was going on with Tang Tang.
"Oh, right."
Lin Feng raised his head and looked at An Xin.
"I'll give Sister Xue a call. Maybe she knows."
An Xin was taken aback, but she quickly nodded.
"Okay!"
In fact, neither of them held much hope. Whether it was Su Xue or Number One and Number Five, they had just called, they were all incredibly busy these past few days. As for Tang Bingyao, who was in the country, they probably didn't know what was going on.
It was just that … they didn't have a better idea or a better candidate to ask for help.
They could only pin their hopes on this.
Du! Du! Du!
The call connected.
Lin Feng was holding the phone in his ear while An Xin was standing next to him. Both of them were anxiously waiting for Lin Feng.
Finally.
Su Xue's familiar voice came through the phone.
"Hello?"
"Is this Lin Feng?"
Su Xue's voice was mixed in with the hubbub of voices on the other side of the phone. It took quite a while for the other side to hear each other's voice and communicate. "Hey, hey," Su Xue's voice was mixed in the background.
"What's up? Are you still with Steamed Bun?"
Lin Feng replied with a grunt, then quickly asked, "What's wrong with you?
"Sister Xue, have you heard from Tang Tang?"
"I've been calling her since this morning, but her phone has been switched off. I can't get ahold of her —"
Before he could finish, he heard Su Xue's voice coming from the other end of the line.
"Oh, Tang Tang."
"I know!"
When Lin Feng heard this, he was dumbfounded.
"You … know?"
This was truly a huge surprise. He didn't hold much hope at first, but who knew that when he called Su Xue … he would actually get something.
"Yeah!"
Even though Su Xue's voice was loud, it was still audible over the crowd. Lin Feng and Anxin could clearly hear the rest of her words.
"She and Little Zeng set off for Manchester City this afternoon!"
"They're probably still on the plane!"
"Oh, right. Didn't I tell you? Hahaha, maybe I forgot. I just heard it from Xiao Wu yesterday. "
"So there's no hurry! She and Zeng will be in England tonight. You can talk when you meet up. Alright, I'm still shopping with Sheng. The bags in the luxury stores here are so beautiful. There aren't so many in China. Sheng, can you ask how much this bag costs? "
Then, the phone was hung up with a whoosh.
Lin Feng and An Xin were left staring at each other in dismay.
Lin Feng was stunned.
"Sister Xue said Tang Tang is coming today?"
His tone still carried a sense of bewilderment, as if he had yet to regain his senses.
An Xin tried hard to compose herself. She tried to recall what she heard on Lin Feng's phone. "Hmm … I think Zeng is coming too?"
Then the atmosphere was silent for a moment.
The two looked at each other again.
He still felt as if he was in a trance and unreal as if he was in a dream.
Meanwhile.
London, England.
At Heathrow International Airport, a whistling roar could be heard from the horizon. A flight from Shanghai Pudong Airport broke through the clouds in the night sky and slowly descended.
