The man on the other end of the phone was obviously a little disappointed, but he didn't say much. After the two of them chatted casually for a while, they came to an understanding. Bai Lu thought that her thinking was right. People overseas were more carefree.
After hanging up, she felt that she had resolved one of her worries. She wouldn't have to feel awkward when facing Demon in the future.
Holding the phone and looking at the black screen, Bai Lu couldn't help but think of the call that Liang Feifan gave her in the morning. Before she hung up, she seemed to have said, "I'll call you tonight, right?"
…
Should she call?
At this time, it should be late at night in A City, right?
He … was still at work? Or was he eating? Or was he doing something else?
When there was no opening for missing someone, it would press on one's internal organs. When the door was closed, it wouldn't leak out at all. But once someone opened the door, it couldn't be held back anymore.
She missed him a lot. She had missed him a lot for the past five months, but he hadn't contacted her during those five months. So, she could only hide her longing in her heart. But now …
She should be able to give him a call, right?
Bai Lu pinched the space between her eyebrows, feeling a headache coming on. She never thought that she would need to think for so long to make a call. Wasn't Liang Feifan her husband? As a wife, what was wrong with giving her husband a call?
She knitted her brows. This thought prompted her to quickly find Liang Feifan's number. In a spurt of energy, she dialed and waited for the man on the other end to pick up.
A City, in the private room of a hotel.
Ye Lian had just put down her chopsticks when she heard the phone beside her vibrate.
It was Liang Feifan's phone.
She glanced at the door of the washroom. It was closed. The man's tall and straight figure was vaguely reflected on the glass. He probably wouldn't come out yet. Ye Lian subconsciously glanced at the screen of her phone. The name jumping on the screen made her expression change abruptly. A sharp glint flashed across her eyes in an instant.
Bai Lu, she really didn't give up on her evil intentions. She actually dared to call Fei Fan?
Was it because she knew that she was about to marry Feifan, so she couldn't wait any longer? Can't hold it in anymore?
Ye Lian glanced at the closed bathroom door. Almost instinctively, she picked up Liang Feifan's phone and answered the call.
"Hey, who is it?" Her voice was soft, and she deliberately pretended that she didn't know who the other party was. She completely acted like the mistress of the house. "Are you looking for Extraordinary? He's taking a bath. If there's anything, I can pass on the message for you. "
"…"
"Hello? Who are you? "
"…"
"I'm sorry, but Feifan doesn't have your number saved here. However, this is my husband's personal phone, so I'm sure those who can call him must know him. Could you please tell me your name? I'm Ye Lian, Feifan's wife. "
"…"
"Hey …"
"Beep, beep, beep —"
The call was hung up. Ye Lian's face lit up with a smug smile. The door of the washroom suddenly swung open. Her fingertips quickly deleted the call record. Just as she was about to put the phone back, she saw Liang Feifan walking over. Seeing that she was holding his phone, Liang Feifan frowned. "You have a call?"
He quickly walked over and wanted to take the phone from Ye Lian's hand.
"I don't have a call." Ye Lian didn't return the phone to him. She smiled and shook it. "I was bored, so I wanted to play with your phone. By the way, isn't WeChat popular recently? I downloaded one two days ago. Let me download it for you. "
"There's no need."
Liang Feifan was obviously unhappy. He reached out and snatched the phone from Ye Lian's hand. His thick brows were tightly knitted, and his eyes were filled with displeasure. When he opened his mouth, he said sternly, "In the future, don't touch my phone. This is my personal phone. Do you understand?"
"Personal phone …" Ye Lian sounded disappointed. The next second, she became sharp again. "Personal phone? So I can't touch it? Why? We're about to get married. Is there something that you can't tell me? Feifan, I … "
"Yes!"
Liang Feifan nodded honestly. He looked at Ye Lian with a sad face and frowned. "Everyone has their own space, including me and you. Ye Lian, you also have things that you can't tell me, right? I hope you can understand that marriage isn't childish. It's like a crystal ball. We can see everything about each other clearly. I won't pry into your privacy. You have to remember not to cross the line in the future! "
…
In the parking lot of the hotel.
Ye Lian's fair hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. In her mind, the man's deep, rich, and stern voice echoed intermittently.
— — Everyone has their own space, including me and you.
…
— — I hope you can understand that marriage isn't childish. It's like a crystal ball. We can see everything about each other clearly. I won't pry into your privacy. You have to remember not to cross the line in the future.
…
Was she crossing the line?
No, she didn't think that she was crossing the line at all! She was about to become his wife. Why was it that even taking out his personal phone was considered a violation of the rules?
What a joke. What right did Bai Lu have to keep her in his mind?
She had always thought that after working so hard for so long, even if her heart was made of iron, it should have warmed up a little. However, Bai Lu's words were like ice that froze not only Liang Feifan's heart but also her own …
Ye Lian's hands trembled as she started the car. At the same time, a hoarse female voice came from the stereo. She was singing, "… I hate myself for thinking too highly of you … I love you so much that my heart hurts. I hate you so much that I hate myself for being weak. I love you so much that I've never been touched by sorrow. I love you so much that I've forgotten the reason why I need love …"
…
Her entire body tensed up.
She was also a proud princess. She was the daughter of the Ye family, but it was only because she loved a man too much.
In this lifetime, she wanted nothing more than to give herself to that man. In the end, how could she allow herself to get nothing?
No, Liang Feifan would definitely be her man. If she couldn't have him, then she wouldn't let anyone else have him!
When Liang Feifan got into the car, he looked at the time on his watch. He took out a cigarette, lit it, and took two puffs. He didn't start the car. Instead, he placed his phone on the dashboard and stared at the black screen with a burning gaze. When he saw his own reflection clearly, he frowned and reached out to take a puff of the cigarette.
After smoking almost half of the cigarette, the entire car was silent except for the sound of his own breathing.
Liang Feifan rolled down the car window and threw the cigarette out. After a moment, he finally picked up his phone, found the number, and dialed it.
The phone rang for a long time, but no one picked up. Liang Feifan's furrowed brows appeared even colder and sharper.
Actually, he had been waiting for her call all night. When he went to the restroom earlier, he had left in such a hurry that he didn't bring his phone with him. However, his instincts told him that there must have been a call from her, but the call log didn't show that it was from her, so he couldn't be sure. Now that he had called her, but she didn't pick up, Liang Feifan was basically certain.
If he guessed correctly, Ye Lian must have picked up the call just now. In that case, Bai Lu must have misunderstood.
Liang Feifan reached out to pinch his aching glabella. Then he changed the number and dialed it. "Guan Chao, make some more preparations. I'm flying to England tonight."
Guan Chao knew that he was going to England to look for Bai Lu, so he had a lot of things to prepare. Moreover, at this juncture, he couldn't let the people at the Family Ye know about it. He muttered to himself for a moment, then said carefully, "Mr. Liang, if you leave now, the Family Ye might notice. How about … I make the arrangements for tomorrow morning?"
Even though Liang Feifan couldn't wait to fly to England immediately, he didn't want to make things difficult for himself. He nodded and said, "Okay, as soon as possible."
…
England.
Bai Lu hated her current state. She tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She looked out the window at the moon hanging high in the night sky. Wasn't this the state of insomnia?
…
She had been in the UK for five months. In fact, everything was normal before that. However, Liang Feifan's sudden appearance broke everything that she had tried so hard to calm down. It had only been two days since he left, but she felt that each day was like a year.
She couldn't sleep. She really couldn't sleep. The feeling of insomnia was too unbearable.
She turned over and sat up. Her temples were throbbing with pain. She had no choice but to turn on her computer and surf the web, hoping that she would feel sleepy.
However, her mind was in a mess. It was all over the aftermath of that phone call. She didn't know why Liang Feifan's personal phone was in Ye Lian's hands. She said he was taking a shower. What kind of shower was he taking? After … taking a shower? Or …
No, she should trust Liang Feifan. Wasn't he her husband?
She had clearly told Chu Weiye that love was tolerance and understanding. So now, she should also trust him. She should trust him.
…
Bored, Bai Lu clicked on the web pages. They were all about design. She took a sip of the warm milk on the side. She looked at QQ, which she hadn't logged in for a long time, and clicked on it.
After leaving City A, she hadn't logged in to QQ. Actually, there weren't many people on QQ. When she used to go to work, she often hung up on QQ and chatted with Qin Ziwen. However, after her accident, she changed her phone number, so she really didn't contact Qin Ziwen.
