Su Zhinian frowned involuntarily. With his acute hearing, he focused all his attention on his ears, and he realized other than the sound of the wind, there was no other sound on her side. It was eerily quiet.
A bad feeling rose in his heart. Before Song Qingchun could answer his question, he asked again, "Where are you now?"
When Su Zhinian first asked, "Where are you now?", Song Qingchun's heart had stopped beating. She gathered her courage and prepared to admit her mistake, but when she heard Su Zhinian's' question 'again, her breath caught in her throat, and her fingers shook. Her phone almost fell to the ground. Unable to come up with an excuse, she called his name again in desperation. "Mr. Su … I …"
Song Qingchun's first "Mr. Su" was too fast, and Su Zhinian's attention was focused on the sound of the wind, so he did not notice the change in her voice. She was so nervous that her voice was much louder, and when she stuttered, it sounded like a nasal sound.
Su Zhinian's heart squeezed. She's crying?
Does this mean that her confession didn't work?
His heart was filled with both joy and pain, twisting his soft heart into a bloody mess.
Su Zhinian interrupted her again and repeated his earlier question. "I asked, where are you now?"
Probably because he was too worried about her, the tone of his voice was harsh.
Normally, he gave off a pressuring aura, so this made Song Qingchun, who was already feeling guilty about returning late again, even more afraid. She bit on her lips and apologized unconsciously. "I'm sorry …"
"Tell me first, where are you?" Perhaps because he didn't get an answer after asking twice, his tone became a little anxious.
Song Qingchun was scared into silence. After a second, she answered honestly, "I'm in the mountain north of the city …"
The mountain north of the city? Wasn't she going to confess to Qin Yinan? How did she end up there?
The frown on Su Zhinian's face deepened, and his brain spun rapidly. Then, he was reminded of the dinner party that SW Empire was planning to open a holiday resort in the area and had asked him if he was interested in investing in it. Actually, he knew Qin Yinan was from SW Empire, but when he heard the news, he did not think it was Qin Yinan. Who would have thought it was him? So, for the sake of her confession, she had traveled so far … It's already so late, but she still hasn't returned to the city. Is she not planning to come back? Then why was she crying earlier? Tears of joy from the success of the confession?
Su Zhinian's lips were pressed into a thin line as he stared out the window. He thought about how he had come up with an excuse to call her earlier, saying that he had too much to drink and asking her to pick him up, but who would have thought she would be so far away …
Song Qingchun waited for a long time, but there was no reply from Su Zhinian. Through the phone, she could not see his expression, so her confidence dropped even further. She swallowed several times and explained in a small voice, "I wanted to go home, but my car broke down on the way. I can't start it no matter how hard I try. Furthermore, I'm alone here, so I need someone to help me contact a tow truck company."
Actually, Song Qingchun really did not want to trouble Su Zhinian. She only explained so much because she was afraid he would be angry.
