Guoguo pursed her lips and did not do as she was told.
The ringing of the phone was especially piercing in the study.
As if agitated, Lu Bancheng suddenly reached out and swiped the screen to answer the call. He then held Guoguo's wrist and raised the phone to her ear.
"Lu Bancheng?" As Xu Wennuan's voice came through the phone, Guoguo could clearly feel Lu Bancheng's fingers tremble violently. She subconsciously turned her head and met his eyes.
He did not say a word, but when he looked back at her, there was a silent plea in his eyes.
In Guoguo's memory, Lu Bancheng was actually very arrogant and rarely begged anyone. However, ever since his leg had been crippled, he had always begged me for help because of that girl … Guoguo averted her gaze and listened to Xu Wennuan's voice through the phone again. She could not speak no matter what.
Lu Bancheng gently increased the strength of his fingers that were holding her wrist.
Guoguo subconsciously glanced in Lu Bancheng's direction, and the man moved his lips at her. He didn't make any sound, but she could clearly see what he wanted to say from the shape of his lips. "Guoguo, please."
Guoguo clenched her teeth hard and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. When Lu Bancheng once again mouthed, "Please, I really don't have any other choice," her eyes reddened, and she compromised into the phone. "Hello."
As Guoguo's voice rang out, Xu Wennuan's end fell silent.
"Are you Miss Xu? I'm Guoguo. "
"He-hello. I'm looking for Lu … Lu Bancheng … Is … is he there?"
Guoguo instinctively looked at Lu Bancheng. When he heard Xu Wennuan's stuttering words, he did not have the slightest intention of going back on his word. He nodded at her without hesitation, indicating that she should do as he said.
"Is this Brother Bancheng? He's taking a shower … "Guoguo gripped the desk tightly and replied calmly.
Before she could finish her sentence, a "pa" sound came from the phone.
"Hello? Miss Xu? Hello? " Guoguo was worried that something had happened to Xu Wennuan, so she called out to her repeatedly, but there was no response. Just as she looked at Lu Bancheng to ask him what to do next, Lu Bancheng, who was in his wheelchair, suddenly snatched the phone from her hand, hung up, and called Xu Wennuan back.
The phone rang a few times, but it didn't hang up.
She refused to pick up his call … Lu Bancheng held the phone in his hand and remained motionless for a long time. Then he slowly lowered the phone from his ear and placed it on the desk. He raised his head and smiled at Guoguo. As if nothing had happened, he said in a gentle voice, "Guoguo, it's late. Go to bed early."
"Brother Bancheng …" Guoguo said worriedly.
Lu Bancheng smiled. "It's not good for girls to sleep late. Be a good girl and go to bed."
Guoguo's eyes welled up, and she couldn't say another word. She turned around and ran out of the study. As she closed the door, she looked into the room and clearly saw Lu Bancheng's hand clutching his crippled leg.
Guoguo raised her hand and wiped away the tears that were rolling down her face before she hurriedly closed the door.
She leaned against the door and held her breath for a moment. She could vaguely hear the sound of a lighter being lit in the study behind her. After a while, she could hear Lu Bancheng coughing violently.
