"Boss Lin?" Xia Shangzhou couldn't wait for her voice, so he called out once more.
Right after he said those words, Lin Jiayi could clearly hear two dog barks coming from the other side. The barks sounded childish, so it was likely that they were puppies. Judging from how close they were, it was clear that they were coming from right beside him …
Lin Jiayi couldn't help but frown.
Did the navigator raise a puppy?
She remembered that he was very afraid of dogs. Back when she first learned of this weakness of his, it was when he had just joined the Lin Corporation. She brought him to a friend's house, and as soon as he entered the house, the two huskies raised by his friend immediately pounced at him, causing him to jump up in fright. He hid behind her, trembling in fear as he stared at the two huskies. "Boss Lin, c-can I leave first …"
Back then, she found his cowardly look especially amusing, so she refused to let him leave. In the two hours they spent at his friend's house, he stared at the two huskies with a pale face the entire time.
There was a long period of time when she mocked him mercilessly with the dogs, but he didn't get angry at all. Later on, when she met his younger sister, she realized that it was because he was a mischievous child who feared nothing in the world. In the mouths of a bunch of stray dogs, he insisted on snatching a piece of meat from them, and the stray dogs chased him across half a town … While he wasn't bitten, from then on, he started cowering whenever he saw a dog.
Back then, when his younger sister told him about this matter, she also looked as if she was telling a joke … His face reddened from holding back his anger, and he wanted to scold his younger sister, but she was happy to hear it, so he held it in …
Back then, she didn't understand what he meant by that. She thought that he was doting on his younger sister, but now that she thought about it, it seemed like he was really happy for her. No wonder she hadn't been as happy as she used to be after he left... It turned out that no one was thinking of ways to make her happy anymore.
While Lin Jiayi was in a daze, she didn't say a word. On the other end, Xia Shangzhou didn't hang up either. It was just that he thought that she had dialed the wrong number just like before, so he stopped listening to the conversation. Instead, he muttered to himself to the puppy beside him, "I dialed the wrong number again …"
"That's right. Only when I call the wrong number will I receive her call …"
Throughout the entire process, Lin Jiayi's phone hadn't left her ear, so when she heard Xia Shangzhou's words, her fingers couldn't help but tremble a little. It was hard to tell whether it was due to her age making it easier for her to be moved by small details, or it was because she wasn't feeling well today, but in any case, she suddenly felt a surge of emotions welling up in her chest.
She didn't say anything. Over the phone, she heard the sound of Xia Shangzhou's puppy gnawing on something.
As Lin Jiayi listened on, she suddenly felt a lump in her throat, and her eyes reddened.
She tried very hard to calm herself down, but she couldn't control it. In the end, a very fragmented sob leaked out from the corner of her mouth.
Although it was very soft, Xia Shangzhou, who was on the other side of the phone, heard it.
"Boss Lin?"
"Mr Lin, you …" Perhaps he wanted to say that he was crying … but at the last moment, he changed his words, "... What's wrong?"
