On his handsome and chiseled face, his long and narrow eyes flickered, filled with unreadable emotions.
After a long time, he picked up his cell phone again and made a call to the apartment.
The phone rang four times, and Chi Yang was almost about to hang up when there was a sudden movement on the other end of the phone.
Chi Yang could hear the phone being picked up from the bedside, and because the owner could not hold it firmly, it fell to the ground with a bang before being picked up again.
“Hey——”
A bewildered voice rang out, and although no one could be seen, Chi Yang could already imagine the cute look of his fiancée’s confused face; her eyes closed, and with a few strands of hair stubbornly sticking out of her head, looking like a sleeping cat who had been forced to wake up, with a helpless gaze in her eyes that had yet to come into focus.
“Nuannuan.”
Chi Yang’s voice rang out softly in the dark night, soon drowned out by the waves of the sea. However, Zhong Nuannuan still heard it.
Her initial confusion and laziness was instantly replaced by joy. “Big Brother Chi Yang!”
Hearing the little girl’s loud and joyful voice, the serious look on Chi Yang’s handsome face could not help but raise into a beautiful smile that could even anger the gods above.
“Yeah. I’m sorry I’ve disturbed your sleep.”
“Don’t worry, don’t worry about it! It really doesn’t bother me at all! Big Brother Chi Yang, why are you free to call me right now? Did your mission go smoothly? Was it dangerous? Why aren’t you sleeping yet at this late hour?”
“There was no danger, and the mission has been successfully completed. I’m on my way back now.”
“Really?”
On the other side of the phone came Zhong Nuannuan’s happy cheer, which was so loud that it could almost punch a hole through the ceiling.
“Yeah.”
“Have you eaten dinner then? How much longer before you get back? I… Should I go to the supermarket to buy you two boxes of instant noodles?”
Chi Yang did not know whether to laugh or cry.
He knew that his Nuannuan did not know how to cook. However, he was very happy that she had the intention of buying him two boxes of instant noodles at this time.
“It’s okay Nuannuan, I went to another country today, and I’m just on my way back into the country now. I have to report to the military base after I return, so I can’t come back tonight. I just couldn’t rest well, and was afraid you’d worry about me, so I decided to give you a call.”
“Then how much longer before you return to the country?”
“About an hour more.”
“You should hurry up and sleep then, if you can’t fall asleep, you can also close your eyes and rest your mind. You’ll definitely have to report to work when you come back later, and there’ll be many things for you to do, so you should take this time to rest.”
“Okay. You rest well then.”
“Okay, I’ll also come to the military base to accompany you after school tomorrow.”
“Sure. Muah.”
“Pfft…”
Zhong Nuannuan did not have the time to react, and when she suddenly heard such a cold and serious man like Chi Yang say “Muah” to her, she instantly snorted.
Oh my, this scene was so weird!
Chi Yang raised his eyebrows. “What’s wrong? Didn’t you say that we have to say ‘Muah’ as a matter of principle whenever we say goodbye? Have I used it wrongly?”
“No! You’re right!” Zhong Nuannuan immediately replied in the affirmitive.
“Big Brother Chi Yang, you have to say ‘Muah’ to me every time we say goodbye in the future.”
Chi Yang’s eyes were glistened with joy, and he obediently said, “Sure.”
After hanging up the phone, Zhong Nuannuan exhaled.
She knew that with Chi Yang’s powerful powers of observation, he would definitely have suspected her and called her as soon as possible.
