Gu Yuan originally thought that Chi Yu wouldn't answer her call so quickly.
But to her surprise, the call was answered immediately, and his voice came through the receiver, unusually cheerful—
"Yuanyuan, I'm here."
This was the first thing he said upon answering the phone.
Gu Yuan gathered her emotions and asked him, "You said yesterday you came to say goodbye, have you already returned to Yanjing?"
There was silence on the other end of the line.
For a long time, there was no reply.
So long that Gu Yuan glanced at her phone screen; if it weren't for the call ongoing page still being displayed, she would have thought he had hung up the call.
"Chi Yu, where are you?" Unable to get his answer, Gu Yuan asked again.
But the person on the other side seemed mute and just wouldn't answer her.
