Gu Xiaoai could almost imagine him going berserk on the other side of the phone, his eyes glaring as if they could devour someone.
“Sorry, something came up unexpectedly… I will personally apologize to Liu Zimi later,” Gu Xiaoai said with a hint of regret. She had scheduled an interview with Liu Zimi, but instead, she had run off alone from C City.
It was her fault, after all; she really owed her an apology for the work commitment.
Li Juefeng fell silent on the other end of the phone.
“Hello? Hello?” Gu Xiaoai looked at her phone curiously. The call was still ongoing, so why had the Tyrant suddenly stopped yelling? It was unlike his usual temper.
“Get to the villa and wait for me now!” Li Juefeng’s cold voice came through before he abruptly hung up.
…
Gu Xiaoai looked at the darkened screen speechlessly. She swore, she really hated it when someone hung up the phone first!
Especially when Li Juefeng did it with such a commanding and domineering tone, it made her feel even more demeaned.
Ignoring Li Juefeng’s anger, Gu Xiaoai made a call back to her uncle, making up a lie to smooth things over. Her uncle just assumed she was out chasing news stories and didn’t suspect anything.
As the sky grew darker, realizing she would have to stay the night, Gu Xiaoai simply sat down on a nearby step and casually began scrolling through her messages, which were all from Li Juefeng.
“Gu Xiaoai, you dare to turn off your phone?!”
“Gu Xiaoai, call me back right now!”
“Gu Xiaoai, if you don’t show up soon, forget about getting any exclusive news from E.S!”
“Damn it, Gu Xiaoai, did something happen to you?”
“The Magazine Publisher said you left for an interview, why haven’t you arrived yet!”
“Gu Xiaoai, if you don’t show up, I’m asking your uncle to send someone!”
“Don’t tell me you’re jealous of Liu Zimi! It’s normal for men to flirt.”
“Damn it, I won’t touch that woman Liu Zimi anymore!”
“Gu Xiaoai!”
“Dead or alive, call me back!”
“Great. Gu Xiaoai! You just wait, don’t let me find you! Otherwise, I’ll definitely kill you!”
…
Gu Xiaoai couldn’t bother to read the rest; they were all filled with exclamation points, indicative of Li Juefeng’s mood at the time… But he probably hadn’t gone to her uncle for people; otherwise, her uncle would have definitely asked something on the phone just now.
He still remembered her words. If he really had blurted it out in front of her uncle, she wouldn’t be able to stay in this family or this Magazine Publisher any longer.
It was just an afternoon without turning on her phone, and he was worried something had happened to her and also thought she was jealous…
This man, was he actually concerned about her?
