"But he never called me." Jiang Biyun suddenly burst into tears, "I went abroad for so long, you all had my contact information, yet he never called me. Maybe his protest wasn't about the relationship we were forced to end, but about his own life being controlled by his parents."
"Lin Deng never called you?" He Zhilan was astonished, "That can't be. When Lin Deng asked me for your number, he was so excited. I was still waiting for him to bring you back from abroad to see me."
He Teng had been standing beside He Zhilan the whole time. Hearing this, he chimed in, "Lin Deng told me he did call Jiang Biyun, but a man answered. From the way Lin Deng described the situation, it seemed like the man said something to him."
Upon hearing that, He Zhilan quickly relayed He Teng's words to Jiang Biyun and said, "Biyun, could it be that your boyfriend cut off all contact between you and us friends back home?"
