In front of Chen Ke, Mai Qiqi dialed the number she had just received from Li Shan. Surprisingly, this time the call went through instead of giving a switched-off message—beep—beep—it actually connected.
She looked up at Chen Ke with a hint of surprise. Chen Ke immediately understood her sentiment and his face also brightened with anticipation.
The phone rang for about ten rings, and just when Mai Qiqi was about to give up, someone finally picked up.
"Hello."
It was still Chuchu's voice!
Mai Qiqi had forgotten her initial thought of fobbing off, and couldn't help but excitedly shout, "Chuchu!"
That shout was like a thunderbolt in spring, suddenly tearing through the haze and reviving everything around.
Chen Ke had never thought Mai Qiqi's voice could sound so pleasant, and he perked up his ears and leaned forward slightly to catch more of the conversation.
