Chapter 656: Chapter 657: Do You Have a Cell Phone?
Instead, he turned to ask, “Do you have a mobile phone?”
His voice, calm yet slightly hoarse, was extrely cold.
Ling Xi glanced at him, ignoring her question, and even asking to borrow her phone in such a cold tone, what an attitude!
She reluctantly placed the breakfast on the bedside table and then glared at him, “What for?”
“To make a call.”
“No!”
“””” Qin Sijue raised his eyes, scowling at the seemingly gentle yet strong-willed girl in front of him.
He was never one to ask favors from others. At this mont, asking to borrow a mobile phone had already lowered himself to the utmost, but to Ling Xi, it seed as though he was not rely asking to borrow the phone but rather demanding: do you have a mobile phone? I need to make a call!
It made it seem like if he needed to make a call, she was obliged to hand over a phone to him!
Eventually, Qin Sijue just turned his eyes away and then, forcing his body, tried to sit up.
It must be said, his face truly could captivate anyone. Any woman would surely fall for him, not to ntion soone like Ling Xi, who was at the age where emotions begin to blossom.
Seeing him trying to get up, Ling Xi quickly approached and nervously spoke, “Don’t get up; your wound will split!”
Qin Sijue just glanced at her and did not stop his movents to rise despite her words.
Finally, he leaned up and turned his head to look out the window.
“What day is it today?”
Still maintaining that lofty, arrogant deanor as he looked out the window, Ling Xi wasn’t sure of his exact identity, but from his deanor, it seed he was not an ordinary person.
“It’s the eighth day of the new year.” Looking at him, Ling Xi eventually answered his question.
Qin Sijue was taken aback.
He had already disappeared for five days?
His intense, sharp gaze turned directly to Ling Xi, “Do you really have no mobile phone?”
With a voice low and deep, yet emitting a dominating aura, Ling Xi instinctively felt sowhat compelled.
This formidable presence, it’s like that of an ancient tyrant.
Facing his icy, sharp gaze, Ling Xi swallowed and said, “I… don’t have a phone.”
Having been fired as an intern that very day, she had smashed her phone in frustration and had planned to buy a new one upon returning, but then she encountered this man at a critical mont of life and death, which caused her to spend all her savings and left her no ti to buy a new phone.
Qin Sijue frowned, instinctively blurting out, “Why do you have nothing?”
“””” Ling Xi was taken aback.
She then spoke discontentedly, “I just don’t have a phone, okay? What else could I not have?”
This man is so strange, always carrying himself so high and mighty.
Qin Sijue said no more, still looking out the window, his gaze sowhat distant.
Ling Xi looked at him, then glanced at the breakfast. Counting up, he hadn’t eaten anything from yesterday till now.
Oh, no, to be precise, including the three days he was unconscious plus today, he hadn’t eaten anything!
“Hey, you haven’t eaten for a long ti, don’t you… don’t you feel hungry?”
Qin Sijue remained silent, not even looking at her, his mind incessantly filled with the image of Gu Qiangwei’s face.
Thinking of her, frantic with worry in Jingcheng, maybe even thinking he had died and crying in sorrow, made his heart feel as though it was being gouged by a sharp blade, aching faintly.
Seeing he was silent, Ling Xi pursed her lips and did not speak further.
Here, Qin Sijue, injured and hospitalized without any identification or phone, was a billionaire whose pockets were now utterly empty.
