"Don’t guess, it’s none of that. Let’s talk upstairs." Wen Nuan shook her head, recalling Tong Xi’s call, and couldn’t help but grab her hand, "Did Leng Yan call?"
Tong Xi nodded and handed her phone over, "Yes, he said he couldn’t find you and asked if you were with . Alright, now that you’re here, hurry and return his call. He’s very worried about you."
"Not yet." Wen Nuan waved her hand; she didn’t want to tell him where she was. She would wait a bit, let her go upstairs and rest for a while. She had to tell not just him, but also her dad.
It was a bit willful of her to run out like this, but she really didn’t want to talk to him right now. She was afraid that another argunt might make them lose the courage to stay together.
"Did you two have a fight?"
Tong Xi looked at her expression and couldn’t help but guess.
Wen Nuan nodded, then shook her head, "Not quite, it’s about Ji Wei. There’s always so knot in my heart. Good Xixi, let’s ask when we’re upstairs. First, get a glass of water."
Her throat felt hoarse, as if sothing was stuck in there. She wasn’t really thirsty, yet she felt uncomfortable.
As she drank the water, she avoided being questioned. Seeing her irritable deanor, Tong Xi dared not say much, just waited for her to speak.
Wen Nuan took Tong Xi’s phone to call Wen Qingyan, but before she could dial, the landline in Tong Xi’s room rang, and she glanced at it, smiling involuntarily.
The father and daughter had a ntal connection!
Wen Qingyan had waited a long ti without seeing Wen Nuan return, and finally got worried. He found a phone number Wen Nuan occasionally left and called, "Xixi."
"Dad, it’s , Nuannuan."
Hearing the loving voice on the other end, Wen Nuan’s nose turned sour, her eyes filled with tears. She tried hard not to let them fall, cleared her throat, and spoke.
Wen Qingyan had been anxious all along, finally easing a breath, "You scared to death, child. Going to Xixi’s place, why didn’t you call ho?"
She had always been so sensible, rarely coming ho late. If she did, she would tell him she went to have dessert.
Actually, when Wen Nuan was sad, it really was the case. She’d eat sothing like desserts or ice cream, vent her emotions into them, and by the ti she returned, she would be all smiles, happily hugging his neck, calling him dad. Saying she was craving, went to eat, that’s why she ca ho late.
He would pinch her cheek, smiling, calling her a little glutton. But even he didn’t know that when she said she was craving, she was suppressing such sadness.
"I went to have ice cream, it was really tasty, haha. My phone ran out of battery, so I couldn’t call you. Later, I bumped into Xixi and wanted to chat, so I ca to her house." Wen Nuan suppressed her tears, lying to Wen Qingyan.
Wen Qingyan chuckled indulgently, "When will you ever stop being so greedy? Alright, Nuannuan, give Leng Yan a call later, okay? He couldn’t reach you and was worried. He drove to our house looking for you and left disappointed."
"I got it, dad. You rest early too. I might stay at Xixi’s tonight, or else I’ll go back to the Leng Family." She agreed with a smile.
After hanging up, tears stread down her face.
Poor thing, today was so hard, and she didn’t even get to eat ice cream.
"Nuannuan, what really happened?" Tong Xi sat over, handing her tissues, "Not feeling well? Ran to have ice cream again, in such cold weather, be careful not get a stomachache."
"I didn’t eat, I lied to my dad." Wen Nuan wiped her tears, forcing a smile at Tong Xi.
Actually, she was very lucky. There was Tong Xi and her dad both caring so much for her.
"You haven’t eaten yet, have you? There’s instant noodles in the kitchen, cook it yourself. I can’t make boiled eggs, you know that. Let call Leng Yan and find out what’s with that bastard." Tong Xi pushed her, if it was about Ji Wei, she would’ve cursed him out long ago.
Damn n, could he really have gotten with Ji Wei, making Nuannuan so upset she doesn’t even want to go ho.
Wen Nuan snatched the phone, "I’ll call myself."
