"No need!" Li Peifeng’s eyes even carried a hint of pleading: "Let run by myself, let calm down a bit, otherwise I can’t say those words, really can’t say them, I completely cannot accept them. This is harm, harming , and harming you all, just thinking about it, I can’t bear it, alright?"
Just like that, the four girls watched him incoherently open the door, then swiftly turned and left.
"Click."
The door closed, the four of them looked at each other, and finally, soone said, "Let’s eat" and returned to the dining room to sit down, picked up their bowls and chopsticks, and absentmindedly continued eating.
One minute, five minutes, ten minutes...
Waiting is the pain second only to parting.
Twenty minutes passed, Wu Wenyue couldn’t help but call Li Peifeng, the others did not stop her, just quietly listened to the dial tone.
"Beep~beep~beep..."
"Hello, the number you’ve dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later..."
No answer.
Wu Wenyue was sowhat disappointed, but not surprised.
Zhao Qingge pursed her lips: "Let’s wait a bit more, he’ll be back in an hour, he can’t run to the ends of the earth, can he?"
Thirty minutes passed.
Xu Manning frowned deeply, picked up her phone and dialed Li Peifeng again, still no answer.
Thirty-five minutes passed, Huang Tianxuan also dialed, still no answer.
Fifty-five minutes passed, the most patient Zhao Qingge couldn’t hold back and made a fourth call to Li Peifeng.
Still no answer!
"Hello, the number you’ve dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later..."
Listening to the familiar ssage, the girls were all now sowhat impatient and restless.
"What if he’s not back in five minutes, after an hour?"
"Doesn’t matter how many hours, anyway, he must explain this tonight! Just afraid he’s gone to stay at a hotel."
"This is his ho, he will co back."
Zhao Qingge frowned and said, "Let’s clean up the table first, who knows when he’ll be back."
This suggestion was agreed upon by the others, after all, you can run but you can’t hide, the worst-case scenario, they would just spend this night waiting, and if a night wasn’t enough, they would stay up all night, Li Peifeng couldn’t not return ho, and there’s no reason to delay this until the eighth.
In fact, they were right, at 7:50 PM, more than two hours after Li Peifeng had run out, Zhao Qingge’s phone rang, caller: Li Peifeng.
"Ring ring ring~"
At this mont, the four of them were all in the living room watching TV, their attention not on the screen, but on their phones, all of them bombarding Li Peifeng on WeChat.
Zhao Qingge’s phone ringing also caught the attention of the other three, Huang Tianxuan was the first to mute the TV volu.
"Is it him?"
"Yes!"
Seeing the caller ID, Zhao Qingge looked a bit surprised, then a flash of excitent crossed her eyes, she quickly swiped to answer.
"Where are you? Why aren’t you back yet?"
Zhao Qingge imdiately voiced a slightly reproachful question, and the other three held their breath, waiting for the answer from the other end of the phone.
Wu and Xu were a bit apprehensive, could it be that after all this ti, Li Peifeng finally made up his mind but was too embarrassed to say it in person, so he left ho to convey it by phone?
Then why call Zhao Qingge’s phone and not ours? Did Li Peifeng change his mind? It shouldn’t be!
Or maybe the call was just to delay again, asking them for another hour?
In that brief mont, the minds of the girls turned many tis, all speculating about the purpose of Li Peifeng’s call.
"...Sorry, may I ask, what’s your relationship with the owner of this phone?"
The fact surprised everyone, the person speaking on the other end was not Li Peifeng, but a voice that was sowhat sharp.
"I am... his girlfriend!"
After answering, Zhao Qingge frowned: "Did he lose his phone? Did you pick it up?"
"Speakerphone! Speakerphone!"
The other three girls either whispered a reminder or mouthed the words, not even delving into why Zhao Qingge said she was Li Peifeng’s girlfriend, now wasn’t the ti to nitpick about those things, the most important thing was how Li Peifeng’s phone ended up in soone else’s hand.
Zhao Qingge quickly moved the phone away from her ear and pressed the speakerphone button, but the voice on the other end fell silent.
And through the amplified speaker volu, all four girls could vaguely hear the background noise on the phone, it was a very urgent, very anxious, very piercing, but very familiar sound.
"Woo-wee~ woo-wee~~"
"This is..."
The faces of the four girls gradually turned sour, with a bad premonition swelling in their hearts.
Zhao Qingge also panicked: "Why aren’t you speaking? Where’s the owner of the phone?"
"Ms. Zhao, please don’t get agitated first, you don’t have any heart-related illnesses, right?"
"No! Li Peifeng..."
The sharp voice imdiately turned steady, but the speech rate was fast: "Your boyfriend was in a car accident, now in the ambulance being rushed to Ningyuan County Hospital for ergency treatnt, his external injuries aren’t severe, his vital signs are stable, but he’s currently in a coma, according to the driver who caused the accident, it seems his head was hit, so his specific injuries can’t be determined yet."
"I don’t know his parents’ nas, couldn’t find their phone numbers, just because you were the last missed call, I returned it, if you have his parents’ contact, I suggest contacting them or direct relatives imdiately, and have them go to the county hospital to handle ergency procedures... did you hear clearly?"
