Ling Chuxia turned her face and, with effort, reached out to grab the phone. She glanced at the screen where the words "Young Master" were flashing before she suddenly snapped back to reality.
She had almost forgotten that Shi Che, who was on a business trip, would occasionally call her, and it was usually around this time.
Ling Chuxia knew she was weak, but she didn't want Shi Che to sense anything was amiss. She took a few deep breaths, cleared her throat, and tried to make her voice sound normal before she slid her finger across the screen to answer the call.
"Hello——"
Although Ling Chuxia tried to control her voice, it was immediately detected by Shi Che. His voice was as deep as ever, "What's wrong with your voice?"
Ling Chuxia was taken aback, not expecting her condition to be perceived so quickly. She thought Shi Che was just vigilant, not realizing how acute he was too. No wonder every lie she told was eventually uncovered.
