Zhong Qiaohui slapped her forehead and remembered, "You can't hear me. You can't hear me, so why did you call me?"
With that, she hung up on Gu Nuan.
Gu Nuan thought she must have put on her slippers and rushed over to continue talking, because from the way she sounded over the phone, it seemed like she was in a hurry to put on her shoes.
But after a while, Zhong Qiaohui didn't come.
The soundproofing here was good, the walls thick, and Gu Nuan couldn't hear anything happening around her. This was a situation she had never encountered before. Entering this castle made everyone like isolated islands, connected only by signals that seemed like they could be cut off at any moment.
Gu Nuan waited a while longer, and when Zhong Qiaohui still hadn't come, she got up to go next door and check. But then the phone on the table rang again.
She walked back and picked up the phone.
The voice on the other end was Tang Sili's.
