"Go and give Qiao Xin a call, ask her where she is, and just say... say that you understand what she means, that you want to set her free."
As soon as Lu Chen took out his phone, he hesitated. Qiao Xin had already stopped responding to him; if he made this call now, there was no guarantee that she wouldn't just turn on him!
"Don't worry, turn on speakerphone, and I'll listen to what she has to say too."
Lu Chen glanced at Qiao Yi's confident demeanor and had no choice but to comply with her instructions.
The phone rang twice before being picked up, but Qiao Xin on the other end didn't speak; there was only the sound of breathing coming through the receiver.
Qiao Yi poked Lu Chen forcefully, prompting him to tighten up and hastily said,
"Xinxin, where are you? Why aren't you returning my messages?"
Qiao Yi nearly face-palmed at his words. Couldn't this guy be a bit more tactful! With such a direct question, how do you expect her to answer!
