The night passed silently and peacefully.
When Ye Qianqian awoke, Shen Zhilie wasn't on the bed.
His side was empty. Ye Qianqian felt that something was amiss.
Was the guy still in a bad mood?
Ye Qianqian got out of bed and walked out. Shen Zhilie wasn't on the couch either.
When Ye Qianqian found the bathroom empty as well, she began to worry.
She didn't want to go back with him to see his parents. Why was the guy playing the disappearing act on her for that?
She looked around and called out, "Shen Zhilie!"
There was no reply.
Ye Qianqian ran back to the bedroom and retrieved her cell phone. She immediately called Shen Zhilie.
The line connected, and Shen Zhilie answered the call.
"Hello?" He sounded alert. There was a lot of background noise behind him.
When Ye Qianqian heard the sounds, she was silent for a moment before asking, "Where are you?"
