Chapter 2015 - 118: Sounding East and West
She sat there for half a day, then picked up her phone to call Jin Bo again.
Jin Bo answered, his eyes still on the document in his hand, inspecting line by line. His voice carried an electric, magnetic quality, "Missing me?"
Yan Xiaoxi said, "A bit, are you still not done?"
Jin Bo glanced at the thickness, "Just a few pages left, I’ll finish soon."
Yan Xiaoxi heard "I’ll finish soon," and kept the call going, "Have you... have you felt any discomfort in your chest these days?"
Jin Bo sat there, long fingers pinching a thin sheet of paper, rustling as he flipped it over, "Yes."
Yan Xiaoxi asked nervously, "How does it feel uncomfortable? Is it another rejection reaction?"
Jin Bo sat there, listening to the thick emotion in her voice, feeling quite pleased, relaxing his originally tense brows.
He looked up and gave Fang Zheng standing aside a signal to go out.
Fang Zheng took a look, perceptively exited the room, considerately closing the door behind him.
Jin Bo looked at the closed door, speaking lowly, "It’s not a rejection reaction, just discomfort."
Yan Xiaoxi furrowed her brows upon hearing, "Then is there a decent hospital nearby? Maybe you should go and check?"
Jin Bo pushed away the document in his hand, "Doctors are useless."
Yan Xiaoxi, "..."
She’s worried to death, and he’s speaking so leisurely, utterly exasperating!
"Why?"
Jin Bo stood up, suddenly feeling hot all over, took off his suit, hung it on the rack beside, loosened his tie, and swung it lightly, hanging it next to him, "Doctors can’t do anything."
Yan Xiaoxi heard and became anxious, "Doctors can handle rejection reactions, but there’s no way for discomfort?"
Jin Bo, "Really none."
Yan Xiaoxi suppressed her emotions, but desperately wanted to cry, feeling overwhelmingly wronged for a moment, "Then what can be done?"
Jin Bo listened to the tone, didn’t dare tease her more, "I need to find you."
Yan Xiaoxi was momentarily stunned, "Find me?"
Jin Bo’s voice went hoarse, "Since last night’s dream until now, my heart hasn’t been comfortable, missing you desperately."
Yan Xiaoxi, "..."
She worried about him for half a day, and in the end he was just messing around for half a day.
Angrily swore, "Jin Bo, you damn bastard!"
Then hung up, adding Jin Bo to the blacklist.
Jin Bo listened to the busy tone, paused for a while, hung up, and called back, only to hear the line was in use!
Angry?
Upon reflection, it seemed he might indeed have been a bit too much.
Wanted to call her to apologize, tried several times, but the line was always in use.
Could it be that in her anger, she went to call an old flame instead?
Jin Bo stood there, thinking of Lu Yi, feeling extremely uncomfortable!
He’s fine having been part of Xiaoxi’s past, but don’t think about touching a single finger in the future!
He called Fang Zheng, "Check who Yan Xiaoxi is on the phone with now."
Fang Zheng, "Alright, Mayor Jin."
Fang Zheng quickly went to check with the communication department, Miss Yan wasn’t on the phone with anyone now, he was curious, then checked the call records from an hour ago, it was with Mayor Jin!
There was also a missed call from Lu Yi.
But Miss Yan didn’t answer it.
Could it be because of this call that Miss Xiaoxi and Mayor Jin are having a spat?
After finding out, he called Jin Bo, "Mayor Jin, Yan Xiaoxi hasn’t made any calls in the last half hour."
Jin Bo, "..."
Not on the phone with anyone means she must have added him to the blacklist?
Can’t be, that ruthless!
He opened WeChat, found Yan Xiaoxi, tried sending an emoji, still able to send, not blocked yet, thought for a bit, lay down on bed, long fingers typing, "Are you mad?"
