Not long after leaving the Xue Family, Lin Xiao received a call from Su Qingning. He smiled when he saw her name pop up on his phone. It seemed their trip to Jinhai City two days prior had significantly deepened her feelings for him. After all, since they had last parted ways, she had never been the one to call first.
Lin Xiao quickly answered.
"Have you arrived?" Su Qingning's gentle voice came through the phone.
"Yeah, I just got here. I was about to call you when your call came in. We must be on the same wavelength," Lin Xiao said with a laugh.
Su Qingning retorted coyly, "Humph, smooth talker."
Lin Xiao chuckled. "Honey, did you miss me?"
"Not at all!" she hurriedly denied.
But despite her words, the playfully coy tone in her voice told Lin Xiao everything he needed to know—yes, she missed him.
Lin Xiao sighed, feigning grievance. "Honey, you're so heartless! To think I missed you so much..."
"Humph, I don't believe you!"
