Chapter 18 Waiting
When Cheng Yue returned home, it was just after twelve o'clock, Aunt Mei had already fallen asleep, and the room was pitch black.
He went upstairs directly, took a shower and lay on the bed, looking at his phone, it was 12:33.
When he was about to turn off the lights and go to sleep, he realized that he hadn't reported Bai Xiao's safety yet.
Cheng Yue was a bit repelled by the feeling of having to report the itinerary to others, but thinking that he had promised him when he left, he clicked on the unfamiliar number, saved it, and sent a message to that number: "I'm home , don't read it."
After posting, Cheng Yue turned off the desk lamp and decided to sleep.
5 minute has passed...
10 minute has passed...
15 minute has passed...
Cheng Yue frowned, unable to sleep.
...why hasn't he replied yet?
...Is your phone muted?
Cheng Yue took the phone over and looked at it - there was no mute, and indeed there was no reply.
He wouldn't fall asleep while waiting for his message, would he?
The time was getting closer, Cheng Yue stared at the time on the phone, watched it jump from 12:59 to 1:00, pursed his lips, and decisively turned off the phone.
Mr. Cheng, who has been in a high position for a long time, has not experienced this feeling of being let go by others for a long time. He knows that he should not care about it, but he still has a little bit of irritability, like an ant biting, insignificant, but it makes people feel uneasy. .
——What else, you will look at me?
Ah.
Cheng Yue rolled his eyes in his heart and forced himself to sleep.
Bai Xiao didn't intentionally not reply to the message.
He took a shower as soon as he got home, and just after he got out of the bathroom, the phone rang. He took the phone and looked at it, and there were four large characters on the screen:
Queen Mother above.
It was Bai Xiao's mother, Ms. Ye Xiangyi, who called.
Bai Xiao pressed the answer button, rubbed her hair with a towel, and said lazily, "Hello? Greetings to the empress~"
"Stay flat, Xiao Xiaozi~"
"Hey, hey, I treat you as my mother, but you treat me as a slave?"
"Huh? Any comments?"
"... How dare I have any opinions? Why are you so leisurely today, thinking of me?"
The person on the phone smiled and said, "I just finished the meeting today, so I'm fine. Let's see how you are doing."
"I'm fine. I finished filming the last movie, and I've been resting for the past few days." Bai Xiao took a basin while talking, and threw her underwear into it.
"Hmm... It's been a year and a half... I heard from Xiao Ye that your next movie will still be a male supporting role?"
"..." Bai Xiao poured water into the basin, "Is this the normal speed, okay? Playing more roles can improve your acting skills, so why worry?"
"You really don't want to leave," she sighed. "If your father hears it, you have to 'harden and hone'!"
"Isn't it time for my 'seal' to be lifted?" Bai Xiao poured some laundry detergent into the basin and said, "He can't go back on his promise for two years."
A few low laughs came from the phone: "Actually, he regretted it a long time ago, but he just refused to say it. It's been a long time since I saw you, and he misses you very much. How many times have I told him? Have your own ideas, let him not be so stubborn."
Bai Xiao was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Actually, I understand him quite well now, but I was too self-willed before."
"Eh...?" Ms. Ye Xiangyi looked surprised on the other side of the phone, "Why are you suddenly sensible?"
The phone rang suddenly, Bai Xiao took the phone away, clicked on the message just received - it was Cheng Yue.
"I'm home, don't read."
He looked at that short sentence and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Ms. Ye Xiangyi couldn't help guessing: "Isn't it a relationship?!"
...? ? ?
When Bai Xiao got nervous, his hand slipped, and the phone fell into the basin filled with water with a "crack", and lay comfortably on his underwear.
Bai Xiao: "..."
Haven't returned any message to Cheng Yue yet! ! !
Ten minutes later, Bai Xiaosheng stood in front of the mirror unrequitedly, his wet hair frizzing randomly, holding a hair dryer in one hand and a cell phone in the other.
However, instead of drying your hair, the hair dryer is blowing your phone.
I heard that after the mobile phone falls into the water, it can continue to be used after blowing it dry with a hair dryer... After blowing it for so long, it should be almost the same?
Bai Xiao finally put down the hair dryer and pressed the power button.
A few seconds later, the phone vibrated violently, and Bai Xiao waited expectantly.
After a few more seconds, the phone was as quiet as a chicken, completely shutting down.
Bai Xiao: "..."
Ahhh!I don't know if Cheng Yue is asleep!
God will kill me!
After confirming that the mobile phone is scrapped, Bai Xiao nestled on the bed helplessly, turned on the laptop, and sent a work email to his mother in the United States - this may be the fastest way to be seen.
Bai Xiao briefly explained the fact that the mobile phone had been killed in battle, and told her not to guess.
After sending the message, Bai Xiao rested her chin and became worried: I didn't talk about love, but I have a child... How should I explain this?
It didn't take long for Ms. Ye Xiangyi's reply to arrive: I have read it.
Bai Xiao: "..." Could it be an automatic reply?
