"Phew..." Su Yue exhaled softly after finishing her water. She set the glass on the coffee table, then walked over and sat down on the sofa.
First, she reached out and patted the head of the stuffed bear sitting on the sofa. It was the same one Lin Li had won in a ring toss game back when they were in Qiongcheng.
Then, Su Yue picked up the phone she had tossed onto the sofa earlier.
'At this hour, Dad probably isn't asleep yet...'
Su Yue checked the time, then called her father, Su Chen.
RING... RING... RING...
The call went through, and it was answered in just a few seconds.
"Hello."
When the call connected, the clear, pleasant voice of a mature woman came through the phone.
Hearing the familiar voice, Su Yue thought she had dialed the wrong number. 'Why did Mom answer the phone?' she wondered, asking aloud, "Mom, how come you answered? Where's Dad?"
