After hanging up on Gu Jiaojiao, Mu Ziquan eagerly called his fiancée.
This was the first time he had ever taken the initiative to call Xiao Jiyan, and the first time he had ever dialed the Xiao Family's number.
Although they both lived in the same residential compound, he hadn't seen his fiancée very often.
Before his injury, he was often on the frontier battlefields. Afterward, he was paralyzed and bedridden, refusing to see anyone.
This was especially true after numerous famous doctors reached the same conclusion: he would be paralyzed for life.
He fell into despair, unwilling to even take a single step out of the Mu Family's gates, let alone walk around the compound.
He nervously dialed the Xiao Family's number. It had only rung three times when someone picked up.
He heard a girl's crisp, clear voice on the other end. "Hello, who are you looking for?"
"Hello, this is Mu Ziquan. I'm looking for... Xiao... Yan," Mu Ziquan said, his voice full of apprehension.
