Chapter 2397: Chapter 2401: Right Now, I Really Want to Kill Him!
"Thank you," the girl expressed gratitude once more. "Luckily, you found me. Otherwise, trapped here with no one knowing, I might have been eaten by wild animals."
"It’s not that exaggerated," Ye Xingbei laughed and said, "Where’s your phone? Why didn’t you call for help?"
"The phone fell down the hillside." The girl pointed to the bottom of the slope.
"Did you come alone?" Ye Xingbei scrutinized her for a few moments, "From your voice, it seems like you’re not a local, right?"
"Yes, I’m not from here. I’ve come looking for someone," the girl said, "I came alone. My name is Yao Yaya, what’s yours?"
Ye Xingbei said: "My name is Ye Xingbei."
"Ye Xingbei? Stars in the night, North yes?" Yao Yaya asked.
Ye Xingbei nodded: "Right."
"That’s beautiful," Yao Yaya said, "Stars in the northern sky at night, it’s Polaris, isn’t it? It has a nice meaning as well."
Ye Xingbei pressed her lips into a smile, glancing around briefly: "This place is so remote, and it’s not a tourist spot. Why did you come here alone?"
"I came looking for someone," Yao Yaya said, "Originally, my boyfriend promised to come with me, but something came up at his company, and he couldn’t make it, so I had to come alone."
"Here’s your phone." Gu Junzhu handed a phone to her.
Yao Yaya took the phone, surprised, "This, isn’t this my phone?"
Gu Junzhu: "Of course it’s your phone."
Otherwise, why would he give it to her?
"But, but..." Yao Yaya pointed to the bottom of the slope, "My phone clearly fell to the bottom of the slope when I slipped down!"
She had fallen onto a ledge, blocked by the slope.
The phone, however, went straight past the ledge, landing at the bottom.
"Oh," Gu Junzhu said, "I just went down and retrieved it for you."
Yao Yaya: "... That, so quickly? You’re, you’re amazing!"
Ye Xingbei chuckled, "He’s trained in martial arts."
"Oh, I see!" Yao Yaya realized, "No wonder you’re so impressive! Thank you so much!"
She struggled to her feet, bowing deeply to Gu Junzhu, "Where do you work? I’ll send a banner to your unit when I go back, how about that?"
Gu Junzhu: "...No need."
"I insist! You..." She wanted to say more, but her phone suddenly rang.
She picked up the phone and glanced at it, answering, "Hello? Xiaxia?"
On the other end, Sang Xiaxia asked furiously, "Yaya, where are you?"
"I’m in Jinli Village," Yao Yaya replied, "Xiaxia, what’s wrong? Are you angry?"
"I’m not just angry; I’m about to explode!" Sang Xiaxia ranted, "Yaya, guess who I just ran into on the street? That scumbag Yun Jianshen! That scumbag said there was an emergency at his company, so he couldn’t accompany you to Jinli Town. He lied to you! He went to pick up Xiao Bai at the airport! That bastard! Scumbag! I’m so mad!"
"Xiaxia, what did you say?" Yao Yaya gripped her phone tightly, her face changing, "You said Yun Jianshen went to pick up Bai Jiaojiao at the airport?"
"Yes, exactly!" Sang Xiaxia ground her teeth, "Yaya, I asked around Yun Jianshen’s friends for you. That scumbag, he’s rekindled his old flame with Bai Jiaojiao! He’s cheating, two-timing, I really want to kill him right now!"
